Name the HARDEST video game you can think of for Non Nintendo systems
>Kid chameleon

Mike Cerny go back to /v/.
Wizardry 4 was never ported to a Nintendo system.

OP said Non Nintendo
Besides tracking down an arcade cab, what's the best way to play House of the Dead today?

Model 2 emulator by elsemi, a screenshot of which you're displaying right now since the game doesn't run at a high resolution
>>3845421
Yep, easy to set up with an Aimtrak or other sensor based gun. Even fun with a mouse.

what?
Why is Mega Man 6 the best Mega Man game and the best 8-bit platformer ever made?
It's not but it is a great game.
If enemy and bosses were better it would be fantastic even.
I've started romhacking MM6 after finishing updating my MM5 hack and I've already found some cool things... and I've barely started. I think it really has a lot of potential.
Why did you feel the need to remake this thread? Just reread the old one.

Its better than 5

how much did cost you that castlevania?
>>3838195
55€ which is not that bad considering what the game is going for on ebay. Plus it is in perfect conditions.
Here is my latest purchase. Bloodlines and Wonderboycases :^).
Has there been any shitshows bigger than what happened at sega?
Sega's at least still making games, y'know.

Atari.
How important is it to you that a game comes complete?
>>3850982
>All discs
Duh
>Case
I'd prefer it, but I can replace it and print a cover if I have too.
>Manual
Not essential, but it's really really nice to have.
>Inserts
Nah. Unless it's something like a map or poster I won't give an extra fuck about it.
In the case of disc games, the case is an absolute requirement in addition to the manual if it serves as the cover
Discs.
Cover is a bonus. Anything else is sheer autism tier.
So we can all agree this guy is the best animal buddy, right?

FUCK YOU
>>3843785
thats nothing

Those items completely destroy the difficulty though. If you win them without save states, you've earned it.
>>3843846
It's not like the game is overly difficult as it is.
I'm of 2 minds on this (a lá Cloud):
On the one hand Cloud and Aeris's platonic friendship was cute as heck. They're both puzzled about their past. Neither can guess where they fit into this jigsaw that is their quest TO SAVE the planet. Aeris learns she's an Ancient and is given precious advice while Hojo spills the beans on Cloud not being all that he seems. A airing for the ages of you ask me. And cute as all get out! A guy can dream. Which leads me to my other mode of thinkin':
OKAY COME ON! They're amazing together. Aeris is pure, holy, a dollop of sweet Spring nectar to the bitter and repressed stingers Cloud (a bee) has equipped. He's solemn and it isn't until he crashes into Aeris's garden (so many entendres omg) that he creeps out of his shell. Aeris is just beautiful. Considering I fancy myself a Cloud personality type myself it may interest you to know I'd definitely fancy her hand over the other girls. I may seem quiet, a little tightly wound even (can ya blame me!)- but I know Aeris would keep the flame inside of me burning like an Olympic torch. With that I could conquer any fiend in Midgar all the way to the Ruby Weapon (if you know anything about FFVII lore then you'd know Ruby Weapon could demolish any sad sack of varnish in his wake. Even Sephiroth would get squashed. ). I love you Aeris and cried like a baby when you died. The first time I played the game and you died hit me harder than any personal "IRL" death. When I think of Aeris I sorta... ugh never mind.
In all my hearts hearts I would have loved to have seen them both together. For real. In all of video games no other coupling has compared. These souls were meant for each other. Sephiroth split them apart in one of the cruelest acts of man's viciousness ever displayed in a video game narrative. It rivals the old texts of scholars and professorial language in terms of depth and weight. It is a transcendental moment in a medium often considered mindless entertainment. We hurt on a very primal level when she went. I'm still torn up over it.
We are all Cloud. His despair. His longing to save the planet. His confusion. But never are we more like Cloud than in that moment when he says goodbye to the possibilities inherent in Aeris's existence. Whisked away to the lifestream our lead is left alone. By the end of the game when the planet is saved, we return to her. At the end of the day this would never have happened without her. It's a beautiful thought. It may not be romance but it is the pairing of two souls to do something extraordinary. It's just beautiful.
I love this troll
>>3838179
Agreed OP. One of the best romances in vidya.
What do you think of Luigi /vr/?
I was so fucking angry about Mario Is Missing, to this day I still literally cannot even.
I never liked Merio characters at all. I'm pretty sure that if they hadn't become well-known by pure chance, no one would think anything of them.
He's great in Super Mario Kart. And better than Tails.
I think I'm developing a weird addiction to mediocre 5th gen movie tie-ins.
>>3835830
Why is Konami involved in this mess ? I don't know what to expect, and it makes me curious
Then you have a lot to look forward to, years of joy ahead. envy you
Just got to end game
What's some of the most broken combinations you can have
I'm playing the IOS version so I have the extended jobs list
I usually have two freelancers with X-fight and spell blade
and two mimes both with X-magic
one with black/white
the other with Dimen/Summon
blue mages and chemists are broken I know, and bards can be pretty stupid, I don't know how to utilize the former two very well
help me /vr/?
also FFV general?
>>3833003
Not that easy to play the RPGe version on my phone
>>3832994
You could do the same thing I did and emulate the patched gba version.
As for your question regarding chemists and blue mages you check out this, it's designed for the fiesta but the advice applies to non-variant runs too.

I always wondered why the GBA version is always recommended?
Best Non-Nintendo handheld?
Yes.
PSP, nigga.
>We're doing it! We're going to save SNk from bankruptcy! We've got better graphics, it's starting to sell, & we're finally getting some third party support
>What could Nintendo POSSIBLY compete?
I felt so bad for SNK. This handheld had possibly the worst timing in video game history.
Previous thread >>3794854
This thread is for the spirited discussion of CRT displays - Televisions, monitors and projectors used for the playing of retro games!
>Try to keep it /vr/-related: Nothing past 5th gen(+ Dreamcast). Slight OT might be okay if related to CRTs (E.G. 16:9 compatible models, flatscreens, etc.) Systems with backwards compatibility are also pretty safe territory, assuming you're focusing on the older games. PC CRTs are also a-ok.
>Produce OC! Get out your real cameras and take beautiful pictures of your CRTs displaying recognizable characters with the kind of beautiful accuracy that brings tears to the eyes of young and old alike! If you take 100 photos, at least one of them will turn out alright! (maybe)
>Try to be as detailed as possible when asking info on a specific model. As always, google is your friend, and we are your friends with benefits. Older archived threads aren't a bad place to look either.
>Share appreciation for others choice of technology and personal philosophy of gaming. As always show courtesy in your discussion and moderate yourselves first.
Discussion of video processing and scaling devices is okay, but try to keep the focus on CRTs and CRT accessories

Do most CRTs have a deinterlace mode hidden somewhere? After seeing what 240p through component looks like on my Wii it's hard to play Wii/GC/PS2 games in 480i.
>>3817597
Could just be that 480p on an LCD looks better than 480i on a CRT, hombre. I usually play not retro games on modern displays via component myself.
>>3817621
I should try with snes station through scart then, will post some pictures later if I can
Anyone here know some devs that made ero games on the PC-88?
All of them.
Koei, Enix, Falcom, ASCII and so on.
>>3851238
I mean exclusively, I want to get rid of that shit
>>3851242
Can't you cross reference it with the X1, FM7, PC98 and MSX libraries?
That should show you most PC88 exclusives.
