Not sure if this belongs on /v/ or /vg/, but you guys seem nicer than /v/, so I'll post here.
What do old games have that modern ones don't? Is it just nostalgia, or is there some fundamental difference between how we made games then and how we make them now? For the longest time, I thought that I was just kinda growing out of games as a whole, but then I bought some PS2 games on a whim and I had a total blast with them. These were games that I had no nostalgic connection to before playing them, yet I felt like a kid again when I booted them up. This sort of rekindled my hobby for gaming, and I'm finding that most things 7th gen and prior is still appealing to me, but anything past that isn't (with certain exceptions of course). What's going on here? You guys got any thoughts?

Copies of actual NTSC-UC or PAL games (depending on your region) are pointless.
Copies of games that weren't released in your region (like Terranigma if NTSC-UC), or games with fantranslation patches are kind of eh. They can be cool, but at the end of the day, they're pointless.
Get a flashcart, it will be more economical in the long run.
>>
If you're going to play on real hardware, buy the real game. Flash carts are fine for the convenience of bringing your console to a friend's place, and trying games you haven't played before purchasing. That's it.

- Some Fighting Game, because I'll never buy one of those again after SF2, alternately something weird I haven't seen anywhere else like Spanky's Quest. I never gave a shit about PS1 or N64, which means my rentals can be wild for they are cheap
- Some 80s or early 90s horror movie because I enjoy practical effects and imaginative concepts
- I don't know what snacks they had at Blockbuster, we had Video Kingdom where I lived, no snacks there worth getting, Reeses Pieces I guess

How certain are you that the final boss was the eyeball? Gradius II is set in space and has a giant eye boss, but it is only the second bodd.

ITT:
/vr/ games only you care about.
I like Normality, it's a very unique game. It's a point'n'click adventure from first person perspective. The puzzles are kinda weird and the game overall is pretty "meh". Not bad, but not exceptionally good either. But what I really like about this game is the atmosphere and just the overall feeling of the radical 90s attitude. The game is also very eerie because of how empty it is. You can also sense that the game was rushed because there's lots of red herring, and not the type of red herring you see typically in this type of games, but literally just dead ends that lead nowhere.
For example, there would be areas that the game clearly indicates to be points of interest, but you never get to those areas and/or you never get to use all your items. Some of the dialogue is also referencing to stuff that is clearly not happening on the screen ie. Kent describes that one engineer woman wearing a white labcoat when she clearly is not wearing a labcoat.
I care about this game because of how it plays, how it feels, and how it never got the following I think it deserves. Also, the graphics are comfy as fuck.

Point and click spiritual sequel to Drascula: The Vampire Strikes Back with licenced characters. Only in German and Spanish so it's safe to assume I'm the only person that cares about it here.

Oh nice, I know about those comics, but I never knew there was a video game(s?) based on them. My mom bought some of the comic albums when I was a kid, and even back then I knew they were special. They weren't exactly meant for children, but they had the type of humor both adults and children could appreciate.
The Finnish translation of the comic is "Älli ja Tälli", which roughly translates to "Smarty and Punchy" or "Smart and Punch". It's a play on words because "ällitälli" can be interpreted as something like "minblowing" or "sudden realization".

Sure, Pacman didn't need a platformer, or to be in the 3d world but that doesn't make the game not fun

Currently my collection is:
NES: Super Mario/Duck Hunt, SMB 3, Zelda (saves don't work well)
SNES: Super Mario World (only one)
N64: SM64, Banjo, a Disney Tetris game
Genesis: Sonic 2
Gameboy: Pokemon Crystal, Tetris DX (not focusing on collecting games for this system that much).
My goals are to get a PS One, a Gamecube, and a Dreamcast, but I lack in games for my consoles. What should I start with?

nigga, its cool you have the consoles, but don't call it a collection, your best bet at this point is everdrives - cost effective and not as autistic
>>
>>4180108
This. You missed the boat hard on cheap NES, SNES, N64, and Gamecube games. Your enthusiasm is good, but it's really not worth trying to build a collection for those systems if you're just starting out.
>>
>>4180046
Just focus on the best games of each console and from there the weird but good ones or even better focus on a genre you like

Uh, who knows maybe. It doesn't let you play the lock-on Sonic 3 & Knuckles though, how fucked up is that? Sega pulled it off on Sonic Jam for Saturn, it's inexcusable.
But speaking about that cover... what the fuck is wrong with Sonic's pose? His feet and arms are really off.
