/vr/ - Retro Games

>>4151460
- Some Fighting Game, because I'll never buy one of those again after SF2, alternately something weird I haven't seen anywhere else like Spanky's Quest. I never gave a shit about PS1 or N64, which means my rentals can be wild for they are cheap
- Some 80s or early 90s horror movie because I enjoy practical effects and imaginative concepts
- I don't know what snacks they had at Blockbuster, we had Video Kingdom where I lived, no snacks there worth getting, Reeses Pieces I guess

earthbound , the last unicorn, and milk duds.

>>4151460

>>4151460
If it's 1996 I'm playing whatever I want out of the guts at the shop. This was before my two friends started working at Blockbuster but I might have picked up Hackers on my way back to my fat GF's apartment.

I certainly wouldn't have bought snacks there at movie theater prices when they couldn't hold me captive while I watched their movie. I probably made garlic bread. We were into that back then.

Something I actually did before. If I went back in time I would repeat.

Halo 2, Shaun of the Dead and a 5 pound bag of laffy taffy to share. Late 2004

Friend was bringing his xbox over but was too poor to buy Halo 2. So we had 8 people at my house with 2 Xboxs and played Halo 2 all night. Woke up and watched Shaun of the Dead then back to Halo 2 for another night of debauchery. We polished off 6 large pizzas, 10 wings, ten 2 liters of soda, and the bag of Laffy Taffy.

Man, Blockbuster was something. Also had a Hollywood Video in the area but I was a Blockbuster boy at heart mainly because I had like a bunch in my city so I could make use of my membership card for that free popcorn.

>there was this bitch named felicity at my local/closest blockbuster who would hold back games for her friends to come pick up every friday

I never got to decide. Being the youngest im my family, my vote didn't count. We never bought snacks.

But I want Rock n' roll racing, stand by me, and id rather get a few pogs instead of snacks.

>>4152201
they sold pogs at blockbuster? don't tell me i fucked up for my whole childhood?

>>4152214
Pogs were faggoty as fuck.
Your ignorance was your salvation, sir

>>4152214
I'm sorry, I guess I should say we didn't go to block buster. We went to a mom and pop shop we had in our small town. I even have a few snes games today that my parents bought from it before it closed. I actually have the rock n' roll racing.

>one game, one movie, & one snack.

never happened I had to decide between one game or one movie. Snacks were out of the question.

Super Metroid
Aliens
Sour Patch Kids

I hate to say it, I was only a year old 1996, but lets see, if I was around, and I had the psx

Megaman 8
First contact if im alone
Happy gilmore if people are coming over
just a sprite.

The thing is though, even though I wasent around for its height, the fun of Blockbuster for me in the early 2000's was not knowing what I was gonna get. Its how I found some crazy shit like
>The good, the Bad, and the Weird
>Anime WITH TITS
>cheap sci-fi flicks
>Cheap horror movies

You never knew what you were going to find. I mean, I didnt know Star wars Battlefront was even coming out until I got to the store, and an older friend of mine told me to try it out.

It was like a great mystery. But then I got old, and right as I started to get old enough to research movies, use the internet, keep up with releases, they disappeared.

I dunno, thanks for reading this 22 year old's blogpost. Blockbuster just gets me really nostalgic. I dont know if it was because I was a kid, but 1999-2004 were fucking magical for me, and I dont know if life will ever feel like that again.

Im sorry to hear that anonbro, 2005 is when the magic died, but I just got old. Shit didnt hit the fan for my family until 2014. I hope everything is either made right eventually, or you are given the opportunity to forget things are wrong.

>>4151460
>I never gave a shit about PS1 or N64, which means my rentals can be wild for they are cheap

They priced renting 16 bit less than renting 32 bit? Weiird.

>>4151460
I was probably renting something random like Tail of the Sun or Aquanaut's Holiday to see if it was my deal. Rent probably City of Lost Children or 12 Monkeys again or something. Snack on apples and Tostitos.

>>4152532 Thanks anonbro.
I forgot to submit my answers.

>game: If '96, maybe Uniracers for SNES

That's one fine combination.

>I dont know if it was because I was a kid, but 1999-2004 were fucking magical for me, and I dont know if life will ever feel like that again.

