/vr/ - Retro Games

>>1570129
Personally, I don't even consider them games.

Anybody else?

>>1570130
That depends on the specific title. There are eroge of a large variety of genres, not everything was an adventure like nowadays.

As for translated titles:
Rance series is a good start for classic ero RPG.
Pia Carrot and True Love for dating sims.
Yu-No for point and click adventrues.

>>1570130
I consider them visual novels.

>>1570179
Visual novel should be reserved for those without any gameplay. Just pure text and images with no way of interfering.

enjoy

>>1570129
>artstyle
I think you mean titties.

>>1570129
Yes! Nocturnal Illusion is one of my favourite

If anyone want to play with the link >>1570224 provided, don't play the renewal one.... It's like they put the nice old graphics through a vaseline filter

From the same site, True Love, May Club and Seasons of the Sakura are pretty good

Metal and Lace
Knights of Xentar

>>1570148
>Yu-No
This nigga knows how it is

>>1571538
It's really not much of an h-game though. You get like 30 minutes of sex total in a game that takes about 50 hours.

>>1570203
Or very minimal gameplay like Shikkoku no Sharnoth.

>>1571545
It's true, it's still a really good adventure game though. To be honest I'd rather it wasn't an hentai game so people could take it more seriously, it really deserves way more attention than it got. Also that epilogue fucking brings the whole game down.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CksDGYA9DUQ

The music still is fucking great though.

>>1571624
It may have been nice if they included an option to skip the h-scenes like in the Saturn version. Some of them were ridiculously out of place and detracted from the rest of the game.

>>1571785
Well I didn't mind them enough to want to skip them. What I mean is, from the get-go I wish this project didn't start as an hentai game, I wish Hiroyuki Kanno would have gone "legit" game designer and make a proper adventure game instead of trying to pander to horny otakus. The best parts in the game were definitely not of sexual nature, although the flirtatious nature of the main character did lead to some pretty funny dialogues.
I'm pretty sure that Kanno respected eroge as a proper medium, but still he deserved better, he should have been making proper adventure games. But still I don't know the fellow, maybe he was doing exactly what he wanted. RIP

>>1572125

Well, he actually worked on some games without sexual content (or just limited to some nude or clevage scene). I think the only one with translation is Eve Burst Error, not sure about the other games.

>>1572192
Wasn't Eve Burst Error orignially an eroge?

http://strawpoll.me/1582876

It's time to settle this.

>>1571624
This is beautiful, all these pictures of babies are creeping me out, still.

>>1574243
There is no sex with biologically underdeveloped characters in the game (there is in the shitty anime).
Yu-no's infancy doesn't last long.

>>1570224

Everybody go here and play Divi-dead. Sure the translation of the sex scenes are hilarious but otherwise it is pretty gosh darn sweet.

Almost all its plot twists have this great fore-shadowing to them and the sex scenes themselves just contribute to this creepy occult atmosphere that it just revels in. Might be a bit too much clicking to find the place where story events will trigger though.

If you're interested in retro eroge I recommend getting into the PC98 as that's the platform were most of them were released on and which defined the styles with its technical limitations. Only a small number of titles are translated but there are plenty of games that don't require Japanese such as Night Slave.
There are several site with lists and descriptions of the games.
The PC88 is interesting for the even older school but is less documented

Bravesoul was Ok. At least it featured actual gameplay

>>1574214
Miwako. Man, she was always so sad, it got me right in the feels

Just looks at this picture ;_;

>>1574270
>there is in the shitty anime
How worth is it to watch that thing, even if just for fan curiosity?

>>1570179
>>1570203
Am I the only one who hates the term "visual novel"? Just call them Japanese adventure games.

>>1576494
It's only four episodes long so it won't hurt you much, some parts are amusing. The problem is that it alters and ruins the story and the sex scenes are generally very short.

>>1576512
I don't like how it gets used since most so called visual novels are indeed simple adventures with regular interaction.
Non-interactive stories exist and visual novel is a solid term of describing it. The alternative name was digital comic.

Dare you go in?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tA54Gl3QfyQ

I really want to play YU-NO but it scares me how long each playthrough could be. Is it filled with bad endings?

>>1576783
It's effectively one story, it's the whole thing that takes 30-50 hours including the prologue and epilogue.
You regularly have to jump back and pick a different option but your inventory remains the same.
The worst case if you start with a route that can't be completed without an item from another so you either have to bind a save crystal for a long time or repeat the whole route at a later point.
You can hold CTR to skip through dialogs to speed things up when you already heard them.

>>1570224
thank you for this!

>>1571624
I'm not a fan either but why would you care if some people don't take it seriously or find it problematic if it has sexual content in it? In non-nukige games the ero is just there to grab some attention, just like action scenes; it's not really an end. The obstacle here is a cultural one.

Also in general ADV/VNs/eroge don't get a lot of attention compared to other things. While it may be true that some will be put off by the sexual content, I don't think it's the only reason, I wonder if it has to do with reading.

>>1576783
You can always use a walkthrough, TLWiki has one. Altough the item mechanic plus jewel saves makes you think quite a bit when you reach a "dead end", that is, if you just follow your heart and play the game blindly. Going for 100% by yourself must be a pain though.

>>1579425
Once you understand how the junction indicator and map work and earn a few extra jewels it's easy sailing for most part.
It's useful to know that even if you spend all your jewels you can bring up the map and jump to a save by restarting.

>>1570130
I don't consider the entire adventure genre to be videogames. They are interactive movies/storybooks

>>1578776
What you're saying is absolutely right, there is no inherent problem with it, however there comes some situations where the sex just feels shoehorned in, to the detriment of the story and the characters' motivations. Luckily Yu-No tackles this issue very well and there's very few situations where it just feels forced down the player just as a reward system or to force an ending/closure. There are segments where you can't help but sigh at "oh, she craves your dick as well huh, well that's interesting" and you roll your eyes a bit, knowing full well that you're playing an eroge.
To be pretty clear though I'm not coming down on the eroge genre, this sort of shit has its place, but I just get the feeling that Yu-No would be a better game if its initial planning didn't involve making an eroge, and just making an adventure game that might have some sex scenes, instead of an eroge that forces to fuck every single female character that you talk to more than 5 minutes with.

I'm just being nitpicky though, it's a great game and I recommend everyone playing it, regardless of your feelings towards the genre.

>and just making an adventure game that might have some sex scenes, instead of an eroge that forces to fuck every single female character that you talk to more than 5 minutes with

I don't think this is the case with YU-NO or the majority of scenarioge; or in other words, the ones not focused on sex.
You can check out this interview as an example of creating an eroge.
http://archive.foolz.us/jp/thread/11712971
But I agree that some sex scenes might seem out of place.

