Fuck, why are there so many arcade and skill-oriented gaming threads? I just want a place to go to discuss JRPGs but /vr/ doesn't really give a shit about them.

The Sega Saturn is a great console. I love all the superb games for it. Also Sega's still making consoles to this day and never got raped by Sony, who went the way of the 3DO after the PSX failed miserably.

You can't get a high quality USB lightgun and need to get a CRT to play lightgun games.
CRTs look better in real life and pictures can't capture what they really look like even though pictures can capture what everything else in the world looks like.

You use emulators? That's real neato.

Anyone remember this really obscure platformer called Dario or something? you would jump in pipes and the enemies were toadstools. I think he had a brother who was just his sprite but green. they should remake it

Fun fact: in 2001 Square seriously considered making a photorealistic CGI Final Fantasy movie, but scrapped the project at the last minute due to "budget concerns". Can you imagine how amazing that would have been? Sure it means we might not have gotten FFX on the PS1 but I think it would have been worth the wait to see summons, black mages etc on the big screen

Guys, how do I git gud at Kirby games? It doesn't matter which one I play - original, Adventure, Super Star - it's all the same. I barely squeak by level 1 and then level 2 absolutely hands my ass to me on a platter. At this point I'm ready to throw in the towel and play something baby tier like Comix Zone 4.

I enjoy posting about retro games and keeping shitposting off the board, I love seeing all of the on topic threads and actual good discussion.
Man this is a good board, could you imagine an alternate reality where a board about retro games went to shit within the span of a few years because of stupid assholes from other boards making terrible posts and possibly people that have been here since the beginning just stopped caring and just wanted to shit the place up further rather than just moving on to another board?

Good thing that's not a problem here.
