I prefer Super Metroid of those three, but you may feel differently. What other games do you really like?

Can't go wrong with any though.

Buy a flash cart instead, nigger.

No girl is going to fuck you because you ave a legit metroid cart

>>2930748
Well, I played N64 the most so games like Mario 64 and OoT. Never played any of the Metriod games. The only Castlevania I've played was on 360

>I thought the 50hz thing was just a meme.
Why would you think a documented technological specification is a meme? Of course it makes a difference you fucking moron.

>>2929663
PAL video signals are 50hz. If you want to play games at the proper speed, get a TV and console that support NTSC.

>>2929812
He thought it being noticeable was a meme, dumb shit.

Thing is megadrive games aren't worth that much even if you had kept the box. Sega is just that much of a failure.

>>2928540
Me too. Zero regrets though. And I still do it when I buy new games now.

Never threw away the boxes/manuals.
Never knew anyone who did either.
Didn't even know that was a thing until I started browsing internet in the early 00's

You know it's true because OP is a fag.

Eastmost Penninsula is what they called my dick in high school.

>>2929509
Not many people thought it existed hence why it was a scret

hidden rupee stash above the gambling area?

Heres the pins by the way

Can we see the back?
Bootleggers always seem to fuck something up the labels

>>2929446
usually boots I've seen don't have the metal plates underneath
Anyway, they shouldn't even play without an adapter thing and an original cart

>So my SNES is outputting in black and white when I use composite video

That's because you're a retarded Yuropoor trying to use an NTSC console with a PAL TV.

>>2927838
this duder
>>2927850
it's all about the oscillator freq the video chip is set at. It doesn't affect RGB thankfully. Get a TV/monitor that supports both PAL and NTSC if this bothers you

>>2927838
>Switching to RGB scart will not give me this problem but I have no idea which cable will actually output 60hz.

If you use an RGB cable then you are completely immune to pal/ntsc problems, since you are not using neither, you use RGB. PAL/NTSC is a colour encoding, and RGB is un-encoded colour.


Whether your console outputs 50 or 60hz is a completely separate matter and is down to the console, not the cable.

>and game in the 1st gen?
That's where all problems begin.

I sure love pong.

Does Spacewar count?

>>2926158
...PSP.
It does everything except SNES really well, up to and including the PSX.

>>2926182
I think the 3DS is also a great emulation machine.

I own a DSiXL with a R4 cart and I can play DS (duh), GB, GBC, NES, Turbografx, Master System, Game Gear and Genesis games on the go.

Sometimes the sound on my Nes emulator sounds like ass but I discovered that closing the console for a few seconds and then opening it again can fix the problem on the spot.

Either a smartphone or a New 3DS. N3DS is usually easier since it can emulate a lot of the stuff I want to play, but it's limited when it comes to actual emulators in comparison to an android device.

I didn't realize a broken clavicle meant you can't use google.

It would help if you would at least give us some idea of the kinds of games you enjoy. e.g. What genres do you normally get into? What about setting? Length? Difficulty?

Just asking for general recommendations is rather pointless. You could use Google for that, and anyone who even feels like bothering to reply to your thread is just going to dump indiscriminate lists of the most popular titles, like Chrono Trigger, FF6 and every other game everybody and their brother has already played to death.

It would also help if you insisted that people try to provide you with some details about their recommendations. Which, again, Google is probably better for. You could sort through any number of fansites that already give you comprehensive rundowns of games for every retro console and why they'd recommend them.

tl,dr - These half-assed threads are spammed on /vr/ every day. Either put some effort into it and try to meet us half-way, or learn to Google.

Y'all seem like fun people.

This was to provoke talk on fun Genesis/SNES games. Sure I could use Google, but I wanted to make a thread for different people to chime in on different games they like. Hell, my SD2SNES SD card has a folder with Game Sanctuary's Top 100 SNES games.

Go shitpost somewhere else.

Only options at the moment, however there are controllers that you can hook up to your phone to make it have a real controller with real buttons.

I recommend you use the fucking index
>>2926158

a psp go with the cradle, a power adapter for the cradle and psp go component cables. assuming you have a ps3 already then you can play ps1 games portably and on your tv through component, with a ds3 controller at home and you get top-tier emulation quality since sony made the emulation themselves.

N64 emulation is pretty good. The flaws with it (mainly graphical) are minor and don't disrupt game play. Haven't tried any other systems because the homebrew Wii emulators are good enough (though I haven't tested all of the games for SNES9xGx)

>>2930338

Edit for clarity: I meant to say that the N64 emulation on the Virtual Console is pretty good. I don't use the homebrew N64 emulator (Wii64/Not64) because it runs poorly.

On WiiU:
NES emulation is shit. Don't buy NES games in WiiU just get hem in Wii. Horrible input lag and the Nintendo decided to add this dark blurry filter to their games.

Likewise, N64 emulation is also shit. Same reasons as the NES.

GBA emulation is pretty good. Some people say the games look dark but they also look clearer than NES games and have way less input lag.

SNES emulation is pretty damn good. It's practically identical to SNES emulation on the Wii.

All this being said don't play on the game pad with off tv play because it will add another two frames of lag.

On Wii:

NES is decent. The graphics are still dark but at least the games are playable, except for super twitch games like punchout.

SNES: also looks and plays well. There's definitely some lag but anything that is game reading like NES games in WiiU.

Genesis: Really damn good. The only major flaw is the sound quality is nowhere near as good as the Model 1 Genesis. However, the games run smoothly.

Neo Geo: Also pretty good.

TG16: haven't tried it yet. Could use some game recommendations. I know Rondo is on there but I've been to lazy to grab it yet.

>>2927579

are you spamming Knight Blazer like a faggot?

>>2927595
Dat music tho

And Knight Blazer is legit, it's not like he's cheating even if he did, it was just poorly designed.

>>2927595
On a few fights yea. I didn't know I was a faggot for not gimping myself.

>>2927601

It was some great music that's for damn sure.

Staport GE? Fun game. Small community though

https://www.project1999.com/

Populated EQ community, I wanted to play on it last year but never got around to it, I also know nothing about EQ so I'm not sure how difficult it would be.

>>2927795
I've wasted plenty on my life on eq including the p1999 servers.

Pros: Fucking huge world to explore. You can spend 2000 hours on a char and still have parts unknown.
P1999 has the best eq community I've ever seen, including the GMs.
Zero hand-holding, you won't see quest markers telling you where to go, hell you won't see an in game map. If you want to know which direction you're facing you'll have to lvl up sense direction skill, buy a compass or cast true north.
Almost every race has their own language plus common tongue, it takes shit talking to another level.
Most players are experienced so you will avoid most of the trial and error of the early eq days. You'll be leveling in the most efficient ways possible most of the time.

Cons:
At high levels, some classes are worthless in groups.
Some classes can't solo.
Almost all of the decent loot requires a full group or raid force to procure.
Mana takes FOREVER to regen.
Most of the server population has a max level character and many have played for 10+years on other servers so new players are at a disadvantage for their first year or so of playing
