BOI, HE BOUT TO DO IT
( I am at the Osamu Sato live show in Shinjuku, there is free booze and it's his birthday)
Shit that's awesome. Everytime I go to Tokyo I hope there's something awesome like this going on and there never is. Take more pics + report back.

Is this really the best 2D Zelda game?
Nope, that honor goes to Adventures of Link.

Nah, the Oracle games were pretty disappointing desu.
Did this piece of shit series really only become popular because of violence and graphics? Street Fighter 2 was fundamentally a better game and actually cared about becoming a serious competitive game.

>Did this piece of shit series really only become popular because of violence and graphics?
Yup.
>>3922093
>only become popular because of violence
Yes. Not even graphics, just violence (and characters).
The early games ARE moderately fun though, but only slightly and only for a little while.
The modern games are much better. 9 and X(L) are pretty solid games.

Who do you play as the most?
Princess Toadstool exclusively. The rest are objectively trash in every conceivable way because they cannot fly.
Depends on level, but usually Princess for long-range jumping power. Luigi for some levels, Toad for others, Mario never.
Sort of related question: why does the Luigi-on-Birdo's Egg meme is based around Luigi specifically?
Say... a genie tells you to pick 5 games to save.. and every other videogame that existed is erased from existance and everyone's memory but yours.
which games would u save and why? would u keep your favourites, or good representatives of each genre? perhaps one of each console to save said consoles?

I would only keep terrible video games so the genre dies.

I donn't know, guys. Maybe I'm stuck in the past. But I play mainly old games just because I'm more familiar with them and just because there's overwhelming number of them.
What do you think? I know some of you guys play modern games, but I can't just getto play them because there's so much unplayed left.
I play retro because I enjoy them more than modern games. And if you feel overwhelmed know that there will never be any more "retro" games coming out
I prefer playing retro games since the new games these days seem to have a bigger focus on story and graphics than actual game play.
I play games that are fun.
Post em' if you got them.

What's the best handheld for emulation?
Depending on the generation of consoles to emulate and in general.
What are the pros and cons of each? Are there any hidden gems that aren't well known?
Are hacked PSPs still relevant? I use one and Id would say its the best for /vr/ systems
>>3902856
Doesn't the PSP have problems with SNES emulation?
>>3902816
There's gorillions of them out there nowadays, the GPD Win is probably among the best simply because of Windows. But even tho I love mine, i'm not a big fan of the form factor, check, I'm personally thinking on getting a JXD s5800, but i'm not sure how powerful it is, i'm sure that since it's Android it should at least be able to do up to PS2 just fine.
Overall most emulation machines now are Android base, but you still have things like the GCW Zero, and Dingoo consoles for 8 and 16-bit emulation or homebrew games, and the Dragonbox Pyra is coming out sometime this year hopefully, which IMO is a hair better than the GPD Win even tho it's ARM and it doesn't run botnet 10.
>>3902856
They're still relevant but there's far better devices out there at this point.
Who is your favorite retro game creator?

Why are arcade cabinets still so expensive? It's just a glorified shell and controller set up for a little raspberry pi or something
then built it yourself faggot, if you want things done they cost money. If you think it is too expensive, come into the market a compete
>>3930417
You're actually complaining about that when it comes with two setups? Tons of places charge that much for a single.
>>3930417
Low sales volume
So guys, i got a hacked ps1 early in the week, and i was wondering if you guys could give me some recommendations, i'm currently playing trough games i remember from my childhood, but i would like to know some hidden gems and weird games.
Also i'm using an old tv i had laying around for retro purposes, is it a good tv or is it trash?
Google "v recommended wiki".
Knock yourself out.

not quite related to your post but a couple months ago I got a presumably modded PS1 that plays jap and burnt games seemingly perfectly but for whatever reason, PAL games have a number of problems
on my plasma, the burnt PAL games are stretched and show the top 3/4 of the screen, and a real one is green, full of dithering and also shows 3/4 of the game starting from the upper left corner
on my old tiny CRT the burnt game suffers the same problem but the real one just rolls the image
is it something with the games themselves or the TVs?
Do you guys know the name of this game?
Yes, it was very easy to figure out by performing an image search.
>>3929937
I know the name of this game, yes.
damn I wish I could help
What's their best game?
Probably one of their KoF games.
Metal Slug 3
>>3929919
Samurai Shodown.
>you're not a true weaboo until you know all these three's names.
>>3929450
That's a relief
Snap, Crackle and Pop?
Like without their hats obviously
Draco, Arle, and Carbuncle. Easy.
