I'm working on a project that might interest some of /vr/

We're developing a neural network that can learn how to play SFII on the SNES (very similar concept to MarI/O). One of the first steps is to determine which memory addresses in the emulator correspond to things like X position, Y position, lifebar, etc.

We found an incomplete map here:

https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=viewthread&t=33039

But that's for the arcade version and it seems like the memory addresses used are different. Does anyone happen to know some obscure forum where we might find this information?

Why don't you find them yourself, nigga. Get Cheat Engine or something.

Wouldn't you rather chose a simpler game, like Super Mario Bros or something. The CPU is a cheating bastard in SF2.
>>
>>3949163
That's what we'll have to do if no one else has before, but it's pretty time consuming so we're hoping someone has.

>>3949172
The idea is to train it by having 2 neural networks play against each other in VS mode.

I was doing some tech support for a friend and he offered to let me browse through an old spindle of CDs he had and take anything I wanted.

Found a loose copy of Shining Force III for the Sega Saturn and decided to take it, it's in pretty good shape and I tested it on an emulator and it seems to be working just fine.

Where should I sell this thing? Do any of you want it? 99.99 seems to be the average for a caseless copy, I'm looking for around $75 shipped.

I'll give you a dollar for it.

I prefer Amazon because it's the fastest way to list. Don't need to add photos or anything, just say it's CD only and describe the condition accurately (assuming you already have a seller account)

Fees are about the same as eBay with the shipping credit.

You could also try some forums like cheapassgamer or neogaf.
>>
>>3946805
Listed it on Amazon, didn't have a seller account but wasn't hard to register.

Can live with the fees and walk away with 72.99 and still significantly undercut similar sellers. Thanks!

Pic related, it was the first time in my life I considered suicide might be a better option.

Do we really not have a Brood Wars thread?

Thanks to it going free and I started up Starcraft for the time since 2005 or 2006, holy hell has it aged well. Runs and plays as smoothly and intuitively as ever, and the Terran campaign still feels comfy. Love the voice work and overall atmosphere.

Anyone else re-visiting the game? Just as fun as you remember?

Re-visiting it as well thanks to that new patch. The game sure aged well, and somehow I got worse at it. The music keeps me gong just like back in the day.

The application for being an eceleb has long been too late. The only way to make youtube videos and get popular these days are to show an extreme amount of autism or be politically or racially risque.
No, I just want to find cool games that aren't Earthbound/Megaman/Mario/Zelda that everyone already knows about.

what country are you from? here in the US theyre getting more expensive by the day.

And not even repros gonna cause a drop, just last week at a convention one seller had a bunch of N64 repros, Conker, Paper Mario, Sin and Punishment and some others.

He wanted $45 for Paper Mario, and $40 for Sin and Punishment.

Absolutely retarded if you ask me, i can get the Japanese cart of Sin and Punishment for less than that.

They're both good, but the second one too many gimmick levels. The genesis version of the first one is better but the SNES version of 2 is better.

Second one doesn't have THE TUUUUBES so it's automatically better. You know what level I'm talking about.

I really just want to create some little 8 bit games as a hobby, where should I start? I've Googled around but only find stupid click bait type guides. I want to basically start from scratch, or at least as close as possible. If there's a better board to ask please direct me and I'll delete this thread myself.

Get a C64, or any other microcomputer, and you can write one in BASIC. Just download some old user magazines for a tutorial.
>>
>>3953558
Any 8-bit microcomputer, to clarify.
>>
>>3953558
C64 is probably the "easiest" and also thankfully has insanely much literature regarding the subject (how to work with 6502)
Once you nail C64 down and feel comfortable, you might want to jump into NES. While it's 6502 too, it's a bit more convoluted.
After being proficient in 6502 and understanding the inner workings of NES, you could read the wikibook on SNES development. 65c816 is different but somewhat similar.

Notice: before you can even jump into C64 dev you must at least understand the basics of low-level shit. At the very least you should be able to understand and count in binary & hex, understand bitwise operators and the basics of assembly (check out https://skilldrick.github.io/easy6502/ for an interactive overview!)

One thing you must also understand that this shit isn't easy. You're better off doing game maker pixelshit for normies.
But if you're really determined to do it, good luck!!

ITT Sequels inferior to their originals in every possible way

I tried this game out last night out of curiosity because I've always heard how shitty it is compared to Zombies Ate My Neighbors and boy they weren't lying. It felt really floaty and unresponsive and I seemingly couldn't die even when I get attacked by a whole bunch of shit so I said fuck it, I kept playing hoping to knock it off my backlog. Beat World 1 and got to the samurai place. Here's where the bullshit really picks up, so I spawn in and there's a survivor I didn't know was a survivor because he had samurai gear on and just about fucking everybody in this game is out to kill you and a demon runs up and kills him and I get a game over. This all happened within a span of about five seconds so there's no way in hell anybody could've figured it out on their first try. Think I'm a liar? Do it yourself. Literally one kill and it's game over, start the whole game all over again. If that isn't horseshit, I don't know what is. Fuck this game.

It got me thinking though, what other games on /vr/ consoles/handhelds have sequels that are much worse than the original?

What's your audio setup for retro gaming?

I've been posting around different places and asking but figured I could just make a thread here and see what everyone says.

So what do ya'll use? I some CRT's in my room but don't have dedicated speakers for them. I was looking at picking up some big 90's stereo system speakers but after some research I'm shying away from them. Now I'm looking for cheap big bookshelf speakers and a cheap but good amp to drive them.

thoughts?

Speakers in most CRTs really are pretty good, it's the newer flat panel TVs that have shit speakers simply because speakers can't be that thin and still sound good at a distance. I use a pair of pretty small JBLs (that sound surprisingly good) with the LCD TV in my bedroom that probably date back 15 years or so, and a nice Sony surround set from the late 90s in the living room.
