Hidden gems are mostly turds

[Anonymous No.9670491]

There are no more hidden gems. Everything worth playing has already been talked about and translated and is easily accessible in this day and age. If you try playing these hidden gems for whatever reason, you'll come to realize why nobody talks about them; they suck, they're trash games. They may look nice or have some other interesting quality, but as an overall package 99% of them are absolutely not worth your time.

I find it more enjoyable to find things I enjoy about games, regardless of their flaws rather than focus on their shortcomings, unless the shortcomings are too overwhelming, you can have a highly polished game which is simply not fun but a flawed game with some creative ideas and a great feel and you'll have a far more enjoyable game.

Mario Sunshine for example? Braindead activities in the game, more often than not it's the most infantile possible gameplay, the game insists on forcing the most tedious shit on the player imaginable, all while inflicting massive fatigue over the tropical setting by failing to mix things up with any effort, it's constantly working against the player trying to find the fun in it.

Then there's starfighter sanvein, a simple PS1 top down twin stick shooter with bombastic graphics, a great visual style that reminds me of the MAGI computers in Evangelion and a breakneck pace that constantly keeps you pushing forward against the timer, which is also your health - a very clever system. It can slowdown hard from 60 but the game is still very enjoyable because of how much it wants you to have fun.

I find the most praised games can often have glaring flaws no-name titles would get skewerd for. It seems brand recognition is more important to outlets and gamers at times and that's sad, so I'm working against that.

[Anonymous No.9670542]

That's only because you have infinite choices today and not enough free time so you can pick only the cream of the crop and be satisfied.
There are some absolute great games that I played and no one talks about today but I wouldn't learn to enjoy Ultimate Stuntman for the NES or play it so much if I had the entire libraries of 30 systems avaliable for me back in the day.

Not remotely. There are entire systems that people hardly talk about. Like any good game on the Atari Lynx or Wonderswan is pretty much a hidden gem by default. Arcade games that didn't get home console ports are increasingly hidden gems, because people just don't know about them.

depends on what you mean by """hidden gem"""". Obviously people who are into old vidya are going to be more in-the-know about what games are in a platform's library.
For example, depending on how much of a casual you are, you could argue that pretty much anything that's not a nintendo mascot game on Gamecube is a hidden gem. Is super monkey ball a hidden gem? is baten kaitos? eternal darkness? tales of symphonia? I'd argue none of these are, but to other people who are only really aware of stuff like smash/mario/zelda/etc they could be. Same with other platforms like Genesis and how many people aren't even aware of any games on the system that aren't Sonic.

PS1 and PS2 combined number over 8000 released games. That's not even considering the ocean of games released for computers. Sure many of them may not be great, but I think the most important quality of a hidden gem is being able to exceed expectations compared to the rest of the system's library. Theres dozens of games released on the most popular systems that get no discussion despite being good games. The only systems I'd argue have very few hidden gems left undiscovered are those that are very popular but with small libraries, like GameCube and N64.

When I started my game collection my original intention was to pick up the games I enjoyed as a kid, then I branched out and started picking up games that I had never played, or had never even heard of. While I did (and still do) enjoy playing the games I grew up with, the most fun I have had is with hidden gems. There's still so many amazing games out there that nobody talks about, and I'm always finding great games that I've never heard of (and I've been in this hobby for a long time). The reason why a lot of gems don't get talked about is because they never had a wide release. In many cases they were never localized because they were made by a small developer who wasn't interested in the foreign market, or they did get an international release but it was from a sml publisher, only in specific markets, or late in the consoles life cycle and therefore failed to gather a wide audience. If you truly think there are no good hidden gems then you're probably an autistic kid who boots of roms and plays them for 30 secoyand then turns them off after being confused about what to do since you didn't read the manual. Quite honestly it's a shit take.
>Everything worth playing has already been talked about and translated
This is an even bigger shit take. I'm an L2 Japanese speaker and I'm often finding untranslated gems. There's even some hiding in plain site because there are people interested in playing but are unable to - like Segagaga.

Fleshed out was the wrong word, since you're right that most of them could be boiled down like that. I meant more that it's hard to make the Poopsmith have significant roles in his own cartoons or star in one. He's silent and shovels poop, that's about the extent of it. They ended up doing a lot more even with characters like The Cheat, Strong Mad, or Pom Pom who can't talk normally. I guess Poopsmith also lacks a strong connection with the major characters besides The King of Town who he works for. I like him, but he's more of a character that shows up occasionally for gags rather than ever having big roles. That's for the best I think.

I agree 100% Nintendo consoles have been picked fairly clean. Except for the snes, there is still a handful of games that nobody talks. Dos has so many lesser know games that are actually fantastic it's crazy, PS1 is also up there.

>muh 99% is shit
Yeah, this has been known for centuries at this point. This also goes for 99% of the games you like, they are shit.
Bet you enjoyed those games. You shit eater. Why do you eat shit? Because you enjoy eating shit. That's what this hobby is about. Eating shit that you like and finding new fossilized shit to eat.

This is true. *hidden gems* are always 6/10 these days

Hard disagree. Looking back at games from the past puts us in the unique position of no longer having to consider the value proposition of games, either because you've pirated it, or because the price of a rerelease is much lower than the initial cost.

I think Robotron 64 is a very fun game to play on my everdrive. It's got fun arcadey gameplay, twinstick support, and nice graphics and sound. But if I had received Robotron 64 as one of my limited N64 games that topped out at a collection of about 12 as a kid? I'd be pissed

Games that you could never have justified the purchase of back in the day (especially when in competition with the heavy hitters of the era) can absolutely be worth taking a stab at on emulator or a rerelease.

Yeah, minus the 3D buildings. 3DS is just a straight up improvement over the PSP one

Oh lol. 3DS is worse than the NES one in that case.

[Anonymous No.9682001]

Why would making same exact buildings 3D make the game worse you schizo?

3D models are lazy and infinitely worse than sprites

in my eyes Hebereke was actually a little bit influential, but only for indie developers; I definitely have a hunch that Nifflas (Knytt, Within a Deep Forest) played this game and took some inspiration from it.

>3D models are lazy and infinitely worse than sprites
Maybe google what you're shitposting about next time. It's literally the same PSP building sprite used as a texture for the front view of the building, with 2 extra textures used for sides. Yeah dude that's really lazy to preserve old content and make new one too. The worst part of that game is you can't play it, so it must be the bad version obviously.

I don't care if they put the same textures on the model. The PSP version looks objectively better.
