Caught lying.

>>955704
Arcade games in Japan were 100 yen per credit, even back in the early 80s? That's rough.

i had the Asciipad and it was awesome... Best turbo controller.

I can never find the other side of this ad, the one with the super hot redhead

>>955746

>>955750
yup, that's the one

>>955813
... What were they thinking?

>>955826
What do you mean

>>955826
sex sells

>>955826
It's based off a famous picture, apparently.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_Girl

As a young weapons nut, this ad was like a braingasm. I spent so much time studying the weapons(tfw I found out most of the weapons weren't like that).

>>955602

>>955762

>>955762


hahaha holy fuck

>>955826
It's a famous photo forever associated with tennis.

Well, tennis has always been kinda sexualized because of the skirts and stuff.

>>955617
>>955624
How were these allowed?

Did that thing actually allow you to slow down the fucking games?

>>956581
They were probably ads in "naughty" magazines or something like that.

>>955762
This deserves a good filename

>>955602
"When I hold aloft this third-party piece-of-shit controller, I become... CAPTAIN GLAMROCK!"

>>956589
They are also from the UK (Pounds Sterling and Mega Drive), which has different views on sex/nudity.

>>956586

Kind of. It's basically a turbo on the start button, so for most games of the era it was a quick cycle of pause-unpause-pause-unpause-etc.

Works great with some games, crap with others.

>>956943

Goddamn this kid enjoys learning

>>956092
Well I hope that pistol wasn't actually single action in the game

>>956710
Why the fuck would Mario Paint need a player's guide?

>>957035
The Beretta 92F series has a double action trigger pull, and then becomes single action for reasons obvious to any automatic pistol owner. SAO versions were released well after Metal Gear was developed.

For those not in the know, double action means that the trigger pulls the hammer back (if the hammer is not already cocked), and also releases the hammer. When the gun is fired, the slide moves back, absorbing a lot of the recoil, and loading the next cartridge from the top of the magazine, into the chamber. The hammer is pushed back in this process, and locks in firing position. Subsequent trigger pulls will release the hammer, firing the weapon until all ammunition has been expended.

Single action only means that you have to rack the slide, or otherwise cock the hammer back before firing the first time.

To carry a pistol "cocked and locked" means to have a round in the chamber, the hammer cocked back, and the safety engaged. This is dangerous if you're a clumsy retard, but optimal if you have need of using your weapon quickly.

>>956617

>third-party piece-of-shit controller

Bitch the Ascii Pad was a souped-up regular SNES controller. It was awesome to wield

>>957105
It's actually a pretty kick-ass guide. Nintendo used to make great guides for it's games, and this one is no exception. It gives you stamp palettes to make pixel art of different video game characters, gives you tips on how to best use certain drawing tools, and has something of an art gallery in the back from Nintendo staff and Nintendo Power readers that sent in their drawings.

>>957105

MOICHANDISING!

>>957105
why not...

>merry christmas, kid

>>957008
this kid got way to into it

>>956092
Me too, anon. Great ad.

>>957153
...except for the shoulder buttons.

(third time posting this complaint, and I will not stop)

>>955708

Perhaps it's a prequel?

>>955708
TECHNICALLY, that's a computer game.

Enjoy.

>>955826
The same thing now.

>>958116
comedy gold

>>956985
Something like that would still never fly in a normal UK magazine, it was probably in Viz or something

>>957981
I still don't understand how something this shitty commands such enormous prices today. Why would you even want to collect it? It's not playable, it's not interesting. It's just going to sit on a shelf collecting dust.

>>960414
Whatever enjoyment there is to be had with 'collecting' clearly shelves all sense of quality within the product in favor of, what I imagine anyways I don't collect myself, rarity and popularity within the community.

>>955701
man that game was so good. And the ad's great too.

>>958117
man, it's good to know that some things don't change.

>>958094
TECHNICALLY, every console is a computer, and every computer game is a video game. (Unless somebody made a game with no visual aspect at all, even text. What would it be, an "audio game"?)

>and every computer game is a video game
There are many computer games which don't depend on a video output. I can easily play Zork, for example, on a teletype terminal.

