Cool. Are there more games to be revealed? I wish I didn't sell my 3DS.

Why did they pick III over IV?

Something 4chan can relate to.

>>3502186
story has plot holes
its a tad bit too easy

>>3502186
Too easy.

Not trying to shit on it, phenomenal game.

>Enemies has varieties

Aren't a lot of the enemies the same just with different color palettes?

There are basically three main /vr/ games in the series: Ghosts'n Goblins, Ghouls'n Ghosts, Super Ghouls'n Ghosts. Try the first one. If it kicks your ass, try Ghouls'n Ghosts instead, which is considered the easiest of the three.

Ghosts 'n Goblins is the first game in the series, you should start on that one. Play the arcade version instead of any home ports, as they tend to be bad (NES in particular). Next is Ghouls 'n Ghosts, it's slightly harder and enemies are more complex but you can aim your lance in four cardinal directions now, and also can wear the magic armor which lets you charge up your weapon. Super is arguably the weakest of the retro trilogy but still worth playing, it added a double jump but removed the ability to aim your attacks. When you get to it, play it on Saturn as that version seems to have the least amount of slowdown. The GBA version is also worth checking out as it has a unique remix mode that references all three G&G's. There's also a Wonderswan game but the series' main designer, Fujiwara, had nothing to do with it.

It's more complex, but the play enhancements make it easier and more fun overall.

Turn it on

You need to insert the Black Books VHS tape into the NES

Check the catalog first, you fucking moron.

That topic talked about characters, clown.

Are you talking about >>3491029? That's a completely different topic.

>>3501648
Try 1. Either the SMS Power patch with activated FM or the Phantasy Star Collection for the Playstation 2.
1 has a big advantage over 2 since the dungeons are first person and overall the graphics are nicer despite the MD's bigger prowess.

>>3501582
You can play Gameboy games on GBA, making GBA hardware retro, similar to asking what the best model of PS2 is to play Playstation X games on them. Not that hard to figure out, really.

Playing Pokemon Gold.

Are there any sites that sell GB/C games with newer batteries installed?

Warcraft 2's compositions were effective but fairly generic video game background music. The C&C franchise was pretty original in the way it combined goofy 90s rock and techno into a strategy game. I find the tunes from C&C and Red Alert very memorable.

Nothing pissed me off more than dying to this.

Op's are now censored on this board automatically. Some people are able to slip past it using invisible characters, but you're going to start seeing a lot more of it.

I think you're nice if you're looking to save room. Personally I prefer the real cart over the ever drive.

I bought a Mega Everdrive and it was probably one of the best investments I've made. It all comes down to how you like to play your games though.

>>3500381
N64 v3 is one of the best investments for a new N64 owner.

It's basically the price of:
>Mario Party 2,3 and Smash Bros

and gives you access to the vast majority of the library. N64 emulation sucks dick, and some games are just striaght up incompatible (like gauntlet legends)

Pretty much a great ivnestment for everyone, including shelf collectors.

I loved this game, shame there wasn't a nes port.

>>3499782
Holy fuck, i used to play this when i was about 4 or 5, i loved the giant ghost underground.

>>3499735
What would you say is the best version of Montezuma's Revenge, OP?

>>3499474
>remaster
Fuck no.
Original one works completely fine for me.
Remaster doesn't work on my pc at all.

Played Seeds of Evil, had fun, didn't finish.
Played Dinosaur Hunter, had a bit less fun, didn't finish.
Lots of getting lost on the levels. Its fine if you played them before and know where to go, but navigating them for the first time is hellish.

Nice weapons.
I really wish there was a knife in the second one. While Warblade is fine, fuck Talon.

Also, to little dinosaurs in the Seeds. Sadness.

I'm reading the comic right now
Neither I can blieve it was a comic.

>Remaster doesn't work on my pc at all.
Something wrong with your PC, then. The remaster is excellent.

Anyway, it's an interesting series. Deeply unoriginal, but it kept things fresh. My pet favorite is Turok 3, but Turok 2 is the most polished. Turok 1 is better than Quake, which it happens to be a ripoff of. The TUROK game doesn't really count because it has no connection to the other games.

A different team worked on the MD version. During fourth and fifth gen, Konami had the Castlevania IP spread around among various teams. IIRC, Rondo of Blood on PC Engine and the Akumajo Dracula remake on X68000 were developed at the same time.

>>3498928
Yeah, turns out it's the same team that worked on Rocket Knight and Contra Hard Corps.

>>3499262

According to mobygames, only one of the programmers worked on both games.

Nakazato (director, designer and writer of Hard Corps) only worked on SOTN, Dracula X Chronicles and The Adventure (GB) as far as Castlevania goes.

As for Bloodlines' level design, I don't know... the first level is good, because it copies the first level of Castlevania 1, but the rest of the levels have a lot of inconsistent design.

And what are the expansions like? I've not played them.

>>3498790
fix for rogue spear, black thorn ecc for windows 10 when?

Great game and still my favorite shooter. No need to make it a general.

There's an online community for this game and patches to make it work on modern hardware. I highly recommend playing it.
