How did one go about actually purchasing a Neo Geo AES and games back in the early 90s outside of Japan? Most sales must have been through import stores and such, right? It's not like Toys R Us would have had a big selection of AES carts to choose from.

Specialty stores and mail order most likely.
>>
>>3194452
It must have been. I've always wondered about this because I grew up in a small town and the Neo Geo AES was always this nebulous, mythical console that I only saw in my video game mags. I'd imagine specialty stores like EB only sold it at their locations in big markets like New York, L.A., etc.

I have driven past that sega sign on 101 in SF since I was a kid. Zynga and Sega where located right next to each other. Sega's logo is still up on one building. I guess Zynga bought their old building? Zynga is not doing well right now either. I always wanted to go inside. Now they moved to LA which is probably better since SF is a safe space hipster war zone now.

3dfx vs Direct3D vs OpenGL

Which one is better? Are early 3dfx games better than D3D? At what point in time has D3D superseded it? When given the choice, which one you choose?

What good submarine games are worth investing time in? I don't mind the "boring" ones where you have to do a ton of planning to play correctly.

I just played a bit of this Silent Service game. It was primitive but now I realize that there are submarine games around. What else is there worth playing?

My mother's husband used to play Aces of the Deep back in the DOS days. It's one of those "games only you played" so I don't know what the word on the street is. Anyway check it out.

39KB, 1024x768px
So I just beat Zelda II. I expected it to be ball-bustingly GnG hard, but it really wasn't that bad. 33 gameovers, I think. I had a great time while playing it, I think it's my favorite Zelda game now. The combat was fun and the game overall felt fresh.

Also, I'm proud to say I beat Shadow Link or Dark Link or whatever the legitimate way(not the pussy way of being against the left wall and thrusting). There is a trick to it, I'll give you a hint.

Think about what portion of the triforce you are supposed to be receiving

Nice blog faggot

Nah you're okay. Good for you that you got yourself into 2D platforming ARPGs. They're a good and underappreciated genre. Hit up Faxanadu next then if you can handle that report back.

>>3191461
Faxanadu was pretty easy actually.

Battle of Olympus would be an up in difficulty I'd say. As long as you don't read walkthroughs.

>Nah you're okay. Good for you that you got yourself into 2D platforming ARPGs. They're a good and underappreciated genre. Hit up Faxanadu next then if you can handle that report back.

Yeah, I've seen some Faxanadu stuff and thought it looked cool. I've got some other games I want to play but that's pretty high on my backlog. I haven't played Popful Mail and that looks like it'd be really up my ally so I'll probably play that first and then get around to Faxanadu.
