I don't know where else to go, and my options are running out fast. About 72 hours ago, my car stolen, and everything I own was in it. Clothes, video games, my desktop pc, trophies, everything. Even my birth certificate, W-2, registration, and insurance info were in it. Atlanta police didn't seem optimistic about my chances of finding it when I filed a report, so I'm basically screwed.
Some things to look out for are
-White 2016 Honda CR-V
-w/ a temporary license plate from Texas
-Roof rails (not shown in pic, had installed after purchase)
-Aluminum wheels
All I have left is about a week's worth of clothes. This is especially miserable for me because I had my N64, 5 controllers, and about 30 N64 games (including a gold cart copy of Ocarina of Time) in the car along with all three DKC games and an SNES arcade stick. I basically lost everything I own.
If anybody knows anything or finds out anything, I can be found at

/vr/, let's talk hipsters. They seem to be the great boogeymen of our board. They're blamed for being part of the driving force behind the retro bubble. They're accused to being the worst kind of game collector - who buys a game only to put it forever on a shelf. They'll call all-time beloved favorites like Final Fantasy 7, Mario 3, or Chrono Trigger shit just to pump up their hipster cred. But for me personally, a boogeyman is all they are.
Do any of you personally know hipster gamers? Are you just acquaintances or are you close friends with any of them?Perhaps you're a hipster gamer yourself?Tell us your experiences with these elusive beasts.
This thread will probably double as a general rage thread.

So is this game supposed to have a strong emotional story? Because I'm at the third dungeon and so far it isn't hitting me yet.

Stage isn't that bad, because you get unlimited tries on that very spot. The game never makes you restart the whole stage over.
Tough stages that make you backtrack are the most frustrating.

I wonder if they were saying that in 1980 about the Atari 2600.
Regarding the recently discovered mass collection of games, including six sealed copies of Stadium Events posted on NintendoAge: Taking into consideration the current and historical price for this game, current and historical prices for NES games, the current known sealed/copies of Stadium Events, I've been punching some numbers into my calculator, and I've estimated that the projected price of these games once all of them are sold are around approximately 16-21,000 USD, compared to the current price of 34-39,000 USD. What does /vr/ make of these prices, or the collection in general? Of course, this topic is mostly speculation for hardcore collectors, so don't take all of it too seriously. Things may change at any time.

If you're buying shit like stadium events you're not hardcore. You're a fucking idiot.
Buying horrible games doesn't make you a collector.

I love shit like this. These games aren't that old. We are still in the prime time of troves of things being found and unloaded into the market.

I have to hand it to the Genesis version.
SNES one isn't bad, it's just a tad generic and suffers from not having actual Disney animators helping with the sprites.

Is there a preferred version of the PS1 to have? I've heard that there are notable differences in old and new models. For example, better sound quality on old models with RCA outputs.

Sound quality is the same on all models. Early models are prone to skipping. That's it.

No difference in image quality.

>>3157319
Sound quality is constant on all, you must be thinking of the marginally better composite on original RCA model ps1's. Nothing worth buying specifically for.

I've read that quite a number of people swear by these being far better than the PS1 remakes. Any particular reasons why? I have played each of the SCD versions in the distant past but didn't manage to hang onto them, so memory is very fuzzy outside of them having random battles.
Also Lunar thread?

Akshully it's only the second game that's clearly superior on the sega cd. The first game is fine, they only messed up the soundtrack that sounds really wimpy and lame on the PS1 for some reason.

Yeah that's a cool thing they added on the ps1, you can see and avoid enemies on the map.

Look at that field effect.
White elements are 2x stronger than they should be.
If you spam black elements you can reduce them to 0.5x of the original.
You could reduce those 618 damage to 154 if you knew what you're doing.
