S&K is the better of the two IMO.

Could just be nostalgia tho since I owned and played the shit out of S&k a couple years before I picked up S3.

6/10 (I don't hate it as much as people usually do)
>Lava Reef
10/10
>Hidden Palace/Sky Sanctuary

>Death Egg/Doomsday
8/10

S&K is the clear winner for me

S&K is awesome, S&3 feels nice but it feels like its getting you ready for S&K. Also sonic 3 feels too much like the other games with the typical water level, grass level, carnival level, eggman level.

It's almost like RPG developers should just kill themselves for making such an unfun genre.

I remember enjoying this at my friend's birthday party in the 80s but I don't remember the port quality at all now.
We spent most of the night playing Gauntlet 2 anyway.

That looks a heck of a lot closer to the arcade than the DOS version I used to play the hell out of an was still fun. Spy Hunter was pretty great back then, not so sure how any version holds up now though.

Man, you suck at this game. I wasn't even that bad when it first came out in my early teenage years.

>>3870203
I know I'm pretty bad at video games, but I didn't have that much trouble with 1-7, 13, 14, and 15.

Dunno. I always loved it and do my yearly playthrough.

Guess it's not for you. I never had to ''force'' myself to love it.

Chrono's Triggers

Mario 2 + 3

Mega Man series

These are just the obvious ones.

Physical media appreciates. However! The digital archives are insured beyond your wildest dreams. More than a years salary. Physicals may be ok. I believe in digital content. How about you? Collect yourself a title nobody will ever put in their collection. Market it as unfindable ever again. Pretend you need someone to find it. Add a story of mystic origin. I do this sometimes for the obscure gems in my collection. A sucker born everyday. A week after the alarm is raised to scour the earth for the title post an. Ad on craigalist with the title alongside other titles nonchalant. Screenshot and post it saying GUYS LOOK . Gouge the price. Some hero will pay for your trash.

I'm a teen, so I have no nostalgia for it.

For CD based games it's an absolute must. For cartridges, depending on the price hike for it being complete, it's a matter of how much I like the game.

to me theyre worth nothing if the boxes are cardboard, if the cases are plastic then hell yeah i want it just bc it looks better on a shelf

>>3868816
If it's Genesis then I always buy with cases because it's easy to pick them up cheaply and in decent condition. For SNES most games are sold as loose carts and if they have a box then it's normally beaten up quite badly so I never bother.

>>3868757
PS1 only allows up to two players, and it has real problems with that. n64 version is much better.

>>3868760
True. But the N64 only allows 4 players if you use an Expansion Pack though.

>>3868765
And if you're play in N64 without the expansion pack you're doing it wrong already

and yet you prove them wrong. But hey good job mimicking what some random eceleb told you about a game you never touched

I don't get it.

Just riding the bandwagon.

There are some people with a rather irrational hate or aversion to the Pi here, but it shouldn't be surprising considering there are threads dedicated to CRTs and other outdated or otherwise inconvenient hardware.

I've got a Pi 3, it runs all of the games I want to play and I haven't really noticed any real input lag or issues with it aside from slowdown in some of the more taxing games I've tried. It's gotten me to play more than I would have if I'd gone through all the trouble and cost of finding original hardware, cartridges or discs, converters for current generation televisions or finding/purchasing an older television, then making space for it in all in my house.

I'm not going to deny input lag exists. But if it's not super noticeable then I'm not sure I even really care about it at all, considering the alternative.

>>3868305
I've noticed slowdowns during the first Legend of Zelda game where goblins can cause massive lag.
