Prepare yourself /vr/trooper, for you are about to enter the realm of digital retro gaming kombat!
Choose your equipment according to the template. Please keep gear /vr/ related and please refrain from choosing generic items like 'a katana' or 'a steel helmet'. A good example would be 'Masamune from FFVII' and 'Dragon Helm from FFIV'.
You can fill in the boxes with art or just text, whatever you feel comfortable with.
Have fun and let the kombat begin!

Contributing with my setup:
"High Speed Low Drag Operator".
Godly Plate Of The Whale for my plate armor. The Bunny Hood from Majora's Mask for speed and tacticool maneuvers. Aya's M4A1 from Parasite Eve 2 with the javelin laser attachment for close to mid range precision and mag-dumps. The Grandfather great sword to unzip and unsheathe as my melee weapon, go to town cutting down foes with bonus to hit. And finally the ribbon from FFVII as an obvious choice for protection from negative status effects.

I'm just a generic mage with the Gran Grimoire from tactics advance entering the fray.
My accessory 1 is an elixir, resized it too small in gimp but whatever.

When did you go retro, /vr/?
I mean, at what point in your life did you decide to start playing old games again?
For me it was during 5th gen, around 1997 or so. I had N64, Saturn and PS1, as well as a PC, so I had mostly forgotten about the previous gen games and didn't use my SNES and Genesis anymore, I think the last time I used my SNES back then was in 1996 when DKC3 came out and then went back to play new stuff.
But sometime in 1997 I got the urge to play not 4th gen, but 3rd gen (well, just Famicom, or "Family Game" as it was known in my country). So I went ahead and bought myself a Famiclone with a multicart since my old famiclone was either lost or my mom gave it to charity.
I still remember the guy at the game stop (where I was regular) told me "dude, you really want one of these old consoles? you've got all the new systems, why the hell do you want to play old games?".
My friends told me the same thing.
Fuck it, I remember going back home, plugging that in and playing all my childhood favorites again, felt amazing, first time I felt nostalgia playing games I think.
I didn't go back to 4th gen until maybe 2002.
I never really stopped playing 5th gen I think, even when 6th gen was already stablished I still played my 5th gen systems occasionally alternating with the GC, DC and PS2.
So how about you? at what moment did you stopped caring only about the latest systems and went back to old stuff?

When modern games killed video games with the 6th generation and later.
I went back and started with a bunch of old PC games at first. Later in 2007-8 I started with consoles again.

Also, I don't care if a game is retro or not. I like playing games.

Whilst clearing some stuff out of my Mrs parent's house we stumbled across a Spectrum with about 40 games. Implying it works, what is it worth? What should I be aware of when selling it?

Wow nice find brother!
Even a used but good condition spectrum can still fetch thousands of dollars on a good day!
Even rare good condition tapes are worth a fue hundred each as tape rot has killed most of the games :(

Cute games. Princess Honey is CUTE
Why don't they make games like this anymore? Survival horrors that rely on exploration and puzzle solving rather than sp00py corridors and jomp scares. It's why I wasn't too excited for Silent Hills anyway.

Which version is the best one to get? Also, which version offers the best selection of games that aren't too text heavy?
I'm thinking of picking one up soon and any information would help me with my decision.
Thanks.

Is Crystal the color version or are they entirely separate? Are games backwards compatible with each system?

Why is OpenTTD dying?
Over the course of 6 years i noticed slow decreas ein the amount of people playing this game.
Less and less public servers, mostly empty now.
Is this precious gem slowly subsiding into the abyss?
It's hard for me to believe that only like 60 people on earth play at the same time.

Well, I had no opinion on JJ Squakers. But now after just playing it, its pretty fucking rad.
A bit on the retarded hard side though, or maybe I'm just bad.
Easily one of the weirder arcade games

You just don't like it, and /vr/ isn't one person or a general consensus. At least you gave it a try
>>
>>3088073
This was one of the games I got with my Playstation when I was a kid. I remember liking it back then, but that was probably because it was the first 3D platformer I ever played. After going back and playing it again recently, I can agree that it is not a good game. Whoever reccomended it to you probably doesn't have the ability to seperate their nostalgia from their objective judgement (pretty common around here). There's no reason to be playing this when you could be playing Spyro or Crash or Ape Escape.
>>
>>3088073
>You guys are so full of shit
Someone finally gets it. When the evaluated material is so heavy on nostalgia, you can't just trust what people talk about it, you ought to try it before and take your own conclusions.
(Personally I think Croc is OK. Not any masterpiece but a way better than most of the shit we got in that generation. But then again, who am I to say? Better play it for yourself before listening to a random jackass on an anonymous board.)

There are some reports that this mod actually has a virus in it but might just be a false positive. Unfortunately it looks like it's the only way to play Goldeneye at 60fps. Anybody have any experience with it?

There's word that if a patch can be developed to disable all of the anti-aliasing system calls in a Goldeneye ROM it *might* be possible to play the game 60fps on the real console.
>>
>>3082872
Would that be a rom patch or could it be done on something like an action replay?
>>
>>3082864
>kbm
So long as you know that's cheating we're good :^]. Goldeneye's design and difficulty was made for analog controls. Kbm pretty much breaks the game because it makes it far too easy and redundant.

Been on a Dr. Mario kick. I feel the GB version is the best version of that game because it has truly random pill rotation, where as the NES and n64 versions love to give you the red-yellow pill seven times in a row.
