That grainy quicktime video looks great. Makes it feel like the entire thing was drawn on ms paint.

It's the best selling computer game series of all time. That's not just some hyperbole.

Better to make a thread about it, maybe some others also need help

second image is also alex kidd, the boss fights with the rock paper scissors i think

[Anonymous No.8817908]

>>8815023
The first one is called 3d world runner or something like that, it's like Space Harrier but you can only jump not fly.

Two on the bottom look so much like Alex Kid it's absurd. Playing rock paper scissors with giant hands then that underwater section with the squid and the cash.
Either it's chink bootlegs, they chose pictures from other games to illustrate, or it's just made up bullshit to make it look like it has more games or more variety.

They're basically for the puzzles, story and interacting with a large world. You're playing them wrong.

4chan doesn't understand games that don't involve pew pew pew go brrrr. I'm not saying they're great either as most of the time puzzles are trial and error and "death" just sets you back a couple screens.

I gotta love just now low pc game standards are. On consoles, publishers are depending to sell 6 million copies within the opening week to break even, but on PC, the publishers will say that selling half a million copies, across 6 months, and at 5 dollars each, exceeded their expectations.

That's 6 million copies for AAA titles among multiple platforms including PC. AAA games sold poorly on PC in the 00's because of piracy but it's long been solved by Steam. Anyone pirating games today won't pay even if the game costs $5 or $2 so there are not lost profits.
Another traditional problem with PC games was the cost of buying a PC. You could buy a Nintendo 64 for $199 to play Quake or you had to buy a PC with graphics card for $1990 for example. But these days a medium PC will cost about as much as a console.
Also, the best selling games of all time were Myst, then The Sims.
