How Retro is too Retro.
In other words how far back into retro gaming can you go before deciding "These games are just too old".

For me I can play for ZX Spectrum and still have fun.

Can someone explain to me why SNK allowed Crystalis to be remade on Game Boy Color when they were pushing the Neo-Geo Pocket Color as a competing platform? Would've made more sense if they had just made a God Slayer sequel for the NGPC.

That's a good question, and I have no answer.

I'm not gonna complain though, I though it was a pretty decent port.
>>
Game Boy color was a pretty popular platform that many people owned
>>
>>3818794
NGPC was discontinued in a barely a year after its release, and before Crystalis was released.

Plus the game never got a sequel, it was pretty old… Don't think SNK treated it like a very important IP. Which is not surprising coming from a company that ran iself into the ground and stuck to a 15 year old arcade board till the end.

Even though it can be enjoyed without knowledge of Japanese as a simple flight sim, as a Macross fan it would be really nice to see what kind of story it has going for it since it is apparently canon to the saga.

And of course, we haven't had a good Macross show since 2004, so I certainly don't have any faith for that new one coming 2018....

Are there any NES-era RPGs that actually have any semblance of depth or strategy to their combat system?

I love the NES aesthetic but I've been hard pressed to find any RPGs on it that have actual gameplay beyond "spam the standard attack command until you need to use a potion".

There's gotta be at least one oldschool RPG with better combat than that, right?

I don't know what exactly you're expecting from NES era rpgs, be happy if you manage to find one that isn't a dragon quest clone (that's why I played FF2, at least it was something original for its time)
Sweet Home is okay if you're looking for a challenge
Madara and Radia Senki are novel because they use a real time combat system
In Samsara Naga you can raise your dragon
try the Ultima III port as well

SNES had it too, but their version really sucked. That's not fanboyism; there really were a lot of things fucked up about that port.

Actually happened to me, twice.
First with a 3rd party "Performance" N64 cart, then with a 4 in 1 Action Replay Saturn cart.
Eventually bought an official N64 memory pak and Saturn official memory cart and so far they're fine.
Now I use the AR cart for pseudosaturn. The 3rd party N64 one doesn't seem to work anymore.

You can use GCMM on a hacked Wii to back up the memory card and copy the data on it to an official memory card.

The Soviet campaign was so great. Loved those fmv mission briefings, taking orders from stalin himself. They were so cheesy and self aware. Just a game with so much heart and soul. Also really appreciated how command and conquer always put hot chicks in their games just because.

Aftermath expansion pack was nuts too. Really loved those tesla tanks.

We used to play the game on lan at my friends house where he had two computers hooked up. We had custom maps made and everything with loads of the gem ore so you could make crazy shit fast. Used to be such a good feeling sending out a fleet of planes to destroy your buddy's base.

>"This is very much Castlevania done in the vein of Game of Thrones," Shankar said of the project, noting that Warren Ellis, who wrote the series and is on board as a producer, "added so much depth to the material."
>"[The series is] going to be R-rated as f***," Shankar said of the series' level of violence, as many entries in Konami's game series were rated M for mature due to blood and violence.
>Shankar's discussion of the series' more adult aims reconfirms a 2015 interview in which he said the show would be "America's first animated series for adults."
