Worst case scenario would be that the battery contacts get corroded. Not hard to replace those...

The crystallized acid itself can be dissolved with fluid like alcohol.
The corrosion will need to be removed since it's nonconductive. Scratch it of with an emery board, dentist pick or whatever you have. Assuming the acid stayed in the battery compartment the worst issue is generally if it's completely destroyed one of the negative springs, just replace them. If the acid had gotten to the PCB and destroyed traces you'll need to rebuild them with conductive pen. Damaged chips may need to be replaced.

If the leak is from alkaline batteries, you can completely remove it with a little vinegar. Dab some vinegar onto a cotton ball or a paper towel or something, and lightly scrub the "battery acid" (which is actually a base, not an acid). The vinegar will react with the white stuff like it does with baking soda, fizzing and then turning into a relatively harmless solution that you can wash away with plain water.

How does this character look?

>>3758217
show perks and traits

9 int is good if a bit overkill.

Better criticals is the best perk because it allows insta-kills when you get it, and because of that high agility builds are all powerful. You can use Endurance and Strength as dump stats because nothing is going to save you from getting instantly murdered at some point in the game anyway.

So have at least 6 perception, 6 luck, and 9 agility. otherwise just do literally whatever you want.

Also Unarmed is by far, by far better than melee weapons.

Most of the important skill checks in the game are Science/Speech/Doctor, and I have absolutely made a character with those skills tagged and 2 Strength and 2 Endurance who instantly killed deathclaws by punching them in the eye.

>>3758217

Trade some Charisma for Agility. Agility is one of the most important stats in the game.

You don't even need to have soldering skills if you buy a supergun

You could have been one of those retarded that shelled out $550 for an omega on top of waiting an entire month for the thing to come in. Then there's those wood neo geos, those are like $750.00

If you have basic soldering skills you can build your own for a pittance.

My current build is a Nordic battle mage, so I'll see how this one goes

Personally I wouldn't mind if these sort of threads became more frequent and organised, similar to the DOOM threads, but maybe that's just me.

>I was wondering, is it okay to use the manual that came off along Zelda I?

I can't believe people are so averse to using guides that even the manuals are seen as cheating.

Not only is it okay, it's actually highly encouraged, as the manual tells you a few important details that you don't learn through normal gameplay, such as burning bushes, pushing blocks, enemy drop rates, and an overworld map.

In facy, in a recent interview, I believe Miyamoto mentioned that the Manual is actually an essential part of playing Zelda 1.


Also, if you';re emulating the game, I suggest you patch the game with the Automap patch, and the re-localization patch.

>I know some of the games get expensive as dick, but I'd like to be able to actually collect the games.

Get a fucking job and learn to budget, they're really not that expensive compared to other costs of regular adult life. Anyone who's not a starving student should be able to afford collecting if that's what they want to do.

>>3755892
But it's not the only thing I like to collect, dickweed. Shit adds up, and sometimes the prices for individual games are ridiculous. And when you compare 70 bucks for Super Metroid with 40 bucks for a used copy of a new game, yeah, it's pretty expensive from my point of view.

>>3755907
>and learn to budget

I'm so sorry that you can't buy everything you ever possibly wanted. And yes Super Metroid will be expensive. It's a collector's item. You're a collector.

Anyways, yeah, I've also toyed with the idea of swapping gates on the TTX controller, but I don't know where to get spares outside of ordering spare joysticks or the bad TTX controllers.

/VR/ only cares if it had good games not if it was commercially successful

is goldeneye with a fuckton of options and less fps

>>3751508
it's pretty good but there's some serious performance issues. There was a remake for the 360 that was great, I think it's XBLA only however. Not the sequel, perfect dark zero.

Better than Goldeneye in the gameplay department, but the storyline in the first player mode is kind of lame and the le X-Files conspiracies and "grey" aliens were dated even when it came out.

Need the expansion pack to really enjoy it, so get that.

I really recommend it, especially if you play only Slayer missile launchers in the Egypt stage.

Then why did you post a picture of a character from a visual novel?

might and magic 6 was the most fun i've had in a long time
fuck these new RPGs where you're guided the whole way through and waste a bunch of time talking to niggers to learn about boring lore

You have 9999999999999999999999 eternities to name a more overrated game than Planescape Torment.

why create a new threat to say something we already know??

just joking, it's a a good title, and challenging

It's fun to ride until your friends see you on it.
Any other Mario game you could pass the controller back and forth on deaths and have fun but not this one

Here's what I got. I don't want anything else.

I have a lot (10-15 depending on what you count, some have been cannibalized) of old PCs in the Pentium Pro/Pentium II generations. Most originally had windows 95 or 98 but many have been overwritten in the intervening decades during my early experiments with linux, BSD, etc.

A handful of older or newer ones too. An HP desktop with an early pentium 4 that I still use for web browsing and file hosting occasionally, some 486 towers and assorted ancient laptops.

I collected them mostly in the early 2000s when many people were upgrading to windows XP machines and throwing out their old ones. As a kid I learned a lot about computers from messing with them. I used to try to keep all of them set up at once in a "computer lab" in my parent's basement. Now they have all been disconnected and stacked in a corner somewhere. Honestly I'd like to give them away if I knew I could get them to someone who would actually use them. I know some of the higher end 90s video cards I have may actually be of use to people interested in certain retro PC games.
