Ranking of lightguns I've used from best to worst:

>GunCon 2
God-tier form, accuracy, ergonomics, and functionality. The ultimate lightgun only valid complaint I can think for it is the AV splitter cable can be a bitch to find sometimes.
>GunCon 1
Also very nice lightgun but 2 has better shape and more buttons.
>Virtua Gun/Stunner
Very nice shaped lightgun and its accuracy honestly rivals the GunCon though the trigger on mine is getting a bit crusty.
>Xbox MadCatz Blaster
Very nice light gun, underrated if I'm being honest the accuracy is good and the force feedback is a very nice touch, shame it's only compatible with like three games and MAME support is hit-or-miss if not nonexistant from what I can tell.
>Zapper
Fun to play around with though that trigger can wear your finger out after a while and accuracy is hit-or-miss compared to later light guns.
>PS Move
Not a big fan of it but it at-least has a gun attachment with a natural shape and acceptable build quality.
>Wii Zapper
Having the trigger on the left finger is awkward and the build quality feels kind of cheap and hollow. Not a fan would rather just use the Wiimote by itself or a third-party gun attachment.
>Dreamcast MadCatz Blaster
Shit shape, so-so accuracy, and the trigger feels clicky and satisfying to pull initially but it quickly digs into your finger and becomes unpleasant to use. I haven't been able to beat HotD2 because this piece of shit gives me a harder time than my other lightguns and the better quality ones from Japan are hard to come by and expensive. At-least it has an autofire function but the Xbox lightgun is a staggering improvement in every way.

How many of these pieces of paper have you written on? Do you throw them away or keep them somewhere so that you can show them off one day?

It only costs like 225 dollars if you order straight from ukraine but that takes 2 weeks to ship

I have the N8 Everdrive Pro and it works like a charm. Soldered 47k resistor between expansion pin 3 and 9 and set the audio preset for it, works perfectly for it too.

Damn. that looks incredible. Truly art direction trumps all

A stable 30 fps is not bad, unless you're playing a first person shooter. People are performance obsessed

This. I never played GT back then and I emulated it recently. I was impressed at the level of care and attention to detail in everything, from the cars, driving mechanics and the presentation

I now see why it got so much praise.

I was a kid in the 70s/80s and had a 2600, and I'd never heard of or seen this one. I just looked it up, and it was essentially the forerunner to the Tron lightcycle mode; a "snake" game against an opponent. Interesting. Tron's lightcycles amazed me as a kid, but in the end, it's really a simple concept.

Gotcha. I'll try the console/handheld sims 2 then

GT2 is pretty good. I can't believe I missed out on this as a kid.

I love that they go into the mechanics of driving for the tutorials, and dress everything up as getting licenses. Kino.

>Search for packages of The Sims 2 that operate well.

What do you mean? I do have the sims 2 on PC, but the console versions actually seem to be different, which I find interesting.

Thoughts on 3?

Red pill me on these games, there are so many I don't even. Which one is worth emulating?

Funny you mention Egoraptor.
He has a video on this exact topic (Castlevania 1 vs 4).
How CV4 changed the jump controls to be more lenient, but didn't really alter the overall game design to reflect this change.
Even makes fun of the people calling CV1's jump controls unacceptable.

Minecraft sold more than DK64, I guess we should pack our bags and move to /v/.

I wouldn't. A game a can't play is not a game I want on my shelf.

you could always make or buy a repro slip cover of the pal version.

i would only buy games that are in my top ten favorite games ever if they were expensive. i would never ever spend more than 200 for that and have only spent near 100 twice in my life and never more for retro games.

100 for suikoden 2 mint many years ago.

85 for ogre battle snes a few years ago.

but anything over 150 no matter the game, i wouldn't bother unless there was some insane reason for it. like 200 bucks for a game that was 400 dollars and it was in great shape. otherwise the market is a bad joke to me.
