/vr/ - Retro Games

My "collection" fits into a single drawer.

>>4415802
drawers can be big, post what you got son, let me judge you

Here's my Doukyuusei collection

>>4415812
what kind of game is that?

>>4415813
Romance-themed town-exploration scheduling game. Go around town, figure out people's schedules, and then try to meet them at the right places during the three-week time limit.
Some conversation-choices stuff when you meet people and some point-and-click pixel hunting in parts. Also some exploring around to find jobs to do to have enough money for dates.
It's mechanically pretty simple but it does a good job of creating a feel of a town with people living their lives.

>>4415830
thats actually pretty interesting, like a combination of stick-rpg and franks adventure.

i dont know a lick of japanese, how is the sega saturn version? (for english speakers)

>>4415835
A chunk of the fun is in the text so I can't really recommend it strongly for non-Japanese speakers
Maybe there'll be a fan translation some day, although Elf games don't seem to get much attention for those besides YU-NO

>>4415838

>>4415797
Slightly off-topic, but how the fuck do you keep cheap shelves like that from sagging? Even just a row of light DVD cases makes it sag like a motherfucker.

>>4415797
>Saturn Baroque
Very nice

>>4415847
weight management, i organized my games in a way that theres less shelf bowing then before, but the top shelf, theres not much i can do its always going to bow like that with just 10 pounds even.

you gotta sacrifice organization for weight management with walmart shelving like mine.

>>4415849
coolest version, its my first real jrpg. rogue or whatever. the first person and visuals make it real unique! looks like a post-apocalyptic dune

I'd post pics but my "me room" is a pigsty.

>>4415812
Very Nice!

Do you have any of the artbooks? I still need to track those down; I've got that Elf Maniax book, though, which is pretty great.

>>4415876
Oh yeah, I have the original and the Saturn guide

>>4415812
It's the girl on the middle poster in >>4394889

My retro puzzle games. Some hidden gems are in there.

>>4416117
i like the cover arts, they all look interesting but the language barrier is a tough hurdle to get over.

>>4416117
Most games like that have a cute nonsense if any story at all, so if you like art, music and gameplay, it's completely unsreasonable to avoid them because of the language barrier, those are block puzzle games after all.

Oh you charmer~

Everything Nintendo is stuff from childhood, everything Sega is quite recent. I coulda sworn I had a couple other Mega Mans and stuff. Must be lost to time. Why I have a separate MarioBros cart when I have the triple cartridge I do not know.

>>4416231
oh shit, there we go!!
thats quite the drawer, anon, shining force 2!!!!
and i peep the battletoads. see if you can trade that in to gamestop.

also, how is t2 the arcade game? i want that for SNES

>>4415797
My ROMs are stored on 90's media and I emulate them on a 90's machine using 90's emulators. Where's your god now.

>>4416242
>also, how is t2 the arcade game?
Real good up to the truck protecting level. Beyond that I have no earthly idea. I'm considering actually getting a pen & paper to mark down the pattern of the HunterKiller.
I've heard bad things about the SNES version, but I can't recall what's supposedly wrong with it. I think it has a cool 3D stage the MD one lacks, though.

Taking that picture made me realise I need to buy me some fucking dust covers.

>>4416297
yes, dust covers are a worthwhile investment, they are relatively cheap in bulk on ebay.

although your drawer does most of the job already, but if you ever want to take them out of the drawer and display them like i do, consider buying the dust covers!!

>>4415797
old but still the nicest I've got

>>4416327

>>4416329

I wouldn't stack my hardware like that. Plastic can swell from all that pressure, causing unsightly white marks.

Here is my SNES collection. I made this for a past thread and I think the only thing I've added since is a loose copy of Ballz 3D.

I've since gotten like 4 more games since this, but its a complete enough picture.

Most of your collection consists of shovelware you can find at any flea market or garage sale for $1. Are these games that you actually play?

And you may want to give some consideration to imports. NA Game Boy releases are often censored, poorly translated and have removed content. I don't understand how people can consider subpar versions of these games "collectible."

