Should you play the best RPG on the PS1? No shit

It's pretty good but definitely rough around the edges. You won't be happy with disc 2.

why would you even consider apple?

bad thread

"Smart"phones and tablets (normie devices) are the LEAST authentic way to do retrogaming.

Grandia and Lunar. The NPCs will always comment on some grand event (like killing a boss or rescuing someone). Even stuff that happens very far away reaches their ears, and you can go back and talk to them to listen to their opinion. It gets a little annoying towards the ending, and they don't give you any stuff, just words.

Shut up, I use Earthbound to make up for the fact that I didn't have an awesome '90s american saturday morning childhood. I'm not even american, but in my head I am!

>>3686248
I guess you prefer DQ-like NPC's that will only tell you where the stores are and MAYBE a little hint on the lore? I'm kinda tired of those, but thanks for the bump.

Was the (You) worth it?

>>3686263
I think it might work if we lie to our children and let them watch adventure time and stuff but never let them find out about the internet. Then we'll let them play Earthbound at 10 years old, and they'll be able to appreciate it god damn it.

>>3686135
Back before the internet was really a thing, a lot of us drew our own maps for games on pads of graph paper. That was just a part of the journey for me and something that I really enjoyed. I hated to ruin anything for myself by looking things up in strategy guides, but you should play however you want to play with whatever free time you have.

Don't let anyone tell you you're cheating or doing it wrong, but I would recommend only looking something up if you're absolutely stuck. Keep in mind that with games like Metroid and Zelda in particular, part of the original experience was bombing and burning every spot to find all of the secrets.

Use this thing called "paper" and "pencil"

thanks for the tip anon

>>3685758
You posted my favorite system; press turn.

But I prefer turn-based

TB, but I thought ATB was also considered TB?
anway I prefer them becuase they usually spice their battle systems with some gimmicks

Tales of Destiny has a great battle system.

Bump, please help guys.

>>3685602
Best or best value? You can get a chinese Super Everdrive AND Mega Everdrive for less than the price of an SD2SNES

>>3685987
Thanks for replying.

Looking for quality over price. If the quality difference is big I am willing to pay more. I thought maybe some people could tell me about what they use.

I understand that it's flawed and clearly rushed but it's still my most favorite game of all time.

Remember this place?

In one of the houses there was a man who said "come back later and we'll put that beard on you" or something like that.

But you never meet him again. I was very confused and searched for him forever but couldn't find him

Wait with these threads until another Esperanto translation comes out. Otherwise those fags cause nothing but trouble.

If anyone has any questions about pc98 emulation there's probably a few people around here who can help.

The Mizzurna Falls translation will be released this year, it easily beats all of those that you've mentioned. Open world proto-Deadly Premonition for the original Playstation, heavy with dialogue, sidequests, NPCs with their own schedules, good plot, etc.

Got any rare games?

You have a lot of games and you will make a lot of people happy by selling those but I have to ask you one question... will you miss these in the future?

>>3682160
Lots, off the top of my head (these are all boxed) snow bros, conkers bad fur day, final fight 3, harvest moon, megaman 7

super mario rpg is probably his best work tbqh

He sucks. Not a real translator.
The original Final Fantasy VI was not a cutesy game. Kefka was not a cutesy character.
For example in OP's pic, in the original Hiraganja it said:
"Mother fucking piece of shit! I will murder them! I will murder them mother fuckers! Fucking bitch ass whores!!! They have brought great dishonor to the Japanese culture! Fucking whores!"
That's why I only play literal translations so I can play games they were meant to be played.

LEL

i don't like platformers or sidescrolling games

It took me over 20 years to sit down and actually play Super Mario Bros 3 from start to finish. I've made it half way dozens of times before that, but I always ended up quitting for some reason.

I've always wanted to get into old pc wrpgs but they bore me to tears every time. Too much freedom and no real idea of what to do next. I need to be railroaded like in jrpgs.

I have a snes and a genesis connected to a pvm. I have an issue with each console requiring a separate adjustment in the service menu to fix the horizontal center. Is there a way I can resolve this issue without having to go into the service menu every thing I want to switch between consoles?

>>3677451
no. Each console have their own sync timings that will shift a bit.

>>3677451
It's not too hard. Once you get the muscle memory down, it'll only take you a few seconds to open the menu and make the adjustments.

Although, I bought a switcher with a build-in sync stripper last spring, and ever since then all of my consoles seem to be on point in terms of horizontal sync. Might be unrelated, but I definitely don't notice as big of a difference as I used to.

Sadly its caps are failing and it will stop booting soon. Recommend returning it while you can.

Here is a shot from the opening cutscene of Eternal Blue (original disc), there do not appear to be any artifacts. It seems that it might be the disc, though I don't see why a scratched disc would produce those artifacts.

>>3689671
Can't I just recap it myself?

> It kind of rubs me wrong that Koopa is part of your team
More of an "enemy of my enemy is my friend" situation.

>Koopa

You triple-nigger, there is no character named "Koopa"... Bowser is the American name and King Koopa was the Japanese name...

Although it's now just standardized as "Bowser, King of Koopa" to make things easier.

And yes, the game is amazing but pretty easy. The only guy you can really lose to is Jinx and Culex the optional bonus bosses.

Totally worth playing, even if it is relatively easy. But there are still tons of secrets and Easter eggs that you can miss in just one play through that it is easy to pick back up again. And you can always try with a different party.

No way any of this will ever happen.

weren't they featured in sega hard girls? I'd actually like another season of that.
