Happy New Year /vr/! What are your gaming resolutions this year? What are you planning to finally play or beat?

My gaming resolution is to try to stick as hard to retro games as possible, and really learn and understand more about emulation and older titles. Also, to try keeping a record of what I play so I can stay on track and not just load a ROM, play for two minutes and never do it again.
Also, to see if it's actually possible to play JPN titles with working Japanese knowledge like some anons say. I'm gonna try to play a Japanese (text intensive) game even if I have to sit with a dictionary translating line by line. Hoping that this is a decent way to learn some things.

But I'll keep trying.

After an entire fucking year of owning a Genesis, I should really just finally bite the bullet and drop that $150 on a mega everdrive

Why would they make Fallout 2 literally unbeatable at this part? Are there any mods to make this part actually beatable?

>There's a new version of Yabause from japanese developper Devmiyax, based on his recent android port uoYabause. This version is a great improvement from original Yabause, on par with SSF and even better on some games.

>On my machine (2500k @ 4.0GHz, GTX 970), I was able to get 60fps in every 2D game I tried, and 40-50fps in the 3D games I tried in software mode. If I switch to OpenGL, I get 60fps in everything, but there are graphical bugs, and there's no way to increase the size of the window without increasing the internal rendering resolution.
>If someone is interested, could you try this emulator out and tell us what sort of performance you're getting? This seems really promising.

Started re-playing Knights of Xentar/Dragon Knight III and I'm really enjoying the combination of old school JRPG and random sleaze.
The writing is actually funny at times. And it's only as a grown-ass man that I've picked up on the reference of the rich guy in the first village, "Frump", who lives in "Frump Tower". What a doozy!
Are there any similar games available in english? Any old games that have been fan translated recently?
Also sleazy retro games in general, I guess.

Literally starting naked is a nice way to make fun of RPG tropes. The villagers have some interesting reactions to that.

I mean,it's clearly inferior to it's predecessors but it still wasn't a cash abomination like that playstation game.

Basically never, not the way you're thinking anyway. The level files and engine that leaked earlier this year were a fucking mess, not near anything worth playing. There's a guy working on a playable reinterpretation of it in an all-new modern engine that looks fantastic. You can check out the difference in this video

Hello /vr/,
another thread about autism and the aspect ratio of NES and SNES.
We all know that 8:7 is not the aspect ratio displayed by the real console.
My problem or rather confusion is the following:
In Retroarch I play with Aspect Ratio provided by the core, which is 4:3.
Now if you tick or untick the option "crop overscan" the image will get stretched differently.
Without overscan cropping it's 1280x960px and with it's 1196x896px.
Which one is the right one? Or is it a completely different one? This question goes for NES and SNES.

I thought the console did output 8:7 ? I dunno I wasn't keeping up with the threads I just remember one a month ago.

What are /vr/'s best recommendations of Sega Genesis games? I used to play a lot of them when I was a kid, my absolute favorites have been the Phantasy Star series (IV>III>II) and some of the good platform ones (Tiny Toons, Ristar, Toejam and Earl, obviously Sonic) but I'm wondering if I missed some others.

I remember seeing the ads as a kid - I didn't own a PSX and wasn't allowed to play violent video games yet so the game looked mysterious and AWESOME.
I picked up a copy in 2015 and was sort of underwhelmed. I can imagine how it would have been amazing in 97/98.

MDK2 was a disappointment, but it's also not retro, so thankfully we don't have to think about it here.

MDk2 is on the dreamcast m8, so we can talk about it. Honestly, I thought MDK2 was a decent game.

It was a launch title. That means tons of copies available.

I've always wanted a copy of this game for no other reason than to see Nester again.

I could never get into it even though I really liked the rocketman-missions. The rest was just too uninteresting for me, but I really liked the prequel.

Use a CRT on which you can significantly adjust the dimensions. Yours probably can. Learn about the service menu.