>>4418129
Do you have any idea how much of a pretentious prick you sound like?

>>4418129
Are you baiting right now because those are all great games

>>4416327
fuckin sweet, looks nice and compact up top
what are the saturn games? i can only make out quake

>>4418140

No. But why post something on a public message board if it wasn't your intention to solicit opinions from other anons? Am I obligated to lavish you in praise regardless of the quality of your collection? I'm sorry, Anon. Your GB collection is pretty crappy.

>>4415797
Those shelves bow under the greatness that is Panzer General.

>>4415797
That is a nice collection, I am jelly of your Saturn games.

Part of what's left from over the years. I'm holding on to hope that I will one day find the games from my childhood.

>>4418563
Here's mine. I've only added Tiger-Heli since this was taken.

>>4418468
a perfect PS1 bundle you got there. absolutely perfect. whats the one blinded by the glare?

Still nobody with a complete Dragon Warrior I, II, III, IV set in any of these threads

>>4418581
Tiger heil is an excellent game I'm actually surprised it's cheap

>>4418731
And there never will be, so stop bringing it up.

>>4418867
It was $4 with the manual.

>>4418927
I got my copy loose for one, crisp dollar.

>>4418704
If you had half a brain, you'd google the slus code. It's Dino Crisis 2. Also, that bundle is crap. No variety to it at all.

>>4418879
You can't tell me what to do!

>>4418943

>>4418945

>>4418935
I can and I have. What I can't do is force you to listen.

Why does no one ever have a decent Saturn collection?

>>4418956
>Saturn
>decent
Pick one.

>>4418956
I am impressed. I think filthy casuals never have a decent collection of Sega Saturn games. They're all about either Nintendo or Sony.

>>4418956
>majority is US games

and you call that Saturn collection decent?

>>4418956

>>4418961
back to /v/!

>>4419037
>actually putting sonic R in that collage
That right there tells you how much you had to dig for games.

>>4419041
not an argument

>>4419043
When you replied to the post saying the saturn wasn't decent you automatically imply every single game you posted is decent. Sonic R is fucking awful as well as Sonic Jam.

Because posting loose PC-CD jewel cases is literally who cares.

Here are my games for my favorite handheld. I love this thing so much.

>>4419214
I got the first Pocket Love for Gameboy last month
>>/vr/thread/S4299598#p4299914
May find myself craving a Neogeo Pocket if the first two games leave me wanting more

>>4418118
>dude weeb lmao

Most of that isn't retro.

>>4418156
>the voice of the autist

>>4419037
Are there collages like this for other systems? Could you post N64 and SNES if they exist abd you have them?

>>4418934
>>4418156
you the same faggot?

>>4419315
Half of it is faggot, matter of fact, it all is realistically

>>4418956
its real expensive to collect for, im just starting out too so im getting just the ones i really like. next on my list are shining the holy ark, dragon force, iron storm, and strikers 1945. expensive fucking games duuuude all those are $300-350 combined

>>4418956
how much did snatcher set you back?
and holy shit gungrifffon had a US release???

>>4418934
rude.

you remind of this bitch.
she's rude like you.
and fat
likely like you, too

>>4419297
Wait what's DUDE WEED about that picture?

Out of curiosity, anyone here refraining from posting pics thanks to the shit takes from >>4418934
>>4418156
etc.?

I'm pretty sure he'd whine about the way I alphabetized shit, for example.

>>4419513
Not him but I'd whine too, especially if you put Legend of Zelda in the Z section, which always rustles my jimmies.

>>4419517
For the record I have them in "L." But at the same time it's that kind of autistic shit that makes this place unbearable. That and "REEEEEE NOT RETRONOTRETRONOTRE"

>>4419473

Ten bucks says she's a tumblrina.

>>4419535
ten bucks was just deposited in your paypal account

>>4419470
I paid $100 for it back in 2012.

This is my collection, right here.

Several whole libraries of a dozen consoles.
Including PAL and NTSC releases, unreleased games and prototypes. Everything for a particular console.

>>4419648

I always love posts like this.