The PC-98's limited colors and heavy dithering give those games a washed out, antique look, like hand drawn cell animation. That's where the appeal comes from.

Windows 95 h-games use the same art style but look like ass with their smoother graphics.

>>1580453
I think that depends on the game.

>>1580663
Either one of these portray best succubus just fine.

>>1580663
>>1580665
Dear god my dick

This scene from the opening of Amy' Fantasy is good. I like the art in this game, though the translation on the asenheim site leaves something to be desired.

I really like this art style (I'm hoping it's ok to post this on this board, it seems less explicit than a Succubus guzzling semen)

>>1570148
>True Love for dating sims.
Mah nigga. That was my first, and the only dating sim I ever liked.

The only other H-game I liked is The Sagara Family but that's not retro.

>>1580970
You mean yogurt.

>>1580985
Of course how silly of me

I saved this the other day.

>>1570726
>Nocturnal Illusion
That game was nightmare fuel for me
That fucking ending

I remember going back to whatever channel got it from on DC++ and freaked the fuck out in all caps like the 13 year old i was

>>1576206
How was it?

Grave Soul was one of those hentai games that looked cool it was like 1gb and that was out of the question to download with 56k

>>1581031

It's from Possessioner (PC-98)

>>1580981
>This entire post
are you me?

i did like other H games though come on man Sengoku Rance?

>>1576206
>>1581047
The source of the blue haired NSFW banner!

>>1581047
Didn't really age that well, it's one hell of a clunky Diablo clone.

Drawn by the guy who does a lot of Rei Ayanami porn though, which explains the main heroines' look.

>>1576206
That a Hirameki release?
>tfw I own a mint copy of Ever17

>>1582224
Hirameki didn't release eroge.

>>1579818
I think it's a must play as well, though I believe people should be warned about the somewhat jarring second half and the bizarre ending.

>>1581047
Get a sword called the fastest. You could solo the whole game.

>>1570130
Some are games and some aren't. Adventure games are games by definition (they're point-and-clicks for the most part), while visual novels are digital picturebooks.

>>1582393
>(they're point-and-clicks for the most part),
For retro Japanese adventures the most common method is selection from an instruction list. Objects can be picked from an additional list and not by pointing on the visualization.
Earlier ones used a text parser.
Alternative was a multiple choice selection.

>>1582407
Yes, the Adventure game genre. As you know, point-and-clicking is just an evolution of the command-picking interface, which is an evolution of the parser. It's equally common in Western and Japanese adventure games.

As both of us clearly know.

>>1570130
Agreed.

>>1582419
I've never seen a Japanese game with a SCUMM like interface as it was popular with non-Japanese adventures.

>>1582534

There is Makyouden on PC-98, although the interface is more similar to 90's Sierra adventures.

It's been a while since I played it but Desire is an experience. If you've ever wanted to hear someone make Whitesnake references in bed, there's that.

>>1570129
Divi Dead is awesome.
True Love 95 is still the best.

>>1582807
>>1574941

Divi-dead so good. Gotta replay it someday to get the rest of the endings.

>>1583347

Be prepared to see A LOT of empty hallways though

>>1583349

Those sex scenes though. Weird how the translation is great otherwise.

>>1583352

This guy's reveal...

>>1582779
Imagine this song playing while you are eating out a girl's pussy or having your cock sucked

HERE I GO AGAIN ON MY OWN
GOING DOWN THE ONLY ROAD I HAVE EVER KNOWN

>>1583347
Divi-dead's so bloody gloomy. The mood throughout is top notch. I hated the end though, don't know if it was the translation that got shafted or if the plot is just broken but I remember having no idea what happened in the last chapter(s).

>>1581046
>That fucking ending
The ending? How about the shed? >>1576623 Damn, that freaked me the fuck out.
Still, Nocturnal Illusion has to be one of the best stories in a game. And for the people that criticize in Yu-No how the h content ruins the game somewhat, it's a lot worse in here. Or maybe the story is just that much better.

>>1581047
It is painfully clunky and dated. It feels like it would be home on a Windows 3.11 machine. The classic pixel art is timeless. If you're playing without a guide, a lot of things like party management, and plot progression feel arbitrary. Interesting if treating as a porn gaming relic.

>>1584082

Well what ending did you get for Divi-dead? As I understand it of the 3 possible one is shit, one gives some closure but leaves A LOT of unanswered questions and in one Clarissa explains it all.

>>1584082

Double posting but that's what I liked about Divi-dead, how the sex scenes actually somewhat tie into the story and contribute to the game's dark and occult atmosphere. I wonder if Bible Black took any inspiration from it. WOuldn't surprise me though if it's just completely unknown in Japan and only has any notoriety in the west because it's one of few sexy VNs that got translated in the 90s

>>1584082
I'll bite: what's so crazy about the shed?

>>1585575
>Clarissa explains it all

>>1585582
I got bored so I went and checked Erogamescape.

It has a score of ~65 with 62 data points.
Bible Black has a score of ~78 with 232 data points.

Divi Dead was made by C's Ware, which I think had some popularity from Eve Burst Error, so it probably isn't super obscure.

But yeah, most of the US localized VNs at that time wasn't considered great... e.g True Love was one of those games that Japan just saw as being a shitty ripoff of better games.

That being said... Nocturnal Illusion sure seems to be a bit of an outlier... score of 80, data points 48.

>>1585593
Girl fucking a demon (who is a representation of her elder brother... somehow)

>>1585619

>>1585623

At least call it a spreadsheet.

>>1585619
>>1585575
I am no remembering the episode where she starts sick and has her face hovering over a bowl of soup while wearing PJ's.

>That cleavage
>That 90s boner

>>1570224
Holy shit thanks, I've been wanting to play Gloria again fora long time

>>1584082
>The ending?
Yeah sorry I was looking at

>>1570224
and the game I was talking about was really Fatal Relations, my memory was confused. That game had the nightmare fuel ending

I'm sure I've forgotten most of Nocturnal Illusion now, I remember the mermaid, and the mistress and my favorite waifu, the white haired girl who I think was a werewolf but you settled down with her and had a baby

>>1586598
Well, gotta love a woman who will go down on you to... uh, restore your life force.

>>1585623
That reminds me, addendum to the Divi-Dead score, apparently even the Japanese people who played the game were all "I love the atmosphere but I have no idea what the fuck was going on", so I guess "bad translation" isn't the only reason for people being confused on the game.

Are there any dating sims/hentai games/whatever you wanna call them for physical release on Western systems?

I played Pia Carrot on Saturn imported because it's too annoying to emulate but I can't understand that shit.

