Overhead throw is all you need.
The other robots don't have shit on the Jaguar in tournament mode. It's cheaper to upgrade and has useful hidden extras and simple destruct moves.

And once it gets boring move to Nova and become literally invincible.

Great soundtrack. The thing that killed it was how easy it was to find a way to exploit most characters, so there was no challenge.

Chatting and playing together for hours? Seriously, no.
I fail to see how any sane person would come here for more than the occasional post.

If you got enough people I probably would, I am more interested in playing different mods like rocket crowbar 2 or hostile intent or the specialists or something.

Your picture does not do this topic justice. Allow me to interject with an appropriate non-biased one.

>pic related

Now, as for recommendations; which console will you be playing on?

>>2863739
Avoid 8 bit as an introduction. It's better to play those games later if you're curious to see how developers built the foundations of the genre. You should start with some of the best ones if you want a good first impression.

Since this is /vr/, I'm keeping it 16 to 32 bit.

SNES
Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy VI
Secret of Mana

GENESIS
Shining Force II
Phantasy Star IV

SEGA CD
Shining Force CD
Lunar 2: Eternal Blue

TURBOGRAFX CD
Ys Book I and II

PLAYSTATION
Final Fantasy IX
Suikoden II
Xenogears

SATURN
Shining Force III
Panzer Dragoon Saga (you're going to have to pirate this unless you want to spend a fortune. It's absolutely worth a playthrough, however you get your hands on a copy.)


If you want something a bit less intense but still awesome games to ease you into JRPGS:

SNES
Super Mario RPG

N64
Paper Mario

>>2863739
Chrono Trigger is ideal introduction. Relatively short, not too difficult, high production values, memorable characters. The story makes no sense but that's to be expected from a JRPG.

>>2862789
Looks interesting, Is it true ID gave Wisdom Tree
the source code to Wolfenstein 3D as a fuck you to Nintendo?

isn't this worth a bundle

Actually the automap was added to the Steam port.

Still makes the game much more fun to play than Wolfenstein though, but I'm sure some sourceport adds that to Wilfenstein too.

It's got a fantastic D-pad and the analogs are very suitable for PSX games especially.
Not a fan of the shoulder buttons though but all in all it's a solid controller for emulation.

imo

Been pretty happy.

Sound/headsets doesnt work on pc and probably never will.


Touchpad works if you get inputmapper.

You need a Broadcom or intel Bluetooth card for shit to work...

Two controllers have reasonable input lag. Like 4-8ms

Adding a single a2dp headset bumps it up by 5ms.

Having several seoarste keyboards mice have been fine.

I hear the f510 is pretty good.

Get that fucking bullet hell garbage out of here. Pic related the best shmup before fucking danmakufags killed the genre.

That was a great thread.

It's one of the few series that I like to play all of them. Minus the abortions on later consoles.

>>2852589
>No one seems to discuss this series anymore.
Because it's typical 90s big-eyed animal mascot shit, no different than Bubsy or Gex.

>>2852589
There's nothing to discuss.

The first three Spyro games, especially Spyro 1, are masterpieces.

Can we roleplay our characters? Serious question.

I think that is fine, but personally I would rather erotic roleplaying not become a part of it. Roleplaying would only add one more layer of fun.

Is this Vanilla UO, before Age of Shadows?

>>2844547
I've been meaning to ask on the Neo-Geo forums but I'll ask here first if anyones got some input.

My MVS cab is a 2 slot cabinet, that has a 4 slot board in it. Its obviously been replaced by the previous owner, and he got it from a place in vancouver (pacific vend stickers plastered everywhere).

Now this thing has some wonky as fuck behaviors.

>Slot 1 displays images incorrectly
Previous owner says the contacts were dirty. Its displaying I guess shifted bits, so there are obvious lines with incorrect graphics. I hosed it with contact cleaning but I haven't taken it out yet.

>Slot 2 doesn't have sound
>Slot 3 appears to be perfect
>Slot 4 has really low sound
>If multiple games are in, Slot 3 doesn't have sound

Among a few other issues.

Is it possible its not getting enough juice from the power supply? Theres absolutely no sound if I have multiple games in. Occasionally it will also skip games, but if I remove a game from the board it sometimes works.

Supposedly 4 slots are just wonky. I'll probably document everything wrong with it and make a post on the Neo-Geo forums later.

Came across a rather niffy CIC mod for the NES that involves soldering 2 wires to the board.

If anyone wants any information on this, I'd be happy to help.

Could a faulty limit switch on a Sega CD(2) lead to damaged gears and the sled attempting to go further away from the center than it should, or could damaged gears be mimicking a faulty limit switch?

Bought an "as is" Model 2 and I'm trying to get it up and running correctly.
Reads discs, but seems to take a bit long to load at times (I have no "properly working" point of reference so I can't really say on that one) and tracking for audio at times.
These are often times accompanied with grinding noises coming from the sled; The reason I'm not sure it's a limit switch issue is because one of the gears is a bit chewed up and that the grinding noise happens both when the assembly is near the center(what a limit switch problem would cause) as well as it pushing all the way out to the very edge.

If it is a limit switch issue (and as such need new gears or something along those lines) would someone be able to point me in the direction of decent instructions on how to go about either repairing said switch/bringing it back into proper alignment, or if it would be possible to replace the switch?

I have some video of the drive in action, but I still need to cut out the useless junk and/or possibly retake it as it the focus is debatable at times.

TFTD could look spectacular with a modern game engine.

It's hard, very, very hard. Why? The devs were responding to feedback from UFO Defense players who complained that the game was too easy because it had the difficulty bug that nobody knew about. Certain additions to TFTD such as melee weapons were due to player suggestions as well. "Some of the aliens have melee attacks, so the player should also be able to use them."

UFO Defense never gets that hard even on Superhuman and it's almost a breeze once you know what everything does and when it does it. Knowing TFTD intimately will just help you survive a bit better.

Valiant
or
Valiant Vaccinated + Trailblazer?

Vaccinated can be run with any gameplay mod, not just Trailblazer.
Valiant by itself is still the truest experience, though.

Atari 2600 for arcades 'sit down for 5 mins and play a game' although I played HERO on the 2600 for almost 8 hours the first time I played it

Snes for jrpgs, arcade ports, and a few weird shmups but also megaman X, PILOTWINGS and more.

Snes is more expensive than the Atari overall, upto you is the depth of what you'd like to play, I own both.
