The only truly based picture ITT

>>9580887
>CRT TV on True Tate mode
sovl
Also i would prefer a comfy zabuton instead of this gay chair

>>9580904
Law books together with your gaming stuff? Weird

>>9582137
Why you snoopin hmm?

>oh let me guess
>you need MORE dont you

Interesting to find a retro enthusiast in this god-forsaken country.
But I was actually more interested in the TV. I have one like that but 29". It's just too big and really heavy, so moving it takes 2 people at least. I would like to find a 20"/21" one.

>>9580887
A foot rest would be nice.

>>9580897
Get those Jeans up, boy. You want Jamal to pull down your tighty whiteys and rape your virgin bussy?

Tava tão próximo de ser algo decente.

You know... this is actually a pretty cool battle station thread.

>30kV death boxes a foot above the water you're currently sitting in

>>9582245
>analog sticks broken by trash kids
every time

>>9582669
>trash kids
can you be more specific? what makes them trash?

>>9582847
the smell

>>9582847
The look.
The Feel... of cotton.
The fabric of our lives.

>>9582669
How much you want to bet those controllers were grey when new?

>>9582847
Vandalism is trashy.

>>9582949
Looool

>>9582331
Those aren't CRTs. They're death boxes, just not 30kV death boxes.

>>9580908
what do you have against SGs?

—I’d like to ask a bit about the environment you played in. Looking at the picture you shared with us, it looks like you sat with your legs crossed while you played?

MON: Yes, that’s how I played.
—Sitting cross-legged like that and playing for a long time, didn’t your legs start to hurt or get numb?

MON: In my case, that didn’t happen.
—Did you choose that posture because playing on an arcade cabinet with your elbows bent is straining, but sitting cross-legged like this allowed you to keep them straight?

MON: No, that wasn’t it. I find playing on an arcade cabinet very easy, and it's the standard for me. I just found the cross-legged posture the easiest way to emulate that.
—I see you play on a tate’d CRT…

MON: I do pretty much all my gaming on a CRT.
—Right, HD TVs still have problems with screen lag/delay.

MON: Yeah. Especially with the 2nd loop of Death Label, there’s parts where the speed of your reaction time is being pushed to the limit, so you want to minimize any display lag.
MON’s setup.
—I noticed your joystick there is the HORI Real Arcade Pro. Have you made any modifications to it?

MON: I’ve made one small adjustment, actually. Not with the electronics, but I adjusted the microswitches to change the play in the stick by adding spacers.
—Was this to reduce the play in the stick?

MON: Not necessarily… there’s still some play there. It was just to make it easier for me personally. (laughs)
—Did you swap out the buttons or the stick itself?

MON: No, I didn’t change anything there.
—That’s somewhat unusual.

MON: It's often said among gamers that “the best stick for STG is Seimitsu, and the best for fighting games is Sanwa.” But personally, I think that in the end whatever is easiest for you to control is best. So this time I used a Sanwa stick.

Just a Mr. Pib. I think that'll do it.

>>9582168
Two people, for a 29? You confirmed female?

>>9580894
I love how shit CRTs look in most cases. Have to have them just right to look decent.

>>9583318
doubt

>>9582168
Buy a hand truck or a dolly. They come in handy for more than just moving heavy CRT's and you'll find yourself using it often. Unless of course you don't have any arms.

>>9583479
If you had just asked "which player?" I would have explained.

>>9582151
you just know that always happens by the outlet installation

>>9580908
i loved my gibson sg
light as a feather
no paint to chip
decent les paul-style picks
crazy\thin neck profile
wonderful
i gigged with it in several bands before upgrading to my non-reverse firebird special custom

>>9583358
most of them are horrible
that one just needs some peel and stick vinyl wallpaper and its great honestly

>>9583472
i would still accept\buy\use that setup though

>>9581001
>>9580997
neat i like the small footprint
i would get two and try to rotate one of the monitors for vertical titles

>>9580936
this is basically my setup
im still working on it anonkun ;_;

>>9583675
A set-up like that is better than a real cab imo.
You can rotate very easily, swap controls in a matter of seconds, and a Sony TV like that one is going to be hard beat unless you spend big money on a low hours Nanao monitor. And even then the Sony might have better color.

