/vr/ - Retro Games

>>5666128
i am irrationally angry at the presence of an LCD tv. Please remove self k thnx

>>5666137
It has 0 input lag with component and 480i looks fine. There is no space for a fat CRT in my room and the flat ones are hard to find. (Actually the CRTs are hard to find overall these days.)

>>5666162
>It has 0 input lag
nope

>>5666221
Yes you can turn off all filters and on this model and the input lag becomes negligible. If I let you play on this setup and on a old one later, you would not be able to tell me which one is which.

>>5666221
I have the same monitor. There’s 9ms lag so .7ms more than the fastest CRT. Does less than 1ms make a difference to you?

>>5666242
This is possibly the most stupid post on /vr/ right now.

>>5666242
It's impossible. Every analog crt tv has the same input lag. On lcd 240p analog signal must be processed to digital and then upscaled.
You're a complete retard and you have no idea what the fuck are you talking about.

>>5666284

>On lcd 240p analog signal must be processed
>Any and every emulator ever PUTS OUT 240p signal

>>5666315
there is no problem if emulator uses digital signal
you absolute fucking moron
we were talking about original retro console that ALWAYS PRODUCED ANALOG 240p OR 480i SIGNAL.
LCD is completely digital it CAN'T DISPLAY AN ANALOG SIGNAL WITHOUT MAKING IT DIGITAL.
you dumb FUCK

So no retro at all besides a homebrew rom being played on a cheap LCD. If janitors see this; Please delete this thread. Not retro.

>>5666798
>Emulators are not retro
>You have to play on overpriced faulty 30 year old hardware

>>5666798
Also it's a DSi with homebrew. I don't have a 3ds. And the GC controller is for VCs (which are all shit btw)

Don't mind the wii

>>5667126
The Wii is the best all-for-one solution for anything not 3d and it's dirt cheap. Why all the hate?

>>5666162
crts hard to come by. nope

>>5666162

>>5666232
If a digital conversion takes place, it has lag. Don’t talk about shit you don’t understand, zoomer.

>>5667247
>>5667242
it's extremely easy to find shitty ones for sure, but anything other than side-of-the-road composite only chink sets is either marked up by ebay/craigslist sellers, or bought the moment it's listed by retro gamers

>>5667273
I'm OP and I live on a small island in the North Sea. I can get a CRT for free in the Uk, but shipping something as big and heavy, might cost more than getting a brand new 60 inch flatscreen.

>>5667273
Anecdotal, but there's literally always a trinitron available in my area for free or $20 at most and I live in a rural Indiana town.

>>5667341
I wish I could find stuff like that, my town is full of college kids, so there's a lot of gamers and such who'll scour local listings for anything retro and snatch it up, which drives up the price and scarcity of local listings
pic related, first good CRT ad I've seen in months. Decently fair price given it's recapped though

>>5667358
>125 US Dollaridoos
bruh...

I cleaned up the knick-knacks since the last time I posted to see how it looked. I was on the fence about them anyway

>>5667426

>>5667429

>>5667434
Gameboy cassette cases

I'm actually making some labels right now. I love the way it looks

>>5667471
It worked out really well. And cassette cases are practically free at goodwills and garage sales

>>5666284
>Every analog crt tv has the same input lag
This is so, so wrong. Your first day?
>>5666276
Are my measurements wrong? What specific numerical values do you suggest are correct, or are you a retard?

>>5667426
looks comfy

>>5666315
>>5667250
>>5667257
these macros are really funny, do you have any more?

>>5666325
PL as fuck for some reason.

Looks like a nice, comfy spot when the overhead lights are off.

My setup is currently very cramped, since we live in a small one bedroom apartment. This is from a few months ago but nothing's changed.

>>5667426

>>5666128
Basically pic related with a Buffalo SNES pad plugged in.

>Looks like a nice, comfy spot when the overhead lights are off.

You got it. Those warm lights cut down the white glow of the TV and laptop. My cat likes to visit and share my beanbag chair footstool and it gets real cozy in there.

>>5667126
An abundant amount of soul, thank you christ for a good post.

>>5667126
tidy your room for fucks sake

>>5667126
That setup gives me anxiety. I like the idea though, but it's just too cramped for me famm.

>>5667426
Nice setup, very cozy. Respect for the A2000.

Same as last time. I need to build my entertainment unit.

