Let's sit down, relax, watch some retro video game TV Commercials, and post some of our own.
There's still plenty of time to argue about which used 30 year old TV brand is best, who's preference is correct, and why everyone is a faggot.
Mine is an Atari commercial featuring Phil Hartman, or as underage fags know him, "That guy with the voice."

This one features Paul Rudd.

it's legend of zelda you autistic plebberino
I want to play Sonic on my phone. Apparently, there's an official port available. Is there anything to be gained from playing the official port instead of an emulation?
>>3556514
>I want to play Sonic on my phone.
Stop
>>3556514
The phone port is in widescreen.
I have super mario all stars for snes. Im trying to play smb3 but when i select it and the save state it wont let me play when i finally get to the screen. X and Y go back and every other botton does nothing. Its really frustrating
Try start you fucking doober.
try the konami code it always works
>>3556679
Start doesnt work. Ive pressed literally every botton. I went back to smb2 for a while then came back it it suddenly worked. It happens every once in a while and i wish it wouldnt

This game is just BAD. You either play through babby mode or autism mode. It's nowhere near as fun and balanced as RE2.
I agree with you OP, game needs a fucking normal mode.
If anything "hard" should be called "normal" and the game lacks a real hard mode, in the likes of RE2's Nightmare difficulty in the PC version Dreamcast versions.
>>3556347
>how bout not being a total pleb
But seriously, hard in re3 isnt that hard, you know you dont need to kill everything. Save some ammo, you get plenty to get around and killing Nemmie every time.
I think youre wrong about the enhanced ammo too.
>>3556389
Agree, whould love a mode where enemies are a little harder and faster and less ammo around..

love Europlatformers now
Any other good Europlatformers?
>>3558067
Every western made platformer sucked shit and was a hollow attempt to cash in on the Mario fad.
Best Mario?
Or just best mario on gameboy classic?

But DK94 is seriously as good as it gets.

Very unique. Best Mario on the GB.

> dude camera lmao
> dude collectathon lmao
> dude water temple lmao
Shit thread but I'll say my "best think" anyway.
SM64 is great for the first half of it or so. Which is pretty short for a game which could be beaten in just a few hours. After that it just starts having much less ideas, poorer implemented, less inspired cluttered level designs and so on.
I guess the devs simply shoved the worst/unfinished levels they had to the last portion of the game. It feels like it needed a bit of work IMO. Like turtle shells which are a fucking bitch to control but last for mere seconds.
It's ridiculously overrated, but it doesn't mean it's a bad game. It's too short though. More like a demo.
ITT Retro RTS games that you enjoy
Pic related Bokosuka Wars
Does anyone have any thoughts on the First Queen series?
I got hooked on the ost of the SNES version a few months back, but the gameplay always looked like a clusterfuck in videos.
Currently playing this, just grabbed a copy for 7 bucks. Good times!
>>3556243
>that you enjoy
>Bokosucka Wars
This is probably a stupid question, but how do you heal in this game? Potions only seem to be for magic and there's not nearly enough food to make up for my lost health.
Seriously I find nothing online or in the manual about healing.
>>3556235
food is the only way to revive health.
perhaps lower the difficulty, if there is a setting. i can't remember on the dc version.
>food is good
>OM NOM NOM
>use potions to kill death
>RED WIZARD HAS LOW HEALTH
>>3556235
eat more chikin
>>3556235
In the DC version, food is the only way.
In the 64 version, you can buy it for 1000.
InDark Legacyyou can buy it for 50, and 100.
If you need food badly, just grind the first level in the Fire Mountains.
Earthbound.
What does /vr/ think of it?
>>3556181
It's a good game
Pretty great.
It's overrated and overshadowed by it's successor.
It is worth athleast 2 playthroughs in one's lifetime tho.
So far I have
Playerchar - sorcerer
Jaheira
Aerie
Jan
Minsc
Who else should I get? Or should I swap anyone should I add keldorn or anomen?(god i hate anomen) My party doesn't seem that efficient right now.
>>3556085
I really want to add keldorn, but is it useless having that many clerics?
>>3556085
Personally; Viconia or Haer'dalis. Viconia can be found in the Gov't district about to be burned at the stake and is a great cleric with high dexterity. Haer'dalis involves a quest that starts at a theater (I forget where it is) and you have to do the quest to get him, he's a bard which is quite useful.
Do note that Viconia imposes a -2 to your reputation when she joins due to being a drow, and that putting her in the same party as Keldorn is a bad idea.
Keldorn in his own right a powerful character to have, and really good for taking down tenacious mages that pile on defensive spells since he can cast Dispel Magic. Like I said; keep him away from Viconia (and evil party members in general).
A Shadow Thief quest leads you to Edwin, who is a rock solid wizard.
>>3556123
well im just wondering. Because minsc is using two handed sword, and jaheria is using shield and club (but she can't engage, because she's casting insect swarm at the beginning of a battle) And minsc just can't take the hits.
I feel like I should be getting a designated front liner. Unless I want to give minsc a sword and shield which for roleplaying purposes doesn't feel right.
you are now aware of the current year
Those are old games and consoles, they even feel old. That makes sense that they're 20 years old, almost feels longer.
The point of this shitty thread is?
>>3555975

really? 5th gen still feels like yesterday to me, and I'm only 29
