>100 dollars in marketing

I assume you meant $100,000? The idea of such cheap marketing amuses me nonetheless.

Looking at the sheer amount of prerendered CG in the game you can see where the money went, that shit wasn't cheap back then. Toy Story came out a bit over a year earlier and that only cost $30 million. It was a super ambitious investment.

I'm going to go to a Japanese imports store soon that has a fuckton of Famicom games, which I can play on my NES with a converter.

What are your recommendations? The only problem is I can't speak Japanese so it would help to also know what the covers look like.

How about you start learning?
Katakana is already enough for 75% of all titles and Hiragana covers another 20%, both of them take like a day to learn.
>>
>>3295281
Everything that isn't an rpg. Just go for some in general recommended action games/platformers that are cheaper than their pal/ntscu counterparts. No knowledge of japanese needed.
Love the tiny and colorful famicom carts btw.

I played Descent 3 at release back in 1999. It was quite good, but I preferred Forsaken (64 and PC).

For some reason I never really looked into 1 and 2. I bought them on GoG and installed Rebirth (sourceport). I have to say, I am fucking amazed by how good these games are.

I was playing them simultaneously, got to around 3 levels in on both, and decided that they were good enough to try from scratch on Insane difficulty. I hate save scumming in games, so I aim to only save at level start.

These games are very tough on Insane. I am using a flightstick but wonder if an xbox 360 controller might give me more aiming precision. Any thoughts on this?

Does anyone know how I can check remaining enemies and remaining secrets in a level? There aren't really any online guides and I feel like I need every bit of help I can get. (I've beaten Doom episodes 1 - 3 without saving on Nightmare!, and these are basically only possible for my skill level knowing exactly what secrets are where).

While playing with a flightstick might be more fun in some way, playing it with keyboard and mouse is way way way easier. If you think about it, it plays more like a FPS than a flight game. You aim exactly like in fps and you dodge projectiles exactly like a fps. You basically just have noclip on.
I personally use the flight stick but only because i have one and want to use it cause its cool.
>>
>>3295016
Interesting, didn't think of KB&M due to very limited button/axis control. The 'coolness' factor of a flightstick wears off quickly when you're getting your shit pushed in for the 20th time due to lack of precision aiming.
>>
>>3295016
>>3295025
The other problem is you need to control 6 axis's and a flight stick only has 3.
This means you need either 2 flight sticks or a 6dof joystick.

2 flight sticks can be fun but unwieldy, and 6dof joysticks are expensive.

I've been dealing with this scenario all month. These CL sellers think everything retro is fucking gold.
> Seller: Well that's the price of X game on Amazon!
Me: Yeah well I have a prime membership and get free shipping, buy from a respected seller, and have a receipt for the transaction, and is covered by Amazon if shit dosent work. So why buy from you for the same price?
> Seller: Quit trying to lowball me!

I give up.

Prime only applies to things "fulfilled by Amazon" so most independent sellers don't get the benefit.

Also

>Be that faggot who harasses sellers instead of just ignoring them if you don't like their prices
>>
>>3294924
Its called negotiating. You do it on CL. Welcome to America.
>>
>>3294924
There posts usually even say best price or will negotiate. If the seller dosent want to they usually say "firm" on price. That's not the issue. The issue is EBay and Amazon being used by people at fucking garage sales and CL as a price guide. My point being is that " yeah thats what Amazon sellers want for it but it dosent make it the price and if you want Amazon prices , fucking sell it on Amazon.

Galaga had an ending?

Pretty much every Compile shmup had a female protagonist. Gun Nac was actually about a witch who conjured up a ship, but this sequence was removed for the American release.
>>
>>3292893
I think that's Galaga 88

I have the PCE version and got 5 of the 8 endings (4 routes on normal mode, 4 routes on hard mode). There is no woman ending...

Baraduke. To the point that even in Namco x CAPCOM, a few characters think Kissy is a boy.

Although I agree, there's one edge that Sonic 2 has: bosses. Most Sonic 3&K bosses have an insane exploit or are just far too gimmicky or easy to outsmart.

Yeah sure, they are for casuals.

Also, I'd say, I don't know if it counts as a double, maybe triple or quadruple jump, but I really like Yoshi's Island, it's Kirby but not broken, the flutter limit and the fact your weight matters when you're falling makes it comfortable and intuitive as fuck to use, yet challenging if used incorrectly with shit timing.

Sega had a commercial tie-in with Ferrari that time so it was a big cash-cow they had to milk.

However the sequel, Outrunners gave you other vehicle and character choices. I remember one of them being a dune buggy but no trucks

I love how the Ferrari looks more like a Beetle at the top.
