His games are fun, and his design is simple.

Good memories, and mascot to Nintendo. That's like asking why Dora is beloved

>>3409448
Mario games don't need character to make them good. Stories were never really important to his games. Sans Mario RPG.

>Nintendo arcade cabinet
But Nintendo were an awful arcade publisher.

we use these at work for large format displays, unlike most embedded pc's they have recent processors, fast enough to run wii u games if you like but still small and cheap as fuck.

no, a raspberry pi 3 will not be able to run dreamcast/ps2 well, unless you're talking about a pretty limited selection of games. do some research and decide where you want/need to draw the line.

a pi 3 is cheap, so you should be able to buy one and experiment with its capabilities.

because the western version was botched. Heavy censorship (although that's the least important problem), changed the story and thus it didn't make sense and they upped the difficulty to insane levels without bothering to balance things up, so it really becomes very monotonous and tedious. I also should mention that most people didn't like the music, Koshiro was in his minimal techno phase and it didn't set well with people accustomed to the house music of the previoius entries. But the core play is excellent, probably one of the most dynamic and fast beat em ups ever. Get your hands on some translated Bare Knuckle III rom and enjoy.

>>3408747
Yeah I noticed the music was a massive step down from previous entries. I grew up playing SoR and just picked up SoR2 and fell in love with it. Was wondering if the third entry would be worth picking up. May as well grab it anyways, I usually dont play Genesis games for the story. I like they added a run feature but the slow walking of the first two games kinda felt like a trademark in the series and made things a little more intense.

I'm running it Win7.
I'm using the Steam version and it ran perfectly without having to install any mod or anything. I think it's the same for the GOG version.

Apparently it used to be broken but they fixed it.

Only thing I had trouble with was fiddling with the settings, I have to play in software mode or else I get terrible latency and weird mouse control. I'm fine with that though as I don't like the smoothed out look of early 3D acceleration.

Clock Tower

Also why is modern pixel art so fucking ugly, can't they hire real artists?

>>3407850
I disagree, I think OPs pic actually looks really great for the resolution they're drawing it at. Maybe you'd just prefer they were using a higher res?

That's how hipster devs think NES looked.

Daily? Since when? Now?

Anyway, I don't want a remake. I want new games. Remaking most PS1 era games doesn't interest me. They're fine as they are, especially Spyro as the graphics aged just fine and everything else is good too.

The first game is to bizarre in hindsight. Spyro sounds like an annoying ten year old and there's no one to talk to. It's probably best to tell newcomers to play Spyro 2 first.

>>3407703
Only 1 2 and 3 are worth playing. The non /vr/ Spyro games will let you down.

>>3407801

I disagree but that's not /vr/ relevant

Has he ever tried? Honestly kinda sounds like he might be parroting a meme opinion/complaint.

I played the RE games as a kid in the 90s and didn't have a problem with the controls, surely an adult can figure them out.

>>3407561
That was my argument
I remember being a kid and just learning in about 5 minutes if I could play it as a kid surely he could?
right?
Also unrelated question the Director's Cut Version of RE 1 is the best version? or is it the Dualshock?

How old is your friend? I'm 32 and refuse to play any new shooters because they totally fucked up the joystick controls. I spent my life used to using left thumb to look and right d pad to move and then after xbox and ps2 shit went full retard ass fucking backwarda for no reason. I still can't get used to it even on the rare occasion I try to adapt.

Not retro.

It's fucking nothing.

Who even plays Hungarian translations? You'd think the five Hungarians interested in retro games would know several languages.

You don't notice it with games you're good at?

It may be harder to notice with games you aren't that much used to play, although it can still be noticeable, but if I play games that I've been playing since my childhood and have like muscular memory with it, I can easily notice the lag when I'm playing on an LCD on retroarch on ps3, for example.

Not too sure if I ever felt lag on a PC emulator using a CRT monitor though, I thought for the most part, it worked fine. I think the main problem may be the HD screens.

>>3405076
>
If you don't know how to recognize it, you may just think that you aren't as good at the game as you used to be


It's real even if you can't notice it, other people can. And it may be affecting your gaming whether you know it or not

>>3405076
Latency from emulation is a meme.
It really depends on the screen you're using.

Using Sonic 3, my favorite childhood game, as a reference this is my experience:
>Emulating on my PC feels the same as the real thing.
>A Wii on a CRT feels like the real thing
>A PSP/3DS feels like the real thing
>A Wii on a big LCD TV has very noticeable input delay

>>3404237
If you're using Firefox the "DownThemAll" addon solves your problem completely. If you're not, I'd look into getting an FTP client and doing it that way.

>>3404237
> How do I mirror a collection that originally was an FTP site and has since been mirrored countless times?

Truly an impossible task.

How many fucking gigs would that even be?
