/vr/ - Retro Games

Goldeneye for me.

Even better via emulation and a DS3. No autoaim and 1.2 mode.

I spent a lot of time on Harvest Moon, Star Fox, Mario and Mario kart. I'll never forget the freedom I felt when playing these. Harvest Moon is a bit hard to get re invested in after all these years, but everything else has excellent replay value. I find Goldeneye and Smash Bros. Extremely un-fun after having played much better versions of them or similar games with actual controls.

Star Fox will never be the same without that controller on the other hand.

Similarly, Mischief Makers will probably never feel right when emulated.

I can't even begin to describe the nostalgia trip I feel when thinking of ANY 64 game though really. I imagine most people in this board totally understand.

I just posted that but now I geek like I have have to go on and on about nostalgia. FUCK. I just can't shake that feeling of bitter sweet desire to experience a world that feels immersive and infinite even though the maps were hilariously small looking back at them. I just clung so desperately to the tiny little details that the worlds became so real in my head... Man. Being a child with video games during your parent's nasty divorce is really some next level escapism... I want the simplicity of being able to choose my world at a moments notice back.

>>2489587
Feel* not geek. Although that seems rather applicable now.

>>2489587
Whoa man :(

That really struck a chord.

>>2489390
Harvest Moon, Super Mario 64, Diddy Kong Racing, and Pokemon Snap. Maaaan, shit was amazing.

StarFox 64, Goemon's Great Adventure, Sin and Punishment, Majora's Mask are all contenders for favorite N64 games, but I think this one takes the cake.

If think N64 is the single greatest video game console type 'yay'

If not type 'nay' and what you think the best console is and why

>>2491382
'gay'

>>2491382
It's yea, not yay.

>>2489390
is this a video game example of photobombing?
fox looks adorable

>>2491382
Nay. Playstation rekt it.

>>2491382
>>2491669

Fuck off.

Saturn>N64>Normiestation

I think Mario Party, Mario Tennis, and Smash Bros. are my favorites. N64 multiplayer is the best multiplayer.

>>2491382
N64 is one of the worst consoles in history. Horrible controller, tons of subpar games including "popular" games made specifically for kids that didn't know any better, and cartridges in a time of CD-ROM domination.

The NES is still the best pure console, and the Commodore 64 beats them all from a retro platform standpoint, with DOS a close second.

>>2491681
> most multiplayer games were four players
>n64 had built in four controller ports, no add ons needed
> PlayStation has small library of games with maybe four player
> n64 has more party games

Your move, Sony.

>>2491682

I'm pretty sure most N64 games were made specifically for Everyone. Not counting it has a lot of rated T and M games. I sure remember playing wrestling games or Perfect Dark with friends back then.

however, since you love Commodore and DOS so much, I bet you can find a lot of games that were actually made specifically for children there. I reccommend opic related, you might enjoy it, tough boy!

>>2489420
you shouldn't even joke about this
that game was so bad it wasn't even funny it was just sad

>>2491687
Most of them were that retarded 4way splitscreen "can't see shit@10FPS" garbage anyway.

>>2491694

>i-it's ok I didn't want it anyway

that's how you sound

I bet your childhood was grey and sad.
probably your adulthood is even worse :3

>>2491691
I didn't mean games for small children, I meant games for you kids. Basically meaning games that are poorly done but you're too young and ignorant about gaming to know any better.

>>2491701
>childhood
My childhood was playing Pong, kid.

Also, I had DOS where we could play Doom full fucking screen on individual computers like real gamers at that time, not some little toy that played shitty console FPS garbage at 10FPS.

>>2491702

Haha yeah man, whatever you say

>>2491707
Wow, you kids sure are mad that you grew up at the wrong time.

How about playing pre-1995 games exclusively for a while and learning how gaming is really supposed to be? The N64 basically ruined you as gamers.

>>2491706

>like real gamers

accept it, if you limited yourself to only 1 platform, you were doing it wrong.

You missed stuff.

Idort is always the way, whenever I see someone bashing a whole console all I read is "my mommy couldn't buy me this console as a kid, so I hate it now"

>>2491709

I'm older than you think I am.

In fact, I suspect I'm older than you.

I'm not even mad, I've always been idort (consoles and PC)

>>2491706
>My childhood was playing Pong, kid.

Last year?

>>2491709
god, this is some of the laziest trolling I have ever seen, haha

The N64's library was pretty unique, when you see games on the N64 that were exclusives and not on PC or Playstation they have a very specific aeshtetic that only N64 games had. Like when you see even third party games like the Goemons, Snowboard Kids or Chameleon Twist, they could've only been on N64.

