Tonight, I was finally able to experience the unemulatable beauty of this vector game :D

>>	Anonymous Sat May 4 03:02:33 2019 No.5547990 >>5547978 They were Tempest and Star Wars. I can see how the bright lines would be cool 30 years ago but today, it's just not that impressive, I'm sorry. It just doesn't look that different emulated on a normal screen.

>>	Anonymous Sat May 4 03:04:03 2019 No.5547994 >>5547990 Tempest isn't nearly as impressive as Asteroids.

>>	Anonymous Sat May 4 13:57:44 2019 No.5548883 >>5547971 Most don't. Some do. Why are you doing things wrong, anon? Use VectorMAME with a vector arcade monitor.
