Is playing imports to save money "nigger tier"?
No, nigger tier is emulation.
Imports is smart-tier, especially if it's text-heavy and you can read it.
Anyway, Super Metroid was released in the west in like 1994 or 95. You could have gotten it back then or even in the early 00s for pretty cheap.
Imports of classic games like that to pay less isn't nigger tier but gen Z-tier.

The Great Debate
3 is better in almost every way. It'd be a flawless game if not for the dreaded GOLF.
>>3825348
This, except I liked the golf, although it is a pointless interruption of the platforming.
2, by far.

I know this series has been very famous but i never owned a game or had the chance to experience it. Thing is we're all the way on the 15th title now, so where do i start off?
It'd be easier to recommend where to start if we knew what other jrpgs you played, if you played any
VII is the most popular so try there, I guess
FF5 is pretty solid gameplay wise. If you look for more epic, FF6 or FF7 might be your thing.

I look forward to your thread about how grinding is annoying and the stories being lacklustre.
Post some /vr/ world maps/level maps/map based on /vr/ games
Reminder that this is the ACTUAL Doom 2.
More like Doom NUMBER 2
Imagine if Perdition's Gate completed in time for id to put it in Final Doom.
What games should I play via MAME? Been enjoying Bubble Bobble and Alien Syndrome, but there's just so many I'm not sure what to try next.
Watch game sacks left in the arcade series on YouTube.
>>3836113
This, more or less.
But, regardless, you're being pretty vague. What genre/genres are you looking to play, OP? A lot of great arcade games (Sega Model 2 and Model 3 for instance) have their own emulators to function, and then there's Demul for Naomi, Atomiswave and those obscure Sega boards as well, so you might want to branch out from just using mame.

What is your opinion of bilinear filtering on emulators? To me, it is way too blurry. I prefer the nearest filter instead.
Why is it enabled by default in RetroArch?
Pic related.

>Why is it enabled by default in RetroArch?
Because idiots don't know about scaling artifacts.
its improves graphics a lot, huge sharp pixels look like ass
>>3835750
It's the closest thing to a CRT without using filters.
What are some good games for these platforms besides Castlevania?
Dungeon Explorer 1 and 2. r-type. Ys. Splatterhouse
Was basically a 16 bit NES only it didn't get as many good games.
All the Bonk games, Splatterhouse, Bloody Wolf, Blazing Lazers, R-Type, Neutopia, Legendary Axe, those were some of my favorites as a kid
what's the best Belmont and why is it Richter
It's the OG Shimon Belmondo
Richter "Sexual Storm" Belmont

Hey /vr/, I just got an EZ Flash so I could play my gameboy advance roms on my original gameboy but I'm having trouble getting it set up.
I've downloaded the kernel and client, did the thing where you hold R after turning on the power, waited for it to update, and all that stuff, but it doesn't seem to be working properly. After copying a game (Metroid Fusion) to the SD card using the EZ client, the game doesn't work when I try to boot it up in the flash cart.
Also the language is stuck in Chinese, it never gives me the option to change it to English. I've followed guides to the letter and started over multiple times, is there something wrong with my cart or am I just retarded? Please tell me if I'm doing something obviously wrong.
Okay, so I managed to get a rom working by using an older version of the firmware, for some reason the latest doesn't version doesn't want to work.
The roms take quite a few seconds to boot up though, is this normal?
Also the language is still stuck in English. Sorry for being such a newfag but I'm fucking sick to death of shitty youtube tutorials and 'ILL PM YOU THE FIX ;)' forums.

You're doing something obviously wrong. Try again when you're not drunk. kek
>>3834423
I mean my original gameboy advance, the one I've owned since they were first released.
Just bought this. What am
I in for?
Get used to playing games with the sound turned off, and also only playing games that have been modified to work on those things. That said, I've been meaning to get one myself.
>>3834292
Why no sound
>>3834337
The expansion port that that plugs into can't stream audio fast enough, games with streaming audio stutter like crazy. The gameplay is fine, any streaming audio is not. The games modified for SD card that you see usually have the music stripped out or seriously lowered in quality to facilitate the read speeds.
ITT: It's 2050
Man, Nintendo's new console is a fuckin JOKE. It's over. Nintendo is finished.
>>3833771
So even in the future, you've decided to talk about not-retro
>>3833779
It's the premise of OP's topic. The fuck do you want from me?
What are the best weapon ratios for this game?
I like to do two homing for crowd control, two lancer for big damage. Best weapons in the game and having a backup of each means you can switch when one gets low on energy. I'm sure lancers can even fire underwater for that one boss battle.
>>3833609
Why are you playing this and not Gunstar Heroes?
>>3833692
Are you me or that setup is naturally superior?
