And I plugged it into a SONY PVM

Also going to need scart cable, ATX power supply, and NEO GEO AES control pad of some kind

>>4249245
Also I heard that if you don't want to go the PVM route and rather connect it to a consumer TV set, an ACTIVE (keyword, active) Scart to RCA/S-Video converter has worked for people

>>4245664
do it.


also, what is it?

>>4245668
The GPD Win u silly banana!
It's a mini laptop with a controller built in, runs windows 10 out of the box even has a usb3.0 port

>>4245668
Also..plus side is having Steam on a handheld

Wrong

>>4236943
No, SNES.

Go with the Super Famicom remakes.

X1 has a ton of technical issues including slowdown and missed inputs during boss fights with a lot of slowdowns.

I've never had a problem with not dashing in that fight. I can dash jump of the walls and shoot him in the face without it ever eating my inputs. Also, why are you using the X-buster? You should be using Storm Tornado.

>>4261903
>You should be using Storm Tornado

That's why you're not experiencing that problem because you're killing him too quickly.

Because image and music copyrights weren't nearly as big of an issue in that era.

Same way Kojima gets away with stealing literally everything he's made.

Before videogames became the huge mainstream thing it was today, people didn't pay attention to them. Devs could steal art, plots, whatever, no one would get sued since the copyright owners had no idea the game even existed. It wasn't until they became popular among normies that people started pointing this stuff out. A good example is Earthbound.

Back when it released, it was mostly ignored even by gamers. The obvious music theft wasn't even touched on. Then once it became the huge "HIDDEN SNES RPG GEM!!!" suddenly everyone can't wait to point out "DID YOU KNOW?".

I wouldn't say I love it, but the GameBoy Castlevanias are all pretty solid games that too often seem to get ignored even among the so-called "Classicvania" fans.

Nope. Jumping is awkward, movement in general is painfully slow.

>>4260764
More like hipster contrarian test.

Water levels.

It's emulation.

>>4258569
wow that's such garbage, can't believe nintendo sold them for 20-30 dollars when they came out, and people are still paying that much or more

>>4258581
some of them have a few "extra features" but most of them are straight up roms with nothing else. And yeah nintendo has always been pretty fucking greedy, but blame the people who buy this stuff.

A really comfy game

H.R. Giger was a hero of mine, I wish he was still around, I had always wanted to meet him

A game that's long as shit for all the wrong reasons and just not enjoyable. Get ready to exhaust hours figuring out who to talk to and what dialogue choice you need to make in order to have something happen so you can get some dumb item to do shit and/or have other dialogue options to exhaust on dumb characters.

Pretty much a shame considering the story is interesting, but thanks to shitty execution, bad production values, bad voice acting and just crappiness, it ends up being rather shit and with the ending poorly executed (Thinking about it, the ending would have worked, but of course thanks to shitty execution, it just feels like an insult for spending hours on a pretty bad adventure game), not to mention just about any game around the mid-90s did pretty similar stories with a much better execution (Phantasmagoria 2 being a good example as it is essentially psych horror with the "My friends and acquaintances are suddenly murdered, people think it's me, was it really me? I don't remember, but can I trust myself?" story). Darkseed 2 really is a game that should have been done well or just not done at all honestly, and obviously it got done, and it wasn't done well, so it's existence isn't really justified out of laughably bad scenes.

>>4258536
I guess some of the normal world parts are alright looking though, but really, you might as well just look at screenshots or watch the damn game on youtube, it would do you a favor.

>i'm underage: the post

>>4257658
Fuck off to /v/ with your shitty b8. Game takes like 2 hours to beat.

>>4257664
>accuses other people for being underage because they don't have time to sit around and play a game for 5 hours

>collecting games that you genuinely enjoy and play as often as you can

Good

>collecting games just to have a collection of games, actually owns sealed copies

Bad

Vidya is to be enjoyed and if you're collecting it just to brag on the internet or some shit then that's just lame. As for starting one unless you already have plenty of games it's not worth it due to inflated pricing and youtube faggots so you'd be better off emulating or getting flash carts.
