all you have to do is bounce between the tail and his red back

You really need some composite video filtering to make this game display as intended. Find a shader preset that lets you set the resolution to 160 and it will look alright. This is the only game I'm aware of that has a variable number of lag frames, sometimes X, sometimes X+1. IIRC, X is 2.

This game could have been good if it wasn't a rush job. Were any other Genesis games written in high level language?

Is Sonic's Pinball the darkest and edgiest 2D Sonic?

>>4858703

Strap in fucker.

As a kid, I thought Sonic's shoes were a smoking jacket.

>destroying the Veg-O machine in one go
Is there a more satisfying feeling?

dude I can beat stage one with one hand in my pants and both eyes closed
you can literally point the ball where to go and the marquee tells you what your goals are
did I play this in the Twilight Zone or what

>>4858660
cool filter bro

Sometimes Sonic flirted with this sort of dark ambiance. Weird that a side game was the only one that went whole hog. If they had gone this way with the edgier 3D Sonics it would have been fine, but no, they had to add endless "Badass" palette swaps of Sonic and disgusting human characters.

Fuck you Sonic Team.

I would love a sonic spinball type sonic game where he travels through the cities of the world cleaning them up one back ally rapist at a time. Just fix the jumping mechanics a bit and boom, badass edgy sonic people can enjoy

Toxic Caves is easy. I got through it when I was 5. I never got past the next stage with the laggy steam clucks until I emulated it as an adult

epic meme

What's with all the Sonic Spinball threads every few weeks. Is some e-celeb shilling this game to casuals or what?

It's medium hard at most, I beat it as a kid.

15 years on and it's still funny that people think 4chan is a place marketers deem valuable enough to spend resources doing covert advertising.

The narcissism of basement masturbators knows no bounds.

>Tail blows off mid-fight
what now, jeenuz?

>>4861326
is there any proof of companies or e-celebs shilling here?

>This is the only game I'm aware of that has a variable number of lag frames
what is any game whose computation of the next frame exceeds the timespan of the current frame?

>>4861331
Aside from internet famous bands shilling on /mu/ nah

I'm playing the Witcher 3 like that unironically.

>>4861605
Name one 2D game that sold at least a million copies.

>>4861760
Tetris - 170 million copies sold.

>>4861793
It has variable lag frames?

>>4861760
>>4861810
What the fuck is the relation?

>>4861760
Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire sold like 30 or 40 million.

>>4861974
Terraria sold 20mill and you can have the game skip frames or slow everything down when it can't render frames.

>>4862043
>Anon 1 says there's not many games with variable frames
>Anon 2 responds with a comment implying they're more common than you think
>Anon 3 responds by asking about sales numbers for 2D games out of the fucking blue
?????????

That sound he makes when you hit him is disgusting. It scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. The sound design/soundtrack for this game is fucking shit as well. Like, what even is this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGWSijvWxFI

>>4863756
It sounds fuckin awesome you douche.

>>4863792
yeah if you like metallic ear rape

>>4861687
To be fair, the filters compliment this game's art style very well.

I don't understand why people don't like sonic spinball. It's a pretty good pinball game.

CLUCK ALERT !!!

>>4858701
So just use X=2.
Add Mortal Kombat II SNES to your list. Input lag anywhere between 2 and 6 for various moves.

What retroarch shaders do you recommend for this, the Sonic waterfalls and the Earthworm Jim vertical stripe transparency? Hopeless noob that needs to be spoonfed.

>>4866934
If Blargg's isn't good enough, you can try the tvout presets with their resolution parameter set to 160.

Runahead should never exceed the minimum.

>>4858703
Yes because Americans basically what Shadow instead of Sonic. And now in retrospect everyone hates shadow so thanks Americans for creating one of the worst Sonic characters

>>4865624
its good but way too hard

>>4859723
The whole game is a cakewalk until the final level anyway.

>>4867048
and that's a good thing. Now we gotta post some goat music