Of course not, you were like 4-9 during that time. Everything is like that when you're that young. The world didn't get any less magical though, your perspective just changed, as it will continue to do your whole life. Now that you're entering adulthood though it's time for you to discover what is magical on your own.

Maybe, but it maybe would have left for a different reason. The only guarantee in life is hardship.

>>4151460

...I think I know what I'm doing tonight.

>>4152602 Maybe you're right. I'd do anything to go back to that time though.

>>4152581
Exactly what I said. I just got older. I enjoy life now, girl friend, steady job, and uni life. But when I was a kid there was wonder. And now, I know at least a year in advance before any show, movie, or game comes out that might spark my interest.

I kinda wish I grew up alongside my mom. Her stories of the 80's seem like she kept that wonder well into her teens. Movie gallery was hoppin, no cell phones, biked everywhere. You could take the phone off the hook and not exist fora night. I dont know what changed, or why we dont act like that any more, but you have to admit, it hasent been like that since the early 80s.

what id give to be a trashy teen growing up in the mid to late 80's.

>>4152606
You can't. But you can focus on making a future time better than that was.

AAGGHH! Real Monsters (SNES), That sour spray candy, and Flight of the Navigator. Thats what I would have gotten back at that age.

>>4152607
I'm much closer in age to your mom than I am you and I can tell you that it's all still quite possible. A number of years ago I realized following too much stuff left me overhyped and burnt out by the time it came out, so now I usually pay little attention to what's up and coming and more just on what's out now. Though to be fair that would be harder if I was in my 20's/

But also, there's so much more to be inspired and awestruck by than just what the next game is going to be. We're living in an incredible age of information, anything that stikes your interest you can fall into an almost infinite rabbithole of learning about it.

I do get it, I used to feel about the 70's the way you feel about the late 90's, but message from the future holding onto what's gone mostly just holds you back. It might be something we all have to learn on our own though, I don't know.

Just don't lose hope and think that things will never be as good as they seemed like they could be when you were a kid. They'll never be the same, but that's not a bad thing. The universe is vast and more complex than you can possibly imagine. Think of it like a big game, look for what seems cool and go check it out. Trust me, there's a hell of a lot of wonder out there.

>>4152662
I am sure you are right anon. Its the late summer depression I think. I feel wonder while in Uni, I just have had a long summer of work and monotony. Thank you anon for reminding me that there is still wonder to discover. And a special thanks for not being a bitter oldfag just because you are in your 30.

>>4152662

That's because the majority of them commit suicide or become normalfags by then. I don't get how you can buy into such pointless optimism but then again, by your own admission, you're a normalfag. For the record I agree with your spoiler in the previous post but I question the genuity of how you feel about your statement given the fact you're neurotypical as fuck.

>>4152889
>genuity of how you feel about your statement given the fact you're neurotypical as fuck.

Funny how you use that word, even though it literally means not-autistic. Just because im a normie by most measurements, doesnt mean Ive never drempt of a time were things were different. Of watching bad anime dubs from the movie store, or sifting through tons and tons of games, making my obscure favorites list along the way.

>>4152889
>>4152889
You sound like you need serious counseling, dude. I genuinely hope you don't waste your entire life feeling like that.

>>4152915

Not just by most measurements, you're a de-facto normalfag. But /vr/'s age-range tends to pull from a demographic where that sort of thing tends to be more prevalent.

Not bait, but it's your life. You sound fucking miserable though and that's saddening.

>>4152934
Hell, mana was 3 player, wasent it?

>>4152940
See now you're getting the hang of it. In a few years maybe you'll get somewhere with your bait.

>>4152948

Yep but I mostly played 2 player because I didn't get a multitap until I got one on clearance in roughly 1997. I just couldn't figure out why there was a dog but the developers wouldn't let the 2nd player control him. Great game otherwise.

>>4152948

When did that start happening? For years it was considered to be a great game but now people hate it. Hell, even I found myself not enjoying it as much as I used to, despite loving it in the past. And that was before I read about the recent disdain for it.

I think it's a case of "not aging well". When it came out people just played it and accepted the game as it was. But over time action rpgs developed and a more hack and slash action approach became standard. So now when people look at it, the charging system seems very slow and foreign and they don't like it.

Compound that the magic wheel system being clunky and the game can feel very dated and sub-par. It also doesn't help that the AI was bad and almost no one now plays co-op.

