If you mess with BIOS it will break the console.

>Is it worth it
It boggles the mind why people ask this. As if we some how know how important it is to you and how much you are willing/able to spend.

There are different ways of doing the mod. You can do anything from a simple replacement to dual boot with a switch. You can do it with lots of wires running all over the place held in place by hot glue or you can do it neatly.

>>3969621
I don't know what BIOS is, but we used to have one that would play anything and it was fucking awesome. At the time, PS2 and Gamecube were just hitting their stride of good titles, but we always ended up playing the fucking dreamcast instead.

Only played sorcerer's stone, first when I was a kid, and found it very hard. I gave up and ended up using cheats to get through the game. I didn't appreciate it at all but today I realize it's a great game and I just didn't understand how to not suck at RPGs back then. Some of the best music on the platform imo

They're good.

They're really good. Harry Potter lends itself extremely well to RPG gameplay, I really can't understand why it ended up being a call of duty esque series of games. The adventure games were good too, but these two (and the GBA Prisoner of Azkaban game) had a lot more gameplay, a lot more exploring, and followed the book's story much more closely to boot.

The graphics were amazing too, especially in Chamber. The final showdown at the eponymous chamber had pseudo water reflection effects and amazing sprite work for the basilisk, for Harry, for the sword, for Tom Riddle, it was all done extremely well and I was amazed the GBC could pull it off. Truly worthy of being the last game on the platform, shame I can't find a decent screenshot of that.

Welcome to /vr/ where every thread is bait and emulation doesn't matter.

Well I think the graphics are pretty keen. Comparing it to Space Invaders is a compliment.

>anon jr gives his views on games released before his time

okay cool

Remember when http://www.ebay.com/itm/262963868792 ? Because it's right now.

>>3964613
Nah but this was a flea market. I also paid $50 for the console with cables, a controller and Mario/Duck Hunt. Flea markets are now selling them for $150

>>3964593
I was finding those left and right for less than $20 in thirft stores/flea markets around 2007, with games and controllers/hook ups.

Even my local retro store had crazy good deals for the time. Maybe my area was just had a delayed reaction to the retro craze, there was a plentiful supply.

Wish I still lived there, it was the best town I ever found retro stuff in... I doubt it's survived, though.

Any Puzzle game suggestions for the GBC?

>>3963304
Can't go wrong with Tetris DX.

I haven't played it, but Pokémon Puzzle Challenge is supposed to be good. It's pretty much a handheld version of Puzzle League.

Reminder the the GB Boy Colour is the best way to play GBC games on the go.

What the fuck is up with eyes

Nigga looks like he took Kenshiro's explode head fist 2 seconds ago.

People need to know about this Manabu Namiki classic.

Sorry, but tonight's post is mostly to update people on my trip to the store tonight. I don't have many new pictures but I'll post what I do have.

For the anon that asked about R-Type and Outrun, they are each 2980 yen (after tax). If you're interested in one or both of them please send me an email and I'll give you a shipping estimate.

I also saw Fire Emblem: Mystery of the emblem for 600 yen and Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War for 1400 yen.

If anyone is interested in a Pri-fun I picked up that one from the last thread for 980 yen but if not then I might just hook it up to my Saturn and print some stills.

I might be able to go somewhere else during Golden Week which will be next week but otherwise these threads might die down for a bit.

I don't want to pick up too much stuff until I've sent the things I bought already.

It's a great little system, but I sure as shit wouldn't pay the prices I see on ebay. Just emulate.

>>3947698
Not really. Can't understand why you'd buy an old console like that anyway, the experiences are not contained in the plastic and metal. Emulate Ninja Spirit and Military Madness and move on, more or less.

I'm one of those fags that likes to play on cycle perfect hardware connected to my PVM

I might consider an everdrive though

>>3884527
It's all good OP. What's the hack in your image?

>>3884553
Ultimate Mortal Kombat Trilogy

It's weird, buggy and Russian as hell but it's still worth a look

Probably too moon-runey and menu driven

why would we talk about an obscure japanese only ww2 turn baesd strategy game for the saturn at a level where you feel you've been told about it?

about the second question, really dont know for the reasons mentioned above

>>3983786
there is an english version brought over by wdesigns. iron storm

That was cute.

>modern gamers

This has nothing to do with it.

Retards who can't into perspective and 3D space have always been the problem.

>>3983056

In cinematic horror games built around fixed camera angle you need a uniform sense of direction. You can't keep having to reoriant yourself while try to do stuff especially if there are monsters present.

There not without problems but if the game is built to accommodate them like RE and so many others are then they shouldn't be an issue

>why do modern gamers hate them so much?

Because they expect every game to be a fast paced action DMC combo fest.

What is your definition of forgotten?
