There's the Laseractive, which is a Laserdisc player with plug-in Genesis addon (sold seperately). If you saved your laserdiscs and have 1k to blow (plus extra for the Megadrive addon), its a functional thing. You also can't play Sega CD games on it.

There was the Amstrad Mega PC, a licensed 386 rig with a built in Genesis

>>2939130
Wasn't there a VHS or DVD version of this? Maybe my memory is failing me. The eBay posting was about 300$.

Laseractive is now added to my "must buy" list.

The device I'm referring to was actually a box that would sit under your TV like a dvd vhs player.

Double Dragon 2 is pretty good.

Many people don't realize Carmack himself did the SNES port.

That being said, its the only slightly beter than the 32X version. Its damn near unplayable.

>>2939224

now imagine how bad it would have been if he DIDN'T have a hand in the port...

Most popular games have fanslations in Spanish.

I'd recommend something with a simple plot like Mother 2.

I implore to learn real Spanish some Spain and not the nigger-tier Latin American version.

>>2938920
>some Spain
I meant:

>from Spain

Why would you want to learn spanish?

We have one here in town that I want to hit up. I'm just sad because it looks like they have the World Warrior version of SF2 instead of at least Hyper Fighting.

Any place that has arcade games is fine by me.

Something about having that movie playing bugs the shit out of me

I get you.

For so many years I sucked at this game.

Then, one day, something just "clicked" and I started playing seriously and using the square button in a better way (if I recall correctly, that's the one used for drifting).

For tricks, I do what I always do in every single game: button mashing.

>>2937259

I beat this one with all the characters as a 9 year old.

When I tried it recently the controls blew my mind. The half pipe is sick if you know what you're doing though.

I played it as a kid, it rules. All the different bike... vehicle... things were really cool, the soundtrack was good, and you go fast as hell. It got pretty hype too, the stages were neat. My brothers only ever wanted to play the battle mode though, I thought the actual races were way more fun.

Any idea if the sequels were good? Anyone?

>going so fast you break the sound barrier
so fucking good

soundtrack was good
sequels were all excellent, building on the franchise

Just finished that game a month or two ago. It was great.
I liked the other Metroids more though.

It's the worst of the three Metroid games, for sure, but it's still easily one of the best GB games.

(I refuse to acknowledge anything after Super Metroid.)

You're heavily mistaken if you think Rayman 2 is where Ubisoft dropped the ball OP.

I never played 64, but I played a ton of the original and Type 4.

The fact that pic related still doesn't work in MAME really bums me out. The console ports just don't cut it. Same with The Rock and Cruisn' Exotica.

is it only one level or a full campaign? i hate single level wads.

word is he's trying to make a new fps game, announced it quite a while ago. sorry to be a typical negative chantard but i wont be getting my hopes up. it's an mmo type deal i believe.

>>2905127
I think the atmosphere of the game in general still holds up as interesting in 2016. Considering the limitations of the n64, the world of OOT is still intriguing and mysterious even today I find, due to great graphic design and music/ sound design.

Also, the n64 controller was perfect for the game, simple A and B main buttons, C buttons for items, Z for targeting, it still feels great today.

>>2905127
>What are the things that still make this game unique and memorable in 2016?
First 3D Zelda.

>>2905127
The Forest Temple is still probably my favorite dungeon from any Zelda game. The combo of the art direction and the music is great. Really that entire section when you come out of the Temple of Time, all the way from Hyrule Castle Town to the Forest Temple, is very well done and hammers home how stark the contrast is between child Link's innocent colorful world and adult Link's dark and mysterious one.
