capcom does this occasionally.

the point of them is to test the waters to see if anyone even still wants new games...

>they did it with street fighter for SF4
>they did it with with marvel vs capcom for MvC3
>they did it with resident evil for RE7
>they did it with darkstalkers which is why the series is still dead
>they did it with devil may cry but the jury is still out on how that did

...as for why they cancelled the new MM games i have no doubt in my mind it had everything to do with spiteing keji for leaving

>>4180242
not retro

>>4180436
fuck off, it's more retro than discussing fucking dreamcast

>>4180159
I watched one of cousins play this game when I was really young. The turkeys terrified me.

Shit controller design forced jumps to be automatic.

It was an elegant solution to a problem that didn't need to exist.

>>4179570
Just because not many have done it right doesn't mean the concept is bad altogether.
StarTropics for instance pulled it off pretty well...

Hi /v/, welcome to /vr/. This a slow board, please use the catalog, we already have a SOTN thread.

>>4178851
Musics kinda good i guess. And like always nostalgia for something that handy really been done much before.

>>4178851
Beby's first syndrome

Just get a GameCube to N64 adapter and configure the sticks to be swapped

I can't play Quake 2 without strafe jumping.

>>4178783
Uhm..... NO?!

>>4175251
It wasn't your fault, DC. The world just wasn't ready for you.

>>4175257

This list was clearly made by someone who just browsed Wikipedia.

>>4174327

I liked it but only 4 episodes kills me. Wtf netflix

>>4174327
Bad: goat talk, generic designs, really strong focus on "church is sooo evil" agenda, using SotN Alucard design. Music as well.
Animation was good.

I like what's out so far, but I really want more.

94/95: crude oil
96: the game that defined KOF
97: nonexistent music, cheap infinites, huge damage
98: the norm
99: backroll lol
2000: bori bori bori uppa
2001: honk honk
2002: second best
2003: mahvel babee
XI: slide slide
XII: incomplete lol

97 is unbalanced as fuck, Benimaru dominates the game
98 is more balanced, there's a ton of viable characters
Each game of the striker era (99~2001) has some sort of cringy shit, I think 2000 is the better one. 2001 is a non-game.
2002 is mostly like 98, no wonder it got chosen as the "final" version for tournaments (there were tournament versions of KOF 2002 until 2012)

I always felt 99 was underrated. Flawed and certainly not deserving of the best game title but it was a fun game.

Awesome as fuck OST too

Fallout 1 has better stealth design as they have enemies doing patrols for example, Fallout 2 the characters are a bit more static. I think the best way to get past things is to smash the combat mode button and using your action points to run past them

>>4170880
Stealth is almost useless for what you want to do. It's for engaging enemies on your terms, stopping the whole map from aggroing all at once, and for stealing items from lockers, not for ninjaing past everything.

>>4171029
>>4171026

I want to fight enemies, but I want to be able to start the combat once I'm next to them, not having them detect me from 5-6 tiles away, preferably start the combat while behind them because I have silent killer perk now.

That was kind of a long way to go to ask for PCE recommendations lol.

The PCE was brilliant and actually was responsible for the entire direction of the 4th gen. Nintendo had such huge success with the Famicom that it rested on its laurels so Hudson and NEC realized that technology had progressed and cheapened enough for something that was a "better famicom" to basically be a sure thing so that's exactly what they built, a faster famicom with more memory and better graphical hardware and that's exactly what the hu-card games play like. Just go through a romset, they're not that big, and you'll see. I recommend checking out Neutopia 1 & 2 for extremely obvious examples of what I mean.

Then they were also the ones to realize that CD-Rom was going to be a thing and to release a proper, successful CD add-on something Sega rushed to copy and Nintendo ultimately had to accept being behind the curve on. Rondo is the perfect example of a game that is a solid basic type of game plus awesome CD enhancements. Check out Dragon Slayer too.

THEN they realized that their card slot wasn't doing much when games were being played from CD so they released memory expansions that continued to expand the life of their console. Having the best quality ports of mega-hit arcade games was an important thing back then but you might look at Mad Stalker or Brandish to see how the tech remained very comparable to late SNES games of these genres.

Pc Engine was ultimate in shooters and strong in RPGs. It was decent for platformers and poor for beatemups.

Parasol stars, salamander, liquid kids, air zonk, super dodgeball and sonson ii are all extremely impressive hucards

>>4171083
Only Air Zonk is on the Virtual Console. Its a shame considering I would have probably have gotten Parasol Stars and Liquid Kids had they been available.

>>4166424
Nigga thats exactly what open world games have you do

>>4166424
>replaying levels but this time enemies one shot you, while your damage output is halved

>>4166426
right, if anything it's more popular in modern games

>>4159856
Only played IV and V, but loved both. Any recs? Also loved FF IV, V, and VI. Favourite party member is obviously the fat merchant guy from IV, just because of the way the game really puts you back at zero for a while.

Favorite personally is VII. I love the episodic style and the job system a lot. The cast is fun and I honestly never feel bored despite the length of the game.

desperate attacks can suck my dick

>>4191006
The child laguna and that one woman from Winhill, right? Wouldn't that make her not a sorceress?

>>4191010
Ellone could make people see the past, so actual sorceress wanted to take advantage of this

>>4191006
No. No.

>how do people have their own taste?
This is what you sound like. Fuck off to >>>/v/

>>4189165
music is subjective
usa ost is alright, but no usa "past" tracks kill it

the same way people can like pro wrestling or gangsta rap I guess

>anotha day, another muh-fuggin' WD hate bread

shiiieeeeeet

>a font that's actually readable
You might want to consider investing in a pair of glasses instead.
