Because the NES doesn't have a clock.

What games that have slowdown make you ask this question?
>>3234517
Not op but I'm pretty sure op posted a good example.
Anyone know if the Super Famicom Fire Emblem Games are software region locked or if i can just play them on my snes using a converter
I'd love to import them
>>3234261
If it's a NTSC SNES it'll play absolutely fine. The only thing is the carts are different shapes so you have to physically remove the tabs from the SNES so it'll fit.
If it's a PAL SNES there is a lockout chip on the cart will prevent the game from running unless you have some workaround for that. Console mod is the best way to go, with SuperCIC being god-tier which also fixes the frame rate mismatch.

Its a PAL snes but i have a converter to play NTSC games on the thing
One like pic related
Would that do the trick?

> with SuperCIC being god-tier which also fixes the frame rate mismatch.
How does it fix that exactly? Does it make a NTSC game run on 50 frames per second on a PAL SNES?
Not a /vr/ regular so forgive me if the thread doesn't belong here or if some sort of general for this type of stuff exists (though I checked the catalog and didn't find anything).
I'm looking for a retro game that I used to play in my childhood.
It was on Windows in the 98 era (I think).
the game was settled around some sort of Battle League in which different teams (some of them would use Dragons, other zeppelins etc.) would fight in air battles in arenas.
I think the name was something along the lines of "Heroes of the sky" - but I could be totally wrong.
I think that's Panzer dragoon.
>>3234057
Thank you for your input but it's sadly not.
The gameplay was basically like an Arena shooter just with added flying.
As I said before there were different groups you could join that would use different flying mounts..
bump for OP and Saddam.
can we agree nostalgia googles besides gaming peaked around PS1 era consoles and that it's been downhill since then?
Hell, It's a shame games from the SNES and PSX era still blows away in terms of GAMEPLAY modern games.
We're talking about gameplay, not story, nor graphics, nor anything else.
>>3233537
Is this in part not because we simply had tried everything even remotely obvious and established norms like what made an "action RPG" an action RPG and what made a "metroidvania" a metroidvania, etc?
>>3233537
Nope.
There is no "peak" It's not like you have to play the shit when it comes out then in a month it fades to obscurity.
The good games are still good, the bad games are still bad. Theres been an influx of cinematic experiences and pandering to the really casual crowd and less emphasis on really core mechanics but there have been games that do try and go back and give a more robust gameplay experience, and prove there is still a market for it. The success of Dark Souls series pretty much proves that people are ok with a non-handholdy, kind of bullshitty game because it's fun and different.

>games today don't suck
>proceed to give an example of a modern game that tries to be a NES dungeon crawler with modern graphics
>still accept there's a less enfasis on core gameplay and more on muh story BS
Anyone buying one of these? I'm old and I think this is pretty cool, but I also wonder if I could just build this myself? Is this think any good from a technical perspective?

What's the most fun NES game?
this bad boy right here
For me, Kirby's Adventure. I always have a grin while playing that game.
skate or die
Let's talk about AG racers like Wipeout and F-Zero!
To anyone interested, some dev is making a free open-source clone of the PSX Wipeout games called BallisticNG. It's pretty fun and is making fast progress, got Greenlight too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAKXgpGXgq8
>>3232491
>BallisticNG
Does it have analog controls? Does it support DS3 or DS4? Usually free world suck when it's about controller support.
>>3234064
Works fine for me. You already use MotionInJoy or SCPToolkit to use your PS controller with other games, right?
Works just fine with that.
>>3234127
I have Linux, not Windows.

So I recently bought a PAL snes and i'm thinking about buying one of these things and importing a few games from japan besides some PAL games
How good do these things work?
Does anyone know if they support the Super Famicom Fire Emblem games?
Anyone?
anyone thats willing to help?
>>3232241
They work for most games, but there are a few that don't work because of software region-locking.
Here's a list of games that won't work

This seller is a good example of someone who is totally wrecking the retro gaming market and driving up prices for imaginary costs.
She charges over 100 extra dollars to replace the Sega CD Model 1 Drive Belts. Which cost 3.95
http://console5.com/store/parts/belts.html
It's insane people are getting away with this. The belts take 15 seconds to install and there are 100 videos on Youtube.
The real things that go bad in these Model 1 Sega CD's are the capacitors, and those can be recapped by someone for like the price of the caps plus 25-50 bucks labor.
>>3231892
Most people who will replace the caps for 50 bucks will also throw in a new drive belt for free.
I actually bypassed the fuse that usually blows the other day. I know it's dangerous to bypass and not replace but let's be real who connects systems straight into the wall nowadays?
Although I will definitely replace it if I ever sell it
>>3231892
>totally wrecking the retro gaming market
In what way? No one is being forced to buy from him, don't like it don't give him money. It's a free market.
What the title says.
Was it orange to reduce burn in?
I've never used a Windows 9x PC that didn't automatically shut off.
>>3231518
The "It's now safe to turn off your computer" screen was there for older PCs with an AT-type power supply. Most PCs made after Windows 95 came out had ATX power supplies with auto shutoff. XP still has this feature and I think Vista was the first version of Windows that no longer supports AT power supplies.
Why were gamesharks such unreliable pieces of shit?
were they
>>3231298
yeah, n64 gamesharks were terribly built hardware, so they fail and brick themselves very frequently, but their actual function is insanely cool and gives you a lot of room for creativity, like making your own codes.
like all this shit the speedrunning community came up with:
https://sites.google.com/site/sm64gameshark/
>>3231294
Are we talking specifically about N64 ones, because my PS1 and PS2 gamesharks were fuckin aces.
Is it really that bad?
Why don't you just play it?
Why not just play the thing yourself?
Play spiderman its actually bretty gud