>>1587105
I think Bible Black got an official release in the U.S.

>>1587179
Yeah but does Bible Black count as retro?

Do these help lessen the pain of being a perma-virgin?

>>1587224

No, but if you learn japanese to play more of them, they will open the path to /wizardry/.

>>1587105
>>1587179
Kana Little Sister was originally released in 1999 but localized in 2002. It's your preference whether it counts as retro.

>>1587074
Yeah Fatal Relations is the one where the whole family dies in a house fire and the only ones to get out it are the mc and the maid or something like that.

>my favorite waifu, the white haired girl who I think was a werewolf

Mein neger. Sari, I think the name was. She's a vampire, tho.

>>1585575
I've been racking my head but I just can't remember anything other than not following the end at all. Something about a cave under the school and a couple of the characters had some body paint and a thunderstorm... It's in bad need of a replay,and now that I know that it's supposed to make sense I might just do that.

>>1587089
Shit, really? You did make sense of it, though, so it can't be that bad?

>>1576623
>>1576623
>>1584082

>>1587574
I'm a different Anon.

At this point of time, it's been so long since I've played Divi-Dead that the only thing I remember is terribly localized sex scenes where the lady implores you to thrust your throbbing eggplant into her.

Still the last time I played it, which is like what, 15 years ago? I didn't get the story.

>>1587105
When you say Systems do you only count consoles or something? Quite a few of them have been localized on PC.

As for consoles... Bloody Bride for the PSX had a fan-translation I believe. Same with Pia Carrot on the PC Engine FX.

No official releases that I can think of... well, I think the PSP has a bunch of commercially released Otome games...

True Love 95 and Seasons of the Sakura hold a special place in my heart.

Hell, I might replay both just for the experience.

>>1587192
It was released in mid 2000 but there was a version for DVD players which can be considered a retro platform.

>>1587745
Fuck man why don't we ever get the good fuck sims over here, maybe I wanna sit on my couch and take in the culture.

>>1587935
Consoles in general didn't get eroge due to licensing limitations. The PC-FX was an exception due to its failure.
PC98 and Windows were also technically better suited than contemporary consoles.

>>1570129
You say you like the art style, yet that poor art has been horribly raped by some shitty filter

>>1588135
It could just be the non-integer scaling coupled with jpg compression.

>>1587782
careful where you get true love
I was exactly in your place like last year and downloaded it to nostalgia and that shit had dark comet complete with lazy log files found by my av

I was like does the person who put this is even care after all these years

dragon knight seems interesting idk why no one has translated it

>>1587782
>>1588453
http://tss.asenheim.org/

No need to download them.

>>1588487
It was released in english as Knights of Xentar.

>>1588549

that was dragon knight 3, it's a 4 game series

supposedly it is also censored

>>1586598
Someone explain this. She was the most unappealing to me mostly due to her age.

>>1588623

It's actually a trilogy, the fourth game started a different series and it's an SRPG.

>>1583947
What was it about 1970s England that created these bands?

The only VN games I've played were X-Change and Critical Point and X-Change didn't really have a plot other than a male character becomes female.

Critical Point was really good, though I hated how the story changed depending on what path you went. It gave me plenty of feels.

>>1588694
Were there any sequels to Dragon Knight 4?
I only played a bit of 1 which seemed like a simple first person dungeon crawler.

>>1588797
How sexy were cleaning those beakers for ten minutes? Got me hot and bothered.

In a bad way.

>>1588805

No, I think they suffered the same destiny as the Doukyuusei sequels, and Elf is too busy working on crappy visual novels.

>>1588859
Are there any long running eroge series aside from Rance?

>>1588912

Yes, not that many, and I think Rance is the only one that has been on the market for 20+ years and they are still making games. Can Can Bunny has like 7 games (9 if you count Primo and 5 1/2), but the last game was released in 2000. The Baldr series might be another candidate, but the first game was released in 1999, it's not that old.

>>1588912
Lightning Warrior Raidy?

>>1588997
Raidy had a ten year gap between the original two games and their remakes and the third part came out even later. I'm not sure if that can count as a long running series.

>>1587745
>throbbing eggplant

Those cats who translated C's Ware games had way too much fun. I imagine how cringe-worthy the source material must be when you think rhyming like this is a good idea. That whole scene in Gloria is hilarious.

>>1589021
Oops forgot to spoiler that. But then this thread isn't exactly SFW.

>>1588656
She's the only one who doesn't have a back story you aren't a part of so it's kinda the default choice.

>>1588969
>Can Can Bunny
Cocktail Soft also had Pia Carrot from 96 onward though the newest title, Prince Pia Carrot, seems to be a gender swap and all ages.

>>1587568
Yep that's the ending
Totally replaying all these games btw and some I never played like knights of xentar and may club, I dropped both just abluttle after starting

>>1588656
>mostly due to her age.
That's why I like her though.

>You will never get Nocturnal Illusion working on Windows 7

>>1589021

My keks
When does the search begin? I'm at my first night and now Miwako is being a qt and offering to talk in case I cant sleep

Man I was such a sucker for these girls when I was younger

Is anyone else replaying some of the games?

Isn't Nocturnal Illusion that game where you have to visit EVERY ROOM before the game lets you proceed, EVERY TIME?

>>1590287
Pretty much, but most similar titles did pretty much the same thing i.e. go everywhere until something triggers.

>>1590407
Is that Tokimeki Check-in?

Good times. I remember when SA reviewed that. Also the maid was boring

>>1590431
It is
>letting the old guys bang that bitch in the onsen

I've seen Yu-No mentioned several times before in various, far-between threads, but never been able to find an answer to this question: How the fuck was I meant to be able to solve that clock puzzle? I ended up having to look up an LP on youtube for that shit, it was just fucking insane. Had nothing to do with the current time, the time where you were meant to be places, the 400 years thing, or anything else I could think of. Was the combination ever mentioned anywhere or was I just stupid?

>>1590470
The answer is in the opening.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGxwH6-_a7E

Any all lesbian h games?

>>1590497
Nothing retro apparently.
http://vndb.org/g1932?fil=tagspoil-0.tag_inc-1932;m=0;o=a;s=rel
Night Slave is predominantly lesbian.

>>1581031
dithering sure is awesome

>>1590519

>>1590497
>>1590512
I thought there are actually more retro lesbian VNs than modern ones actually.

But I can't think of any "pure" 100% lesbian ones though. Even the predominantly lesbian ones usually have a scene or two of EVIL MEN RAPIST.

Anyway here are some PC-98 ones (I think)
Girl 2
Raidy
Filsnown.