>>4419648
you went against this thread's guidelines.
here's the (you)

>>4419648
That's not a collection, poorfag.

>>4419382

SNES has too many good games to fit on a collage like that

N64 has so few games in the entire library that there is no need to have a collage like that.

>>4419203

What did you say about loose CD-ROM jewel cases?

>>4420046
Wow
U just exposed yourself as a brainlet

>>4420074

Thanks for your contribution to the thread.

Not.

>>4420083
It takes a very high IQ to appreciate the rich and varied library of the N64

>>4420092

https://youtu.be/Oaa_JUb6PtU

>>4420092
Truth, brother. I consider my collection pretty good but I can still think of a dozen more titles I want.

>>4418956
I have some saturn games (like 15 or so) but the games are just so expensive these days.

I passed on an Albert Odyssey which was a deal at 140 CAD a few weeks ago and I'm instill kicking myself over it.

Also, how much did all of that run you? That's a very expensive pair of shelves you've got.

Here's my boxed sega stuff. I'm really leaning into the shooter library lately of the genesis but shooters are amongst the most expensive for the for the system.

I have 10 more games to add to that, but I'm too lazy to take another picture.

>>4420169
>Also, how much did all of that run you?

I have no idea. Probably around $2k or so. I did get some good deals in there, though. Snatcher for $100. Keio for $150. Kolibri and Dragonforce for $5 each. Also, most of those were bought years ago before the prices shot up to where they are today.

>>4420114
>he doesnt have turok rage wars grey cart

shit i dont either anymore.
oh well. shitty game.

>>4420205
is one of those games hamtaro:ham-hams unite! ? i loved that game and gave it away for weed. i regret it.

>>4419504
Can you read?

>>4415797
I had to sell all my systems and games for school. All I have left is a hand full of PlayStation games.

>>4420169
Some Saturn Games are ridiculous, but most of the games I play the most on it were in the 30-40 range. Most of the really expensive stuff is that way because of muh rare collectors item. House of the Dead for example. Incidentally I have that game, I bought the Japanese version for 20 dollars.

>>4420476
I guess not. Please explain it to me.

>>4420704
Wow are you really that afraid of NOT RETRO sperging?

>>4420720
He doesn't want to get banned for posting obscene images of younguns.

>>4420720
Yes.

>>4419214

It's such an awesome system. Great collection anon.

This is my NES stuff, that and an N8. I'm too lazy to take pics of my other stuff. Since the pic I've added bible adventures (blue cart), lunar pool and tecmo world wrestling.

I just mainly have the bible games as I find their fight with nintendo interesting. They aren't bad games really.

>>4418129
get a load of this edgy faggot. I bet you only play jrpgs if you play any of your games at all

>>4419439
PS2 and Xbox are so retro, right? So childhood, much nostalgia.

>>4420652
I never said anything about weed, I said weeb. My point was that that poster and people in general who think that calling people weebs for liking Japanese games is similarly annoying to bringing up that they like/smoke weed.

>>4420314
>Super Tennis - The Sega Card
Don't see SMS card games very often

>>4420371
Pretty much

>>4420773
i grew up in a super religious family and all i had other than mario 1 was exodus and king of kings. exodus is legit good game.

>>4420309
Did you make them shelves yourself?

>>4419721
Did I?

It's not a PC folder.
When you use a flashcart, you're not emulating.

No guidelines broken.

>>4419985
Do I sense jealousy?

All the ROMs for even the extremely rare games.
They take up almost no space.
All the code is there just like in a physical cartridge.
It's almost free, just the price of the microSD card.

Who's the poorfag again? The one who wastes money on a piece of plastic or the one who has the games and keeps the money?

>>4421912
>Do I sense jealousy?
What's there to be jealous of? I could easily go the cheap route and emulate on my PC. I choose not to because unlike poorfags/piratefags, I can afford physical copies of games.

