If i am paying that much i wanted it shrink wrapped and complete too

There's quite a few games that are common that cost far too much. Earthbound, Final Fantasy 3 (US), and Chrono Trigger are extremely common games, but the demand for them causes their prices to inflate annually.

Most retro games are pretty cheap though.

>>3546031
Inflation doesn't apply on a used item. Of I bought a regular-ass game for $89.99 in 1985, used it for thirty years, and tried to sell it for $120, it wouldnt sell based on price and inflation alone.

Since when has SHMUP design ever made sense?

Variable geometrey winglet
Utilized for atmospheric manuevers. Due to battle damage it is partially stuck in it's exposed position, otherwise it would be fully retracted for battle on the moon.
If you want to see truely retarded ship designs, pic up any Euro/US shmup.

No, you won't beat Gradius III.

I beat it and can confirm it is possible. Which version are you playing?

>>3545935
How does it compare to that DOS remake/tribute?

>>3545935
The music sounds like garbage. The overall sound design is pretty bad too. It's otherwise a fair remake.

>>3545968
There's a DOS remake?

In retro games. Triace is your answer to different battle systems. Valkyrie Profile and Star Ocean have interesting battle systems. One is made of having to think the order in which you will attack and what attacks you will use to break through some enemies defenses, especially since a lot of enemies can one shot you in this game unless you take them out early or have specific equipment to deal with them. The other is very much "live action" in terms of going to the second screen to do battle, but once you are there you control your character as an action rpg of sorts.

I'd also mention the tales series...but I was never too fond of the battles there. Love the game, but it's basically a 2d kind of fight screen where you just beat the shit out of each other.

>>3545952

Thanks, anon. I'll definitely be giving both of those a check, then.

>>3545930
Tales series, Star Ocean, Xenogears, Paper Mario, try those.

If you have a DS or 3DS, try the Mario & Luigi RPGs.

Who's the red and blue guy?

>>3545868

I think it's Deadpool.

Does Daytona count?

I like NBA Jam: Tournamnt Edition, Sega Rally Championship, Fire Pro Wrestling S: 6 Man Scramble, WWF Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game, and WWF: In Your House for sports games on the Saturn.

I used to enjoy a lot of sports games but there are few I want on the system.

>>3545817
There's an NBA game done by the developer who did the Dreamcast NBA games, but I dunno if the Saturn one is any good.

Model 3 which is worth $150 and easily the best Genesis available.

That is a model 2 genesis.

Those are pretty common games. My local pawn shop had most of those games priced at $2-$7.

comfy wario

Can we all admit this is a shitpost?

>>3545698
But what gave it a retro feel?

but what did he mean by saying it had a retro feel? I NEED THE ANSWERS OP!

>>3545663
> I mean, it's playable
Give it a week.

>>3545663
Minimally, the audio caps need to be replaced. You should probably replace them all. I'd say its a medium difficulty soldering job as far as retro system work goes. If you have a friend that knows what they're doing then beg a favour of them. It's $7-8 for the cap set from console5, a little cheaper on ebay.

I picked a couple up too. One of them I can't get anything other than scrolling lines on the screen and the sound is faint. The other has screen lines which clear up after a couple of minutes powered on but the sound is completely dead.

I'm going to recap this second one and maybe use the first for spares unless it could benefit from the same treatment. I also got a TV tuner but can't seem to get it to accept a composite signal. Do these need recapping too or is it just dead?

Pic is games I have. Any dead wood or notable exceptions I should pick up?

Yes there is a cartridge adapter to play SNES games. Though I have no idea where you would find one in this day and age.

>>3545547
You could just buy a US SNES, cut out the tabs (assuming they haven't done it already), and play Super Famicom games instead.

>>3545560
This. It's much more of a pain to mod the slot of a SFC to fit US games than vice-versa.

2 and 3 play fine, physics are fucked up on 1 and Lost Levels. I'd usually rather the play originals but All Stars is nice for a change of pace sometimes. Plus saving is good.

I prefer the All Stars version of 2 and 3, but the originals for the other two games.

Also, they should have kept the sound effects the same, or at least just the fireball and jump sounds, they don't carry the same weight in the SNES games.

>>3545359
I'm pretty much the same. Originals play better but I prefer the SMAS version of 2.

A new baterry cust less than 1 buck, nigga.

>>3545172
I dont have dx or seasons, so thats why im asking if these bootlegs have the ability to save, or batteries in them to save

I know a guy in college who did this, for pretty much all games. Also, he was a faggot who would read the end of a book first.

>I turn on cheats when I play just about any game made before I was

>>3545147
I'M SO UPSET OVER THIS!

Wait, no actually it doesn't affect me at all.
