What game are you currently hooked on right now?
>>3982339
Overwatch
It's so good.
Banjo Tooie.Yep, on emulatorPlease, don't bully
>terrible camera
>having to mash a button instead of turbo, potentially wearing it and your finger out
>resets you back to the beginning of the game even if you die on the final boss
Why do people like this shit game again?
Don't just play it for a second or two, sega arcade games are deep.
Only the camera complain is acceptable, for the others just git gut and use autofire if you want
>>3982330
Could just play the Turbografx version
Screen is smaller but you can use autofire and the bullets are slower
I'm looking for games were you move from location to location by using a map that directly warps you to them, as opposed to the classic over-world structure were you walk all the way through. Any examples at all would be much helpful!
Super Mario RPG
Legend of Dragoon
Panzer Dragoon Saga

Chrono Cross/Trigger
Croc:Legend of the Gobo's
Final Fantasy Tactics
Just a headsup for the ex AssemblerGames members, the old forums are dead and we migrated to Obscuregamers.
I don't know about any of these, but do we actually talk about obscure games at Obscure Gamers? Because I'd like to join such a community.
>>3981824
It's about unreleased games and hardware, rare consoles, collections and so on. Pretty much like here, minus the autism, plus several other good folks.
>>3981841
Damn it, I would miss the autism too much. Thanks though.
No other game ever made is as intelligent and rewarding as this.
I disagree.
>>3981445
>>3981445
So it really makes you think?
Doesn't have to be a good game or anything.
Just something you hold dear.
My Grandpa bought pic related for my
11th birthday two weeks before he died
The other day I found my Ridge Racer Hi-spec disc (the bonus one that came with rrt4) that I thought I had lost many years ago.
I felt pissed about having lost it everytime I read something about rrt4 and that is now gone.
>>3981126
Where was it?
>>3981456
Inside a gamecube memory card box where I keep inlays and other memorabilla from the psx era onwards. I think I had looked there before and it is actually a bad place to store the CD (this time I was actually looking for said gc memory card) but I guess I am a bit retarded.
Happy Piccolo Day /vr/! What are you playing to celebrate it?
>>3980853
Piccolo day is on the 13th.
Goku day in Japan is on the 9th.
Dragon Ball Z: Goku Gekitouden in English!

Legendary Super Warriors on the GBC spans all the major plot arcs of the series and is a nice way to re-experience them within a single game with consistent gameplay mechanics and controls.
I was replaying Cruis'n Exotica earlier and I had forgotten how much dumb fun these games are.
Any fans of this series here?
>>3980470
Hell yeah, got all 3 on n64 and used to love playing them in the arcades.
Raw Thrills is putting out a new Cruis'n this year called Cruis'n Blast

Is there any site that lets you download a file that contains like every/ or a shit ton of arcade roms instead of downloading individual titles? I never grew up in the golden age of arcades and have an interest in trying a lot out even if I will never experience the joys of living out the full experience.
There are a surprising amount of fullsets curated directly by archive.org but they are fucking BIG so please make a note of it.
There's several MAMEtorrentsranging from 5-50GB. Choose your poison
>>3980330
I'd guess you could probably find a torrent, but they'd be literally 10s of gigs.
holy shit, the file in which my cousin and I played on back in 1998 is still there
I knew that digging through the attic would make me feel nostalgic but not THIS nostalgic
>>3979759
I went through some of my N64 save files too and I was pretty fucking good at games back then.
Better hurry and get a device to copy the SRAM, that save battery could go at any time
Tell us about your cousin, anon
ITT: Subtle regional differences between games.
inb4 DID YOU KNOW THAT
Holy shit did you know donkey kong picnic etc etc
>>3979662
>regional
Doki Doki is actually a different game from Super Mario Bros 2.
An example of regional differences would be Super Mario Bros 2 and Super Mario USA.
Learning moon runes to play jp retro
How do I learn this? Has anyone done it? I try to use the Google translate app but it isn't perfect.
>>3979659
for me it was easier to learn the words/grammar before the alphabets. Older games usually didn't use Kanji due to memory limitations or had Hiragana/katakana above them anyway.
If you know the words and sentence structure, when you're trying to read something in a game you'll just be able to figure out what it's saying a lot quicker.
>>3979674
Do you have any suggestions on where to start with this? It seems like it may be more trouble than it's worth.
Yes I'm at it for a year now and I can read all the simple stuff like gameboy games. First you need to learn the kana, then get anki to grind vocabulary and get yourself a grammar book like Japanese the Manga way. Then study religiously every day for a couple of hours. The hardest part is to keep at it. Good luck.
Anyone else miss the use of "traditional" art to supplement ingame sprites or early 3D graphics? Character portraits, drawn cutscenes, box and manual art, etc.
Favourite art / artists?
The 90's were a perfect storm of 2D and 3D together, especially in the anime style. It was perfect.

Also, any news on Danny the Master System Rabbit?
Anybody here watch Console Wars? Tbh senpai I think they're corny as fuck and honestly just kind of bad and unfunny, but I find myself coming back to them every now and then. Something charming there
I like how they go over the games point by point and bring up little details I would have cared about as a retarded little kidthough maybe it's just that I want to fuck the Sega guy's mouth
>>3979032
I wanna see the next edition to start with a non cinemass/patcunt image
Just to see if it'll be more or less fucking cancerous
