>>8968884
It is not on GOG, but on Steam. Maybe check some abandonware sites.

paper anon jesus christ how

Well, one place where I reacquired a lot of the old DOS games I liked was Home of the Underdogs. I think the site is still up.

unrelated to this thread but
is there a normie version of dosbox?

i was able to install a few titles but NOT the one i wanted - i cant ever get it to install :(

its a special one from my childhood-
i know i can just play it in my browser but i want to be prepared for when the internet gets shut down for good

>normie version of dosbox
you mean a retard proof version of dosbox? dosbox already is a normie version of real ms dos on real hardware

which game are you talking about btw? most dos rips from abandonware sites don't need to be installed, they usually already are, and it's just a matter of running the right exe file

Get the PS1 version.

>>8971024
But do you have this?

>>8968884
It's on IGG games tho

>>8971316
There's the enhanced community edition of DOSbox. This could get you started: https://youtu.be/lq5vhiSWPV4

Not that exact one, but one a lot like it.

>>8973595
What game is in the middle bellow the PSX game?

>>8973595
Looks the same to me, actually. With the big ass book inside?

>>8974445
Sorry for the blurry ass picture.

I like those PS2 limited edition boxes. There's something cool about them having just the PS logo and "PlayStation 2" test on a colorful background instead of the whole black stripe.
The same goes for Japanese PS1 games, having just a box with the PS logo in the corner is a lot more elegant than what they did with NTSC-U (utterly shit label + disgusting cover art in many cases) and PAL boxes (not as bad, but a weird aspect ratio).

It is a card game in the Shinji to yuukaina nakamatati series. I was going to translate the title, but it is kind of offensive in some languages according to Wikipedia when I looked it up.

>>8974445
It is. That's right. With the bonus CD track3 that is from the 2nd game.

>>8974632
Limited editions they are allowed to be more creative with the packaging. In japan, standard DVD case releases do have the black stripe across the top saying "Playstation 2". PS1 games just need the little logo box in the corner of the artist's choosing.

m8 where do you get/keep all these obscure and foreign games? will you show us your full collection?

>>8971024
Post the silky thighs cover art

>>8976671
whats that evangelion game?

>>8971778
i'll keep searching
the game is dinosaur safari

>>8977392
That's Iron Maiden

>>8971316
>but i want to be prepared for when the internet gets shut down for good
Then you should rather get and study an army survival manual since you'll be playing dinosaur safari IRL

>>8971316
eXoDOS might be what you're looking for.

They’re pretty obscure

On a scale from 1-10, how good are the princess maker games and what makes them good?

>>8976737
As you can see in a prior image, I got those direct from the developers. I got a lot of games from clearance bins back in the day. They are mostly obscure because they ended out in those bins because no one wants them. That's why they tend to be Sega games, and I grew a liking to them as they were the only affordable games.

>>8977069
I don't know what you're talking about. There are more cultured art out there. The Princess Maker series are just raising sims.

>>8977392
That is the Saturn edition of the first Girlfriend of Steel game. Mana is best girl, but she only appears in that game.

I've been looking for an excuse to use Princess Maker 2 music in my custom Doom 2 maps for a while.

On God, PM2's OST is so fukken good.

>>8980312
I don't know man. That Princess Maker 2 cover art is doing things to me. I know she's supposed to be my daughter, but those tights and those thighs are doing things to me thay I would be completely ashamed of if that was my actual daughter.

>>8981052
>I know she's supposed to be my daughter

She supposed to be your STEP-daughter. Not your genetic one. Don't feel too bad

>>8981052
Well, it is also beautiful on the inside.

>>8982552
The art in this franchise is so great

>>8981756
That's good. At least I feel a little bit more normal. Postong on /g/ has nade me more of a degenerate than I wish to be in all truthfulness. I need to stop posting there.

Man, Old GAINAX really drew aome amazing art. Too bad all their talent left in over thw last decade or so. Now they're relegated to drawing kinda garbage kid's anime.
