/vr/ - Retro Games

Zoom zoom.

Guaranteed replies. Can someone change the locks to the doors to 4chan and just put me out of my misery already

My copy of the game had the hyperrealistic bleeding nostalgia critic.

>>9293724
I'm 34. Just never had a Nintendo console aside from the NES close.

My copy just had Mario turn to me and call me a nigger

>>9293771
Every copy is personalized.

>>9293779
In mine Wario was there and he had a gun

>>9293771
Yeah, he used to look at my Michael Jordan poster on my wall and say "NIGGER".

Are there any oldfags left on this board or did they all get banned?

>>9293785
They probably got fed up and left, which is just about where I am with the entire website myself, honestly.

>>9293782
Mine too.

>>9293785
>banned
Yea, /vr/ is like that.

>>9293791
Where else is there to go?

>>9293762
You're still a retarded zoomer at heart

>>9293801
At this point, I'm realizing that posting in general just isn't very enjoyable to me anymore. I'm just addicted to it. So, outside I guess.

>>9293806
That's rude.

>>9293812
but true
Mario 64 isn't scary, only retards think that

>>9293816
So, you are saying that there are more people who think like me? To me, that kinda proves it's actually scary.

>>9293724

>>9293765
This except unironically. As a wise 12 year old I was actually put off by n64s glaring syatem limitations (what use is 64 bit for a 32mb cartridge), but I've grown to highly appreciate the esoteric dreamlike floating polygon levels that make up the game. As a youth though I was highly turned off by the incohesion...the "DURRR WE CANT ACTUALLY MAKE A WORLD SO .. 8 BIT PAINTINGS!"

>>9293816
no one thinks that except for masterbaiters like ohpee and literal prepubescent children (picrel)

>>9293831
>groupthink means it's true
Fuck off back to whatever normalfag social media cesspit you crawled out of

>>9293849

>>9293849
Of course it is, lol. If a group of people thinks the same, it means the object indeed causes that emotion.

Why do people keep trying to make Mario 64 spooky? It’s not any weirder than previous or future entries.

>>9293762
>I'm 34. Just never had a Nintendo console aside from the NES close.

Try to imagine thinking the SNES was amazing, and then you get this thing for Christmas and turn it on and Mario is talking and in 3D and you can PLAY with his FACE

>>9293972
I would, but my threads 404 because nobody cares to talk about third and fourth gen games on /v/. We should really have a dedicated board for those games.

Oh wait, that was here. Emphasis on "was".

Right? Kids' minds got blown

>>9293978
Something about early CG is eerie to zoomers that grew up with advanced shaders. Just you wait until we stop seeing grass pop-in, that generation is going to start calling all grass beforehand "ghost grass" and write creepypastas about hyperrealistic blood splattered on the flat ground before being obscured by de spooky ghost grass.

If it's unfamiliar, then it's spooky. Oh well.

>>9293980
Nice. Love when people here are friendly.

>>9294120
there's no safe space for faggots here, sorry

The vast majority of people that have played mario 64 did so with emulation, and nobody here can accept that

>>9294124
Thanks for proving my point

Lmfao check the timestamp of the screencap and the post. Maybe stop playing guess who on an anonymous forum?

I miss when men could just let nice moments linger in silent but mutual appreciation instead of getting all gay and sappy and circlejerking over it.

>>9294187
>Talking about feelings is gay
yes, it is. as a man you are born into this life to work hard and suffer in silence. that strength is what allowed your ancestors to survive and it is the only reason your retarded ass even exists right now. the decay of masculinity and acceptance of "emotion" is a cancererous tumor on the human race.

Imagine needing to congratulate yourself

>Anon said calmly as he clicked "Post" on the video game board. Sitting back in his gamer chair, he unfastened the velcro on his fingerless gloves and took a big swig of mountain dew. Although he knew he would be contested, he knew he was in the right. He knew he had won.

>>9294197
And yet you felt a need to justify ignoring your emotions. The irony is palpable

>They probably got fed up and left, which is just about where I am with the entire website myself, honestly.
It's just reflex to load up /vr/ at this point. Most posts here are so mind numbingly repetitive and dumb you could probably code a naive bot that's indistinguishable from the real board posts (if 4chin isn't overrun with bots already). It's funny because this is actually making me more productive since I have nowhere else on the internet to kill time, but I wish I could quit this place for once.

>>9294220
>Projecting outrage on the other guy because he's too emotionally compromised to think straight

>>9294221
Not really, since they are both easily attained. Your dad did say he loves you, didn't he?

So what's the /vr/dict? Is talking about one's feels gay or not? I need to know now that I spent $1000 on a good CRT what's the next big thing in retro gaming.

>>9294236
I broke you with just a single word. Imaine what would happen if I really wanted to break you lol.

