I see no problem with clone consoles if they're cheap but you can get a real SNES for that much.

>>3249373
I have one of these things, though branded under Columbus Circle.
They play alright, just some small music distortions that I'm not sure is due to a slightly shoddy composite cable or the thing itself, which I'm leaning on the latter.
The controllers suck ass though, get an actual one instead if you wanna get this.

I have a retro duo I paid $6 for at a thrift store. It's okay but $48 is fucking retarded and that's aliexpress there should definitely be cheaper ones

It was a shameless Akita ripoff, but I don't remember psychic powers being this prevalent in a video game up to its release. I used to love shorting and just popping doctors heads, it was so satisfying. Like popping juicy pimples.

Agreed. Its almost universally disliked on both /v/ and /vr/ but I think its great. I still prefer 2 and 3 over it, but for a one-time offshoot with that amazing 90s dreamcast charm it was fucking baller.
I'd even go as far to say its the comfiest RE game to replay.

>As these enhancements became more commonplace on the SNES, the stock of existing Genesis games began to look outdated in comparison. Sega began work on an enhancement chip to compete with the Super FX, resulting in the Sega Virtua Processor. This chip enables the Genesis to render polygons in real time and provides an "Axis Transformation" unit that handles scaling and rotation. Virtua Racing, the only game released with this chip, runs at a significantly higher and more stable frame rate than similar games on the SNES. The chip was expensive to produce, and increased the cost of the games that used it. At US$100, Virtua Racing is the most expensive Genesis cartridge ever produced. Two other games, Virtua Fighter and Daytona USA, were planned for the SVP chip, but were instead moved into the Saturn's launch line-up.[121] There were plans to sell the SVP chip as a separate upgrade module for the Genesis,[122][123] but this module was never released.
How does it feel knowing they planned on porting DAYTONA and VIRTUA FIGHTER to Genesis?

OP, I'd hold onto them for a couple more years. Assuming you came here for advice because you aren't too savvy of retro gaming, we are currently in a weird time. Systems costs have risen about 30% in the last 1-2 years. It's kind of crazy. If you hold out for a year or 2 I could see you getting a pretty penny for all this stuff.

Holy fuckballs guys, I couldn't believe it. The place normally checks ebay to find out how much things are worth. I bet they couldn't find any past auctions so just priced it like it was an normal Intellivision.

I'm feeling nostalgic. I want to have a conversation with old DOS game developers. Tell me your stories.
I was just recalling a time where this idiot on a BBS was arguing with me that Turbo Pascal was a bad language. He boldly claimed that it couldn't do anything low-level and that it was impossible to achieve performance code from it. He said you couldn't even do graphics without including Borland's graphics libraries, and that anything you made with it was huge.
I developed a demo in half an hour that used TP's embedded assembly code functionality for all video functions, from handling the interrupts to setup video mode, to assembly loops for rapid blitting. The rest of the code was just generic Turbo Pascal. It smoothly panned tiles around the screen in all four directions which spelled out "Turbo Pascal Is Great" and had poorly drawn fireworks going off. The EXE was less than 64KB.
When I uploaded it to the files section, he said everything from it not being written in Turbo Pascal at all to me not writing it in the first place. But he was fucking raging. It's like Turbo Pascal killed his mother. I'll never understand that.
The real twist is that this is what inevitably got me interested in the demoscene.

you proved him right. All the performance-relevant and low level bits, the vast majority of what your program was doing, were not in TP

In the Famicom version of Sunsoft's Batman, music from stage 1 and 2 are swapped.
It was a bit mind blowing for me to learn that Streets of Desolation, one of the greatest stage 1 themes ever, was originally used in stage 2.

I mean, yeah, compared to the arcade version, it's very bad.. but compared to botched ports of the arcade version in other games (ex: Pac-Man World 2)
It's just not the original, so everyone hates it?

There were more bad than good ports of Pac-Man, something I'll never understand. How can you fuck up a game this simple?
>>
It's not bad per se, it's just that it was the much hyped home port to the biggest game of the day, and produced on an extremely tight schedule. It was much further distanced from the original game than the last big port, Space Invaders.
>>
There are a lot of bad arcade ports, but the Atari 7800 seemed to have more than most.

No, because taste is subjective, and the more games you have, the more likely it is that some of those will be a particular person's "quality."
