You are indeed one of God's own prototypes. Too old to WASD, too master race to gamepad.

I actually have an iBUFFALO Classic USB gamepad and a Logitech F310.

About three-fifty

>Can someone give me a reasonable price for these games?

USD$5 (or less) at a yard sale. eBay / craigslist reseller scum isn't going to give you a fair deal. You're better off hunting bargains at local yard sales or pawn shops.

>>3874362
Agree. Shipping to and from Canada is outrageous. There was a Canadian seller with a JooJoo tablet cheap I really wanted but we just couldn't get the shipping down low enough. Likewise, in the early 2000s I used to sell DSS H cards on eBay and most buyers would tell me just to keep the hardware and just mail the cards in an envelope - and delivery confirmation even for an envelope was still outrageous.

I used to play this game all the time as a kid but i must have used a trainer or something because i don't remember dying so much

It gets easier once you know where all the secret weapon cashes and extra lives are.

Also the scrolling is a bitch. Since your Turrican sprite is off center relative to where you are going, reacting to things coming at you is simply impossible sometimes. Occasionally stopping and going slower will save your ass more times than dying once or twice to the damn clock.

__________________________

At a quick glance I'd suggest Bomberman II, Gauntlet II, R.C. Pro-AM II, Smash TV, Super Off Road, Super Spike V'Ball, Tennis. Maybe Swords and serpents

Played only a few, but with 4 players you will want competitive games. Smash TV and Bomberman are probably your best bet.

Doesn't the fourscore only cost like 2$ ? Not much of an investment

>>3873897
Four Scores are about $30 or $40 nowadays

Gauntlet II looks cheap and cool, I'll pick it up, thanks.

>>3873925

where do you live? I looked both on american and european ebay and they are under 15 dollars, in europe even for 6 Euros. If you auction one you could even get it half price

>Miyamoto: Back when Super Mario Bros. 3 came out, everyone was stressed because they couldn't save, with some even saying they played it through without ever turning off the power! (laughs)

>What are the top games for this thing?
Uh... Tempest 2000.

And that's about it.

>>3873764
>What are the top games for this thing? The top 10 lists are all fucked. I know Doom, Rayman, AVP, and Iron Soldier.
Welp, that's it, that's the top games. Oh and Tempest 2000. The Wolfenstein port is also pretty neat.

>>3873764
Atari Karts. But it's like 200 dollars.

And Wolfenstein 3D.

suck it grampa!

I have yet to encounter malware with downloads from My Abandonware and The Iso Zone though I haven't tried those partiular games. Just run any executable and dll files you download through virustotal to be safe.

As far as Exhumed/Powerslave is concerned, be careful what you download.

Beta versions and bad rips (without music) are very common on "abandonware" sites.
It's recommended that you get the retail version of Exhumed, because it's the most up to date (for instance in the retail version of Powerslave there is a small glitch musics).

Anyway for Exhumed the date of the exe should be March 19 1997 and for Powerslave September 24 1996. That's how you'll know you're not using a beta version (which is particularly fucked, but which has plagued pirate versions of this game ever since release).
As for bad rips, well, you should an iso of the CD, and you should have music playing.

>NOLF

http://nolfrevivalDOTtk/

That is NOLF 1 and 2 with a fanmade patch to get it working on modern systems. Also includes all official patches. It was made after Nightdive failed to get the rights to do a HD re-release so some fans took it upon themselves to do it.

>Exhumed

Powerslave EX is a thing. I unfortunately don't have a link, but I was lucky enough to have some kind anon on /v/ give me a media fire download link.

It's also rumored that Powerslave/Exhumed might be getting an official HD remaster soon.

>Hexen 2

Portal of Pravus was actually surprisingly difficult to find but with a bit of googling and searching random torrent sites and allowing for low seed amounts and a few days to download. You can get it.

I love Digimon <3

>>3875267
Digimon always had such a good plot.

>>3872710
because everything in that game is good

the sequel even has better music

it's also because of the law of ancient ruins in videogames which states:
>If a videogame has an ancient ruins level, then that level will have good music, there are no exceptions to this.
>Corollary: if a game is made up of nothing but ancient ruins, then the entire game will have good music.

>>3872716
That's interesting. I prefer everything in Zwei but the music.

>>3872710
>Sega

because that

>>3872687
Because that was 20 years ago when they actually had to work. They're lazy old farts now that just want to make money off fans and hire a bunch of chinese interns to pump out their shitty kickstarter iphone game.

>>3872687

because in the first place they were just the name in the magazine, they never did the real work

Deception is weird as shit but I liked it then Kagero seemed like maybe it was more accessible but I didn't get into it. They both make sweet monsters in Monster Rancher.

it's a pretty novel idea.
i like how grim all the games are.

>>3872593

I'm a rather big fan of the second title Kagero: Deception 2.

1 and 3 are great, but nothing gets me going like 2. Probably because it was the first one I played, but the whole experience for me is 9/10


I'll say the first one is the least enjoyable for me. The first person aspect seemed off. Glad they switched to third

It's a dirty old Super Scope receiver with a sticker on it.

By 5th Gen plebs that have only played PS1 and don't like FF7 because it's too mainstream for them? Yes

Generally? No, it's rather underrated in the grand scheme of FF fandom. But true connoisseurs of the series who know better will always have it in the top 3.

>>3872223
it's the default choice of hipsters who don't want to be seen as normies for liking FFVII and can't bother to play the older ones because they're massive faggots who can't handle 2D gaming

everything about this game (except audiovisuals) is so mediocre... I've always felt like I was playing a different game when discussing it with people who loved it

Now that I think of it, people who love FFIX also love Legend of Dragoon. That explains it everything
