The pedal thing was the cleverest implementation of a cover mechanic ever made.

Chinese bootleg of Super Mario World for the famicom

>>2919523
Mario is missing.

Man that game is shit.

If the games in question support xinput (or are on an emulator), you'll do well with the Xbone controller. If not, I believe the DS4 supports directinput, and if THAT doesn't, the DS3 definitely does.
On top of that, USB controller adapters are plentiful for pretty much everything, so if you want to use controllers you already have, it's just a quick google search away.

Someone here feel like doing a list of good wired controllers that have analog sticks? Seems like wireless is all the rage these days... :(

>>2919512

>>2919305
yes of course it will

>>2919341
Are you sure?
What if there is no game inside?

The SNES plays just like there was a controller hooked up. The N64 just asks you to insert a controller.

Dune 1 - Cryo Interactive, 1992

This isn't Dune 2, the first RTS by Westwood, this game was developed separately at the same time. It's a hybrid of point-and-click adventure, RPG, and strategy.

In Search of Dr Riptide - MindStorm Software, 1994

Side-scrolling shooter/action adventure where you pilot a submarine. Good physics and a small variety of weapons.

Martian Memorandum - Access Software, 1991

The second Tex Murphy game, this is a walky point-and-click inventory/dialog adventure. Includes Access's proprietary "RealSound" system which played digitized voice out the PC speaker, sounded really impressive at the time. Good characters and plot.

Punch-Out is my pick. I don't care for boxing at all but it's very fun.

It's Punch-Out!! with precisely two exclamation points.

Get it right or pay the price!!

theres a pretty sweet dodgeball game for the snes set in the RCR universe. will try to find its name.

NPCs can exceed 10 action points (from what I've learned in FO2). Also perhaps, programmers gave him the fast shot trait

English only person, he's making fun of you for not investing a shit ton of time into learning an obscure foreign language.

I liked this one from that Atari 2600 mashup cart. It would be highly controversial today though

>>2918110
Literally just the Punch-Out!! series. There's one for GBA that's cool, but that's not /vr/ obviously.

Came here to post this.

Secret of Evermore?

I recently discovered Holy Diver, pretty awesome but almost Ghosts n' Goblins difficulty.

ebay, thrift stores, dedicated reseller stores. The latter being worth the money if you'd rather avoid 20 year-old pizza grease and dog piss in every crevice.

And as hilarious as Robert Meadows Presents Gradius III is, it doesn't make much for a serious collection.

>>2917371
Shit, yeah it's really cheap on ebay, ah well. It was worth it for the feeling of going out and buying a NES cartridge for the first time since my dad took me when I was a kid. But yeah, definitely going to check online for prices next time.

>>2917442
Thanks, yeah thrift stores sounds good.

If you want difficulty and atmosphere you should probably just skip straight to Shadow Tower.

>>2917278
Daggerfall.

>>2917278
Ultima Underworld it's basically the father of all those games.

I played it a couple of times and was instantly lost.
It's predecessor "Mystery House"; was played me to death. But I never finished it until pulled out my old rig a couple of years ago and found a walkthrough online.

Apple II Forever!

>>2917270
Reminds me of a game I played where you have to find all these animals in a house before the dragon finds you or something.

I remember playing it in gradeschool on my teacher's computer.

>>2919865
And just like that, I finally found the name of that game. Dragon's Keep also made by Sierra.

Thanks, OP. I'm going to go check out some old text-input adventure games I can barely remember.

Why do you need all this information?

>>2917148
No doubt a high school informative/narrative essay
