Always wanted to play these games as a kid but never got the chance to. That thread reminded me of but Wikipedia is a bitch so I'm not sure of which versions I should get.

So far from what I understood, I should play :

Rampage (1986) - NES version (?)
Rampage World Tour (1997) - PS/N64... or GameBoy Color?
Rampage 2: Universal Tour (1999) - Same question here.
Rampage Through Time (2000) - PS

I don't think I can emulate PS or N64 games with my computer so I'll forget about those. Wasn't there a remake on GBA?

There are some later, English versions that it looks like you could probably get for under $50 of you know how to really stalk ebay. If you're interested in it you probably should get one while you can.

If Scanlines were meant to be part of the visual display of the game, why was pixel art displayed on cartridges without scanlines?
33 posts and 3 images submitted.

>>3108543
Furthermore, if developers created their games with scanlines IN MIND, then why does it seem as if clear pixels are the intent and that scanlines on TVs are just noise/interference over the intended image?

I've done a lot of thinking on this topic, and I'm starting to realize that Atari and Sega killed one another.

In a vain attempt to capture the "32 bit market," Atari was threatened by the Sega Saturn, or by Sega in general, and Sega was worried about the Jaguar, stupidly enough. Maybe wise, in this case, though.

Both companies rushed into production their 32 bit consoles, as upgrades to their previous generation 16-bit or whatever bit consoles. The 7800 and Genesis in these cases.

They were the Atari Panther and the Sega Neptune.

Atari foolishly devoted too many resources to the Panther and then simply cancelled it for the Jaguar, while Sega went ahead and fucked over their Neptune to produce a shitty addon that fucked over Sega's perception, made worse by the Saturn being piece of shit.

Both console manufacturers insured one another's demise in the hardware industry in one way or another because of their failed 32 bit excursions.

If both companies had simply let their 32 bit machines cook, and released them both, and gave their proper 32 bit/64 bit consoles more time to develop, we could've had much stronger proper consoles from Sega and Atari and the Jaguar and the Saturn could have been much more powerful and a much more worthwhile investment.

Instead both were horrifying to program for and used mutilated dual processors that couldn't be harnessed.

You're an idiot. PlayStation was the big bogeyman of that time. Sega and Atari didn't give two shits about each other. Look up exec interviews and try to find then even mention one another.
>>
Jaguar was never a contender, Atari was a forgotten company by the time. If they had the Panther so they don't end up missing the 16bit era, then it might have survived a bit longer, but I doubt it.

Saturn could've lived fine, its problem was that the company managing it was completely retarded. The surprise launch alone was a gigantic blow, and then they gave the machine stupid marketing, and stopped releasing games on it after two years.

If it had a proper launch and the marketing wasn't so stupid, then it could've been a close second to the Playstation and easily survive until 2000. Even in Japan it could've done so - they launched the Dreamcast too early and pissed off many devs with that too.
>>
>>3109210
Not OP and while you're right, it was Sony that delivered the deathblow, OP is correct in that Sega at least lost a lot of momentum and probably money too on 32x. Where I think he's probably wrong is to believe there was direct competition from Atari. Atari had been fucking up for a long time before that and if Sega was even aware of Jaguar they probably would have seen it as a warning since Atari had long proven to be foolish with their console designs.

Time for a Douk thread. I just noticed how Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition had been removed from steam due the publisher having their contract run out. What a shame.
At least now I have Duke 1, 2, 3D(classic), Megaton, and Manhattan Project on my account.

They don't pay seller fees on shipping.

The shipping is so obviously a dumbass way for them to make a huge profit on an item that's only worth like 40 dollars.

It's really fucking irritating.

You can report listings like that and eBay will ban the fuck outta the seller. It's a violation of their policy for sellers to try to circumvent fees by making the shipping costs outrageous.

I've been missing my Xperia play so I'm thinking about picking up a psp go. Tell me a better idea to fill my handheld emulation void.

The PSP go has become surprisingly expensive. If you want to use a PSP to emulate you're better off getting a cheaper 3k model

I have a psp go for that exact purpose, and it is fuckin nice to just pick up and play some PS1/gameboy games. I really enjoy it, I got it a year and a half ago for like 50 bucks though.

There are no emulation general on the catalog so I'll ask my stupid question here :

Are rom files getting modified / altered in any way while playing, putting it in a sd card, an emulator, ... anything? I'm asking because my toaster doesn't have much disk space so I'd like to know whether I should keep the .rar of rom files I download or not.

"And instead of expending precious development resources on portability, BWS is designed exclusively for Microsoft Windows. This allows an optimal experience for the operating system used by the majority of PC users.

Furthermore, for personal, security, and competitive reasons, the source code to BWS will not be released to the public. But you can trust me that my emulator is very accurate. Nobody writes more accurate emulators than me. I may have benefited from public documentation and others' help on the WonderSwan to create BWS, but nobody said I had to share my work in return. So please don't ask for source code. It's mine; all mine. You can't have it."
