/vr/ - Retro Games

That arcade Popeye game. As a kid, I lost probably $1000 worth of quarters on that game.

Street Fighter 2010 isn't THAT hard. If you manage to build up a decent beam meter it can make certain enemies and areas cakewalks.

Now Ninja Gaiden on the other hand... the amount of trash bullshit enemies clogging up the screen in the last level is fucking masochistic.

>>4002738
Lol no sf2010 is way harder than ninja gaiden 1

SF2010's difficulty is honestly really fair until you get to the very last stage.

>>4002834
I don't even know where to begin. The levels in SF2010 are all insanely short (to the point where you could almost call it a boss rush) whereas most of the bullshit in Ninja Gaiden stems from having to play through an entire stage again whenever you get a game over.

>that misspelling
Seriously though, fuck this game

>>4002738
>Ninja Gaiden 1
>hard

You goof stop being contrarian

>>4002605

Silver surfer was brutaly brutaly hard

Either this or Rex, from what I've played. 8 bit computer games are pretty brutal in general.

Leave this to the big boys, kids.

For me, just about every shmup. I love them but I'll be goddamned if I've ever been able to get proficient at one

>>4002605
No. Just, no. Street Fighter 2010 is not even hard. I beat it in a day or two (20 years ago, so I'm not certain). And I believe I could beat it regularly back then.

>>4003937
Some are harder than others. Most console shooters are easier than arcade/arcade ports. Not Gaiares, obviously.

>Best cards cost 999999 starchips
>Glitches and an AI that can see your cards
>You have to duel Low Meadow Mage forever to get decent cards and beat the game without cheating

>>4003976
This game was fucking ridiculous, still enjoyed it though

Step it up

>>4003959
Rayxamber II is probably the hardest console hori that isn't a port

>>4004037
It's not hard it just never ends you get used to the enemy patterns after not too long just jump and kick

Rusty.

I probably just suck dick at games though.

>>4004174
>it's not hard after you learn how it all works
So every game ever?

>>4003976
a couple of dudes bear it in 3 hours

git gud dude

nah joking it was a roulette shitfest

>I probably just suck dick at games though.

Considering this is PC98, you're probably the kind of person who plays games because they're glamorous and not because you actually enjoy them.

>>4004356
How the fuck is playing old japanese porno machine glamorous?

come at me bro

>>4003937
Same here. I have fun playing the games but I'm only decent at best at them. I can beat a good number of old action titles on one credit or life but I still can't even 1CC Dodonpachi or Espgaluda.

>>4004593
The only way to 1cc dodonpachi is to actually SEE the matrix.. While high on cocaine and extasis

This

Contra Hard corps
You know first time I play this game in japan version ,When I clear all character in all endding.
I think now I'm best player in the world.
But when I got the US version...... WTF
Lifebar are gone, no 3hit kill only hit you die and lost weppon. noooo even I remember all move of enemy in this game and can pass with no damage but 1hit die are no fun after all.

No one has posted the hardest game ever yet...

The original X-com was a very hard game, well, there was this Glitch that was unknown to the developers and gamers, where the gamers would choose the hard difficulty but it would still play with the easy one .

So the developers were getting feedback that the game was too easy even in the hardest difficulty. which of course is not true but the glitch would make it appear so.

So what happened was, on their sequel, they basically made the hardest difficulty in the first game the "easy" mode for the new game, and you can imagine how the hard mode must be.

People could barely get past the first level.

I think it's just because I suck ass.

>>4004919
I've beaten the US version when I was 9 or 10. Git gud.

>>4002738
Ninja Gaiden and SF2010 are a breeze compared to Battletoads and Castlevania 3

>>4005451
Seconded. Just wait until your first Terror Mission at night on a Cargo or, god forbid, a fucking Cruise Ship with Lobstermen. Fuck Lobstermen!

>>4003936
As a shmup player, I definitely second this. What the fuck were they thinking? I can beat gradius 1-2 and salamander no sweat, but gradius 3 arcade is just insane. I made it to stage 4 once, and I think thats probably less than half the game

>>4004618
Or just play it every day for like 2 weeks, it's not that rough if you put in the practice. Mars Matrix on the other hand is a nigger and a half, I can barely beat that game after buying a good chunk of extra lives and continues in the dreamcast version

>>4006172
whee

>>4006678
Thats Dark Souls tier cheap kill