>>5670352
That's so gaudy

>>5670426
nice and clean, I like it a lot. Are those speakers on those shelves? How do you find them? I'm hoping to get myself a receiver and powered speakers eventually.

Bloody hell anon, mighty fine bait.

This is what it looks like when someone starts a collection and then grows up and organizes, because they had a kid. Very mature, I love it

Remember! Never play retro games on a HD TV EVER!!!
Also this is my 2005 Panasonic CRT with my GameCube. My Rugrats VHS Collection can also be seen.

>>5666128

>>5666128

Enjoy your Input Lag!

>>5671630
Imput*

That wooden piece is there because the stand isn't tall enough for the TV to not hit the fridge on the left.

>>5671612
Fuck yeah, ELO

>>5671561
Ha, no. no kid... yet. I've just always liked things to be organized. That's another reason it's so comfy down there- my wife leaves the rest of the house a cluttered mess

>>5667426
saved and goalspilled

>>5671593
>gamecube
Not retro, get out.

>>5671192
They're little Harman Kardon speakers that I got for free. Their not bad, and paired with a sub they are perfectly fine for retro games.

>>5671612
too cramped, you need to do some dusting, too much nintendo/pokemon shit.

Makes me sick.

>>5671612
those hideous plates on the wall... are you a 90yr old woman? also, paint your walls. it looks like you live in a slum

>>5672243
Damn right. Managed to get original prints for Out of the World and Discovery some years back, best albums in my collection.
>>5672884
>Complaining about too much Nintendo shit on /vr/
Lad. Also my space is completely dust free, tyvm.
>>5673203
>Hideous plates
Steam Engines are badass, fuck you.
>A slum
That is correct though.

>>5666162

Oooooooh no... haha

>>5666128
Shit.
>>5667126
Good.
>>5667426
Good.
>>5668093
Too flat but good.
>>5668146
Shit.
>>5670385
Good.
>>5670426
Too flat but good.
>>5671593
Looks digital and 16:9. If so, shit. If not, my mistake.
>>5671612
Shit.
>>5671613
Shit.
>>5672223
Shit.

>>5666128
it's not even retro.
the 3rd party Gamecube controller makes me gag

>>5673379
i meant 480p

>>5673386
It's better than the 50€ restock ssb version from last year. I know someone whos top10 in 16 star m64 on VC and he uses exactly the same one.

>>5671242

>>5673693
You really like fluffy things, don't you?

>>5673717

>>5667143
exactly because of it, it's an elitist thing

>>5673203
Those are comfy af.

>>5667143
I don’t even hate it, really. There’s just this one Brazilian autist who never shuts up about it. Now I shitpost about the Wii whenever I think he’s around.

>>5667358
There are good crts that aren't pvmemes
Almost any trinitron is what you should be looking for.

>>5667426
What a strategically placed cat

>>5673374
Your setup's pretty cringe if you're over the age of 18 actually.

>>5666162
>0 input lag

>>5667143
WiiU is slightly harder to set up but is better IMO
But yeah, Wii is much cheaper and faster to set up

>>5675863
>>5675863
cool einstein pic

>>5675863
TV is cool. Everything else is cringe.

>>5673382
I got a flat Sanyo crt that takes s-video and component for free on the side of the road,
It works great for the most part (component's green input doesn't seem to work) I just wish I didn't get that damn distortion every time any game scrolls

Shitty ass phone camera edition

>>5678026
Kinda lame. Great game though

>>5666798
Can I post my stack?

It's a CRT TV with a Wii, N64, Saturn, Xbox, and PS2 attached.

>>5677519
At first I thought you were one of those EDC weirdos who cares pistols and hunting knives with them in the suburbs

>>5666128
I have that same tv actually except 55" model. I've literally used as my main tv until couple weeks ago when I bought a new tv. I have it in my bedroom now, but its amazing for older consoles like ps2 and n64. s-video quality for my n64 on it looks amazing and no noticeable lag time at all.

>>5679243
Actually scratch that, its 52". Always thought it was 55" till I measured before buying my new tv. Either way, for being a tv from 2008 it holds up to todays standards amazingly. Only ever had one problem with it, few capacitors went bad(actually had a recall) and had it fixed for free.

>>5667126
hey i have that same CRT

>>5678753
lol no, the only guns I own are toys =D

>>5675895
I'm not sure if you're meming

>>5678748
>N64
>Saturn
go right ahead.