Take it to /h/

>>1590570
There are probably pure lesbian ones in the undocucmented wastes of the PC88.
In some cases it's hard to draw the line between a regular strip game and a lesbian one.

Popuri Limited 8.8k is one I can attest as lesbian. It's one of those rock-paper-scissor games.

>>1590287
And check everything three times

Dont bully these games they're old

>>1590037
>playing renewal

Disgusting.

>>1590570
You remind me I should finish Filsnown. About lesbians, I think there are many more games where the MC is male and he's surrounded by females.
Only PC98 lesbian games I can add to the list are File 0 Ghost Killer and Persiom.

>>1590649
Yeah, male PC + female cast is the most common and still remains so today.

Just saying that the ratio of lesbian VN stuff compared to the standard set-up is way higher in the past, IMO. Guess Yuri VNs don't sell very well or something.

>>1590037
Why the fuck you're playing Renewal? They replaced the beautiful graphic to this shit

>>1590649
Persiom is PC-98 now?

Anyone played Runaway City or Three Sisters Story?

>>1590790
Runaway City has a pretty nifty plot twist that's almost self aware of what the game is.
3 Sisters has a Sierra style Bad End that doesn't hit until MUCH MUCH later.

>>1589472
You can use the engine that emulates it. It doesn't support voices from renewal though.

>>1588546
Damn, man. How does this even work? Is it an emulator that runs in the browser?

>>1588715
>crisps

>>1590648
What's the difference? I thought the Renewal version was better?

>>1591140
Russian dude manage to recreate the basic engine for all those games in HTML5.

Might be talking out of my ass, though, I just skimmed the FAQs on his site.

>>1591152
Renewal's graphics were "updated" so they look washed and plain. On the other hand it does have voices, so that's a plus.

>>1591163
Can you give me a comparison screenshot? I played renewal and thought it looked good. Then again, I'm a fan of filters.

>>1591174
Would have preferred to take my own screenshots but a bit busy right now.

I even used an image from earlier in the thread, hah.

In any case the difference is very noticeable. It IS still a matter of preference, but the new graphics just look wrong to me.

>>1591236
>those backgrounds

Yeah, I see what you mean. I think the character sprite itself looks good in both versions, but the background in the bath looks very different.

I'll replay the original version at some point.

>>1580663
>>1580665
Apparently this is worksafe but a slight nipple isn't.

>>1591247
>underestimating the society-destroying power of women's mammaries' nipple

anon pls

you can show entire boobs and still be worksafe, but if the nipple even so much as accidentally slips you got a scandal

>>1590407
>>1590431
>>1590432

I'm downloading this game. From the comments on erogedownload it seems this game has problems with audio. Did you guys experience that? Is there a fix available?

>>1591285
I haven't played it in years but I had no issues back then, running Windows 98.

>>1590476

Oh my fucking god, I can't believe that. Thank you for showing me, though. I don't know whether to feel stupid or mad.

>>1580970
Why delete the post and not just the image?

>>1591341

I've been looking up VNs as of late and I'm quite confused by the multiple versions that were released. YU NO seems to have quite a bunch.

Can you tell me which is the best version? As in, no censorship, no cut content, with voices if possible, translated?

>>1589021
>>1585575
There are other posts deleted too.
Come on janny, some of them were spoilered.
You could just delete the image.

>>1591372
Yes, but why not just deleting the image?

>>1591372
I'm starting to think there should be a NSFW checkmark in addition to spoiler.

Anyway, YU-NO is great. Here is a walk-through spoiler free:

>>1591247
I know right?

>>1590648
>>1590674
I already played Nocturnal Illusions so many years ago, and I didn't even know what Renewal even was or that it existed until this thread, that emulator site has the graphics as simple switches and i turned it on

It's not that bad, it's like those filters VisualBoy Advance had to smooth out the pixels, I can definitely admit that the backgrounds are different

Does Renewal have anything else different?
>>1590952
I didn't hear voices on the site that's a real shame if there's anything else missing I'll probably look to actually install and play a copy

>>1591380
Good idea
That means it will be done 5 years from now

Hope they didn't get banned, they were on topic

Where can I download YU-NO?

>>1591536
I'd also like to know. I'm kind of at a loss. Not sure if the Fuwanovel version is the best one...

>>1591536
There's a spoiler a few posts above yours that contains a site that most certainly has it.

>>1591557

I downloaded it from that site, and when I tried to open it, it said a file was corrupted, or something along those lines.

Spoonfeeding:

http://erogedownload.com/downloads/yu-no/
Fuwanovel just compiles the things. It's not like they changed something (I guess)

Remember applying the patches. If there's any problem use applocale, etc.

>>1591573

It says it can't open it as archive.

>>1591582
I need more information and screen-cap or something.

>>1591589

When I try to open the file, it says, "Can not open file 'C:\Users\Owner\Downloads\[Fuwanovel] YU-NO v2.torrent' as archive"

>>1591596
D-do you have utorrent or something right?

>>1591606

I downloaded it from the sites that were listed.

>>1591362

I can't help you that much, I just got the one from erogedownload. I don't think it has any censorship, but I skip ero scenes anyway.

>>1591536
>>1591545

You can get it from erogedownload, the actual downloading mechanism there is a complete pain in the ass, but they never have any duds like fuwanovel does.

>>1591609
Ok, I have utorrent (qBittorrent is said to be a better option) and I don't have any problem opening the file.

Also, you can use jdownloader with erogedownload.

>>1591573
>Spoonfeeding
cut that out this isn't /a/

In fact so far I've seen nothing but encouragement to play games on here just so others can share the same enthusiasm for games that are nostalgic since the libraries are so spread out outside the Sega and Nintendo consoles

>>1591638

OK, when I click on "AI5ENG", it says "the game is not installed. Please install the game to proceed".

>>1591748
You have to mount the file with daemon tools I guess.

Use Regedit and look for those keys on the pic.

>>1591573
Fuwanovel does stupid shit like removing readme.txt files which sometimes contains important information concerning topics like bugs in the fantranslations etc so that they can claim credit for themselves and half of their games have problems because instead of proper installation they just zip up their folders and upload that.

>>1591840
The good news is you can
The bad news is, well, play the game.

>>1591903
Suuuuure it wasn't~

>>1591898

>>1591921
I dunno.

I think Miyazaki was talking about how the industry became made up of people who liked the pandering shit and kept running with it. He was also commenting how many characters today don't resemble actual people, even by cartoon standards or some shit.

I can't remember all the details, but I was chuckling because I know it probably made certain people at /a/ mad as hell.

How much sex is in YU-NO?

>>1591929
And if he said that he isn't wrong.
Miyazaki always felt very outside from the anime world, to me at least, his stuff is just so different from what's out there that it even almost feels insulting calling it anime.