>>9294225
That's pretty much where I am too, anon. I'm realizing more and more that I just don't enjoy posting on the internet in 2022 and probably won't do it very much, if at all, anymore in the future. I'm in that same situation; I don't really enjoy anywhere else online anymore and find myself continuing to use 4chan purely out of habit.
It's frustrating. When the quality of discussion here is high, it's much better than anything any other website out there could offer to me right now, so it keeps me coming back. But that seems to happen less and less often these days.

>>9294219

Talking about your feels with your bros is one of the defining traits of fraternity as far as I'm concerned. Anyone afraid of their feels is no bro of mine. I don't think anon did anything wrong by voicing his appreciation for someone else's kindness.

you're right. if only i could be an emotional homosexual that spent 16 years on 4chan, perhaps then i would be cool like the negroes

>>9294240
Of course he did, I don't buy the zero-emotion hypermasculinity crap that other anon derailed the discussion with. I just think people take things too far the other direction in ways that ruin nice moments by calling too much attention to them, that's all.

your dad's workboot sock is not a "based autist girlfriend", brother

>>9294273
As much as I want to agree with you, unfortunately we all express ourselves in our own ways. As you can ceer.

This was before the weighted bone deformation vertex shaders became common pipeline things. Deforming 3D models on the fly was legitimately interesting technology.

>>9294332
one guy is malding he got called out for discussing his feelings. no father figure, step parents didn’t hug him, etc.

>>9294332
somebody casually mentioned that sharing your feelings is for faggots and several unloved autistics threw a shit fit and began a reddit-tier character assassination that resulted in them calling themselves gay. it was weird, but we're cleaning it up, just hang tight.

>>9294335

that's fair
remember when this thread was about mario? well it was about a mario shitpost but anyway
what mario games have you guys been playin recently? the wrecking crew thread encouraged me to give that a try and i'm really likin it, rn i'm on phase 19, almost had it once but then i got fucked over near the end

>>9294364
I love you, too.

Someone dropped the hammer. Now back to discussing the scary parts in Mario 64..

>>9294340
Wait... We were talking about feelings and you got that image as a result of Googling "Mario and Luigi"?

Mod you're such a bitch lol.

>>9294369
and as soon as i post that i just got it
the trick seems to be combining the wrench enemies so they don't tagteam you

>>9294369
I'm OP and playing M64 right now. Never actually played it before, quite enjoying it now. The only part that I despise is that you need to re-enter the level to get other stars. Also hated this in Gex 3.

just delete the whole thread then janny
we were gonna turn it around but you delete the relevant posts? fuck you
>>9294379
that's good to hear, i'm glad you're havin fun

>>9294364
Let's keep this on topic, anon.
>>9294379
It's popular for good reasons. It's a sick game. The DS remake was also great despite the less than desirable control scheme and questionable choice to have the player start the game as Yoshi. I would love to see the extra levels from the DS version backported to the 64 original or the PC port.

>>9294391
>The DS remake was also great
it was the worst port of any mario game in the existence of nintendo's history. literally unplayable.

>>9293720
anybody else think men who talk about their feelings are faggots?

>>9294430
I can understand why you wouldn't like it, but I found it playable enough to collect every star in the game. The minigames were fun too.

>>9294391
>tfw there will never be another mainline mario game where you can play as wario
he might've sucked ass there but damn if it wasn't cool

>>9294434
You’re gone.

>>9294435
>I can understand why you wouldn't like it
besides the controls being completely wrong? the heavily reduced polygon count? the resampling of the music so it's lowest quality imaginable? the bugs in level maps? oh no. i'm a huge fan of poorly programmed trash that capitalizes on the success of a previous release on an entirely different system.

I collected every damn star and I STILL didn't get to play as Luigi

Anybody got any good ROMhacks of this game to recommend? I just got myself a flash cart for my N64 and would ideally prefer stuff that runs on the actual console.

>>9294443
Yeah but you could play as Yoshi and Wario.

>>9293996
I just noticed how much of a zombie this kid looks like. He must have waited for Santa.

Last Impact, Sonic Edition, Sapphire, Super Mario 64 Land

Super Mario Bros 64 is fun, basically the OG 2D game rendered in the 64 engine

Why do zoomers pretend to be scared of Super Mario 64?

>>9295058
because le ILLUMINATED SPACES

>>9294443
It was portable Mario 64 in 2004, you dumb fucking retard. You put with and worked with what you had

>>9295058
I know it's lame and predictable but eel and piano creeped me out when I was 13 (was born in 1990)
I literally was afraid to go in that fucking room where piano is.

The game is semi-creepypasta due to its early 3D nature, starts out like an usual Mario game, then Bowser bowses out everybody and you get the spoop.

