PC games have always looked better than console games.

>>3218983
I guess the late 90's or early 00's

PC games have always "looked better".


If you mean surpassed consoles completely then in the 2000s with 6th generation. Prior consoles had an edge in some form or another. Scrolling, launch hardware capability to present PC hardware, etc.

>Was Sega just a one-hit-wonder?
Ya that whole like nearly 80 years of making arcade games. Ya you modern gamer kids wouldn't know about that. To be fair I thought they only went back to the 80s maybe late 70s until I learned about their origins in the 2000s.

They made a lot of great games, the console market is tough to crack though.

>Gradius when firing up close with options also applies.

So.... Any game with a spread shot type? There's an absolute TON of those.

>>3237708
Name some good ones. Usually the spread shot isn't even the strongest weapon.

Contra NES.

Are your pads worn or is the silicone torn?
A decent temporary fix is rubbing graphite on the pads...but I'm guessing you want them 100%?
You could try finding a controller with good buttons in bad shape or otherwise broken, salvaging the parts you need.
I'm sort of in the same boat on a dreamcast controller...

>>3236848
Same my snes controller has a worn out dpad and I'm looking for high quality replacement pads, anyone know where to find the best?

Dunno about SNES controllers, but you can fix a NES controller by salvaging an N64 controller.

Many local game stores do it with professional machines, don't bother with those cheap disk resurfacers. My local /vr/ store offers it for $3 a pop.

May as well ask him to buy a blender. At least then.he could make himself some protein shakes after shredding his discs beyond use.

are you new to the entire site or something, you can fucking delete posts you know

No because it's not a pre-2000 game.

>>3237119
learn to sage mang, you've just bumped a 12 hour old non vr thread to the first page

Damn, that color scheme Civ3 is as 2000s as it gets when you compare it to the more watery 90s palette of Civ2.

Yeah, the VMU is a great item. It was one of the best ideas for the Dreamcast. They should have been a little more powerful, though.

I thought it was great. I don't think it was really used to it's fullest but I suppose that's better than forcing it's gimmick on developers.

There's a handy guide here:

There's no perfect palette. Here are my two favorites:

>Sony CXA2025AS (Consumer).

This one is derived from an actual NTSC decoder from Sony televisions. This is probably the most accurate, in that it's what a lot of people in 80's Japan would have used or seen.

>Rock Man 9

Palette from RM9. As close to an official palette by Capcom as you can get. In practice, it's very similar to the Consumer palette.

A good game to test palettes on is Castlevania 1 level 2. The room is often garish purple bricks in most palettes. But Consumer renders them as red. The devs used a TV to test that gave red bricks.

Dude, for NES? Check out Super Dodge Ball. We had a lot of fun playing it when we were younger..... I suppose it might be a little different now but I recall having hours of fun against each other.

Just on top of mind:
Warlords, Video Olympics.
Atari 2600 is the greatest console to plug and play.

How do you know it's not an ARM processor running emulators?

>>3234612
Youre probably right since one of the built in games is super mario world

I just finished my first 60 mile race ... ever. Qualified 7th, came in 4th. Feels like a victory though. I love this game

>>3234569
got lucky because of two yellows, both not caused by me. They pushed the projected mileage, so I could skip refueling.

Is an car a athlete?