>>957105
I'm starting to wonder if asking this question is a meme.

>>962727
>a teletype terminal

Which is a visual interface.

>>962802
It's got nothing to do with video, however.

I could also easily play Zork on a Braille terminal or Text-To-Speech engine, if you want to go down this road.

>>962802

Visual interface, but not a video interface. Zork could be played with text to speech synthesiser, heaphones speech-to-text, and microphone. A game that requires no visual interface whatsoever

>>962808
Dammit, ninja'd

>>962802
Visual != video.

Books aren't videos.

Did companies really think the barrier between American gamers and JRPGs back then was cerebral and not cultural?

>You're dumb, so we asked HQ in Japan to make us this Fisher Price game that will "scramble your synapses."

>>957105
I have it. It's awesome. Lots of cool tips and how-tos for stamps, pictures, and music.

posting a couple weird ones

apparently the British bird in this one was something of a minor pop star, can't remember her name though

>>955767

>>964787
I fapped to this ad.
something about dirty girls......
ah the days before the internet.

>>963038
>Advertisement sucks like the product.
Damn, that's what i call marketing at its finest.
At least they are a bit honest.

Gayers

I'll never find the magazine adverts of Rayman 2 with a guy named Ray running away from an exploding recliner and stuff like that.

>>967613
I remember seeing this ad and thinking, "okay, dude's a `pro gamer'; so what?"

Also, apparently these days he vanity searches his name for occurrences of the old ad just for fun. Seems like a cool dude, even though he has actually never beaten Gaiares without cheating.

Asciiware was a fucking GOAT-tier peripheral and 3rd-party controller company. What ever happened to them?

>>968723

I remember that they existed at least into the PS2 era, as I have Ascii PS2 controllers. I do not know anything beyond that off the top of my head.

I'm here 24/7 but I have no idea what an assembly thread is. All I know is you better not be princess sevenleaf because she's my arch enemy.

>>971230

>arch enemy

Are you 10? An assembly thread isn't exclusive to /vr/, it's just where users on any board post and report age/sex and sometimes location and reasons for being on the board or what other boards you frequent.

>>971240
Yeah I'm 10 you got a problem with it? This so-called "assembly thread" thing sounds like something for /mlp/ to me, and I'm only 10.

I've seen a lot of these Elite ads, I never really did get them though

I remember there was this ad having one of the olden female adventure game designers naked in a swimming pool or sauna or something, not sure if it was roberta williams... anyone?

>>971996
I like how the ad doesn't mention that the game is edutainment at all

>>971987
Why?

>>972030
it's the whole "you can be what ever you want in videogames" thing
it was a common advertising tactic in those days and I don't see it as very hard to get

>>972147
I'm not sure... it seems like atari had an odd obsession with putting pong in barrels

>>955776
do companies ever still make comic book ads these days?
If so I'd love to see some modern examples... though I guess this wouldn't be the board for that

>>957220
bu.. but... you shouldn't have to be told what stamps to make and you shouldn't need tips
that is HAND HOLDING and that is a trend of modern games, mario paint guide confirmed for ruining gaming for ever
this post is a joke

Is it their old HQ building in America?

>>972309
I have to wonder what the worst game ever made actually was though

>>972291

>>966185
They were afraid of people grafiting arcade machines, changing the P to an F

or something like that

>>972298
I think it's in Europe. That billboard was actually bought by Commodore and is an attack ad against Sega for the Amiga CD32

>>972361
They have a few HQ offices, one of which is in London.

>>972328
I don't think such game is going to be remembered by anyone. Really bad games are mostly forgotten.

>>971987
>>972148
>>972151
Hmm, maybe for party, hoedown/hootenanny/rodeo, drinking environments?

>shitty troll attempt
Got two responses. Three now.

>>972151
It's because the majority of Pong devices where sold to bars, so putting them in barrels would match the drinking atmosphere more.

>>972337

Thanks for that, anon.

I've always had a thing for Roberta Williams. I don't know why. She's like your friend's sweet-natured mom or something. There's a whole fantasy I could build there...

