To make the OP clearer, I've posted a screenshot of Bubble Trouble which is an online flash game.

I'm looking for classic arcade (japanese?) games with the same gameplay. More recent entries are welcome. I've tried "The Bug Butcher" but it sucked.

>>4191381
super pong on snes for sure

Yeah, same thing happens with the Saturn version. IIRC the developers of the Saturn/PSX version weren't the original devs.

>>4191369
Both the PS1 and Saturn ports were designed for PAL regions. The 60hz versions are fucked up.

I think Earthworm Jim 2 is unplayable period

They're set in the same universe; Boombots as well, but that one is full-on 3D, not digitized claymation (still has a bunch of animated cutscenes, it's worth it)

Twisted metal small brawl ftw

Use the shield.

Vigilante 8

I believe it's only partially finished in the translation, but this link is supposedly the game so far.

Was it Kyodai Mahjongg?

Was it Shanghai 2: Dragon's Eye?
I had it growing up and loved the music from it.

>>4190829
okay so there are these colored blobs, and they look kind of fuzzy and you solve very basic math problems in addition to basic puzzles to help the circular fuzzy things move forward -- I think they had eyes and shoes

saw someone post the CD art on /fit/ of all places recently

>using the word noob
what are you 13?

Yes, a game will lag if the code asks too much to the CPU.

A lot of NES games lag for instance. Trying playing Contra Force, or Mega Man 3.

People use say it's because the "console couldn't handle it" but that's not exactly true. In most cases it's due to poor and/or unoptimized programming. Devs back then either didn't care or didn't have the time to make everything lagfree.

>>4191892
Back then, slowdown wasn't bad if it wasn't constant.
A bit of slowdown here and there was tolerable, even arcade games had them sometimes.
It's not really comparable with emulation lag, lag is constant, and not as noticeable.

A Link to the Past randomizer. Scrambles item/chest/heart piece/etc locations. Nice twist when you've played the game half a dozen times already.

A few good Super Mario World hacks are The Second Reality Project Reloaded 1 and 2 and This Hack Needs a Name.

The later is like the original SMW in a parallel universe with very creative new world themes and switch palace colors.

OH SHIT. I played this in a furniture store while my crackhead mom was buying a new couch or mattress or some shit. I had forgotten that memory entirely! Thank you, kind Anon. I'll pour one out for you.

There's a game similar to that one I still am searching for to this day.

The hardest ones are the hanglider missions, you need to calculate each movements and watch the radar and the warm air currents that lift you up. On the harder hanglider missions, micro movements are important, you need to slightly tilt the stick to make minimal movements or else your trajectory will fuck up.
Have patience and learn from your mistakes, it's totally doable.

>>4190589
thanks for the reply anon! im specifically looking for help with unlocking the birdman levels if you remember that

>>4190603
I think the birdman level is the first one that gets unlocked, so it's the easiest one. You need gold medal in all 3 first missions (hanglider, gyrocopter, jetpack).

Go suck Adam Smith's dick and shove a copy of Atlas Shrugged up yer arsehole.

More on topic, I like the romanticized feeling of people smoking in old movies. Recently rewatched Alien, and sure enough, they were smoking on their stupid spaceship. Makes for a nice atmosphere though and fits well with the gritty feel of the movie.

But boy, am I glad smoking is banned in most places where I live. Shit stinks and it does give you and the people around you cancer. I like seeing it in movies and videogames though and I think it's kinda silly to banish tobacco out of all media. If you're not half-braindead you should realize that they do not represent reality. Same argument as with graphic violence. Watching Rambo or playing Quake did not incite in me the desire to go on a bloody rampage.

I hope it's not bad. I literally just bought it at a Retro game Expo on Saturday

>>4190169
Its neither. Its a decent game but there's nothing amazing or totally shit about it.

I almost puked when the combat started. what a pile of shit. the game should have been like landstalker.

X1 to X4 are all great.

X3 has some flaws but you should check out "Zero Project" romhack, it fixes some of those flaws, makes level progression less linear if you want to acquire everythig, and lets you fully play as Zero.

Avoid X5 at all costs.

>Are there any I should avoid?
Mega Man X7 but it's not /vr/. Out of the /vr/ ones X3 and X6 can feel a bit underwhelming at first but aren't really that bad. Latter in particular grown on you over time.

>How are the other X games?
Pretty good.

>Any I have to play?
No one can force you to play anything but I'd recommend at least giving X2 and X4 a go.

>>4189849
>Avoid X5 at all costs.
What's so bad about X5? Apart from Alia sometimes interrupting the gameplay with her useless unskippable messages and Zero being overpowered compared to X (like he is in all PS MMX games at least until you get all X's upgrades) I through it was pretty good?
