Bump.
j/k
postan again in case some anons missed it in last thread
ITT retro sports vidya that is actually worthwhile and not bargain bin fodder
I know a lot of those
ITT: Vertical or horizontal shooting games where you control something that isn't an aircraft/spacecraft, human, or a robot.
One of my favorite examples is Namco's Dragon Spirit. Powering up the dragon to grow extra heads is very cool, and you can transform into different elemental-type dragons, too. Not to mention some fantastic, very catchy and melodic music.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M78Zusov-nc
The sequel, Dragon Saber, is also highly recommended.
There's a shooter where you control an ungodly abomination that eats the enemies and incorporates them into its being, but I forgot the name.
>>3653393
That's "Chimera Beast", from Jaleco.
steel empire
ITT: nice spritework
I love the artstyle in Dragon Ball Z Hyper Dimension, and I don't even like DBZ.
Although inspired by the manga, it doesn't try to emulate it, looking like its own thing, with nice and comfy colors and beautiful dithering making good use of the SA1 chip.
The game itself is also pretty good, even though the flying battles suck.
Yeah it looks great.
And although not as impressive, I have a soft spot for Super Butoden games, especially 2. Air battles were also great in this game.
Hyper Dimension should have had Butoden's gameplay and split screen.
>>3653346
Butouden gameplay is bad, anon. Slow and clunky, while Hyper Dimension plays more like a real fighting game. Butouden also looks pretty bad.
But the music is excellent.
Was this the last good Castlevania game?
>PAL
>>3653160
For me SotN although I heard thegba titles were good.
>>3653172
There isn't any actual color difference between NTSC and PAL except for distance transmissions. Let's put an end to this meme once and for all, shall we?
If you want, embrace the glorious extra vertical pixels and brag about it (even though most of the times it was black bars), but the color thing just isn't true.
Have a nice day, Australia-kun!
Your opinion on Tanglewood.
foxe is for fug?
>>3653103
no fugs only hugs
>>3653086
I've seen some screen caps and videos and it's safe to say the the art direction is piss poor. The fox looks ok but it, along with the backgrounds and other stuff, lacks detail and fail to draw my interest. What makes it worse is the terrible choices for the color pallets.
The gameplay looks pretty basic nothing interesting or innovative. The whole thing looks more like a proof of concept and less like a real game.
Is rauru the owl?
Owls are not what they seem
>>3653035
Owls arent owls?
Zelda is a Christian, that's why he carries a bible in the first game. The owl obviously represents Jesus.
Here it is in all its glory, straight from the netlist of the original chip itself. A lot of layout work went into this. Enjoy!
>>3653000
>>3653001
ITT games that you and maybe like 5 other Anons here liked
I thought about getting this so many times from the video store when I was younger, but didn't. Is it good?
>>3652991
The "kid mode" is really fun due to items, the "adult mode" is a generic fighter.
>>3652985
what about the 2 jap only sequels?
I liked Virtua Fighter Kids. I wish more people liked Virtua Fighter Kids.
Now that I think about it, big head mode is pretty retro now.
Better than that atrocious SD Toshinden (Nitohshinden).
Yep, that was a thing.
This was such a cool little game. Loved that all the stages had little changes to fit the 'Kids' theme.
Sarah and Akira turning up in Fighters Megamix was rad too.
Is this agressive mediocrity really worth $700 for a console, $200 for a controller and who the fuck knows how much for the game itself?
Or can we admit that most Neo Geo games aren't worth any amount of money?
>>3652778
You picked one vastly overpriced rare game and assumed the rest is just the same.
Yep, Neo Geo carts are expensive as they are, and the market is oversaturated with fakes. I don't envy anyone who collects them. But despite this, the platform has had some excellent games which I don't think need to be listed here, as every month or so a Neo Geo thread happens on /vr/.
Just don't expect the variety of big name consoles. NG never was planned to be a console initially, and even back when it appeared in arcades people complained these was nothing on it except fighting games for most part. Of course today, if you don't like fighters, you have some sports games, some good shmups and side scrolling shooters for it, but don't expect much more than that.
>mfw I learned about the US Neo Geo scene and that guy who scammed everyone by selling bootlegs
>>3652804
>you have some sports games, some good shmups and side scrolling shooters for it, but don't expect much more than that
You're talking about the Neo Geo or the Genesis? Now I'm confused.
Give it to me straight, /vr/
What are the chances we'll ever see the conclusion to the Ecco series?
Annuziata was turned down by Sega a couple of years ago. Is the dream dead? But retro is in, and games long thought dead are rising from the grave like Shenmue. Could it happen?
Did it end in a cliffhanger or something?
There was a kikestarter for Ecco III but it failed.
Hey /vr/. I have a LCD that my folks gave to me for Christmas a few years ago. I'd like to have a CRT in my set-up large enough to play splitscreen/lightgun games comfortably (somewhere around 27"). However, my girlfriend hates the idea of having two TVs in our living room, and likes the LCD for watching television. Should I just save up for the framemeister? I have a small PVM on my computer desk, but it's pretty inconvenient to play lightgun games on. Is there any other compromise?
xrgb mini won't work with lightguns
>>3652614
XRGB is amazing, but the one flaw it's going to have is not supporting the lightgun games. And that's not with just the Framemeister. It's a problem with literally HDTV's because of the vast differences of how it works. I've heard of people trying numerous things, but nothing ever works out. No compromise other than using your PVM, or getting a new girlfriend.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3tBk-LYyzo
>>3652614
XRGB is great, but it's not perfect. Look up the flaws of it. The biggest one to likely piss you off is that if a game changes resolutions in the middle of a game (such as Saturn SOTN menus), syncing the image takes a good 5-10 seconds.
I beat pic related about 3 years ago and i really loved it so i decided to replay it again yesterday, but holy shit this game has been annoying the fuck outta me. Everytime i even remotely touch any heavy rock without the bracelets it starts this fucking irritating textbox telling me that i can't lift the thing. I'm also really getting annoyed fast by how you constantly have to swap items in dungeons, some screens you have to change like three times depending on what you need to do. I don't know how i didn't got bothered by those things before. Anyone else experienced going back to a game and getting annoyed by some things that didn't used to bother you before?
>>3652493
>Everytime i even remotely touch any heavy rock without the bracelets it starts this fucking irritating textbox telling me that i can't lift the thing.
So stop fucking doing that without the bracelet, wtf
>I'm also really getting annoyed fast by how you constantly have to swap items in dungeons, some screens you have to change like three times depending on what you need to do.
Plan ahead better and you won't have to do that so much.
Seriously, just learn how to play wtf
>>3652585
Lol
Op is kinda right though. They should fuck off with the text and touching the rock without the braclet. Its like when you click on a Facebook link without ad block on. We don't need that simulated in our retro games? Or maybe there are some sick fucks who like that kind of thing?
>>3652493
Currently playing this for the first time and you are dead on OP. It was so annoying that I avoided ALL rocks which ended up biting me in the ass because some are still movable without the bracelet. Would have been better if once you acquire the bracelet it's always on instead of having to re-equip it every time. Oh, and magic powder lighting fires fucking confused the hell out of me at first also. Spent hours searching everywhere for a candle to get past the first room in dungeon 2.
Does pinball count as retro?
Read the sticky
>Retro gaming means consoles, computer games, arcade games (including pinball)
Yes.
Welcome to /vr/.
>>3652452
The graphics on your favorite game suck.
