Definitely not that.
In a thread on I think /v/ someone spoke highly of a visual novel called Yu-No that had a crazy sci-fi plot or something. So I decided to try playing it, so I looked up some info and apparently it is basically a porn game. Did I get trolled or does it have a good story? Like maybe they wanted to make a game with a good story but they needed to include porn for the sales. Or am I taking the first step down the deep, dark rabbit hole of "I play porn games for the story"?
Okay you have to understand that for a VN (virtual novel) to succeed in Japan especially during the 90s it almost had to have adult content because the fappers were the ones keeping the doors unlocked and the lights on, know what I mean? There were developers who really wanted to make their VNs good games and Yu-No is probably the best example of this. There's some sex stuff at the very beginning and then subsequent adult sequences are SO far separated that you will likely forget you're playing an "adult" game before you see another one. These sort of games focus intensely on the relationships the protagonist forms so sex scenes feel sort of natural like a payoff for all the investment. My personal opinion on how healthy that aspect of these games really is psychologically but Yu-No is definitely a game with good mechanics and a good narrative and a good choice for a first VN unless you don't want to invest that much time in which case try Snatcher. It has much less adult content (none on Sega CD) and it's also really good but nowhere near as complex.

You basically hit the nail on the head. It hooks the player with a bunch of sexy ladies and then you get drawn in to the interesting story. Eventually, the sex becomes an afterthought. It's also got a pretty neat gameplay system that more or less revolutionized the VN scene.
Jesus Christ, how clueless can people be?

If you think something is a newsworthy, backlink to this post as well. Let's make proper OPs since now on together!
Can I be first?
The only boxes I have left. Wish I would've kept the rest.
>>3235541
Are you proposing a cardboard collection thread, OP? I'm willing, I just want your intentions made clear first.
>>3235541
>Majoras Mask
>19.99
>Unopened Majoras Mask goes for like 175 now
fuuuuck
>>3235550
Sure why not. I dont want it turn into a smug collectors thread though.
Hey /vr/
Do any of you own the Virtual Boy? I know not many people talk about it here. I can't find a comfortable way to play the damn thing so I'm trying to make my own Lamp-O-Tron.
Any of you do any do it yourself stuff or have any ideas how I could go about making this?
http://www.planetvb.com/modules/workshop/?04
This seems to explain it but I suck so much at making shit I can't wrap my head around it.
>>3235389
Looks like a lamp desk with a clamp, and he just screwed in to the base of the Virtual Boy stand.
>>3235389
Shit, they should've released that as an upgrade.
Good luck, /vr/.
Oh it's that soccer thing. What time should I tune it for our match?
>>3234732
It's on now, 1-1 at the moment.
Nice, on to face /r9k/ in the semi-finals.
Just finished this trilogy and am now jacked as fuck for more twich sidescrolling action. Which of these three games should I get first to continue the hype?
>Strider (Genesis)
>Shadow of the Ninja (NES)
>Battletoads (NES)
>>3234231
Run Saber (SNES)
Short but fun imo
Ghosts n Goblins
ghouls n ghosts, but the arcade version
What draws you to the retro consoles?
Most games made nowadays are shitty and reliant on generic, boring gameplay.
>>3232925
360 won't be retro because the gameplay is fundamentally the same as all modern games. Maybe in 30 years when everything is VR any form of gaming on a 2D display will be "retro", but that'd be more from a technology standpoint than gameplay standpoint.
>>3232868
>What draws you to the retro consoles?
Arcade games. So pre 6th generation.
Can we talk about classic Warcraft lore? The movie is going to fail isn't it? I mean full blown flop.
As someone who'd first "real" PC game was Warcraft 2 and played that game everyday after school as soon as I saw that Medivh is suppose to be in his 20's in the movie and then heard the dubstep and comedy quips I lost any interest in seeing it.
>He still doesn't assume video game movies will be shit
There was a brief sweet spot there in the mid 2000s but that was it.
>>3232745
Doom?
>>3233112
I'm surprised how roundly the Doom movie was panned, it has fuck all to do with Doom but as an Aliens pastiche it's extremely entertaining flick with some great camp performances.
>needing anybody else but soldiers
>2005
Hey, /vr/. A family member recently gave me a huge CD-case filled with retro games (mostly shovelware unfortunately). A bunch of them are for Windows 98 and 95, which wont work on Windows 10.
Pic related, this is one of the games I want to play, but can't because it's only for Windows 98-95. Any way to get this running on like VMWare or something?
>Windows 10
I'm sorry
>>3232607
It wouldn't work when I had windows 7 either, so..
Install Windows 98 within dosbox
I feel like I'm obsessed with NES for a long time. I never owned it, so I can't have any nostalgic feelings about it.
It's truly a great console full of awesome games and arcade ports and I feel like it's the greatest console of all tome.
Any thoughts?
>>3232181
It's one of the greatest.
Play it!
Download an NES emulator and play the games. You're missing out.
>>3232209
I do play, how I could say such things without experiencing on my own?

Old 3x3 I made for a thread once. I should probably update it and swap Journey to Silius for Mitsume ga tooru, maybe.
Also, props for Antartic Adventure, Star Force and Circus Charlie. True 8-bit nostalgia right there.

How do you know? Points?
About to buy a SEGA Saturn at a retro game store when it ships in tomorrow.
What are some must have games for it?
Im not sure. I had one that my crackhead stepdad sold.
I had Shining in the Darkness, and it was kewl. Shining Force 3 was something I wanted. According to Saturnfags Arcade games, and shumps are the bread and butter of the console.
>>3228798
Not an expert on Saturn by any means but I know that Fighters Megamix and Nights into Dreams are absolutely essential.
an action replay cart
So I'm usually a fa/tg/uy, but I was curious on /vr/s opinion of picture related for emulation
>NES styled
>PlayStation layout
>SNES shape
Its like they are trying to piss people off
>horrible analog stick placement
>uncomfortable shape
looks painful as fuck. Just get a SNES USB controller or an F310