>>1591929
I think the best way to have fanservice is by having actual content backing it. To the point where the content beats the fanservice at being interesting.

Plenty of older anime had great-looking characters of all sexes. Even my normalfag friends would tell me how much of a hot slut Bulma was. I don't think it's an otaku thing, but when it became exclusively about that... Yeah.

For an example of a good fanservicey video game, see Skullgirls. It's one of the best fighting games I've ever had. People stigmatize it and are pleasantly surprised when they actually play it.

>made certain people at /a/ mad as hell

That's great.

>>1591948
Very few and too far between.
It's a really good game, and the few sex scenes that do exist have a really good build-up for the most part, but if you just want to play the game for spanking material, it's not what the game is built for.
It's more of an Adventure game that also happens to have sex scenes.

>>1591950
>>1591952

Found it.

http://en.rocketnews24.com/2014/01/30/ghiblis-hayao-miyazaki-says-the-anime-industrys-problem-is-that-its-full-of-anime-fans/

I dunno if it actually made /a/ mad, I'm just saying I could see it happening.

>>1591958

So, don't play it if I want to rub one off?

What are some good retro hentai games with lesbian sex?

>>1591972
You'll lose your boner even before you've get to see a single tittie.
The game is huge dude, 50 hours.

Don't get me wrong, the sex scenes are pretty hot, but if rubbing one off is your only motivation for playing the game you might as well be playing something else.

>>1591967
>“If you don’t spend time watching real people, you can’t do this, because you’ve never seen it.”

100% true.

A great writer in my country once said: you must live before you write. Anything else is soul-less.

>>1591523
>I didn't hear voices on the site that's a real shame if there's anything else missing I'll probably look to actually install and play a copy
My main problem is that it uses renewal to work as seen in pic related.
I would love it if they could make the engine use everything from the original but add voices from renewal, it'd be an ultimate version.
Anyway, doesn't any compatibiliy mode work for the original? If not, then I guess I'll play it online.

>>1591978
Pro Lesring.
Not really that good, but it's old, in english and available at that one site.

>>1591983
The problem is that otaku culture and video games, in general, are not oriented towards realism. Just as a mean of escapism, indulgence and fun.

>>1591998
There's two sides to the realism thing, though. You can have realistic characters in a world with magic and unicorns and shit.

>>1591998
A pity. Even a bit of realism adds so much immersion to the work.

I can't stand watching movies anymore. When I can pick out what's wrong with it, I just can't enjoy myself anymore. It's just stupid.

I suppose I gotta start exploring older anime and manga if I actually want to have fun. I was thinking about picture related because I love aircraft. Also thought about Black Jack, the doctor.

Is Eve: Burst Error any good?

>>1592015
But, don't get me wrong, I just said that they aren't so focused in realism as, for example, Dostoevsky or Tolstoy. You can get realism with recent works of fiction in this industry. The problem is that they aren't centered on it, in other words, they are willing to sacrifice these aspects to create other situations that aren't so believable, in order to entertain the reader/player (eg., Harem or Shounen fights, or common tropes in RPGs). Also you have to take into account that they want to sell too. So if some shit sells they will keep making it.
This is just my opinion, though.
>>1592025
It has good score on EGS.

>>1592025
Do you like the idea of playing as a girl?

>>1592042
Not him, but I think we all know what his answer is.

>>1592037
And I forgot one of the most important aspects that also sells: fanservice.
As for me, If the game is not really centered on it, I don't really care.

>>1591983
>>1592009
>You can have realistic characters in a world with magic and unicorns and shit.
This.

Take Hamlet, for example. It's been adapted so many times through so many stories because it's a human story that people get.

As much as people want to believe, you can't emphasize with a fox lizard space otherkin banging robot harems. Characterization is defining the empathy, and when you don't have a grasp on what you're trying to get people to emphasize, you're taking shots in the dark and even if it works, people will say it was lazy and generic.

You guys have no idea how invested I am into visual novels. It's so Japan that it inverts into itself and becomes anti-Japan. Japan is great for fine tuning copycats, but they're not innovators. They take ideas and products and improve them. Here, you have a completely untouched medium that is literally ripe for today, it's visual, it's interactive, very touch screen capable, and what do they do?

Waifu simulators. Waifu simulators that are overpriced because the only way to justify the industry itself is to mark up the price for a niche market to support the next endeavor.

They made something new, decades ago, and I think Type Moon was the only one that took full advantage on licensing opportunities. Excellent copycats, not so much innovators.

>>1592135

>because it's a human story that people get

Sounds like globalized Hollywood bullshit. Why go in-depth within a subculture when you can generalize to the lowest common denominator with love? That's what movies do. Why lose profit?

>you can't emphasize with a fox lizard space otherkin banging robot harems

You can if you learn about them. You get to know them as the writer develops the character. It all depends on him doing a good job; if he's good, you'll feel exactly how he wants you to feel about the character. If he's better, people will feel in a multitude of ways because the character is actually open to interpretation.

>>1592142
Discussion in a thread? Don't worry about it.

Yeah, I gotta agree there.

>>1592327
I loved that VN, I should re-read it someday

>>1592025
Eve Burst Error is good, but awkward in a few spots. You have to use the "dual souls system" or whatever of playing parts of the game as the guy and some as the gril; the game will eventually stonewall you if you go too far as either. Some humor that didn't translate was replaced with topical jokes about the Clintons during the Lewinsky scandal; expect a few awful clunkers about Lina Tripp's nose. There is no sex whatsoever (it was clean enough even for a DreamCast release).

Despite the flaws, the game presents a good murder mystery with good pacing. One of the better VNs I've played.

>>1592327
Tokimeki Checkin! just didn't do it for me for some reason. Neither did Target Pheromone.

>>1592367
It's been OK so far. It's refreshing to see some truly bitchy women sometimes. The ones I usually see give away the fact that they'll eventually warm up to you quite obviously, but these are some hardcore ones.

And what an oinker...

>>1592025
I like it, it's a pretty good detective noir-ish story.

Standard disclaimers about old school JP adventure games apply though i.e "You have to look and examine every object 3 times before the scene will progress"

>>1592367
They're essentially fluff games, I guess. In this day and age I'm not really sure if I can just handle a normal "romance" story VN like that.

Funny to think that T Check-in was considered the flagship title of Peach Princess in the day now (which is basically now JAST)

>>1592415
I can sort-of see T Check-in having appeal to people that like the pap and emotional pandering. I found a lot of scenes tend to drag, especially in the later parts of the game.

>>1592428
Are we talking about the same game?

Fluff? Wat

>>1592430
I meant Target Pheromone, but yeah, they were both flufftastic.

