Why can't I find a screenshot of the Famicom version's title screen? Does it not have one or something?
Also Dragon Quest thread.

dragon warrior monsters was better than pokemon, and the dragon warrior monsters 2 key system/wold gen was really cool.

Okay hotshot, let's see the third game's title screen, like I was obviously originally asking for

The first DWM was so many hours of awesome for me. Even only partly knowing what I was doing, I had a blast. My last playthrough, I realized just how broken you could make an individual monster if you bred well.

What the absolute fuck
I couldn't find anything, and when I downloaded roms all I got was this quick bullshit before being thrust into the file selection.

Not that I'm complaining. Thanks, Anon.

I don't think it was better than pokemon, but it's a very close second. I really like DWM's soundtrack, I think it's actually better than Pokemon's.

DWM was the first dragon warrior game I played, and it kind of spoiled me for the rest in the series. I've tried to play the NES titles but they feel so clunky and boring in comparison.

>> No.2782956

>>2782935

it does not.

the NES version, dragon warrior iii, has a title screen with a dragon, but the original Famicom DQIII has simly a black screen with a small "dragon quest III" text line and then it goes straight to the file select.

I've heard this was because they couldn't fit a title screen due to size memory originally.

Is there any way to turn off bilinear filtering on PSP?

Maybe it's a fanmade mockup, then? I found it on Google, and posted it, but I've never played the JP version of DQ3 before, so I really don't know.

Oh man, that looks awful.
I have no idea, but I hope you find the solution soon.

I'm assuming it's fan made, maybe.
I own the DQ III Famicom cartidge and I can guarantee you it doesn't have a title screen, just this: >>2782953

Funny how IV is a bigger game overall, but they could totally fit in a title screen there.
Ah, the march of technology.

I don't own a PSP myself, which is why I was asking. IIRC it's got a resolution of ~480 x 272 pixels, so the options wouldn't seem to be great -

-Tiny 1x scale (160x144), black bars all around

-Cropped 2x (320x288), missing 8 lines off the top/bottom at original resolution

-Nearest neighbor scaling at a non integer resolution

-Blurry as hell bilinear filtering

Retroarch comes with the "quilez.cg" shader which does a pretty good job of only applying bilinear filtering at pixel boundaries, was wondering if it's available on PSP or if it's not compatible with graphics stack etc

I unfortunately no longer have my PSP, so I can't check the settings.

It's ugly, yes, but the actual content part of it is 5:1 integer ratio scaled, which makes it better than most screenshots posted here.
