I love Actraiser. Never got a chance to play it as a kid but loved it when it came to the virtual console years ago. Would be great to find a copy

PAL version has the most features of any release but does run at 5/6 the speed. Patching a PAL rom to run at the correct speed makes for the best Actraisor experience.

Unfortunately the US release was gutted (made super ease, lack the "professional!" arcade mode of the PAL version)

Shame Actraiser 2 just isn't the same as the first, its alight...

The last game I played that I genuinely loved having never played it before...

Probably Dino Crisis 2.
It was just great.

Wow. That's pointless.

I bet Peach is real easy after a drink r two

The game is only a demo and the full game is probably lost for good.

Is it a properly trimmed demo or is it the full game with just a little stuff changed out that you can potentially restore? If it's the latter, you still have a chance to find a copy if you go to Japan and look for it, but who's going to do it?

It appeared to be the Japanese equivalent of a shareware demo. Cut down to be an easy download even at 2400bps. If it was crippleware it would (probably) be at least the size of a whole floppy disk.

Shadow Tower Abyss.

Shadow Tower.

I wish they had used an engine that didn't chug though. Armored Core had already come out so they were clearly capable of making one with a better draw distance and less slowdown.

Got killed when I tried to save. That was the only mistake I ever made during that part.

I use save states.

Last time I played PE was in the early 00's so it's tough to remember... I think I failed the first time, but the whole game was full of somewhat obscure-to-find items and switches that required you to hug walls mashing the context-sensitive action key a lot. Just like Resident Evil 2, except with more narrow event triggers. So I don't think the game was tricking me *too* much at that point.

The part that I remember fucking with me the most was in... I think it was Central Park or maybe a zoo, there was a bunch of snow, and there was some item you had to find in a drawer or something but you needed to be pixel-perfect to "activate" the drawer and get an item from it. I thought I had checked it already, but I wasn't positioned just right.

I also vaguely remember struggling at the museum with dinosaur skeletons.

Ice Man is the epitome of "cute" in the Ariga mangas

While Star Man is gay, looks even more gay than Jewel Man

I have it on PC, but it always crashes on the 4th world. Never beaten it. I do love the music, though. Especially the mine track.

Not releasing Croc 2 on Saturn instead.

Nothing. It's a much better game than Croc 1.

HURRR DURRR HOW DEED I DOO GAUISE?

Does it work?

If so you did pretty well anon

If you need our approval you've done pretty badly at life.
If you don't plan on selling them or playing them you wasted $10. If you do, you already know you you "did."

Use mushroom

>>4047624
you can't mushroom when you're small

>>4047617
waiting.

but seriously, if you are playing multiplayer, the only honorable thing to do is use a lightning immediately upon getting one.

Outrun 2019 is a fun quick beat. Good music, easy gameplay, and its designed for the Genesis, so it doesn't suffer from the horrid jerkiness that awful arcade-Genesis ports like Turbo Outrun suffer from.

>what are good games for x system

we have these threads every day, do some research

I know what good games the mega drive has, that's not what I asked. Phantasy Star is a great game but it's super long for example.

That was a very shitty belt scroller.

At least the soundtrack is pretty... "def"

The problem with this game is that it could only detect one hit collision at a time, so if you line up a punch with two enemies only one of them would get hit stunned and the other one would be free to punish your sorry ass.

overclocked SNES emulator is the best

>>4045292
I like how they remade some ghosts and goblins levels for the gba version. It's pretty neat.

PC actually (Maldita Castilla)

>>4045271
Excellent game. You're fine, brother

The PS1 FFs are rose tinted glasses bullshit.

ok here's the actual program. the rest of the side is an ad, so not losing anything there.

Does this really merit two concurrent threads?

Really?

I have a handful of arcade cabs:
Candies: Astro, Blast (with a Wei-Ya monitor now), Neo (monitor has been out of this one for ages, waiting for my lazy ass to finish recapping it - to be fair, it has an inordinate amount of capacitors)

Dedicated: Lost World (stand-up cab), The House of the Dead (pedestal), Area 51: Site 4 (there's some sort of color issue going on, might be wiring or board, I don't know)

Also have many arcade PCBs, including stuff like Salamander, Gradius II, and Splatterhouse. Also a lot of not-so-rare things that seem to have spiked in price, such as Battletoads and Turtles in Time. The fad collectors have arrived.