The flags for this game are kind of dumb at times.

Like seriously, the decisions you need to make for girl on the right with the drill hair (what was her name... Natsuki?) over here? >>1592492

I think it entirely revolves around a running gag of her getting wet somehow, which explains dumb choices like having to use a mop/bucket instead of a broom to sweep the floor.

>>1592531
They're called Otome games.

I actually don't think the genre existed in PC98 times though... or DOS times for that matter.

>>1592582
Eve: Burst Error had a male and female protagonist. And yes, the female protagonist gets laid.

>>1592582
Angelique was an early example but it was on the SFC and not H.

Starting this game. Anyone played it?

>>1592579
Yeah, it's Natsuki.

It's just... How is it even possible to be so many fuck ups in such a short time? I mean, what.

Last choice I remember making was to go call the mysterious black-panty bipolar tsundere at her room. Dude waited there for like 10 minutes before going back to the hall and finding that everyone was mad at him. What.

I almost didn't get what you're saying until it clicked. It's almost not Hollywood's fault, the themes and emotions are just that low level

>You can if you learn about them.
>It all depends on him doing a good job
There's some miscommunication here, mostly because I was trying to condense so many things into few sentences that I didn't explain in fear of writing more than I already did, and making a mess. My point was to compliment the other guy in that when anime creators just create anime to act like other anime instead of people, it loses depth. It's practically fan fiction tier, in that you're not creating characters, you're borrowing caricatures or entire characters point blank in the case of actual fan fiction, and using them as a template. It's more of a plot device than a character, and that works and gets an excuse in games because you are the plot device, you are the one making the game go forward so the story is supplemental, but everything else, it feels forced, which is why you often hear some critic saying something has forced drama, that's when it's particularly getting to that shitty threshold.

Empathy is what drives characters, and it's people that live it in its raw form, not other anime characters, they are only one interpretation of one design for a particular story, and that is a terrible base to start creating another character with an entire different story for. It's the story writing the characters, rather than the characters writing the story. For the latter, think Ghibli movies, no surprise there.

Ergo, you can't emphasize with fox lizard space otherkin banging robot harems. Not that it can't be done, but I picked an outlandish example to illustrate the mindset of the bad writing, that is to just have an idea for the sake of it rather than a purpose.

And that is why Arceuid is best girl thank you for your time.

>>1592570
>hurrr no girls on le intarwebz

>>1592589

>>1592668
No. I don't think they do it in any of the games.

>>1592668
Surprisingly not as far as I can tell. Though maybe I'll give the PC-98 CGs a look-over since the localized version is a different one which is all-ages.

>>1592601
Like a proto-type Eve.
Male chapter: Generally Good.
Female chapter: Terrible, unless you enjoy going through a route of NTR after being hyped up by the male chapter to expect answers to the mysteries in the game rather than something that's out of a nukige.

Unfortunately you gotta beat both of them to get the true ending.

>>1592693
I think the only time they fuck is in the 2008 Eve mahjong game. 13 years after the original and made by a different company.

I remember playing and liking Cobra Mission: Panic in Cobra City, that was my first and last contact with the genre

>>1591362
PC98 is the original without voices.
Saturn has full voice acting, lower quality graphics and the sex scenes replaced with alternate scenes.
Windows had lower quality sound, no voices and extra censorship for the sex scenes.
The translation patch not only translates the game but also adds support for voices, PC98 sound, PC98 h scenes and the Saturn non-h scenes. There's also a patch to add those while keeping the text Japanese.

>>1591362
>>1592824
Just a clarification so the other anon doesn't get confused, the windows translation patch doesn't add those things by default, they are optional packages and you need to install them separately

Refer to this wiki >>1591774 for a full tutorial on how to install the game properly

And to answer that Anon, just get the Windows version.

>>1592852
The uncensored images and extra scenes are always included in the patch. The voice and music take up a lot of space and are distributed separately.

They don't. Not even in the sequels. Really there's no reason for them to.

>>1592930
>Nocturnal illusion

I started playing that a long time ago. Last thing I remember was Sari turning out to be a pussy-tonguing demon. That was the farthest I got, then I lost my save.

I'm replaying it now. I'm about to walk into the shed and find the demon and its willing sexual slave.

>>1582296

Shit taste the second part is the best.

>>1591950
He is called the Walt Disney of anime for a good reason. He has absolute control over his animators as a director. Look at what happened at the 80s Ghibli animators who got away. They exploded and the animator was then King, rather than the director.

>>1593562
I never played Adam the Double Factor either. I remember most reviews panning it for its questionable writing and shoe-horned sex scenes.

>>1594204
Not for good reason, he is just the easiest guy for casual (not using the in a derogatory way) anime viewers like movie critics to know after he won an oscar for Spirited Away. If anyone should be named the Walt Disney of Japan, it is Osamu Tezuka whose body of work dwarfs Miyazaki by a long mile. The man is the main reason the medium evolved after World War II. Nearly every '60s and '70s manga owed their designs and inspiration from Tezuka. Tezuka himself admired Walt Disney so much, all his early work apes or tries to be like Disney. The guy loved his craft. He is called God of manga in Japan, a title that makes him more worthy of the Walt Disney comparison than Miyazaki.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Osamu_Tezuka_manga

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Osamu_Tezuka_anime

>>1594212
Are they more shoehorned than in the first game?

>>1594245
Well if you were playing the Win95 version of the first game there wouldn't be any sex scenes...

>>1594212
There's a whole bunch of reasons not to play that game. Translation pretty damn wonky, for one thing, and the game's pretty boring. I mean Kojiro spends just about the entire game playing babysitter to some loli twins.

It's basically 1 game split into 2 and A:TDF ends on a cliffhanger... the 2nd half of the game was released in Japan but not here, so you're left with a huge case of blueballs.

Then again, most of the Japanese players also kind of think that the series shouldn't have had sequels past the 1st game anyway.

Can you play via Asenheim without an internet connection? Mine's been fucking up.

>>1594597
True, but the original PC98 version did have them, as well as the remake.

Sorry, I was thinking about Fermion. I mixed the names up, even though those games have nothing in common.

Persiom is a pretty fun board RPG, while Fermion is just a simple VN.

I would kill for a remake that fixed some of the glaring flaws, mainly:
>puzzles that require a guide
>Takuya being a dumbass in Ayumi's route.
>Having no idea of where to go
>The fact that not getting involved in other girls' routes means that they'll either die or stay with their shitty life
>The epilogue's glaring lack of gameplay and choices(I wanted an ending that didn't involve fucking your own daughter or getting Ayumi and Amanda killed/jettisoned)

>>1596907
>>puzzles that require a guide
? ? ?

