wtf

Other than that, everyone who isn't a retard knows that no LCD ever could beat a High-End CRT, only an OLED can match it.
>>
>>3217540
oled? why?
>>
Because it hides all the scaling errors you normally get when you try to display emulators at 640x480. At such wide resolutions, the scaling errors are not visible because they're too small for the CRT to show.

"Enduro" is a symbolic journey through life via the media of a race. The results are insignificant and what really counts is competing. Of particular importance are the lessons to be learned concerning one's self from the various encounters you experience along the way. There is no victor or loser in this test of endurance. The only thing that really matters is that you make a commitment to begin the long and trying trek. This game is then dedicated to all of the "life riders" who have started out on the solitary trip to find their own individual limits. Last, but not least, may we sincerely congratulate you on a perfect run.

Serious question, will the prices of Japanese games and consoles ever reach the level of bullfuckery that Western systems have?

Should I start collecting them now?

yes, since the japanese games are supposed to be returned (sold back) to the japanese.

Its the gaijins who buy games and drive uo the prices.

Has anyone here had experience with custom cartridge orders from GameReproductions before? I really want a copy of colorized Metroid 2 for the Gameboy Color and the ones on Etsy look like shit (pic related), both in the quality of the cartridge and label, and the actual colorization romhack that they chose. I have a superior color romhack (which has been tested on actual hardware) that I want to put in an authentic black Nintendo GBC cartridge with period-accurate label art.

GameReproductions is the only service I know of that does Gameboy custom orders, however their website doesn't actually say how much custom orders cost, and you have to email them for a quote. I was wondering if anyone here has dealt with them before and can say how reasonable / unreasonable their costs are, or if there is a better service for custom Gameboy carts that I should know about.

lets use this thread to try to help other anons out on a game we played back in the day but cant remember the games name. i'll start

ps1 game
it was like twisted metal but this game took place underwater/the ocean with submarines instead of cars

ps1 game
i remember the intro being some kid living on a floating island with his grandpa(?) they had to use some gems to break off pieces of the land or the place would fall. in this one cut sense they are breaking off a part of the land but the boy jumps in the land falling off to save some baby birds

ps1 game
i only remember the gameplay being some man with a staff and he fights some skeletons and beasts. the skeletons wore robes and i think they were on fire

That perfectly describes Monkey Hero if you replace man with monkey.

Anyway, I remember playing a game either for SNES or Genesis (I'm not sure which) that you controlled a red oval character (like a strawberry or really just a ball) and he wore sunglasses. That's all I really remember about it, I only played it once I think.

You are referring to critical depth, great game made BY the twisted metal people. I would love to see this game remade the way twisted metal was. Using the shield, L1+R1 combo shots and the pod abilities was CRUCIAL to gettin' gud at this game. Not to mention you can find this game complete for under $10.

yes, this is exactly what that is. It's proper Texture Perspective correction.

there a before / after to better grasp what's changed? it's been a while since i've played ps1, but all these codenames in the youtube titles have me interested

What games are now virtually unplayable that you still have a soft spot for because you enjoyed them so much as a kid?

> Toshinden
I've never played 3 and 4 but the first two I played to death as a kid on ps1. I fired up Toshinden 2 on MAME the other day (it had an arcade release by Capcom) and it's almost unplayable.

Uh I still like it. It's less clunky than Tekken 2 and Soul Edge but nowhere close Tekken 3 or Bloody Roar.

Toshindens 3 and 4 didn't change much. They're not as clunky as 1 or 2, but there's still noticeable lag between inputting a move and it coming out.

>>3198018
Except for the huge moon jump, I don't find Tekken 2 to be clunky at all. Soul Edge, on the other hand...

An obscure game that I liked was "for the frog the bell tolls." A first party Nintendo games made quite early in the gameboy's lifevbut interesting. The gameplay is quite weird and not for everyone but I found it super charming. You will need an english translation patch fpr this game.

Another game I recommend is trip world by sunsoft. I would compare it to mr.gimmick but it's quite different. Very technically impressive game.

So I'm moving and am looking to get rid of most everything I own, including a slew of older games, mostly ps1 rpgs. I imagine most of them won't increase in value that much from where they're at now.

Just wondering if there was a Kelley Blue Book but for games, other than just googling and checking the price/condition ratio on ebay and amazon.

And speaking of that, what's the best place to sell? Kinda afraid the listing will just sit there forever.

Here, bro! Slap up a new Buy/Sell/Trade thread and let your fellow /vr/others get first pick.
>>
>>3220182
There is no good place to sell.

People on the /bst/ here want a fucking deal, like the money grubbing jews they are.

People on craigslist will flake constantly and harass you with endless emails over minute details of your stuff.

eBay BIN's will sit forever if you've priced it "competitively" since no one wants to play reseller prices.

eBay auctions run the very real risk of getting 5-10 dollars for stuff going for 40-50.

Local stores will give you shit return then mark it up to eBay or more.


You can't win. If you have anything interesting I'd be interested in looking, you can just post stuff you're interested in selling in this thread or make a /bst/
>>
>>3220182
Don't sell. You'll regret it later and want to kill yourself.

If you're already suicidal, if you want to make the most money in the least amount of time, use ebay auctions and start very low.
Since eBay takes 10% of all your sales, another way to do this is to look for a mom and pop store that buys/sells. They usually know the value of these games and will give you a good price.

If you have all the time in the world, put it at Buy It Now for a high price and let it sit there.
