Alright /vr/, I want to replay the classic resident evils that came out in the late 90s. What are their best versions?

For the first, does the remake supersedes the original or, is it still worth to play the 1996 one?
If so, which version should I go for, PSX, Saturn or DS?

For the second and the third I have no clue and that's where I need your input the most, what are the best versions of those two?

Finally REmake, can I safely go for the pc version or the gc/wii version is better?

RE1 doesn't have a definite version. They all have pros and cons.
PS1, Saturn and PC are all fine. Just stay away from the "Director's Cut: Dual Shock" version (the regular Director's Cut is fine) as it comes with new musics which are largely regarded as way worse than the originals.

The DS version is good, as long as you play it in classic mode and not in the pretty bad new DS mode, although it's almost a different game altogether as it has all new 3D models, new zombie AI, and a couple of new moves for the characters. It's good, but I wouldn't recommend it to someone looking to know what the real original was like.

The remake is amazing, but imo it's very, very different than the original, even in tone. I recommend to play it after the original. I like both as much, in different ways.

For RE2 and 3, Dreamcast and PC are the best versions. GC are fine.
>>
The remakes are totally their own game. Newfags dont understand re blew up over night because it was a CHEESY ZOMBIE MOVIE. I rented it the weekend it came out (long box first edition). My friends and i werent like WOW NEXT LEVEL EVERYTHING it was more like HAHAHA THIS IS AWESOME. The franchise started to suck when it took itself seriously.

Playing the first 3 res games with any other frame of mind is a fools game.

Previous Thread - >>3009914

This thread is for the spirited discussion of CRT displays - Televisions, monitors and projectors used for the playing of retro games!

>Try to keep it /vr/-related: Nothing past 5th gen(+Dreamcast). Slight OT might be okay if related to CRTs (E.G. 16:9 compatible models, flatscreens, etc.) Systems with backwards compatibility are also pretty safe territory, assuming you're focusing on the older games. PC CRTs are also a-ok.
>Produce OC! Get out your real cameras and take beautiful pictures of your CRTs displaying recognizable characters with the kind of beautiful accuracy that brings tears to the eyes of young and old alike! If you take 100 photos, at least one of them will turn out alright! (maybe)
>Try to be as detailed as possible when asking info on a specific model. As always, google is your friend, and we are your friends with benefits. Older archived threads aren't a bad place to look either.
>Share appreciation for others choice of technology and personal philosophy of gaming. As always show courtesy in your discussion and moderate yourselves first.

Discussion of video processing and scaling devices is okay, but try to keep the focus on CRTs and CRT accessories

I have a beautiful small CRT but:
• the only ports on it are SCART and antenna
• to play on it, I need to first turn it on, then adjust the volume, then change the channel to the right one from the remote control
• I don't have the original remote control so I have to use my phone

Is there some trick that could automate the process? Or better yet, can I tear the fucker down and buy some converter that I can just hook up to the cathode cannon? It'd make a really neat monitor too, so if there's a way to use it as a display for a computer that'd be awesome

PERSONALLY I NEVER PLAYED SS2 UNTIL IT WAS ALMOST A DECADE OLD, BUT I FIND IT TO BE A FANTASTIC FPS/RPG/HORROR TITLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN COMPARED TO IT'S SPIRITUAL SUCCESSORS, WHICH STARTED AS PRETTY OKAY AND MAYBE EVEN PRETTY GOOD WITH BIOSHOCK AND THEN ENDED AS SOMETHING COMPARABLE TO WHAT I LEAVE IN THE TOILET WITH BIOSHOCK INFINITE

OFTEN PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT NOSTALGIA GOGGLES BUT I IN FACT PLAYED SS2 AFTER BIOSHOCK AND FIND IT TO BE THE SUPERIOR OF THE TWO

SS2 IS ALSO ACTUALLY SCARY AND BIOSHOCK IS NOT

I NEVER PLAYED IT BUT I HEARD IT WAS QUITE GOOD OP

Are these controllers good for emulators?

They look comfy as shit and looks like you have everything you need for NES-SNES games.

I know the N64 would most likely not be usable for this device, but there is always the Steam controller for that. Then again, I could always just use the controller for all emulators anyway.

I discovered this controller from a video I stumbled upon on YouTube. Here it is.

Never used it, but from a single picture of the shoulder buttons alone I can tell it's the single best controller on the market bar none.

Your video confirms my thoughts.

You'd be surprised. I have a bluetooth SFC controller from them and aside from having to re-pair it every time I want to use it (which may or may not be the fault of my laptop's bluetooth module) It's a really good controller. Can't speak for the ones with analog sticks though.

I've felt this when I've bought old pokemon games and their childhood save was still on it, my Pokemon games were all stolen so I don't have them anymore so it hits me kind of hard. Except gold, I've never found a gold cart with a working battery, I don't think that is even possible.

Where do I get old cell phone games and emulators? (Not smartphones)

Can I put them on my actual phone and not play them on a computer?
75 posts and 17 images submitted.

Search for J2ME games on Google, you can put them on your phone via USB, just make sure they have the proper screen proportions.
>>
Also you can try KEmulator if you don't have a phone.
>>
>>3033490
The only retro phones I know of that had downloadable games were Japanese. Everything else had built in games and I've never seen them dumped. J2ME didn't arrive until a bit later. Some Nokia games were remade for ngage.

Your pic related is unretro by many years. You may as well come here and ask about PS3 shit.

>What is Puyo Puyo?
Puyo Puyo is a puzzle game created by Compile and currently owned and developed by Sega that can be described as similar to tetris with a spin, instead of filling lines to make bricks dissapear, you connect 4 slimy blobs (puyos) of the same color, puyos can fall downwards, with this you can achieve combos.

>Where can I play?
You can play it on almost every retro and modern console in existence. Recommended versions are:
- Puyo Puyo Tsu (Super Famicom, Saturn, PSX, PS2, Mega Drive, Game Boy, Game Gear, Windows, PC Engine, Neo-Geo Pocket and Wonerswan)
- Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary (DS, 3DS, Wii, PSP)
- For netplay: Puyo Puyo VS 2 (Windows)
- For extra craziness: Puyo Puyo Tetris (3DS, Wii U, PSVITA, PS3, PS4, Xbox One)

>How do I git gud?
