Were I the only one?

>>4218128
I played it, but it's been so long I barely remember the mechanics. Enjoyed it while I did though. I enjoyed the castle battles a lot.

>>4218128
I've never heard of this before, looks cool as fuck. What exactly does the gameplay consist of?

>>4217467
what you call play was probably just wandering around levels because you were too stupid to know what to do

>>4217493
i know this but as a kid it looked awesome and i always wanted to go back and play it but i had no idea what it was called
also maybe it wasnt this one but another game in the franchise as the mechas look exactly like i remember them but not the map

>>4217498
map? there's more than one level you know. and also differences in quality depending what you use to render the game.

Any of the NES Dragon Quests, Salamander, Berzerk. SNK vs Capcom Card Fighters is also up there.

Your pic related actually, i managed to get 293 cards in around 80 hours but in the Capcom version.

as good as they say?

It's 7/10, 8/10 if you like these kinds of games.

If you're playing for the 80s Japan kung fu movie atmosphere you'll have a blast. If you're playing for gameplay you'll grow bored of it before you get to the first gang fight.

Thanks but those are a bit expensive. Is that the only way to do it?

Seems the best option is to use the HDMI and convert that to VGA and then hook it up to an old computer monitor.

Yeah, maybe. It is an undeniable truth that Kiddie Kong sucks.

Kiddy sucks but Donkey is the worst character to play as in the whole trilogy.

Seriously, the difference in speed and handling between Donkey and every other character is mind boggling.

Maybe a non-shit Donkey would be better than Kiddy, but if it's a choice between him and DKC1 Donkey then I'm picking Kiddy every time.

I don't know, there's something adventurous about pirate levels and entering foggy forests. DKC3 has you playing around sawmills, cabins and more of the same from DKC1 (water, icy terrain).

For some reason as a kid I thought Link's hair was a big floppy nose sticking out from under his hat and that the face under his hair was a beard.
I'd blame Lost Vikings if I hadn't played that after LTTP.

I still have no idea what's going on with Arek the Absolute's sprite in Lufia 2.

Have at it. I freely admit, I can't beat it legit withour AR codes. There is a continue cheat which I will allow for a legit play through. If you are a madman, just run with your 2 extra lives.

>Japanese come to dominate the video game industry
When the FUCK did that ever happen? Sure Nintendo, Capcom and Konami were huge but they always had American subsidiaries that developed their own sometimes better games.
Sega of America always was the better side of the company while their Japanese counterpart constantly shot themselves in the foot.

Jap games never even mattered all that much.

>>4214648
Namco, Data East, SNK

Joust, Ms Pacman, Satan's Hollow, Defender, Rampage, NARC, Berzerk, Robotron, Total Carnage, Mortal Kombat, NBA JAM, San Francisco Rush, Hydro Thunder, were all huge hits and excellent arcade games.
>Japs dominating
Said no one, ever. Fucking weeabos.

It's a bit of a meme game, but that box is pretty sweet.

The whole point of playing and collecting Neo Geo games is the ownership of the hardware...
If you're chimp out and use petty corner-cutting measures, you could just emulate since the dawn of time. That's why nobody's talking about it.

I like FF5s and FF:T. Third edition D&D has a good one but I don't know if like Baldur's Gate even begins to accurately represent it or maybe NWN? Is that even retro?

>Third edition D&D has a good one but I don't know if like Baldur's Gate even begins to accurately represent it

That's because Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale were 2E. Icewind Dale 2, Temple of Elemental Evil and Neverwinter Nights were 3.0, with Neverwinter Nights 2 being the only D&D game using 3.5.

ahahah nobody appreciates that piece of shit

I think you an I were probably the only ones here old enough to have play this thing. I remember being about 4 or 5 at the time, my dad showing me how to play Dungeon Master and Frontier Elite II. I still have the system somewhere up in my attic. What were some of the games you played?

/vr/ hates the amiga for having mediocre platformers but loves fucking commander keen

Only played like 5 seconds of this game, so this should be interesting.