>Who's the poorfag again? The one who wastes money on a piece of plastic or the one who has the games and keeps the money?
>wastes money on a piece of plastic
>waste money
I think you just proved my point that you're the poorfag here. Only poorfags worry about money getting wasted. Why is that? Maybe because you have trouble keeping up with the rent, bills or both. Maybe you have trouble putting food on the table. Maybe you have trouble paying child support. You see unlike you, my income level puts me in a much better situation. I own my own house, my own car and a store selling computer parts. So I got more than enough money to afford anything I want. I got thousands of games complete in box with manuals. I got multiple game consoles. If anyone should be jealous, it's a poorfag like you who can't afford the collection I have. You see, $100 dollars to you looks like $10 to me. $1000 to you looks like $100 to me. That's the difference between our income levels.

>>4420720
Hey man, be careful, you might offend some autistic neet because you have Summoner (October 2000, NOT RETRO) in the same frame as Final Fantasy IX (July 2000, retro classic)

>>4421128
No, I used to live near an IKEA. these are Billy shelves with 2 or 3 added inserts.

>>4415797
Jealous?

>>4420309
Reminds me Luke Morse. I like it.

>>4421957
On that note, the IKEA "Lack" side tables can be used to make (pretty decent looking) shelves for consoles.

>>4421951
Yet, here you are on a Sunday on an anonymous message board pantomiming how big your e-penis is to people you will never meet.

>>4421958

I do, but they're loose carts. I do have I-IV CIB for Famicom FWIW.

>>4421013
>>4421016
Here you go :)

Sadly the box on the moeshit GBC is no longer mint because the original batteries they packed in with it exploded (thankfully I'm lazy and don't put stuff back when I'm done with it so the system's safe).

They're cheap, just buy one.

>>4423019

those of you with large numbers of consoles hooked up simultaneously, how do you deal with the power cables?

I only have one outlet in the room, and obviously need more than two things plugged in at once. I've heard repeatedly that daisy chaining power strips is a bad idea. Is there a a 20-something-plus outlet power strip out there?

>>4418057
get a load of this nerd

>>4421093
You're a retard, kids like you should be banned on site.

>>4423547
Why do you need them all plugged in simultaneously?

>>4423614
because its easier to put them on a shelf hooked up than it is to put them in boxes and fill up my closet?

I know that I could have them set up but not plugged in, but having to pull out the TV each time to do so would be enough of a hassle that I'd probably just leave one system hooked up and let the rest collect dust.

Don't put your powerboard behind the TV, then. Put it out in the open.

>>4423668
I'd still have to deal with video cables.

Gameboy,
plus an all in one cheapo Sega Handheld.

>>4423675
Also:
That Contra is probably a repro and the pic is missing my collection of Gameboy sportsgames(wtf was I thinking, Pool and NBA Allstar challenge, for crying out loud. Tennis and Golf are fucking awesome though.)

Way too much non-/vr/ in that photo, though; better off pulling the 20th century stuff off the shelf and making their own photo

>>4423547
>I've heard repeatedly that daisy chaining power strips is a bad idea
"Don't plug a power strip/surge protector into a power strip/surge protector" is really old advice designed to stop people from overloading outlets with too many high-power appliances and incandescent light bulbs running at the same time.
There's no practical difference between a 20-outlet power strip and daisy-chainged power power strips giving you 20 outlets.

>>4423675

Sadly I lost Harvest Moon and F-Zero somewhere along the way.

>>4423675

I forgot to put Podracer in the Pic.

>>4423675
It seems like I own almost every worthwile racing game the N46 has to offer, missing maybe one or two Rally games and world driver championship.

The ol collection

>>4423669
Leave them plugged in and just get a couple of switchers.

I already have two extrons in the mail, I was getting noticeable signal degradation from using standard a/v switch boxes.

I'm considering getting some rack mount surge protectors, just looking for some kind of equivalent for power to go with the extrons I'm waiting on.

>>4415797
I'm not a collectorfag with a need to display my shit. Pretty much all of my games are in boxes for easy access and protection.

>>4425357
dude i have 1000 plus carts. where in the fuck could i store those. Oh I see you just really insecure and justifying you puny collection.

>>4423685
Yeah, I haven't gotten around to it quite yet. I bought too much crap in Japan. That and spending too much time on 4chan and not actually playing video games.
