It's definitely worth a buy, but you're gonna want one that plays imports for sure. Some of the best stuff never came out in North America.

>>2900410

Nothing going further than PSX have..

If you have a Mega Drive/Genesis try things like Shining Force saga and think about it.

I you like so much the Mega Drive, its ok, but if not, PSX will have anything you want-

Its my opinion.

If you're into 90's-era Capcom fighters, it's got everything you need. Be sure to invest in an Action Replay or RAM cart, though. They're unplayable without one of the those.

>I didn't like something. Time to inform the internet!

Nothing? Some of the best fun I've had in arcade, Gameboy version is also pretty good. Haven't played the sequels though

Jackshit.

It was the inspiration for Zelda.

>>2931162
Tower of Druaga -> Zelda
Dragon Buster -> Zelda 2
Pac-Land -> Super Mario Bros
Baraduke -> Metroid

Nintendo is full of hacks.

I think the composer was going for a violent, scary cacophony but picked the entirely wrong "instrument" for the intended effect.

They noticed how no one took RE1 seriously, and rightly so, so they went "it was always meant to be tongue in cheek guise, lol, cant you hear the new music, this is the way it was always meant to be."

Dreamcast version isn't that good IMO.

>>2924852
elaborate anon

you're about 16 years late to the party, brah

should've just downloaded PSOBB instead

No, because I play games to have fun, not to participate in a community. The community is of secondary importance.

I play games for fun shitbag

beating competition players in the arcade is just an unanticipated dessert

There's a community?

Cheap shit into cheap shit isn't going to get you good shit.

>>2926612
Please elaborate.

Not really all that different from the old AVerMedia AVerKey's. It works, but the picture is a bit on the fuzzy side(don't expect to be able to read small text), and there is the occasional scanline distortion, and the occasional frame of lag. You will be able to play, but it's not that much of an improvement from using your LCD monitor, and in some ways will be worse. You'll get more enjoyment using it to send video signal from movies and tv shows to your CRT. Call me crazy, but old B/W movies just look better on CRTs.

Wario is better than Mario.

They're different, Wario games are slower paced and focus more on exploration.

For GB platformers, the Wario Land games were so packed with personality.

Your mom's bedroom, stage 1 act 69, faggot.

Well.

An emulator's job is to emulate.

>>2930839
To cause inconvenience for dirty pirates like you, obviously.

Just get any disc mounting software.

Obligatory sage.

>emulating Saturn

you fell for it

1, 2 and 4.

3 is literally unfinished. 90% of the rooms you walk into are empty and there's like 6 NPCs per town. Some people apologize for it, but naw dawg

PS4 is basically Sega's FFVI and is one of the best period JRPGs. Great visuals, OST, characters, story. Definitely a must play.

PS1 is good and actually holds up better than FFI in my opinion. It's basically Wizardry and Might and Magic meet Dragon Quest, a solid classic graph-paper dungeon crawler. If that sounds up your alley, give it a play, but you might find it a little dated.

PS2 is a transitional game between I and IV and is supposed to be great with a good story, but I haven't played much of it.

PS3 is the black sheep of the series with some good ideas but incredibly broken execution, delivered by an entirely different team in a rushed development period and as a result plays, looks and sounds like a fever dream. Only play it as an oddity.

3 is bad, not even by the same team

OP again

I vaguely remember my Dad saying no and knowing that it was probably garbage because he knew better about TV/Movie licensed games, but they still bought it for me anyway. It makes you realize how much your parents really love you, willing to waste money on a game just to make you happy even while knowing you'll probably never play it again. So many bad games are bought with parents money.

I was mostly pretty happy with my game purchases as a kid. It wasn't until I got older and I bought games like Other M that I encountered a "10 minutes and never again" kind of game.

The Game Boys always had a lot of shovelware. I think I had a Looney Tunes game on the GBC that kinda sucked.

>>2927727
Dude, I know. Over the past few years, when I've had less time to play games, I've started slowly accumulating a pile of Christmas and birthday games that I've never even opened. And yet my parents keep buying stuff for me. Bless them. I need to put a moratorium on buying new games until I clean out my backlog...

>>2927731
It wasn't the Bugs and Lola one, was it?
Don't ruin my nostalgia blindness, anon. That game was fun when I was a kid.

SNES and Super Mario World.

I would have enough time to practice and do crazy shit like this

Put your copy up for $100 to drive the market down, send me the link

>>2930854
My copy is in the mail and should be arriving sometime today or tomorrow. I think I'll let some other kind /vr/ poster perform the generous act of charity you suggested.

>>2930848

Whenever people get bored of it. There's no reason to not just pirate every thing though, unless you also collect.

Check out these resources:

(They're experts on getting good picture quality, even on non-crt televisions. Don't be afraid to ask questions, but don't storm into a crt thread to convince everyone that your LCD tv is better, basically: don't be a retard)

(Great video series. There is a video in particular called "Getting the best picture from your Super Nintendo" all about the topic you bring up)

In the future, please don't make threads like this - another discussion was removed from this board just to make room for your thread.

first, you need to connect your console with an RGB cable. Make sure you get one adapted for your console (I'm guessing you have an american SNES).
Then, make sure you set the output as 1080p so your tv doesn't do any scaling. Also set your tv to "game mode" if applicable.

Do note that these devices add lag (between 2 and 4 frames, 1 frame is 1/60s ), on top of the display. I can play fine on my pc monitor (because it doesn't process image before displaying), but I tried on a HDTV and despite using game mode, the lag was much more noticiable.