>>1596907
The puzzle in the crypt isn't complicated, it just comes a bit out of nowhere. The bonus disk had some simpler puzzles to warm up.

>Amanda
She survived the fall.
You actually unknowingly had sex with your daughter before the epilogue,

My biggest grief is a lack of service for the guard girl. She's established as careless, it would be simple to add a scene where you see her changing.

>>1594224
Makes me wish that more anime/Japanese art harkened back to those older, more diverse styles. Kill La Kill is a great example.
>>1591967
Hits it on the head. IMO, this is also the big problem with most of the comic book industry - Superhero comics, to be more specific.

>>1590790
Runaway City is a tad weird at times. Three Sisters Story is pure gold. Why are you not playing it already?

A question regarding the new Renewal version of Nocturnal Illusion: Has anyone managed to unlock the new scenes with Kusayama? I know they're there, because pic related is one of them, and the japanese version is supposed to have them, but apparently the currently existing english patches block them because nobody can be bothered to translate them.

>>1597114
Honestly I just figured they dropped the old script into the new engine and that's why any scenes will never play.

Same thing with the voices, since they're usually part of the script as well.

>>1592824
>the translation patch not only translates the game but also adds support for voices, PC98 sound, PC98 h scenes and the Saturn non-h scenes

Damn, sounds like some high quality work. If I get the fuwanovel torrent, I get all that?

To this day the only h-game I've finished and have been able to stand is Season of Sakura.

I have no idea why I can't keep playing other titles.
They just bore me after a bit.

>>1597657
>Season of Sakura
That's a bit surprising considering how awful Seasons of Sakura appeared to me. Bland stories that are slight rip offs in a Tokimemo-like setting... and every single character is stolen from popular animes at the time.

Still, I finished it because muh OCD.

>>1597840
>tfw asuka and rei are in the game

Finally finished replaying Nocturnal Illusions Misao's ending is garbage

I think I may do May Club next

>>1597610
Don't know, but these work >>1591774

>and every single character is stolen from popular animes at the time.
I imagine that WAS its drawing point for its release - finally having a game where you can "date" your favourite Anime girl from actual anime as a teenager (yes, everyone ignored that part back in the days).

Of course that also makes it super extra dated in 2014.

I would buy/kickstart a True Love 2014 so hard.

I'm playing it now.
This guy is an asshole, but it can be pretty funny.

>>1591247
Hey, it could be anything.

>>1574941
I've never really cared about any of the visual novels I've tried playing, but this one has really got me sucked in so far. I'm curious about what will happen, and I LOVE that you only have to use the mouse to control it. I've been searching for a simple game to play with one hand that could replace solitaire.

>>1598532
most porn game can be played with one hand.

>>1598535
Good thing I'm a lefty in that sense.

>>1583353
What a well-done pic... subtly unsettling and evocative of dread and gloom.

Finished Divi-dead, I got the asura ending which after googling I've found out is the 'lame' ending (probably because it's a happy ending) I had no idea what was going on though, but it was good. Playing nocturnal illusion and liking it too.

Why are these games so spooky though? I mean last time I felt so uneasy was playing Umineko. None of these games have any kind of interactivity but they conjure up such effective dread.

>>1599501
mystery just so happens to really work in thos medium juat like adventure games

>>1599501
Japan understands the psychological. They know how to get under people's skin to the "animating symbols" of what inspires emotion. The West just goes "ooga booga booga!"

That's also why their smut is so good. :3

Does anyone know if Nocturnal Illusion ever had a dos release? I vaguely recall playing a Win95 version, but that's it. I've been looking around, but I can't seem to find any info that would clear things up. According to this site it is a dos game and it also has a sequel?

http://vsrecommendedgames.wikia.com/wiki/Hentai_Games_%28R%3D18%29

>>1600612
My hazy memory of the late 90s remembers Nocturnal Illusion being a Windows game. The profile in the VN database also only lists it as a Windows game (and PC 98 in a single japanese release).
I'm pretty sure that "sequel available" wrongly refers to the revised version with voices and so on.

>>1600612
Win95 & PC98 versions exist, but I'm pretty sure there's no port for DOS, unless it was some really obscure Japanese release.

>>1600671
There's also a really weird port to what I believe is the ZX Spectrum:

http://speccy.info/Nocturnal_Illusion

Made by some russian guy.

>>1600678
This is more hardcore than whoever tried to port Doom to the ZX Spectrum

>>1596954

>Miyazaki always felt very outside from the anime world

He just put Hideki Anno in last movie and basically tutored the guy as well as his buddies who formed Gainax. Just because he won an Oscar doesn't put him "above" or "outside" the anime industry.

>>1574941
Every time I read Ranmaru's name it makes me think of "ran ran ruuuuu".

>>1601919
>He just put Hideki Anno in last movie

What am I reading?

>>1601919
>Just because he won an Oscar doesn't put him "above" or "outside" the anime industry.

I never said that but thanks for pointing out a completely random trivia

>>1601919
I don't think anyone is arguing that point.

>this fucking feel

>>1599501
Mystery work better when it make work your imagination.
That's why realistic graphics are bad for spooky game.
also, give a try to Evidence

>>1603637
Got a link I can check out?

I tried to play Nocturnal illusion but stopped. I thought it'd be a mystery game like Divi-dead where the fucking isn't really the point (and is rare enough that it doesn't feel like a h-game) but so far all that's happened is my main char has fucked 3 different chicks which fixes their problems because reasons, so as far as I can tell it's more just a straight hentai game.

>>1603645
It's a recent game aka In Memoriam: The Last Ritual
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7D82M8XvTAo

>>1603645
I started playing that one next too, but for some reason I'm able to take it for what it is, and I'm having a pretty good time with it. Maybe because I just wasn't sure what to expect. The more I play of it, the more I appreciate about it, though clicking look, look, check, check, move everywhere I go can get annoying.

>>1603645
If the third you meant is Miwako then yeah, it is starting to get a bit redundant, sadly. I'm going to keep playing though, to see if it picks up.

>>1582224
Watch out man, you know what they say about haunted cartridges. The same thing could happen to you and your mint copy.

So arcade apparently has a fuckton of hentai games. You can play them on mame.

Finally. This is the source of so many gifs that I knew about since I started using the internet and never managed to track down.

Specifically, the hot tits blonde pulling up her corset and failing hard at keeping her shit packed in. 6 minutes mark. So fucking nostalgic now.

>>1605239
Yeah, that does look kind of familiar.

>PC-98

https://archive.foolz.us/vr/thread/100359/

I want in. Do I need to know moon in order to into PC-98?

