Looking for a game.
You play as a fox who doesn't remember what happened last night. You're in a forest, and there's no built in map - the player has to draw the map themself. There are lots of traps and things that can kill you, and you have time start all over if you die. I think it's a DOS game... Any ideas?

>Fall in love instantly
Who here loves AoW? I play contemporary games but usually end up playing some good old AoW singleplayer (mostly custom scenarios). Never had much of a chance to play AoW against others, except my best friend.
Any of you wanna play online?

I've never played it, I was too busy with Heroes of Might and Magic III. Might have to take a peek, though.

>>3736407
I myself never gave Heroes of Might and Magic III a shot, even though it inspired AoW. I'm definitely gonna check it out now that I'm in the mood.

It has a pretty huge following, even here on /vr/ as I'm sure you're well aware.
Get the complete edition, have a go and avoid the HD remake.
Maybe use the widescreen patch and WoG once you're comfy.

I can play this game at the local arcade in the city where I always come for vacation, the city of Mar de Ajó, Argentina. I don´t speak japanese and I can´t find the game on Google by image or description. It´s a little machine that lets you try shots on a cartoon like basketball game to get more coins for the arcade. ¿Anybody know it's english name?

Download the BIOS pack and put it in system folder so you have all the BIOS files.

So what /vr/ games do you want Nintendo to hack online functionality into and charge an obscene price for (which you will glady pay because you're a retard)?

Nintendo should make the switch to third-party already. They clearly don't know what to do with hardware anymore.

Nintendo should stick to handheld systems. They've been pretty consistently solid.

I think it's not retro, fuck off.

While this service is great, I've always been curious as to whether or not it decreases the lifetime integrity of the game on the disc? Will resurfaced games decay sooner than non-resurfaced ones?

FYI label-side damage is much worse than play-side.
Never place your discs upside-down. It won't protect them, quite the opposite in fact.
>>
>>3736301
This. Some discs seem to be more susceptible to it than others, I think it has to do with the method the label is printed on. But if you have scratches going through the label side of the disc than it's likely the data itself has been damaged. No amount of resurfacing will fix the problem, unfortunately.

For FMV games like Dragon's Lair, Space Ace and the like. What is the best way to play them besides LaserDisc players? How is the DVD version?

DAPHNE is the emulator. The DVD versions are good too. Due to some licensing crap you have to own the DVD of the Digital Leisure ones to emulate them and I've never gone to the effort of figuring out how to hack it but there are quite a few that are abandoned and free to play.
>>
>>3736224
Do the dvd ones work any dvd player? How does it work on say Xbox or PS2?

Bear with me here
Arguable "retro feel" factor aside, I think the most interesting thing about classic games, the one thing that can't be replicated, is the way devs HAD to wrestle with huge visual/computation limitations to create worthwhile experiences, and sometimes they actually used those roadblocks as starting points to develop gameplay and scenario concepts.
Pic related is the universal example; got a shitty 3D draw distance? Make a game about a spooky town shrouded in fog and darkness.
So what are your favorite examples?

That always was a cute one, but I wouldn't say it's what I had in mind (this is more like clever padding, or a workaround)
It can be little things like this other one; in my mind, the Enix tech guys were messing around with the dev kit and they ended up with this weird effect and they called everybody going all "what am I even Mode 7-ing lmao"; then some scenario guy came up with the idea of setting part of the gamein the concave surface inside a planet

You have 20 seconds to explain why your GameBoy isn't backlit and biverted yet.
>muh how the developers intended
They surely intended that you kill your eyes while playing
>muh stock GameBoy, muh value
What are you? A dirty reseller? Also it's a GameBoy, they aren't exactly rare.

This. Except I do have a spare one and I still don't like altering my consoles. Besides, the Light Boy provides additional magnification.

So the following games have ports/remakes on the PSP
>Star Ocean (pic related)
>Valkyre Profile (lenneth)
>Lunar (silver star harmony)
>Final Fantasy 3
have any of you have tried them? should I just emulate the originals instead?

Of those I only have played VC and it's practically identical to the original except it's in widescreen and has some expensive-looking but soulless cgi cutscenes.
Also Star Ocean 2 is a respectable version, people say the voices are corny but it's just like a saturday anime voice english cast against bad 90s game voice cast.
Also Tales of Eternia was released on PSP but I guess it's PAL exclusive.
>>
I always play the original first.

I didn't know they ported the DS FF3 to PSP but they ported it to fucking everything so I guess I'm not surprised.
It's probably the best version but significantly different from the original in obvious ways.

Look for autoplays on youtube, usually that's what people will be uploading when they're no good at the game but they wanna demonstrate the music

This is the best controller ever, I got a PS4 and hooked it up on my PC, now I got in the mood to emulate some good old games. The D Pad is so fucking good. Been playing Bloodborne, so maybe some Castlevania or GnG is in order.
What controllers do you use to emulate?

This app is cool. You gotta be fast because resellers buy shit quick but good deals are on there. Got 6 disc only gamecube games all mario party and zelda for $20 free shipping. Just yesterday I got pokemon white ds for $4 free ship. Any other places good for finding shit. I found craigslist to be worthless.
The app is Mercari if anyone is interested. If u sign up use please use code RVMPVN to give my gurl some credits. She told me about the app. I even found selling my games easier than selling on vidya related sites an apps.
