Your opinion on KARATEKA?
This here.
Never played it, but I know my friend hated it so much as a kid that he literally threw the cart to the trash bin.
Also it's Hideki Kamiya's favorite western-developed game.
I like it. I played a bunch of dojin and porn dojin parodies back in the day that were better than the original. I think one of them feature tifa and the sequel morrigan or some shit. But alas NOT RETRO.
Can I have some retro video game wallpapers for my new phone?

Here's a fav
>>2875850
About to start this for the first time ever. What am I in for? Any optimal party setups?
Any party is good, you just need to accept that magic is inferior for healing
Frog is amazing, but all are epic to use. Just happen to think frogs are badass. I usually use Marle, Chrono and Frog but occasionally switch Marle with robo or Lucca just because I love them. Haven't used cat girl aayla as much but also haven't beaten it yet. Absolutely love it in all honesty. Definitely worth the classic status it recieved.
You're in for basically everything good about an SNES RPG being represented in some way.
What is the retro gaming console with less violent video games, and very more games for all ages and all audiences?
the tiger gamecom wait that induces user violence
>>2875691
no, it has to be a console, which has almost no violent games.
Moreover if you have no violent game, and all games are for all age groups best for me
I remember you made this thread before.
The only answer is: just don't buy games with violence if that bothers you.
So, playing these things on a Windows 7 machine seems nothing short of a nightmare. Dos games can be made playable with Dosbox, but when it comes to games that were specifically made for Windows, am I shit ton out of luck on making them run on a Windows 7 modern machine?
Good christ, all I can do at this point is pray there's a GOG version because I cannot into computers.
I just want to play some fucking Shivers and this goddamn machine updated its own damn self to Windows 10 a few months ago - which is a better system for everything except the games.
>>2875523
Yeah, pisses me off since I wanted to get down to some adventure games I missed back in the day.
>das it mane
Is this objectively the best Snes game?
No. Fuck off.
It's not. But it's my fav
That's not Chrono trigger senpai.
Other than G.G. Shinobi 1 and 2, what are some recommended Game Gear games?
>>2875426

sor2
power rangers 1 and 2 (try it before you knock it)
GG aleste 2
vampire
wonder boy
columns
jurassic park
Devilish
>>2875498
I am seconding Jurassic Park.
Is there a way to accurately tell if a game you bought is a reproduction?
Obviously people are able to put romhacks and translations on a cart and sell them on ebay for $80 and of course that's a dead giveaway to anyone even remotely familiar with those games, but what about other games?
How do you tell if someone just popped the chips out of a copy of Lester the Unlikely and rewrote the chips and printed off a new label and called it Hagane?
>>2875279
unless you're a collector you shouldn't care
>>2875279
They usually look like the pic you posted. It's not hard to tell, but the best way to know is if it is ridiculously cheap compared to a real copy.
>>2875319
Idiotic response. This thread isn't for you, kid. Poor person detected.
What screen do you guys play your old games on? CRT? 4:3 LCD? 16:9 LCD? For you LCD users, what upscaler are you using?
I felt the need to hook up my Saturn so I picked up a cheap Chinese "Panlong" upscaler. My monitor wants to stretch 1024x768 to 16:9 for some reason, so I'm looking for a used 4:3 LCD screen like an old model Dell Ultrasharp.
I'm not looking for perfection; I'm not going to spend the money on a Framemeister. Just want it to be decent. I'm curious what you guys use for your setups.
>>2875267
I use a 42" RCA 1080p 60hz with a Framemeister. This TV is amazing when using a Framemeister. The 240p test suite records only 0.04 frames of lag!
I kept my old CRT TV that I got in '99.
CRT is by far the cheapest option
So, I've found this Atari in my basement and I want to know what version is that, I know it's a 2600 but I can't find no picture of that model. It's not the Darth Vader because it just have 3 buttons.
>>2875001
I'd say it was probably a demo unit considering it has hardwired controllers

You're the only board i feel safe admitting this to:
In honor of Sonic's 25th, I intend to use the next year to reconnect with the franchise...
>>2874639
Good form. Anyway Sonic went to shit as soon as he stopped being retro so don't worry about it.
>>2874659
But...I plan to play Sonic Adventure.
>>2874673
Spoiler: It's shit aside from the awesomely cheesy buttrock OST
Have fun anyway anon.
Anyone get any /vr/ related Christmas presents?
I got a SNES with Super Mario World, Secret of Mana, and Starfox, and I'm having a blast with it. This also completes my collection of the major Nintendo consoles.
Fuck off underage
Oh and Merry Christmas faggot
Merry christmas, enjoy those beautiful games
Are the Evangelion games any good? Which are the most fun/easiest to emulate?
Retro how?
>>2874151
Well, Evangelion came out in 1995 and it has various /vr/ games.
OP, there is Evangelion 64 but it's a nightmare to emulate.
If you like visual novel kind of games, there is Girlfriend of Steel which has a fantranslation in english and you can play it on PC.
There are other VNs on Saturn but these are all only in japanese.
I remember playing a PC strategy game where you have to defeat all Angels one by one using Evas 00, 01, 02 and Jet Alone.
I think it was unofficial and in Japanese. Been years since I played it, so I'm not sure you can still find it on the net. If you can, though, try it. It was fun and pretty hard little game.
So I didn't see one, so I thought I'd start it. Show off your awesome retro gifts!
My fiancee got this for me for Xmas. Got me completely by surprise, though she knows I'm a huge Nintendo nerd.
Does this mean she loves me, or does she want me to go blind?
>>2874013
Are you in Japan or something? or do you open gifts at 12am?
>>2874061
Maybe he exchanges gifts on Christmas Eve.
>>2874013
people don't buy me games because everyone knows I'm a video-gaming addict, the last video game related gift from my immediate family was a Playstation 1 back in 1999, I wish I was exaggerating