>>1605260
>Do I need to know moon in order to into PC-98?

It depends in what you are interested. Since most games are adventure games, visual novels, strategy games or RPG's. Yes, you will need some japanese knowledge to enjoy a lot of them.

>>1574214
I wasn't surprised to see Misao being popular, but I never would expect Mistress to get so many votes. I'm a Sari man myself.

>>1570130
Neither do I.

>>1606581
>Sari

But she's MY waifu

>>1606986
She'd be awesome for sex, but in terms of a caring, loving personality, your best choice is Maya by far in my opinion. Unless you're into M/s, in which case you have to go with the maid whose name I can't remember currently.

>>1606997
>not being the man Sari loves and providing her with all the blood she needs to keep living and loving you

pls

>Maya

I just don't feel attracted to her. She's just a friend to me.

>whose name I can't remember
>not remembering her name

Miwako. She's an adorable person, too.

>>1606997
>but in terms of a caring, loving personality, your best choice is Maya

Sari waited for her lover to return each evening. If that's not a caring and loving personality I don't know what is.

>>1607084
>she knew he was ded

More like mental illness if you ask me. Fortunately, your dick is the cure! Just give her something else to love!

>>1607084
I think there's a difference between caring/loving and hardcore obsession.

>>1570224
Are there any other good games on this site that are translated semi-well other than Divi-Dead and Nocturnal Illusion?

>>1581054
Oh cool, I've seen that .gif posted on /v/ a couple times in pixel art/sprite threads. But no one has ever given a source.
>exclusively lesbian sex scenes.
Now I just need to track down a copy of this... Thanks anon.

>>1570224
All of the games I've tried here are terrible, at least some are funny but goddamn. Having to click every single option that the game wants you to is tedious and pointless, why is there even a choice. Modern VNs are literature compared to it.

>>1570129
I've always loved the dithering styles of these games.

Never considered playing one, but seen lots of pictures on 4chan. The way most old hentai games are dithered looks wonderful.

Anyone have an old arkanoid-style pokemon hentai game called Poke-A-Ball? Can't seem to find it anywhere now. I remember you had to enter in a challenge code to play it, but there were keygens available.

>>1607103
The good parts might be only on the long run, but I recommend Runaway City. It's still a very, uh, fucky game... But there's a TWEEST near the end that's pretty neat.

True Love is a great Tokimemo-like, without the bombs.

>>1607171

>>1607175
Thanks, I'll look into that.

>>1607171
Damn, I had that. I remember you could unlock Misty by beating it without losing a life.

Is there english version/translation of Dragon Knight 4?

>>1608164
Don't make me post the sadfrog, Anon... I've been wanting that game for almost two decades.

I even tried to play the Super Famicom version that I randomly found in a romset, but I got stuck pretty fast.

>>1608164
Did you play the floppy or CD version of KoX? CD version had full voice acting.

Desmond and Rolf's voices were hilaribad.

Has anyone heard of a series called Pinky Panky? Might of been PC-98 whatever. I had this old VCR tape that had adds for old H games(Like the Cybernetic High School games) It looked like you went through various seduce the girl scenarios(Nurse,Cop,Kimono girl) Never was able to find anything

>>1608510
Originally PC88 like most early Elf games and ported to the PC98 which is probably the better version due to the higher resolution text.

Absolutely no mention of WordsWorth, wow, im disappointed

>>1608617
Words Worth isn't translated. There was a scam site selling a patch for WWXP but it was just guesswork based on the anime.

>>1608628
um, yes it is, you just have to look harder

>>1608628
im not sure about the translation, seems fine to me.

>>1608629
I can only find the funtranslation.com one which as I said is not a translation.

>>1608654
It doesn't match up with the spoken dialog. Even if you don't understand a bit Japanese you should realize that things like names are regularly missing.

>>1608667
the spoken dialog is close enough to the text that it doesn't really matter when it comes to the story. its no better than a shitty translated anime.i hail from /a/ so ive heard alot of gookspeak in my time

>>1608667
the translations is still pretty accurate. its like watching anime with shitty translation. the dialog is close enough to the text that it doesn't matter when it comes to the story.

>>1608598
Wow! Fast service. This is one of the exact pics from the ad

>>1608598
What is a good emulator to play this on?

Toushin Toshi is pretty good and TT2 is one of the best H-games I played. These games were made by the creators of Rance series. You also don't have to play them in order because the only thing they have in common is the setting and the basic premise: the protagonist goes to Toushin City to participate in the Toushin Tournament which decides the strongest fighter on the Continent. They're old but were translated only recently.

You can download them from the site of the guy who translated them

https://arunarutranslatescrap.wordpress.com/translations-and-progress/

>>1608895
Got BlueMSX and managed to get it to run butt....I can't get to the main game. Fuck. Sigh
Shows the various girls but I don't get the multiple choice thing

>>1588623

There is also an x-rated version translated by the chums who gave us the glorious Cobra Mission

Does anyone know if True Love for win95 ever came out with voice acting and the shit warez that's on the internet everywhere is a rip without them?

>>1609084
That's quite impossible.

>>1609080
Played Xentar and there was an uncensoring patch offered by Megatech I believe.

Gloriously cheesy with some 4th wall breaking

>this beauty won't ever be recognized because they were forced to shove awful hentai scenes into it

I can understand the suicide rate of japan

>>1608895
NekoProject 2 fmgen is the recommended PC98 emulator.
http://fullmotionvideo.free.fr/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1161
Tokugawa had a pack with pre-configured emulators for all sort of computers.

>>1608694
You could simply make up your own story on the fly for the same effect.

No but seriously, why we don't have a new True love ?

>>1609135
What's the special about True Love compared to other dating sims?
Why don't we have a new TokiMemo or Doukyuusei?

>>1609114
Recognized by whom? Anyway, why would you care.
Then again, it's not like I'm a fan of ero-scenes.

>>1609141
First hentai game that you played that was a hentai game and not just some JRPG/VN with some h thrown on?

>>1609135
Good question.

>>1609157
Hizashi no naka no real
It's from 2006 so it won't count as retro.

>>1609084
What a goddess.

>>1609141
actual gameplay.

>>1609141

Compared to other dating sims, nothing outisde being a Tokimemo clone with h-scenes. As for Doukyuusei, I guess Elf doesnt have interest in the franchise anymore, and with Hiruta Masato out of the company I don't think they will make a third game. Still, they made Kakyuusei 2 (yes, it was 10 years ago). TokiMemo had 4 but I guess the magic there is gone, it will survive as an otome franchise though.

>>1609218
Er, I meant that as a tentative answer to "what's so special about TL?". I should add the multiple endings/routes to what people liked about it.
