Saturn is better than the N64 and Playstation X.

64X was okay, but I prefer the Satan

>>3914828
def 64

i can think of like two saturn games you couldn't just play on the playstation

Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei on Super Famicom is a good intro to the series. It has remade versions of Megami Tensei I and II:

Thanks. Would I be missing anything not playing the fc versions of 1/2?

The old first person dungeon crawlers are just stat games. It's numbers battling numbers. Little or no story. Can't see anyone until you're right on top of them. Just navigating through a big map. Don't bother.

Super Famicom

top isn't gba, so wtf is the point of this thread

Original platform. The answer to this question for every game ever is always original platform. Save yourself the next dozen times making this exact thread and just write it on your monitor: "original platform."

I did not like Doom, but 1 was the installment that came the closest to doing anything for me.

Heretic.

I thought the difficulty was a piece of cake and I ain't even good at these kinds of games. Zero's glitch slash destroys bosses in seconds.

>>3934136
I think it gets exactly the amount of praise it deserves.

It's commonly accepted that the only really good X games are 1-4. 3 gets more hate than I feel is justified, much more than 4 does.

5 and 6 are just OK.

7 is absolutely terrible.
8 got praise because it wasn't as bad as 7.

>>3934136
>The Zero campaign is a thrillride of dashing and slicing things, and the difficulty is quite high without going completely overboard.

I have played this game at least 40 or 50 times and I absolutely love the X series (even X6) and I honestly can't agree with you on this. Maybe my experience with the series has ruined the difficulty for me, but I honestly find X4 to be the easiest of the series by far.

It'll be around forever.

It's a personal favorite, the first scary game I ever gutted out and triumphed over but don't play the NES version if you can play the Amiga or Genesis ones (even though I own it too)

why?

why does silent hill on ps1 cost so much jesus

Aconcagua is THE middle ground between point and click games and survival horror games. It's not really a horror game, just a survival game but if you're trying to bridge genres for her and get her into something like say Shadow of the Comet or Prisoner of Ice that's the one or if it's not horrifying enough maybe the original Clock Tower

>>3933702
What about I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream?

It's just an Australian PSX. Region locking and all that.

PC
4 times bigger field of view, better everything

You need this to get it running on Win7 tho.

Not playing it.

Seriously, if you want to play one game you'll have to play the entire series.
I hope you have time and will for that.

>>3933536
Not OP, but I've played the whole series. I quit after Defiance though. I haven't bothered getting my hopes up for anything else to come with it. They should've released Dead Son under a different series title, but whatever.

I don't necessarily dislike the black borders but that's just how western design is in general, Genesis had the same kind of stuff, Playstation has the black border, sega saturn also has a border.
I think westerners think it's easier to market something if it has a distinctive design/template or something.

It always looks so busy and generic. Tons of badly placed icons just everywhere on the entire box. The Super Famicom stuff is so clean, colorful and on point.

I feel really bad for the Rushing Beat series. They had the worst western SNES boxes.

The Konami titles got a improvement, though. Contra Spirits and Akumajou Dracula have the fugliest Sufami covers.

is yoshi's island still forbidden due to sfx chip licensing issues?

I'd like to see it on a store shelf even one single time, if possible.

If the rumor is true, the way the NES Classic was managed will ensure that no SNES classic will see a consumer's hand without first going through second tier resellers. It will be near impossible to walk into a store and outright buy one.

Motion blur, higher polygon count, better textures, smoother animation.

YES, CEREBRATE?

Probably FedEx Express. It won't be cheap, but it'll get there quick.

Be expensive to ship them and that's a long drive in a rented U-haul. When I moved out I packed all the games first and left a bunch of clothes and shit behind. Priorities, man. At the very least let your dad know that shit is worth money and he shouldn't just toss them.

>>3931619
I did get him to hold off getting rid of them, but he's still anxious to do so.

I opted to take my record collection with me instead of the video games. Much heavier, but they take up less space and I've got more money's worth of records than I do video games. Had to at least bring some of my autism on the road.

>>3931617
Thanks for the suggestion. Money's not too much of an issue. I work so many hours that I don't even have time to spend the shit wages I make, 'cept on the weekend.

>>3931558
I've never heard of anything like that before, but my only guess would be that a electrolytic cap spewed it's juice.

>>3931558
Bump, for intrest.

>>3931558

trying to think of what it could be...perhaps a metal in the system reacted with chemicals from the plastic of the container after being sealed for so many years?

regardless, i definitely would consider plugging it in outside to test first before powering it on indoors.
