Is it even worth buying a legitimate Earthbound copy, or should I just buy a reproduction?

You could spend $200 or you can spend $20.

Emulate or get the Wii U release...if you are one of 10 people who have one.

>>2996462
That is solely up to you, isn't it?
I think there's a decent chance that Earthbound carts haven't hit their max price, if that makes a difference.

Let's settle this matter once and for all: which was the better Chrono game, and why?

Judging it purely as a website , I think it's rather mediocre. Navigating the side is annoying.
I like the content though.

No. It's corrupt as fuck and their "opinions" are objectively false. They're literal faggots.

I WISH I could get back into UO. I got pretty far a few years back and I still have the account. But holy shit, no fucking thank you to that approach to end game where tamers are much better money makers but taming requires you to play the game like its a job for 8 hours a day.

IDOCING has always been the superior money maker. By 1000x. and requires 0 skill training.
If you weren't a pleb you'd know this.

>requires 0 skill training
maybe if you have young status and you can avoid getting stomped by the 3 other guilds camping it.

Didn't tskr me that long to hit gm taking on uof. Though its boring as fuck to train and play as anyway. A bard archer can be trained in like 10h and can cash in just as much gold and are a lot more fun.

Been playing through Link's Awakening over the past couple of days. I realize now why I loved it so much as a kid. It literally holds your hand most of the way... except for the fucking trading quest...

Would it be possible to get a computer from the mid-late 90s that could play games all the way from that point in time backwards to the earliest computer games, with little to no emulation involved?
I think I'd actually like to, as a hobby, have an old-ass PC and play old Windows and DOS games without having to emulate DOS or run anything in compatibility mode.
Is this doable? How cheaply could it be done? Do you think the novelty would wear off quickly or could it be a genuinely rewarding hobby?

uh, yes. People do it all the time. search youtube for "win98 build"

Cool. Thanks. I have about $100 to throw around, so I guess I can get cracking next weekend.
>>
>>2995353
no, it is impossible. trying to use old computers is against nature and the sweaty astral projection of Steve Ballmer will haunt you screaming "DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS" if you even try.

I think PS1 could handle Half-Life if they tried hard enough.

Of course it could, it managed Quake 2.
However the levels would be piss short and the transitions annoying as fuck. Also the physics/lighting would be totally static.
It would have worked but been a totally gimped version of the game.

Left to the Star of David. However, SMW is pretty good, I just like the leaf and some of the stages more.
Which are the games with the most beautiful pixel art?

Yeah I don't think for a second that I could top Metal Slug, although I'm sure there's solid competition out there if you look close enough.
Alien Soldier had some great art in it though.
