I like it. How do I get good at it?

Love this post! And I love pac-man! Pac-man is especially good if you play it with the right hardware. I haven't tried Pac-Man on the PS1 with a joystick, but I figure that would be a good experience. Oddly enough, I enjoyed Pac-Man the most when I downloaded it on my iPod Video from the iTunes store in 2005. You could save your game and the controls were a lot of fun.

Ms. Pacman is better.

bump for suggestions.

Some guys are working on SNES and Genesis component cables.

Who knows when they get it for sale, but you know.

>>3006756
This looks pretty neat. I'll definitely bookmark it.

Would I need an adapter for the D-Terminal to throw these component cables through the Framemeister?

Seems like the project is pretty far along.

already beaten the game vanilla

now playing 1.13 + Arulco Revisited with split up teams (Bull and two IMPs from Omerta through San Mona to Chitzena; third IMP, Mouse, Ira and Barry from Omerta to Drassen and the N-E SAM site)

>>3006716
Nice

I've never actually beaten the game even though I love it. I've decided to go back to vanilla and then try 1.13 after. It just changed the core mechanics too much for my taste.

>>3006583
Dreamcast. No contest.

>which version to play
Literally does not matter, it's all minute details.

RE1 doesn't have a definite version, they all have pros and cons. I say do a first playthrough on the original NTSC-U PS1 release (non director's cut).

RE2 and 3, Dreamcast and PC are the best versions.

RE:CV you don't want to play.

>>3006365
Didn't they release of a string of shit around the 6th generation?

Haven't seen the new kirby game huh?

HAL has always been hit and miss as fuck. Their only consistency was with the Kirby series and their best game came out 20 years ago now.

Bowser is a turtle, not a dragon like i thought my whole childhood.

He's called "King Koopa" in SMW, and the Koopa are turtles. I never made this connection because i never paid attention to speech and text details in video games until i began to play and learned to love JRPGs last year.

I felt like an idiot after understanding this because if you look at him, it's really painfully obvious he's just a massive koopa with spikes on his back and some hair.

That Kranky Kong was the original Donkey Kong guy.

The red eyes on level 1-2 in Rondo of blood was the same thing that chased you at the end of the level. I love little details

Nah, RKA did the whole Space thing way better.

Mecha Hitler is

No but that slick boss track left me trembling in my knickers.

Not even the best Treasure STG, kiddo.

>>3006154
RSG is a boring as fuck grinding game.

At least post Gradius V if you want to try posting a better Treasure game.

>>3006169
>grinding game
>I couldn't be assed to learn how to score it properly

End thyself.

Agreed

>belt scroller
Heh, I like it

>>3005620
>belt scroller

Stop it, weeb.

>>3005518
i would imagine pc has more options with the emulators being able to tweak the graphics and such.

>>3005518
PS1 games on pc look great. Definitely the best option.

>>3005518

MSX is the most patrician console

You're a pretty lame person

>>3005507

Bianca is the only real choice desu. I mean, Deborah is really hot and Nera is really sweet but Bianca is the true wife.

>>3005507

I chose Nera because she'd make the best mother of my children. I cucked Bianca so hard. I don't care that she's your childhood friend I thought she was annoying.

the only retro store here is bullshit. 4x ebay price.
How the fuck have they been able to stay open for years I mean who the fuck buys anything from them? I understand they have to make money but what the fuck

>>3005441
the one i go to is similar, they sell more dvds and next gen games and phones etc than sega or nintendo games so i guess they mark up the price?

I really think there are some sellers who are so dead-set on the idea that their goods are rare and valuable that they'd rather close their doors than budge an inch on price ("for offer no lowball i know what the game is worth"). Every once in awhile some guy probably comes in and pays their ridiculous prices, thereby reaffirming their belief that all they have to do is wait long enough and that one special guy in the area who understands the true value of old games will come in and pay $60 for their sunfaded, "RICKY'S GAME" Super Mario Bros. 3 cart. With the apparent boom in terms of collecting old games, you wind up with a vicious cycle of opportunistic sellers feeding and being fed by new, frenzied buyers who have little knowledge of the market (or rather little understanding of the market before these fad-hopper types shat all over it). It doesn't help that some people in both of these groups likely view old games as poor man's investment pieces.

Enemy design in that game was legit spooky.

It reminds you of your Yu-Gi-Oh deck...

Probably because it's a fairly generic design. I don't know, did you ever see this ad, by any chance? There's Doom Gaze on the left side doing the exact same pose.

Nah, the appearance of the Altered Beast monster is just a cameo.
