Get a Rygar in there, anything Williams is ace, Tapper, Spy Hunter, Crystal Castles, Elevator Action.

Is this going to be open to the public, or just a private thing?

>>4104529
Anything Williams. Atari vector-based games. Bally/Midway licensed Namco games.

This^^^

Could change alot of variables.

Ys is great.

>>4104428
Yeah, I absolutely loved the first one after a bit of trial and error figuring things out. I started the sequel, but got sidetracked by some real life shit. It's at the top of my to-do list though.

Does anyone have a link to that one guy's youtube channel with all the PC-98 versions of the music tracks? As much as I love the SNES OST, the PC-98 ones were way better. I can't seem to find it though... I think his name was J-something..?

>>4104578
The classic Ys games are the definition of a polished turd.

>playing Quake 1 for the first time
>every time I think to myself "it sure would suck if a shambler attacked me" that's exactly what happens

I can't tell if this is clever game design or if I'm just the unluckiest anon alive.

Is Heretic playable on highest difficulty on first playthrough? I usually play modern community doom .wads on UV. I also couldn't find information whether the levels were intended for "pistol" starts.

>>4104341
It was the Atari Jaguar. I don't think there were any ideas behind it at all.

Reducing the comparison of the consoles to a simple "our number is bigger than theirs" while implying that if you disagree or don't understand why the bigger number of bits is inherently better overall, then you're an idiot.

>>4104360
granted, nobody actually knew what *-bit meant in the 90s. bigger was just understood to be better.

Megaman sites, though mostly Megaman Matrix. They had a neat little chat room where you could select Megaman character avatars, albeit only the classic series.

>>4104324
Zdoom forum from 8yo to 15yo, played a fuckton of doom wads. Also pokemon romhacks community

>>4104324
Online Pokemon battling on IRC channels back in R/B/Y and G/S/C days. Every day after school for hours on end. Helped me learn english too!

Better luck next time, summer.

>>4103098
google 'vsrecommendedgames' and you'll find what you need.

>>4103115
I'm here all year you stupid shit. I've enjoyed my other 5th gen consoles, even the saturn, but besides Crash and SOTN I haven't done much with my PS1. Now that I got it chipped I'm hoping to play some of the better games

FFIX.

FFVIII isn't as terrible as some people make it out to be, but I definitely enjoyed IX a lot more than VIII.

I guess in the end I slightly prefer VIII because at least it is it's own thing instead of trying to be like the older games like IX does.

neither

Easily the best racer on the n64.

[/spoiler]I'd even say best racer of that gen[/spoiler]

Just play it anon. It really isn't that difficult. Just don't get over 1400kph on Silence so you don't randomly fly off the track.

>>4102587
I am playing it, I just need more advice on how to play it better.
So far the best I've done is 3rd on the first circuit out of like ten attempts.

>>4102592
What difficulty are you playing?
If you're in beginner, just get gooder.
if you're in more advanced cups, you need to kill your rival (rival is market with an arrow). To destroy other machines you need to double tap R while you're turning on the direction you want, it will make your machine spin. It gets some time to get it right, but for the first few cups, you don't really need to do that.

then there's the Playstaion game, it came out very late in the system lifespan and looks amazing

>>4100925
this the playstation game is good

>>4100637
Leaves me wondering why the RetroDuo Portable's NES adapter can't work in an actual SNES.

But then again, the only reason Master System games work in a Genesis is because they're built on the same framework.

>>4100637

The SNES's CPU's instruction set contains all of the NES's CPU's instructions, so a NES to SNES adapter could work, but SNES to N64 would need emulation, since the SNES and N64 have completely different CPU architectures.

>>4100648
>The SNES's CPU's instruction set contains all of the NES's CPU's instructions
Is that right?

Use PCSX-R PGXP with PeteOpenGL2Tweak
for BIOS use scph7502

I use retroarch beetle_hw core. It's essentially mednefen with some .ore graphical features.

by the end of the PSX lifetime squaresoft had figured that thing out backwards and forwards and were overall graphics wizards. FF8 and FF9 are gorgeous too.

I think it was around 1999 or so where some kind of developmental tool was made to help them optimized and budget better, and everything from Square to literal nobodies started making some crazy looking shit towards the end of the PS1 life span.

Through emulation. Very few VGA monitors will sync 15khz with Csync like the RGB signals most consoles put out.
