god dammit i am loving the mario paper, he is so flat. someone come up to him, they say 'mario paper, can fit below door jam?' and mario paper he jump and say 'wah ha!' and slide under

Tenchu Wrath of Heaven. Also to keep it /vr/, I'm going through Tomb Raider 2.

I'm going to try Baroque despite it only being in Japanese.
I think the aesthetic alone is going to be worth it.

>>6692873
Haha your so right and funny.
Would be funny if mario did paper poos but then said "dont-a worry-a" then got a rubber and just rubbed it out because its only drawn on the paper lol

>>6692 taking turns after every race with some friends to see how far we get.

The whole game is overrun by bots, but I get a two week ban for logging in while running a VPN.

Hitler was right

Donkey Kong 64. I lost my 101% save file so i'm working to get it back... been in a Rare platformer mood anyway so it shouldn't be too bad.

>>6692867

Choice selection, OP.

Can't go wrong with the kino.

>>6692867
Playing some Zelda Ocarina of time on my flat-screen TV

>>6692873
i want to play it

>>6692867
Panorama Cotton, Wonder Boy in Monster Land (Genesis), Wonderful Everyday (Subarashiki Hibi)

>>6692867
I've recently started playing Breath of Fire. Still can't believe /vrpg/ finally exists on here. If there was a horror board (not quite /x/) I won't even need /v/. Was thinking of hooking my N64 up again, but I don't have a CRT currently so it would look like ass.

>>6692867
>N64
God I fucking hate nintenyearolds. N64 is fucking shit and nobody likes it.

finishing super mario bros. 3 for the first time

>>6695286
Hello zoomer,
I think you accidentally clicked /vr/.
/v/ is five boards up from here.
Don't worry, we all make mistakes when we're new. Take care.

Gonna try out Plok for the first time. I overlooked that one growing up.

>>6695286
>nintenyearolds

just beat sonic 2. fuck that last level

mario 64

Playing the real kino
Mario golf

Best girl

>>6693048
isn't it on wii in english?

>>6697771
Yeah I liked Peach Pie too.

>>6695286
He's not wrong.

just playing the best version of doom

Finishing up Shodai Nekketsu Kōha Kunio-kun today. Not sure what to play after.

Just finished Quackshot for the first time, never got past the viking ship as a kid. Neat little game, a bit cryptic at times.

>>6701476
what did you think of the music in Transylvania?

>>6701501
I used to hate it when I was young but it's oddly comforting now.

>>6701509
really? that's interesting, as i always thought it was a banger.

>>6701518
Yeah it's really well done and all but I still prefer the duckburg one.

>>6701532
that's fair, as it too is a jam.
how did you receive (as a player) the mechanics of leaving/ returning to levels and what not- interesting, no? cant think of many other gens platforms that do that off the top of my head

>>6701547
It's a nice way of connecting different levels, gives you a bigger sense of exploration. And if you go to a level you can't still progress any further because you're missing an item at least they allow you to fly back to the very same place so it's a nice compromise. But as I've been playing this game since I was like 6 I never stopped to think about it really.
When I was younger I would get stuck at the viking ship because I would usually run out of lives/continues going around the ship not noticing you had to use the plungers on one of the walls to find the exit

>>6701556
i thought so too anon.
i see, for me, an associate of mine had it as a kid so i was only exposed to it infrequently. never saw past the desert level. however i felt it inferior to castle and or world of illusion (which i owned) took me till later in life to appreciate it.

it shines like a diamond next to fantasia though.

played maui mallard yt?

>>6701578
>however i felt it inferior to castle and or world of illusion
Yeah I had the double cart Quackshot+Castle of Illusion because PALland and always prefered quackshot. And yes I'm probably going to try and finish castle of illusion next, I think I got stuck at the queen of heart's stage as a kid but I'm not sure.
>played maui mallard yt?
Nope, is it good?

>>6692867
I’m past halfway in Oracle of Ages. Capcom really went overboard with these games. The dungeon layouts are insanely confusing.

>>6701609
i believe it was a pal exclusive no? (maui mallard) havent played it myself but the aesthetic seems to be of sega/disney quality (perhaps im confused but it was exc. to somewhere)

do it, i think from what we've discussed so far that it may appeal to you.

>>6701621
I looked donald duck in maui malard up and it looks promising.
I remember Castle of illusion being slightly unsettling. Was it just faggy 6 year old me or do you think the game really has some dark undertones to it?

>>6701667
it looks nice but has mixed reports on game play from what ive heard, however don't let that put you off investigating for yourself.

yeah i can feel that, i think some of rthe musical /thematic elements can pair nicely together with the low fidelity of earlier titles on the MD to produce an eerie quality, esp. as we are sensitive to those emotions as children.

at least IMO

>>6692867
I started a Paper Mario 64 playthrough recently, and I noticed that all the sprites look extremely dark.

>>6701719
Are you playing on hardware, emulated, VC emulation?

>>6701719
>>6701726
Hardware, I'll take a picture.

>>6701729
>>6701726
Looking at this picture it doesn't look so bad, but when I started it up for the first time in years it really stuck out to me. It's more or less what this image; >>6701719 conveys.

>>6701761
I don't know man, that looks pretty normal to me.

>>6701761
Honestly the sprites here look brighter than I remember

>>6692867
Just finished this after seeing it in a thread here a week or two ago. It actually has some features that I never saw before, such as directional spikes that prevent you from backtracking.

>>6701761
looks normal to me.
you sure you not experiencing some mandella effect?

playin some shmups

>>6701860
>what is portrait orientation

>>6692867
I don't know what to play anymore bros, nothing is fun anymore :(

>>6701939
Clean your room

>>6701939
try something new?
are you suffering IRL anon?

>>6701943
It's clean, Petersson
>>6701956
I tried dreamcast, it was fun, but now the novelty is gone
>are you suffering IRL
Nah

>>6701972
>nah
good to hear.

maybe investigate a series you've been mildly curios about? or perhaps retread some old favorites? even try some arcade titles?

failing that take a break from gaming for a few days / weeks and come back fresh/

>>6701972
Have you confronted the dragon of chaos, roughly speaking?
No, but really, the more you force it the harder it is to settle down and play something. Give it some time without thinking too much about it and then when someone interesting crosses your mind just give it a go

>>6702029
>that .jpg

muh feels

>>6702019
>>6702029
Yeah. I guess I'll take a break, I'm needing it. Let's see how it goes.

>>6702042
get some strange and youll be right as rain anon

>>6692867
I'm confused, are marpigs still allowed to be discussed here?