Fuck I miss 90's game ads. So X-TREME.

/r/ing the SSI ad with that weird dark monster in the back. Was in every gaming mag in the early/mid 90's. Wish I remembered more details.

One of my favorites.

>>973296

>>973307
Perfect reaction image.

>>964810
>>973296
And the best part of these 90s ads are the grunge fashion. You could easily see these kids crashing at a friend's house smoking blunts, blasting Alice in Chains and playing videogames at all hours of the night.

Ah, the best years of our life...completely pissed through.

>>973079

Not him, but please define "plains" as it relates to Asian women. Polite sage for not being /vr/ related.

Guys this thread has hit me right in the feels. Not a regular here but would there be any interest in me scanning some of my old gaming mags? I only have a small collection these days (THANKS MOM) probably about 10 or so spanning '94-'00. If that would potentially be of interest to you guys, let me know and I'll start a new thread listing what I have

>>975429
>Nintendo specs in the graph is completely wrong
SNK don't seem to like Nintendo that much, right?
For example the sprites, SNES maximum is 128 which is twice as much as the Genesis/MD.
And the sound, SNES has 8 channels which is more than the 6 from the Genesis/MD

>>975432
I don't get it. What does that imply?

>>975613
It's implying that FF7 will make the death of cartridge-based games obvious.

The trope it's based on is that a common request by people about to be executed by a firing squad is a cigarette to calm the nerves and a blindfold so they don't see what's in front of them.

>>975614
The ad predates the SNES, so they're making fun of the NES.

And do yourself a favor: Don't trust graphs in ads until you learn how to recognize shitty ones. That thing is obviously not accurate in the least.

It's a Simpsons quote. A Navy recruiter explains they're putting subliminal messages saying "YVAN EHT NIOJ" in music videos (JOIN THE NAVY). He says they have a three-pronged strategy: subliminal, liminal, and superliminal, which is him yelling "JOIN THE NAVY!" at passers-by.

That thing was god tier, a perfect clone of Nintendo's controller & build quality so much to the point that if you took it apart, the cable attached using the same plugin connector. All you had to do was switch the cord with the Nintendo cord and the only thing wrong with it [too short] was fixed.

Damn shame, how every 3rdparty controller brand turned to shit when PlayStation debuted. The 16bit era had some truly great 3rdparty controllers, but the ASCiipad was king.

No, the shoulder buttons were weakly-hinged, thin crap with an unnatural slant that forces are straitening of the index fingers that the original did not require.

It felt bad. So it was bad.

>>988908
Never released.

This image has been altered from the original.

Apparently the Sega CD version is the only one that does not require preparation

I vaguely remembered playing a game designed to be able to be played by blind people. You could walk around in a seemingly 3D environment, with the catch being that you had to play by listening. There were many ambient noises that would get louder or quieter as you moved around, letting you get a sense of the shape of your environment. I wish I could remember the name, because it was interesting.

>>994361
I only know about Blind Monk Society.

I remember now. It was called Shades of Doom.

>>994752

>>994776
...is that a vaccum cleaner add-on?

>>994783
I don't know what the dust buster thing is, but on the left that looks like a cassette drive. Enjoy waiting an hour for your game to load.

>>994783
Nope, a foldable zapper.
Also it's probably just the plastic case.
>>994796
In Japan, a tape drive has been used to store BASIC programs or other user data (Excitebike can store custom tracks on it).

I loveh ow the capitalized on 64 bits so much because people did not know what it even meant.

I really, really wanted one of these, but IIRC they were too pricy and I would have had to special order it. Never actually saw one in a store or in person.

The Super Advantage was made and marketed by Ascii. Their logo is right there. They're talking about ripping off the arcade experience (and possibly even implying a connection to the NES Advantage, which was also an Ascii design).

>i'm going to cheat in an online game of S3&K
>32x and cd for visual effect
yeah, the top loading carts were odd, but at least be realistic
the only thing that'd look this terrible is if you wanted to beat S3&K through a game genie with a nomad.
and that's if you're too retarded to actually play the game
