Bring me his ... his ear!

>>3805872
5>6>4. Highly recommended.

>>3805872
cons:
>simple story, sometimes lack of direction on where to go next
>high encounter rate
>somewhat obscure secrets (mostly getting many of the espers)
pros:
>fast paced
>best mechanics of any FF game
>tough but fair
>probably the most fun of the SNES FFs

Miles better than FFIV, and depending on how much do you value story, better than FFVI

i didnt like the job system because the high amount of choice it gave me made me fear that i was fucking up my characters and i couldnt decide which jobs to use and i am kinda paralyzed about playing this game. on top of that, the job system takes away all the uniqueness of the characters. locke being a fast thief and cyan being a juggernaught mofo etc gave the characters a personality which FFV obviously lacks, so it is hard to care that much about the characters or advancing the story. also the story is bland and boring.

help pls i want to enjoy this game

It runs Earthbound, which can be $200, plus many other games.

>>3783971
There are only a handful of games it won't play, probably less than 20. Of those, the only ones that I can think of as being worth playing are super Mario rpg, star fox, and yoshis island – if they're that important you can go out and buy them.

That said, since the sd2snes uses a programmable fpga, it's possible that sa1 and super fx support could be added in the future.

>>3783982
FPGAs have a pretty limited amount of programmable units. I wouldn't hold your breath that it has the capacity to do what it's currently doing and emulate two more chips with the current hardware.

>>3808523

no, it's widely accepted as one of the best action/rpg's on the NES

>>3808526
This.

Wow. That is a fantastic looking sprite.

The NES really does have some great, and horrible, sprite work.

Usually when discoveries like this happen after a long period of time, speedrunners just create a new speedrun category.

>>3807720
What are you talking about?

how the fuck do you speedrun dk64

>>3806539
I've just amassed a collection by being a collector for a long time. I buy what I like when I get an opportunity to get it cheap. For example I only have one N64 but I have four Saturns.

>>3806539
>different versions of the same console
lol no.

one of each console is enough for me.

In before someone posts a flashcart and saying "my entire collection," all the while thinking they're SO FUCKING CLEVER AND FUNNY by doing it.

I personally like N64 more than PS1. The graphics are not pretty, but the games are top notch thanks to rare.

>>3804660
Probably not, since it's actually a good console, regardless of whether or "normies" like it or not.

However, the PlayStation is still superior.

>>3804660
It died once people realized there are only a handful of games worth playing on it.

He started pissed off and ended pissed off. it's like pottery.

Good luck

>Do I seriously have to make my own map with graph paper and a pencil
Yes.

All you have to know is the path from the entrance to Murphy's Ghost and the path from the entrance to the elevator.

This is my go-to.

>>3800538
Don't know why this is always posted. This isn't that hard when you have the right technic.

>>3800294
I got stuck at this part and dropped the game for several years as a kid. Once I finally replayed it and figured out what to do I shit my pants in joy.

Still love the hell out of this one.

But they weren't.

Good point, well made. Thanks for your contribution.

It's often said that no emulator is as accurate as the physical device. In my experience, it has to do with a very, very slight lag between a button press and when that press is expressed in-game. Very, very, very slight. It's generally imperceptible excepting only a handful of instances that I've noticed or unless you're really looking for it. One situation that comes immediately to mind where this lag is highly noticeable is the Yoshi races in Mario RPG. I was fan-fucking-tastic at them when I owned a physical console and cartridge but emulation's inability to note button presses with the same immediacy as hardware makes it nigh impossible. Another is Track and Field 2 for NES. With certain parts of the game, I used to affix a plastic ruler to the controller and flick at it. Doing this hits the buttons super quickly and results in the best possible time, faster even than turbo controllers. Emulation, however, can't handle that set up. I've only noticed this issue in a few other games that aren't springing to mind just yet. While emulation inaccuracies (including lag issues) are certainly noticeable if you pay close attention for it, it's not nearly as bad as some people here make it out to be and most games run just fine.
All that said, unless you're a stickler for whatever reason or just have an attachment to owning and playing the physical hardware, emulation should be fine for most of your gaming needs.

tl;dr version
>autism and nostalgia

it's better than emulation.

Yuzo is the man.

These days I'm impressed by the work of Ryuji Sasai, especially in Rudra no Hihou.
