>imaginewhen they play games that the entire world is watching and if you lose then aliens will destroy the world
>run immediately into the first pit I see

I sometimes imagine every form of media in the world turning into some sort of alien device that is somehow recording me and expecting me to say my first lines that will determine if they should exterminate/cultivate our world or not. Like imagine the new york time square and all those flashy billboards turn into a camera aiming at me randomly one day and an alien in a deep voice said "Ok, let us hear what the first human has to say to us aliens" and the first few lines I always say are "women are useless"

>>3714665
remember. aliens are from our future and they have no gender, their solution to the woman problem is by combining genders. also, women know they are worthless as well that is why they are trying to re defined genders

142 GB. Most from the Internet Archive.
FM Towns is the the largest part as that's the only CD based system where I downloaded a large set instead of single images.

>>3714590
Around 250 gigs, though MAME, PS1, and N64 account for most of the bulk.

>>3714590
1 gig or less I assume. Most of it is Neo Geo. I see no point in keeping games that I won't play anyway

They pretty good, but beware not to spend more on one than you'd spend on an SC-55.
Spent 50 bucks for mine and has been hooked to my 486 PC ever since. If you're planning to use it with late 80s DOS games and don't have a real/100% compatible MPU-401 unit/card you'll need to find a tsr that will emulate the Intelligent mode of this MIDI interface (most so called MPU-401 compatible MIDI interfaces only support the UART mode). Personally, I use SoftMPU to allow game games like Silpheed, Zeliard and King Quest I to use the MT-32 through my SB16 MIDI port.

Anyway, some good MT-32 tunes:

Thanks heaps, good advice on here is a diamond dozen.

>>3714580
You can just pirate the ROM of MT-32 or any retro Roland device and emulate it... unless you're autist about muh accuracy.

I just use a soundfont that ripped samples from a real MT32, and load it up in BASSMIDI. It's pretty good, but some of the sound samples seem to be glitchy? Then again I was testing it on adventure games that didn't really support it.

>>3714524
You can try prboom via retroarch, you do need to add your own music which sucks but at least you can remap everything

What did this he by mean?

I used to play this game as a 3 year old in 98. Could never even beat the first level. I think I got up to the pit boss a few times but thats it

I beat this game when I was a kid. You honestly just have to have the best gun (personally) throughout the whole game. If you lose it, it's pretty much game over; especially when you get to that tavern? boss fight.

it's the easiest SNES FF and one of the easiest FFs in general
maybe games aren't your thing

how about you save in the overworld before a dungeon and git gud

How retarded do you have to be to fucking fail at Final Fantasy? The punching bag of JRPGs?

First you need a file corrupter, I use the VineCorrupt thing here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1C_OY6M_hXWd1yTlsjNkoXSXipaYBgGoErJwPrJgsb7o/edit
For settings avoid corrupting the first 5000 bytes for NES and 50000 for SNES, it makes them crash
A lower number for step size means more corrupted bytes, usually all you need to do is add 1 or 2 to each corrupted byte to get shit to happen
It really needs patience though, for all the funny stuff you see in a video it usually takes hours to get just 10min worth of funny/interesting stuff

>>3714331
I've seen this program before, and it's pretty neat, but does it work for 64 games?

>>3714338
It does but corrupting N64 games is harder, I stick 16bit era stuff
Making save states helps for getting past intros and level select stuff so always make a couple for the game you're corrupting, then name the save states to output.whatever

You do have a point. Considering all other cartridge based formats are emulated perfectly. Why is the N64 so difficult.

Even ps1 emulation is better.

>>3714521
The N64 is pretty complex and poorly documented I believe. Isn't the Gamecube and Wii better emulated even?

>>3714171
What really bothers me is how bad the n64 itself looks on a modern television. To get it even passable you need the full hdmi mod with the deblur filter, and the console doesn't even support native rgb.

All I can tell you is that Nintendo's pak works without issue

Thanks for telling me that

My general rule of thumb with consoles and accessories is to go strictly first party, with rare exceptions for really awesome controllers/peripherals. I'd go with the Nintendo brand, that's what I have and it's always worked perfectly.

Archeologist

Chakra is godlike on White Mage so maybe White Magic on one?

>>3714027
Calculator.

The odds of an epic final battle where your calculator wipes out everyone on the battlefield but one of your own people, who's near death.

That and it's the neatest job in the game. Actually makes you think a bit!

>>3714027
Equip Armor sucks, especially on Ninjas.

Clothing gear is infinitely better than armor. You can get Twist Headbands, Green beret's or the best item in the game, the Thief Hat is clothing. Armor only gives HP bonuses, and not enough more than clothing to justify the ability set.

Same thing goes with Monk. It's not better than a Ninja.

A ninja with brawling is better than a Monk with dual wield because of it's inherent higher movement and speed, and you can equip headgear which monk cant.

You can just use Punch Art on Ninja.

Honestly, Tactics is so easy taht you'd be better off just powering through since using "cool" setups is almost always less effective.

This game wasn't the same as the PC version, it's an exclusive Starcraft game made for the console, so it was made with the N64 controller in mind.

No idea if it's possible to play it with a mouse through some emulation shenanigans.

I'll take "What are control groups?" for $9000, Alex.

>>3713964
To give you a straight answer, it wasn't bad.
Functional, as I recall. Same with the C&C game for the N64. Had tonnes of fun with both.

Is it as good? Fuck no. Does it work? Absolutely.

Too late.

>>3713807
?

Too late for a Saturn at least. The DC hasn't been memed out yet and is still affordable.

Some additional details: I think the cover was yellow like the pic in OP and it may have come from blockbuster.

Sonic 3's guide is yellow and it seems more likely to have had a Sonic CD preview in it.

>>3713749
Damn. Thanks anon looks like you're probably right.

I could have sworn it was a Sonic 2 guide.
