There's the Supa Boy (unofficial) and the Sega Nomad (official)

There's also the PC Engine GT

All these handhelds are very bulky and drain batteries like a monster

The Nomad is also really heavy

Honestly, just buy a handheld that can play old games, like a PSP

What games do you want to play before you die?

Some of my picks:
OoT and Majora's Mask
Simpsons arcade game
Ghostbusters (genesis)

It dawned on my recently there's not enough time in life to play everything. This has been a sobering thought and I've been trying to play and beat some games I've always wanted to, before I die.

Here's a request for RPG experts. I want to find if there are /vr/ games with a specific mechanic, and possibly where it originated from.

So I'm speaking of the following game mechanic: the more you use a certain ability, the more your proficiency with it grows. E.g., when you attack with swords, your sword skill goes up, and you deal more damage or unlock new abilities; or say, if you use fire magic, your spells become more powerful or you learn new ones, etc. To clarify just in case, it's not like in many other games where you get X skill points and you're free to spend them however you want; but specifically, the only way to increase a certain parameter is to use it (in some way).

Now in the non-/vr/ game I found an example of it (Contact for Nintendo DS), this was taken even further. E.g., when you blocked attacks, your stamina increased. Even if you just ran around, your running speed eventually increased. It'd be good if I found something exactly like it. But even if it's anything similar, I'd be grateful for it.

P.S.: I have read there's something distantly similar to this in SaGa games. Is it true?

Not where it originated, I'm sure there are other games that also did it in one way or another, but Hybrid Heaven uses a pretty complex level-up system in which each of your 4 limbs, your torso and your head can get upgrades depending on if you use them, or if you receive damage. As you progress, you earn new skills depending on how you play.

Interesting! Didn't know much about this game, but I'll make a note about it, thanks.

The Wii is an easy to setup compact emulation box that outputs 240p to your CRT.

The Xbox 360 allows access to a treasure trove of shmups and other late 90s/early 2000s Japanese games with Xbox Live Arcade.

Does the PS3 have any value for retrogaming outside of playing PS1 games in 480i?

If PS2 games counted as retro I would say yes.

Other than that it is decent for PS1 games and emulation.

Not sure if I would go out of my way to use this over a Raspberry Pi though.

Your PS1 games will work in the PS3. Also lots of great classic games on PSN, some of which like Harmful Park which goes for hundreds are just $5 digitally.

How do I git gud at this? I've been playing it since it originally came out like 15 years ago. I mostly win when playing with my friends, but on the internet I suck even at noob games.

I'm playing the campaign now which I never did back in the day, and the third mission of the Joan of Arc campaign is taking me literally hours. I'm not losing or anything, it just takes me fucking ages. And I'm not even playing on hard. Am I doing it wrong?

In AOE2 theres 2 big strategies. The first one is the one most people use: gather resources, upgrade everything and attack. And thats ok for maps where you can map a little and block your enemies, like Black Forest.

What you are supposed to do is spam villagers and make a small army as soon as possible. And keep gathering while you kill/harass enemy vills.

And the other tips could be:

-In earlier stages use boars, bushes, deers and fish as food income when they are close to your TC. Farms are good only when theres no other option in Dark/Feudal age
-Your Town Center must be ALWAYS working. As soon you hit castle, make at least 2-3 Town centers more. In 200 pop maps, at least half of your pop must be villagers
-When chopping wood always build at least one lumber camp for each 6-8 vills. For farms, never let your vills walk more than 2 farms away from a mill.
-Keep ALWAYS a small army and enough buildings in case you are attacked, and keep ALWAYS harassing enemy vills or killing them.

And you will be ready to win online when you are capable to win all the maps from AOE2 campaigns by conquest.
>>
>>3721601

Rush until castle age and don't waste time upgrading anything. Get a bunch of cavaleirs and fuck enemy shit up. Get some bowman and go attack enemy villagers while they're gathering resources. You don't have to kill them, just stall them.

I prefer AoE Rise of Rome myself because AoE II takes too long for a single match
>>
>>3721648
Thanks for this, I mostly get the basics of what you explain. But in this mission I'm doing now it's just a 75 pop and only castle age, so that's what's making it so hard for me. Bringing down fortified walls just with mangonels while sustaining barrage from a castle is just nightmare, and I can't get an xboxhueg army because of 75 pop and I have like 30-40 villagers getting resources because I've depleted gold and selling wood and food at 14 to each 100.
