Idk but this looks bad ass as fuck

It's Dragon Force for the Saturn, anon.

>>2926889
Its addicting and a good RPG for the Saturn. Thought Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shining Force III, or Grandia are the more popular choices

You can play doom with keyboard aiming. Or a bunch of roguelikes if you're looking for plenty of depth

Retro: Captain Comic
Arguably retro: NetHack

Any of the early Sierra adventures that used the AGI game engine. Also pinball games.

You might be able to find one that doesn't turn on for cheap, just needs a quick picp fuse replacement

Wow OP, nice gift.

Ebay seems resolute about 100 bucks. I got really lucky a few weeks ago and got the whole shebang (Gen/CD/32X) for 105. If you know any stores around you with competitive pricing then get in touch with them, maybe they can hook you up.

Also I might recommend getting some CD-Rs, they're a real help with SCD.

>Can anyone tell me a fair price
>all the ebay listings I try to bid on become so over priced
Contradictory post is contradictory.

You can just avoid the fight by stealing the key from the guy. Talking your way out can also work if you're character is build that way.
Fighting only really works when you've specialized in unarmed or melee and even then you shouldn't do aimed attacks.
The temple of trials isn't great design but you won't have trouble if you don't play like a retard.

>>2922986
Well, he's aiming at the head with a 22% chance to hit and seems incapable of doing anything else.
He's doing everything wrong.

>>2922986
There are at least 4 ways I can think of right now to get past that part. He's a boneheaded moron who went full DSP trying to do the same thing over and over again and not learning anything from his mistakes.

I got the Buffalo SNES pad for like $12 and have no complaints, but then again I've only had it for 6 months. Either way, I imagine the SFC controller would work great.

>>2921173
SFC controllers are not 40 bucks, what are you talking about?

And the colored buttons are cool, but honestly I prefer the regular american controller. Why? Because the jap version has a cord that's like 1 foot long. So when I play my SFC, I have to either sit really close or pull the console out from under the TV stand.

Just pirate

Sounds awesome

I've had this pinball machine in my basement for nearly 17 years now, it's still absolutely amazing (not to mention you get to solve a murder mystery while playing it).

Who Dunnit was there, although I didn't get a chance to play it this year. They had nearly all of the 90's WMS games, and they were the most popular.

Ever since I was a young man, I played the silver ball...

It's the kind of idea I'd like to see some dev reusing nowadays, I still like the original though, boxing all the way.

>>2923058
I like this games and its sequels (Runabout 2 and Super Runabout Dreamcast)

>>2924620
It's better than all the Sonic games (put together even)

One of the better game from 5th gen.

Best Christmas game made.

IN THE NIIIIIIIIIIIGHTS
DREAMS DELIGHT

>>2927353
Try a smaller vcr.

>>2927353
Yeah, an RF demodulator (note, NOT a modulator) Be aware that they tend to be rather uncheap.

Or you could get your hands on an RF2703 chip and build a circuit around it. Cheap but time consuming / impossible depending on your power level.

>>2927395
this. All forms available. Plus a VCR and tapes are quite retro themselves, it adds to the feel ..

Shadow Tower

start with that one first

Ultima Underworld

>>2927230
any diablo game

>1 cent for 7 balls
Not bad.

>>2926745
>newest games we're allowed to discuss on /vr/?
That would probably be homebrew/romhacks for /vr/ consoles. Unless you are talking about official releases. The last PSX game came out in 2006(according to wikipedia), the last N64 game in 2002, and the last Dreamcast games came out around 2004-2005. Since the GBC was discontinued in 2003 since the GBA was already on the scene, I figure the last game made for the GBC was somewhere around that time period as well.

>>2927174
I know Shantae was the last major release for GBC in North America.

I think the last games were a random soccer and Powderpuff Girls cash-in game.

>>2926493
only the ps2 version is good

The new Legacy Collection on pc, ps4 and x1 has a cool challenge mode, but only the nes games

>>2926617
Well I worked VC out anyway. Which is apparently fortunate. Why only PS2 version?

What's wrong with the Gamecube version?

Also, is the "easy" difficulty too easy or is it a fluke? I wanna introduce this game to my kids and not have them throwing the controllers like I did.

This.

Trebor's ghost

>link to ebay
>only claim that it is a repro is your post

>expect me to be up in arms

>>2925832
I'm not sure where you are getting your info from, but there is no reason to infer that is a reproduction cart. Please point out to me how this is anything but a prototype cart. Also being that it is a prototype is the reason why it's so expensive.

>>2925832
It would be nice if you could back up your claim OP.

That being said, VGA does kind of suck. Sealing a game in an acrylic case like some kind of art piece is the stupidest thing you could do to it, and instantly drops its value to $0 for me. I buy games so I can play with them (and read the manuals), not so they can sit in permanent stasis on my shelf. I also don't care about factory sealed games at all, because again, I'm just going to have to tear the shrinkwrap off to play it. I do like my game boxes to be in general good condition, though.

No irony, this game had a great soundtrack.

Already have a retro music thread up. Use the catalog. Thanks.
