I'm currently playing Policenauts using a controller and the aiming is such ass that it's making me really consider getting a Playstation Mouse but I don't know if it would be worth it for just one game. Are there any other good games that make use of it?
I'm also thinking of getting a SNES mouse sometime. Mice and keyboards for consoles in general are kind of interesting to me.

There is a list of games at the bottom. I never even knew there was a mouse for the Playstation.

the Saturn version supports the 3D pad so you can use the analog stick instead of dpad.
What /vr/ plays by itself when you leave it to idle? Pic
unrelated.
I think that's a modern concept like those cookie clicker things.
But anyway, virtual pets and Tamagotchi.

I think some Rot3k strategy games allowed you to set all the players as AI but that's not fun to watch.
Castlevania
Ghosts n Goblins

ITT: talk about ""Metroidvania"" games which were around before Metroid 1. I'll start with the obvious one.
>>4212050
metroidvania is a meme-genre just like roguelike
>>4212221
No it isn't.

Urist would like to have a word with you.
Does /vr/ like Megaman Xtreme 1 and 2? I am playing them now. I skipped Extreme Mode in the first game because apparently it is all the same bosses, but I read in the second game there's a new boss and also you can unlock a boss rush mode. So I beat a level as Zero and noticed only he got a new ability, not X. So how will that work, in terms of being able to get all the upgrades? Or will there always be a weapon available that can break down barriers?
Also, if I just play the stages as the character they were intended for, can I get them both all their health and armor upgrades?
Loved it. Some levels have new layouts. Unfortunately I can't remember much about it, I'm sorry.
Meh. They're clunky downgrades of MMX1-3 that try to pretend they aren't.
What do you consider the most aesthetic piece of hardware?
My vote goes to the GBC. It's sturdy but comfortable, the design is simple but features all the essentials and it's all housed in a sexy, colourful case.

I always found the Pocket to be just a bit sleeker than the Colour. Percaps because it's a little more angular and a bit flatter.
My pick out of the Game Boy line would be the SP, but that's >not retro.
How does the history of videogames change if Super Mario Bros 3 kept the isometric view it was intended to have? It was the biggest console videogame in the world up until that point. Would it have made SMW isometric? What would happen to all the 2D platformer Mario clones?

So my speaker isn't working on my gameboy and I've found out it has to do with the headphone jack. Bottom line, I need a replacement jack but I can't find one. Does anyone know where I can buy one? Is it just easier to buy a "for parts" gameboy?

That has spring contacts instead of pins, good luck soldering it into a game boy.
>>4208761
You need a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack that's through hole and has a switch to cut off the speakers when headphones are plugged in. You might be able to get your speakers to stay on all the time just by bridging some contacts on the back of the jack.

speaking of gran turismo, i have GT 24 and 6
but only ever bothered playing the arcade mode for 2, are the rest worth getting into?
i love games with a good sense of speed that are fun to handle like in wipeout and ridge racer and always thought the gt games would be too slow for me

Probably never. PS1 translations are rare and Wizardry is pretty niche.
Does anyone know where to get this? This was my vrry first game ever. I need it.
>>4208001
If abandonware-france.org don't have it, you're in big trouble to find a such thing.

Fuck they dont have it. Thanks anyeay my man
We can all agree this is the best Mario Kart right?
The best handling and map design. Best multiplayer too
>SMK still has an active competitive scene with world championships every y ear
>the others don't
That should tell you everything you need to know
>any mario kart not DS
>not CTR
Mario Kart Double Dash has logitech wheel support so that one
I got this for free this weekend on PS1. I haven't had a chance to play it. Is it any good?
>>4207571
an interesting twist on the resident evil formula, but the enemy variety and enviroments are lacking imo
>>4207571
Feels like a mix of resident evil & GTA V but with more emphasis on puzzle solving in between characters. It's a very interesting concept and ambitious for it's time period. I liked it, and I would check it out.
Is the PS1 version the bad version? it feels very sluggish and not as fluid as Resident Evil.