>>9295058
we don't
>>9295086
yeah the piano got me spooked as a kid too but desu i think it was mostly cause of the jarring loud noise, the eel didn't scare me and he didn't have a noise

>>9295085
But anon. The polycount.

>>9293978
you weren't there then. Anyone could understand why going from mario bros to turning the corner and seeing boo in these new bizarre 3D castle hallways could be a slightly intimidating experience if it was your first 3d game. Then there's the entire courtyard and the level inside the cage, and just the general castle layout of jumping into paintings with faces on them. What game has done such a bizarre wonderland-like thing within setting that works as well and so early on with such an often close and intimate camera? You are playing a game that has not and cannot be recreated

>>9295058
I think most zoomers probably don't, because there really isn't much to be spooked by. The haunted piano is like the one thing, and that's more just startling because it catches you off guard, once you know it's there and know there's no point trying to fight the thing, it's funny.
It's either autistic ones too much into low rent creepypasta, or shitposting.

>>9295085
I didn't play 64DS until a few years back. I appreciate some of the additions and changes, but the lack of an analog stick is a VERY serious minus for this game (the 3DS circlepad is an inadequate solution). I could put up with for a while, but it's really not comfortable, and you really can't move as good as you'd normally be able to.
If the original DS had some kind of analog pad or nub you could use, it would probably be an excellent port.

I assume that at the time it was mindblowing to have a game like that but handheld, and I did want it when it was new, but I was broke and forgot about it.

>>9295086
I can get finding the eel imposing, because he's got kind of a mean face and he stops for nothing, but just keep your distance.

>>9295251
>If the original DS had some kind of analog pad or nub you could use, it would probably be an excellent port.
The original DS came with a thing that looked like a cell phone strap that had a plastic pad you could strap to your thumb. You could use the thumb pad on the touch screen as a sort of makeshift analog stick. It worked way better than it sounds like it would, but I just played through most of the game with the dpad anyways. I just got used to it, and it honestly never really bothered me too much or made me feel like I wasn’t in complete control of my movements. I completely get that it would probably feel like shit to most people though.

>>9295251
>I can get finding the eel imposing, because he's got kind of a mean face and he stops for nothing, but just keep your distance.
The first time I got close and he jumped out of his hole was a big jump scare for me (I was 8 or 9 at the time), I was afraid to go anywhere near him after that and getting the star on his tail was super nerve-wracking for me.

Maybe I’m just more adventurous than others, but Mario 64 always gave me a sense of wonder, exploring these strange new worlds.

>>9293742
Do it your damn self, you lazy fat fuck.

>>9295251
how long could you last if i stuck you in the basement of the castle alone with only the fire painting, a gameboy, food and water for 5000 bucks a day?

>>9295746
Different anon, but I could probably make it a whole month down there assuming the outside of the painting isn't heating up the basement.
Do I just get knocked out if I get hurt in the painting like Mario does, or do I die for real if I touch the lava in there?

>>9295763
no you can even take the painting down and hang a new one if you beat enough games

>>9295776

>>9295746
If I got a nice bunch of games, and assuming I had nice enough place to sleep, and one for taking a shit and otherwise taking care of my needs and hygiene, I could do that very often. I was never afraid of that painting.

>>9295746
For $5,000 per day, free food and water, and a gameboy I could stay there for months.

>>9296968
Not exactly a tall order, right? Easy money. I'd maybe bring some multivitamins and vitamin D.

>>9295058
What really scares me are the skeletons in Zelda in hyrle field at night :3 also those brown guys who latch onto you holy shit

>>9297000
If I can bring my laptop and some furniture, and I get supplied with like, flameless MREs or something, I could spend a lot of time down there.

>>9295746
pretty long but can i stay in the hazy maze cave room? i don't wanna have wet socks

>>9297026
Redeads in Zelda 64 were seriously the stuff of nightmares when I was a kid. Their creepy deformed and blank faces, their moans, their screams, the fact that you froze helpless in place if they got too close, how they jumped on your and sucked the life out of you... There were parts of that game I was genuinely afraid to play because of those fucks, though I did push myself through it eventually. Some parts of that game are still unnerving to me today.

>>9294009
If it's not one thing, it's another.

>>9293720
The point is to show realtime vertex deformation on a 3d model. Or to put it another way: Nintendo likes to show off features their old console couldnt do in the new ones.

> Something about early CG is eerie to zoomers that grew up with advanced shaders

I grew up with early CG and it was definitely creepy. Early 3D games like Pandemonium, Twinsen’s odyssey, Montezuma’s return, among others, gave me such an eerie feeling since I was a child, kinda like what zoomers try to meme with the backrooms but 10x worse.

It's there to wow everyone with the potential of 3D technology, even if Mario in-game was nowhere near as animated.