>>2489390
Favorite titles would have to be OoT, MM, HM64, Paper Mario, SM64, BK, and Starfox 64 in that order. Replaying BK right now since I never finished it when I was a kid. Having a lot of fun with it.

My favorite will have to be conkers. Yes it wasn't amazing by any means but I replayed that game a hundred times. I wish I never sold either of the 2 copies I had. So much regret

>>2489390

Nothing to talk about

There was only 8 games, I don't know anyone who can name 10 without looking it up.

The only people who owned an n64 if you went to their house it smelled like cheerios had been spilled onto the carpet and left.

>>2491807
Go back to your normistation thread faggot. You sound like a joyless adult who never experienced the joy of N64. I pity you.

>>2489587

Video games are GOAT escapism

I can't even fathom how introverts and losers managed to survive in times gone by

Everyone else is out doing/selling drugs, kid got shot outside and parents divorced? Shut the window a little tighter and play some fuckin vidya and shitpost on the internet, best way to spend an afternoon

don't you have anything better to do than try to irritate people on japanese image boards? go play some video games if you're bored

>>2491910

Outstanding shit posting bro. We need more posts like this on every board. Great job!

>>2491910
Anon uses Bait.
But, it failed!

>>2491382
nay. Poor hardware, shit-tier picture and sound, boring uninspired games save for a few.

>>2493217
>Poor hardware
As opposed to what? PCs? the N64 was more powerful than desktop PCs at release, up until the first 3dfx cards came out. There's a reason why even PC magazines at the time praised the N64.

>shit-tier picture and sound

Maybe if you grew up during the 6th gen, then I can understand you thinking N64 (and PS1, and Saturn) had "shit-tier" picture. In fact yeah, 5th gen in general doesn't look very good, but at least n64 has some of the best looking games of that gen, like Sin and Punishment.

>boring uninspired games save for a few

?

>>2491382
I love it but nay.

>>2491818
But in the era before video games, there was pretty much no divorce and little drug usage.

>>2491840
I think you are a bed wetter because normal people don't talk like that.

I bet you get urges to start fires and hurt defenceless animals also.

>>2493735
But there was way more murder and far more negros walking on white men's shadows.

Hell, there were even GREAT WARS killing millions of people before games came around.

>>2493295
>There's a reason why even PC magazines at the time praised the N64.
citation needed.

>>2493891
As an N64 fanboy, gaming magazines have always been corrupt as a goddamn Sith lord Darth Gollum coked up on the Ring of Fallout 2 Jet.

A citation from a gaming magazine won't mean much either pro or con.

>>2491818
When my parents got divorced it was ps2 era. That was the last system I really got into.
I own a ps3 now in my adulthood but mostly just use it as a Netflix player. I haven't really gotten into vidya as much as I did as a young kid. I can't tell whether it's because nostalgia, or just never having time for it anymore.

>no one mentioning rogue squadron

I only need 2 more gold medals.

>>2494612

Xbox joystick isn't my favourite but I don't think it's that bad as people say. Also, young anon, so cute. ;_;

>>2489702
YOU ARE A TRUE BRO

Mario 64.

I've played through it a billion times and I still love it.

>>2494612
autist alert

>>2494652

>>2489702
>Majora's Mask
Started this recently and while it's really good, I've been playing it via the GC collector's edition and the framerate is liquid shit. Was it bad on the 64 too?

What are some games where I can just start it up and fuck some shit up and not worry about collecting whatever

>>2494949
GC collector's edition is literally worse than emulating the game on Project64. The framerate is shite and some areas won't load properly at times.

>>2494970

Blast Corps

>>2495003
Is OOT on GC that bad? Also is the master quest pretty interesting?

Perfect Dark
Conker
Banjo Tooie
SM64
Paper Mario
Cruisin USA
Rush 2
Goldeneye

the n64 has so many good games, i could name a shit ton of them if i wanted

>>2495003
>>2495359

NOT TRUE. I own the game and it runs perfectly, and at a higher resolution.

There was a thread about EMULATING the collector's edition that featured complaints, but that was about emulating the collection, not playing the actual disk. I think this guy may have read that thread and misunderstood.

Source: I have beaten OoT on Gamecube at least four times, my brother has beaten it at least 10 and speedruns it for fun. Also the virtual console version is actually the gamecube version

Really boring answer, but I just don't see anything that's better

He's not even old, sounds like a 15 year old who's trying to fit in by playing WADs of Doom with KB+M support.

>>2489390
Blast Corps is probably one of the best action puzzle games period.

>>2494612
>u

>>2495580
I've been playing it on an actual GC anon, and I was the one he was responding to... Majora's Mask has audio glitches and a terrible framerate on the collection; I was just curious if the framerate was an issue on the original too (the game ITSELF warns you about audio glitches when you boot it up). OoT may be a different story, though.