Game: Resident Evil (because I heard it was the shit, and I saw previews of someone shooting a rocket launcher at hell hounds down a hallway of some spooky mansion)


Ironically presenting these options doesn't give me the itch to play or watch any of these. They're just so old hat that ive moved past them and noted the quirks with all of them that now make them cringey (this is just flashing back to 1996 thats all).

I would like that snack, but I dont have the option right now.

Blockbuster was too expensive so it was at Movie Man.
Spider-Man and Venom: Maximum Carnage for Genesis. If I rent a game my parents wouldn't let me get a movie too. Also snacks were too expensive to them. Also my dad would drop off the game on his way to work so I would only get 1 day to play it for a 5 day rental. I never understood that seemed like a waste.

We had a video store that charged by the day, so mom made sure to run it back the next morning.
To this day I still wonder if they just charged too much or if she was being cheap.

I was only allowed 1 movie, RARELY a game, and never a snack but for the sake of the thread:

Game: Pokemon Stadium 2
Movie: Godzilla Vs Hedorah
Snack: Bottlecaps

Depends. As a kid, I'd never rent the same thing twice, as I' just ask for it if I could see myself playing it more than the week allotted. I'd get mike and ikes though.

>>4151460
Jokes' on you, Blockbuster. We buy the snacks next door at the grocery store where they aren't a fucking ripoff.

>>4167518
Jokes' on you, Blockbuster. We download our games and play them using a $600 device that takes several minutes to load.
Surely in the future these devices will be made cheaper, faster and smaller. And then no child will complain about paying $10 in 1996 money to do the same. amirite?

>>4151460
Tekken 3, Predator, Buncha Crunch

I must have seen Predator at least 300 times by now and it's always a fucking great watch.

The grocery store was directly adjacent to blockbuster, where I usually got a Twix bar.

by 1996 i was too obsessed with final fantasy vi to rent or play anything else, although i do recall seeing a saga frontier poster or stand on an end cap in blockbuster around that time. unless i'm remembering wrong

Game- Gauntlet 2.

Film- Caravan of courage.

Are you a Wiccan? Sevenleaf kind of sounds like a Wiccan name.

>>4171736
Oh I wouldn't be surprised.

My family had just moved back to the US at that time and my mom was still in full FOB mode which means no renting because it's a waste of money. You save. You buy. No rent.
>ywn know the pain of growing up in the US with cheap-ass immigrant parents

>>4151460
There is still a blockbuster store located a few blocks from where I live. They still rent out dvd/blueray movies as well as sell snacks and used dvds and games. I bought a wii game there for 3 Dollars which was nice. They still have the old crts there and the place isn't too badly in shap apart from the lack of customers.

>>4161309

i remember it clearly. it was july 1996 in alabama. i had just got back from boy scouts summer camp and my younger brother had rented pic related. my dad had rented groundhog day and we watched that that night. we never got snacks at blockbuster, but the one time i did it was that sugary green slime you squeezed out of a tube.

Oh gosh why didn't I see this thread earlier.
>Thunder Force V for god-tier music
>Trainspotting for god-tier dialogue

Actually, did those last ones exist? I was born in '97 but I remember them mostly as a '00s snack. Good as shit either way

>what are you choosing, /vr/?
Confirmed for never being to blockbuster. You don't get to choose, it's whatever the fuck is left on the shelf. Also fuck going to blockbuster. It was a shitstain compared to local places anyway.

>>4151554
Oh, nice they released a bluray two years ago for it. I had an 720p version from 2011 that was absurdly hard to find because it was a rip from an on air broadcast and wasn't available in any purchasable format.

This is definitely what I would have done. Although I played Mario RPG back then and hated it (didn't know what an RPG was, thought it was dumb I had to pick attacks from menus), I've now learned to love it, and I thought First Contact was awesome as a kid, but now I realize it's dumb as shit. Jax have always been the bomb, though.

i find it hilarious how people get nostalgic over blockbuster when they did a lot of scummy things as a company

>>4171736
Nope.

I mean I think they've only got movies but there's like 4 independently owned blockbusters left, in alaska, texas, and I think like oregan or something

>>4151538
Choicest choice of choices

I never got to rent from Blockbuster as a kid because they were the priciest store in town for rentals. Instead I got to rent from a local grocery store. Always wanted to go to Blockbuster though because I thought this machine was cool as fuck