>>9583608
I'll ask then, which player?

>>9583318
>cat, unimpressed
>custom art\swappable setups
>original CPS A motherboards
>xmen vs SF, SF, & vampire hunter
checks out, i believe you

>>9582151
>free to pee while seated

I'm retarded and new to retro stuff but how would you make your video output appear upright like that

all the CAVE shmups on ps2 have an option in the menu to rotate (tate) the screen, most other shmups on the console do rotate apart from a few,

also the taito memories, 4 disc collection has the tate option, its just difficult to find, as this is the only jap game that doesnt have menus in english, the english release taito legends doesnt have the tate option and less games

ps2 is def the best console for arcade ports, its got most of the major shmups covered, fighters, near complete neogeo collection, and all the classics with compilations from namco, capcom, taito, snk, midway

Based SG Chad

I always wanted one but never had the dosh, and then my younger cousin started getting into guitar and my uncle bought him one so now I can play on one fairly regularly. Never ceases to amaze me how much better it sounds than the shitty Dean I’ve been playing on for the past 10 years.

>>9582151
Now that is playing for his life.

>>9584745
Any real pros running ported games on ps2 vs running the arcade Roms emulated?

>>9580887
hate having arcade sticks on the lap

>>9580997
simple control panel to expand I guess

250 still seems like a lot for some controllers and a bunch of MDF

>>9580931
I feel the 2008 energy dripping off of this image

>>9582953
they wouldn't shine on top if they were grey

>>9584398
this causes me pain

>>9580887
>humbuckers
>two of them

>>9585985
im not an expert or autist, so details like minor delay or run ahead dont mean shit to me. all the arcade ports ive played on ps2 i cant fault,

apparently the cave ports on ps2 r some of the best compared to the steam pc ports, tho i did read that on reddit.

the benefit of using a ps2 is its a lot easier to plug into a crt, a lot of the games are considered to be arcade perfect ports, especially certain SNK games, ive stuck a bunch on internal hdd and load with openloader, its simple AF.

emulation thru mame is obviously, the top choice if ur using a pc, connecting it to a crt can be a headache as you have to play with custom drivers/ resolutions/ refresh rates just to get ur picture right, if ur rotating the screen as well, much more hassle to set up. i know the CAVE shmups in mame need at least a core2duo to run full speed, so anything less powerful like a raspberry pi might not be up to the job,

i'd like to have my pc connected to a tate crt, but the ps2 is just as good as it covers all the important arcade games from 1978 upwards.

>>9586106
I didn’t even think about the connectivity issues, I run a thinkpad t400 with a vga crt monitor so hdmi wasn’t even on my mind. Might be time to break out my ps2 from the basement though and play around with some of the ports. Thanks anon

>beatles used epiphone

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

sometimes... less is more

>>9587269
>has db9 ports
>still uses jank controllers instead of segapads

is there a reason they removed the cartridge shell?
its not like aesthetics were on the menu here

>>9587262
That was 40 years before the brand was applied to Chinese crap.

>>9583318
Reminds me of the Micomsoft XAC-1

I never understood people who sit at a tiny ass desk or a coffee table with a tv/monitor on it

Japanese guy makes these and sells them.

>>9584398
there is no way anyone could play this properly. my eyes hurt just looking at this photo.

It's made of cardboard.

>>9588324
It's obviously a joke

>everythin maed in vagina now!
>wah wah wah

maybe stop supporting globalist hedgemony then everything will stop being outsourced
& when you call customer support you wont be on hold in africa waiting for them to pretend to help you before hanging up

>>9584398
I did this once with my deck for laughs, and with DFK too even
Great minds think alike!
But really, playing a bullet hell on a screen that small is pain
