Average /v/ user feeling edgy and leaving his board. What to expect from /vr/?

Old games.
Filter arguments.
CRT arguments.
muh developers intent

It's not a bad place, though.

Less shitflinging about consoles, much less talk about feminism in videogames.

Actually talking about videogames.
Prepare to leave the word edgy on /b- i mean /v/
No console wars
No feminist or homo bullshit

Welcome to /vr/
What's your favorite retro game

>> No.1857054

We talk about retro video games and retro video game accessories.

When we argue, we argue about retro video games and retro video game accessories.

Sometimes we reference the current state of video games, developmentally and economically but always in terms of retro video games.

What's your favorite retro game and why, OP?

>> No.1857059

You can expect videogames, OP.

Welcome to your new home.

Just an FYI, don't expect to have full-on discussions pertaining to 6th-gen gaming, as it's not allowed here yet

But as others have already said, it's pretty chill here, actual discussions about vidya games and whatnot.

Yeah just that Aladdin genesis vs snes thread is a such good example of it.
We are also plagued with some "general" circlejerking cancers and worst cases of fanboyniggers.
Expect also lot of spoonfeeding even for stupid shit you can find on the first google result.

But at least we talk about fucking video games and most of the time there is interesting threads.

So enjoy your stay and remember meta thread aren't retro video games.

Probably my favorite retro game has to be Mrs. Pacman for the NES. It was the first videogame I ever played, and I obsessively mastered every level as I grew older. I'm a sucker for clasic Pacman, and to a lesser extent Frogger.

I've heard of it, but never actually used it. Is it an arcade game emulator?

And that why every time someone tell those dumbfuck to fuck off, you see the worst cases of white knighting.

I am fed up with all those anons here trying too hard to sound nice and polite for any fuckin retard who lost his way here because "see guys we are soooo much better then /v/ right?".

Fucking condescendants scum.

It's a slow board that's losing members fast. If you have a favorite game you want to know more about you're better off using the foolz archive.

Filters are shit and you're shit for liking them.
DOOM is fuckin' great, play some fuckin' DOOM.
Resellers must be sent to the gulags.
Scanlines are the way god intended you to play vidya.
Just fucking emulate it.
Tre/vr/ is best board-tan. No exceptions.
James, Mark and Arino are the sacred triune of retro. Open your heart to them.
That game you liked as a kid is actually not that good and you shouldn't like it because OP said so.
I know all of this because my dad works at Nintendo. Also, Mew is under the truck and there's a new Mario game coming out that's going to be a first-person shooter.

That about covers it. Welcome to /vr/, now don't be a faggot or we'll tell you to go back to /v/.

To be quite honest, that thread is extremely civil compared to console wars on /v/ (or anywhere else). Not saying you're completely wrong, but it's an absolute far cry to the average console war, where there's a lot more butthurt, elementary namecalling and hypothetical blood involved.

Exactly. They're bitching about which version is better, but at least they're bitching with facts instead of deadhorse memes.

Mame in particular can be a bitch to set up though. It's not like other emulators where almost every ROM will work with every version.
