What is the most accurate program to emulate Neo Geo titles? I've read that MAME isn't optimal. Also, this is likely a common question, but is there an inexpensive way to utilize any form of original hardware? Possibly an MVS flash cart or something?
MAME is full of input lag, don't use it. Stick to Neo Rage X
>>4085630
Seconded.
If it ain't broken, and final burn it's worst than MAME.

sega hires you to port 21 games to the genesis mini (sega cd and 32x games count). what games would it be and is that list better than what the snes classic edition has to offer?
Sega wouldn't hire me because I'm a Sony fanboy.

Is Malth your hardest boss?
You could stand in front of him and hold turbo B to stab him repeatedly. His health would go down to 0 faster than your.

Will it be the more finished version the devs have mentioned, or will they just be slapping the leaked, hacked ROM onto it?
>>4082334
They promised a more complete build.
>>4081773
I liked the soundtrack.
>>4081790
Me too.
Over twenty years later and I still don't know if I love or hate this game. It offers so much yet delivers on so little.
How bad was the "Classic NES Series" on the Game Boy Advance?
I only had a few and they were good but really most of the good NES games were remade for the GBA so why bother?
>>4080434
Imagine being the piece of shit who thought that looked better than this.
Thinking of picking up a PSP Go for SNES/PS1/etc. emulation. What advantages does this have towards using a 3DS?
Ds has two screens which makes it trash automatically for me
Though my handheld of choice is the gcw zero (for autistic reasons), the go is also one of the top choices. It's up there with the gpd xd
>>4080041
Composite out to TV with a Bluetooth dualshock. Some snes games are rough, but not bad overall. Ps1 is perfect. It's pretty great.
>>4080068
I was hoping to use a 3DS because I was gonna buy a new one anyway and didn't want to waste extra money on this. Literally everything about it looks good for emulation though and I can play FFT: WotL on it. Win win.

some kind of unique mechanic or twist on the conventional formula
good writing, lots of flavor text
Is it not possible to get a regular grey cart?
Could you transplant the guts of it into a grey cart after cutting a hole for the SD card to fit through?

>Could you transplant the guts of it into a grey cart after cutting a hole for the SD card to fit through?
I hardly think it would be worth the effort, but yeah. There is no reason why you couldn't.
>>4075143
When you go to the offical website to order it asks you if you want a American or Euro/Jap shell and what color you'd like. You even get your choice of stickers. Not surprising since they are made to order.Get the Super Everdrive China Version. SD2SNES supports like, 8 additional official games and costs $150 more
>>4075623
Which additional 8 games?
Doesn't it also have the potential for SFX & SA1 support?
And what about build quality?
okay, this might be hard to get an answer from the people I want to, but is there anyone who played Metroid 2 back when it came out? Without spoiler I mean?
What I want to know is, how did you react to the ending? Did you try to shoot the larva when it emerged? Did you understand what was going on?
Incidentally, did playing Metroid and Metroid 2 beforehand affect your experience of Super Metroid? Did it made its sacrifice more meaningful
>>4074242
>Did you understand what was going on?
Yes, and I thought it was really cool, one of my favorite game endings still. Don't remember if I tried shooting at it at first, but it's probable.
>Incidentally, did playing Metroid and Metroid 2 beforehand affect your experience of Super Metroid? Did it made its sacrifice more meaningful
I guess but I didn't beat SM until a few years ago
I don't remember, but I think I had been spoilered by Super Metroid by then.
How did you feel about the utilization of screen space/"viewing distance"?
>>4074294
I didn't notice that until people complained about it online years later. Honestly, Metroid 1 doesn't have a lot going on in all that additional space. Might be interesting to compare the player sprite/screen ratio in the newer ones.
I'm an RPG newb, I played Final Fantasy 1 and Dragon Quest 1&2, now I wanted to play Final Fantasy 2 but wtf is this shit?
The leveling system that everyone hates aside, every character has a specific stat for each weapon, in the battle some characters are on the front and some on the back, those on the back can only attack with a bow, you can give a character two weapons, or two shields, or one weapon and one shield, or let them be barehanded (apparently some are better having nothing equipped?), and you don't know what's better
What were they thinking? Please tell me other Final Fantasy games are not like this
pick a weapon and a shield for a frontliner
don't dual wield
have only one character in the front so his evasion will go up faster
give magic to characters in the back row, and use bows to conserve MP
avoid heavy armor
it's really easy once you know what you're doing
I love how people complain that JRPGs have no "game" elements to them, but as soon as you introduce systems that actually require the player to observe and learn suddenly it's too hard.
this game is awesome OP, i have no idea what you are talking about. Never played a final fantasy game ever where i sweat so hard to where i soaked my sheets.
concept art and junk.
Why do beta games always look more interesting than the finished product?

This thread is for the spirited discussion of CRT displays - Televisions, monitors and projectors used for the playing of retro games!
>Try to keep it /vr/-related: Nothing past 5th gen(+ Dreamcast). Slight OT might be okay if related to CRTs (E.G. 16:9 compatible models, flatscreens, etc.) Systems with backwards compatibility are also pretty safe territory, assuming you're focusing on the older games. PC CRTs are also a-ok.
>Produce OC! Get out your real cameras and take beautiful pictures of your CRTs displaying recognizable characters with the kind of beautiful accuracy that brings tears to the eyes of young and old alike! If you take 100 photos, at least one of them will turn out alright! (maybe)
>Try to be as detailed as possible when asking info on a specific model. As always, google is your friend, and we are your friends with benefits. Older archived threads aren't a bad place to look either.
>Share appreciation for others choice of technology and personal philosophy of gaming. As always show courtesy in your discussion and moderate yourselves first.
Discussion of video processing and scaling devices is okay, but try to keep the focus on CRTs and CRT accessories

thanks for the reply, I'd probably still use it to switch video even though it'd be highly inconvenient. That's just the kind of person I am. It would be pretty neat because I could hook up stuff like my n64 and vcr to the receiver. Then whenever I get around to buying some speakers I'll be totally set.
These are the two I'm looking at, again for very cheap.

>find random assortment of NES, SNES, N64 cartridges
>no prices indicated anywhere
>ask guy if he'll sell them for $3 each
>he says no
>he pulls out a phone and starts telling me ebay prices
Is going to garage sales and flea markets even worth it anymore?
Yeah, just not as much. Last weekend I pulled an N64 with 6 good titles and 4 controllers for 20 bucks.
That's it though. Went to 20+ houses and it's all xb360 and DS shovelware.
>>4068932
>Is going to garage sales and flea markets even worth it anymore?
Yes. There will always be jews and jerks, you just gotta shrug it off -- it's part of the hustle. You go to enough of these things and you will find a good deal. Not as many these days, but it's still possible.
That said, I don't personally do second hand sales anymore, I just buy the games I want on ebay or whatever. Going to flea markets or yard sales isn't really about the money "saved" anyways, it's about the thrill of the hunt.
IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR! THE FACT THAT I CAN'T GET EVO FOR 5 DOLLARS ISN'T FUCKING FAIR!!! Seriously OP, what do you expect us to say? "Ooh that big mean garage sale bully wanted actual money for his stuff, what an asshole." Man fuck off.
