/vr/ - Retro Games

You are such piece of shit anon.
He "showcased" that a Dolphin fork as VR support.
And because Dolphin is Wii + Gamecube that means all of Dolphins Virtual Console games or game collections like Master Quest.
So basically its pretty great
At the least play Path of Neo and Enter the Matrix

I don't understand how I offended you

>>5032551
Would love to play some flight sims and racing games in VR but might have to pass on Zelda

You okay, man?

They really do need to put more funding into mental health,

>>5033354

This board is a testament to that, retro gaming is not a healthy hobby for some people.

>>5033391
It's the people that are not healthy. The hobby has nothing to do with it

Trinus PSVR is an absolute piece of shit. I spent hours trying to get the thing working, then after many frustrating attempts of plugging/unplugging under different configurations of software settings, it finally works, then locks the PC out from continuing because it's a trial. Bought the full version, then suddenly it stops working again.

This brings me to a question I keep thinking recently. Is it just me or is software generally a lot more shitty and unstable than it was back in the 2000s, awkward system setups aside?

ITT: 30 yo cringelord gets his first VR headset in 2018. Wew lad. Don't see what this has to do with any "backlog". Does anyone refuse to play a game because it's not VR?

>>5033445
No anon. Settle down.

I am in the process of playing Chrono Cross again. I am going to quit right now until I have support from Squaresoft & sony. My uncle works for nintendo, and said that Nintendo is skipping this tech, and their next thing will actually put you inside of the game. Imagine being Link, and your little brother erases the save.....Because that is how it happened to Hendrix.

But seriously, Chrono Cross and other PSX era JPGs would look amazing in VR. World maps and battles would be pretty neat.

>>5032551
There's only one correct way in which VR can benefit retro games.

>>5032551
wow i actually might get it this running tomorrow
i already had psvr because it was the entry level vr option, and of course trinus vr for porn

its also worth noting the vid shows vr working in morrowind

>>5032551
>this guy

You meant SuperRedditHop, the very essence of Reddit made into a man?

VR will make JRPG turn-based battles even more hellishly boring by making you feel trapped inside them.

Metroid Prime in Dolphin VR is still the single most mind blowing gaming experience I have ever had. It really feels like it was always meant to be played in VR

>>5033523
I know you are fucking around but first person Zelda is actually a possibility now, they are still using ideas from ocarina of time development like open world, they are probably going to experiment with first person for the next game.

So is this actually good for CRT emulation? You can actually simulate distance with the screen so it makes sense.

>>5033714
The gameplay has the exact speed to it to function well in VR, hope it gets imitated.

>>5033714
The one caveat the guy in the video mentions is that apparently you can't freelook with your head? That you still need to rotate the weapon to the edge of the screen to turn around

>>5033714
I tried the cross-eyed trick with this screenshot and it's backwards.

>>5032551
Dolphin has already kind of supported it for a while. It's not really anything amazing or technologically challenging to accomplish. That said, it's straight up shit in most games because they weren't designed for VR at all. Things that weren't meant to be seen with the original camera system usually don't even exist, and 2D shit gets really glitchy. Mapping head movements directly to the camera just breaks most games since the camera wasn't designed to be moved by anything besides the analog stick with severe restrictions.

Even in the few games where it does work, it's not really that interesting. Most of these worlds are extremely low resolutions with nothing of interest. It might look okay from a camera 30 feet behind your character, but in first person it becomes very clear that you're just walking on a boring textured plane.

>>5033714
That's an example of a game that almost works but is just too damn glitchy to tolerate a play through. If someone actually spent the time to mod the game to play well with VR it has the potential to be great, though.

>>5033768
Divergence vs convergence.

>>5033750

No, you can. That problem is only in Metroid Prime 3 and there's a disable code for it.

>>5033779

You don't have to mod it, you just have to know which AR patches to enable and which gameshark codes to apply in the per-game tweaks menu.

>>5032551
super bunny hop is one of the only youtubers i can stand to watch about games, him and bithead1000 who i found about here.

>>5033748
>So is this actually good for CRT emulation?
Yes. Yes it is.

>>5034282
That would be too blurry with current HMDs. Maybe when we get 4K/eye ones.

>>5034306
It's actually fine. Assuming you're using a regular Oculus or Vive, you should be able to watch up to 480p video just fine before the sde kicks you in the balls. An old 240p crt is perfectly okay with current vr hardware.

>>5033687
please stop talking about that other website you visit

>>5032551
>blah blah vr is still buggy shitty and expensive
I'll sleep on it for another 10 years

that asshole needs a haircut

i ended up getting this working but the resolution is so low on the psvr that its not worth it yet

>>5033646
Can I simulate a collection of carts and boxes?

>>5038039
You sort of can in NRA. Everything looks like a SNES cart though, and the console was redesigned to be a generic one to avoid copyright issues. Console emulation is also kinda garbage, it was really meant as a MAME frontend.

This is still under development though, and is looking great. You can even fuck about with the video cables now.

>>5038093
Oh shit this is great

Luckily, it's possible for the mentally unwell, to heal.

>>5038093
Putting food items in simulations is over the line for this time.
