>>3078028
Not same region.

Op here is the correct answer.

>>3078069
Meh, region doesn't really matter as long as it's the same game. Remakes and ports might be a bit a lot more contentious, but whatever keeps the thread moving I suppose.

Cool pic btw.

>>3109552
it's all subjective, just go for personal preference and adjust the gate accordingly

>>3109552

Happ sticks are big, clunky and imprecise compared to JP sticks.

What they have over JP sticks is that they're virtually indestructible. This was an absolute requirement in North America because the patrons there abused the cabs constantly.

>>3109594
>>3109552

HAPP sticks are decent, but I wouldn't say they're overly good quality.

Happ is basically the low-end name brand stuff, I have them on my Neo-Geo MVS cab but I think soon I'll upgrade to sanwa or something a bit higher end.

I think the ball tops are a little more "arcade" and function a bit better as well.

Why were there so many of them?

>>3103298
NEC didn't have the R&D for a new console, they stayed in the market as long as they could through multiple revisions and releasing add-ons. Most of the PC Engine profit came from selling multi-taps and controller extension cords.

>>3100248
I don't know how to save the animals. There's a lot to know about Super Metroid before one truly masters it.

>>3100290
It's a pretty easy alternate route you have to take during the final escape sequence. There's no real benefit or penalty either way unless you're rubbish at the jumps during the vertical portion and can't spare the time.

>>3100248

I also notice it doesn't really confirm whether you got it right or not aside from some subtle shit. And even if you get it perfect it can still sound a little off.

YOU GOTTA BELIEVE.

>>3115729
yeah in the tas it almost never sounds right even though it's perfectly precise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbYdRZ8FiuA

i think you have to do it after the head goes after the button, not during?

>implying a Suganami game is one of the worst

Way to fail at your own bait OP. Besides, there's other Treasure games that trigger people a lot more, like Ikaruga.

Treasure's actual worst (in terms of /vr/-era Treasure) is probably Rakugaki Showtime, but even that one is still somewhat fun to play.
Mischief Makers is not their best, but it's up there.

SHAKE SHAKE

sonic cd sure, if you like sonic. chaotix nah

Just emulate them both, it's worth it for the music and production values alone.

>>3113905
Sonic CD is the best Sonic game ever made.

I disliked using the analog to swing the net, pointing a direction and pressing a button will always feel more intuitive to me.

>>3113645
I wouldn't really call the controls innovative so much as kind of obtuse. Rotating the control stick to spin your propellor or swing your sword was a pain the ass, for instance. Sure, it was cool to be able to control a toy car and run at the same time, but for every moment the control gimmicks worked there were dozens where it fell apart. All said, however, Ape Escape is a very fun and solid game and I love to replay it every couple of years

>>3113651
This. It makes more sense in the context of games like Gunstar Heroes and Smash TV where you NEED to have independent aiming from movement, but with a platformer like this you'll almost never find yourself needing to swing in a direction other than the one you're facing.

>>3113393
It's okay. The edgelords on here will tell you otherwise but it's not a bad play

>>3113393
I liked it. I never beat it though. I enjoyed the first one more.

>>3113393
It's above average but not great by any stretch of the imagination.

>>3113136
only if you use save states.

>>3113136
only if you like the game and it gives you a sense of accomplishment

Yes. Most of the time the game's difficulty is tuned around the idea of getting the 1cc. Also often makes you actually care about scoring since you need those extends. Not sure why other anons are shitposting in this thread, OP.

>>3112565
>was this overshadowed by phantasy star 1
well yeah obviously but Miracle Warriors was still better than Final Fantasy

>>3112565

Can't stand the game. Too much grinding and not enough variety.

>>3112579
At least with Final Fantasy you can pick classes. Gives it a little more depth.

I still haven't managed to get the PC98 version running.
I can't create a save disk. The readme said to hold COPY during bootup but I haven't managed to get that to work with an emulator.

There's nothing to worry about. Just get yourself a copy of Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch: Make My Video for unlimited gaming enjoyment.

>>3112472
Not an expert on this, but from what I've heard the Model 1 is more prone to breaking since it has more moving parts. Namely the belt and the rest of the tray assembly. Which would probably be the reason they switched to a top-load design for the Model 2.

>>3112535
If it's still working is there anyway to maintain it or make sure that doesn't happen? Or do you just have to lightly use it and not often?

Taracco is one of my favourite maps in the game.

I'd say start with just placing down housing, wells, engineers, prefects and temples, then get your exports going, especially marble. After the earthquake has triggered, farm for wheat, it grows twice as fast as other foodstuffs. Do not feed your people anything other than food.

Set taxes to 0 and set wages to 32 (2 more than Rome) and you'll never have mood problems. Exports in Taracco will give you more than enough money.

3MB, 1920x1080px

Here's a really basic start. Housing, engineer post, marble quarries for export, temples to all gods, doctor clinic. That's all you need to start with. Get some money on the go from exports then start seeing about farming that land.

Thanks anon, i beat it with some luck and your tips. Now im on miletus. What a bitch. I have an idea on what to do there though, unless you have more tips.

>>3110626
Tips for miletus? Do invaders spawn at the same place every time? Is there such a thing as too many ships?
