ITT: Revered classics you just can't get into
any metroid game, any castlevania, any resident evil, any silent hill
>>3380148
do you honestly think anybody on the planet gives a single fuck what game you can't get into?
>loan out battletoads to best friend years ago and forgot about it
>start getting back into NES
>oh shit, waddup I own Battletoads!
>call friend up asking if next time he swings by his parents to pick it up
>find out a couple weeks later it was sold in a garage sale along with all the other NES stuff
>meanwhile price for Battletoads shot up due to a retard meme of trolling a pawn shop
I'll probably just bite the bullet and buy the fucker but it's hard when I originally picked it up for a fiver.

Yeah, why the hell is there a thread for chiptune music?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-3x8P0YpvA
One of my favorite early racing songs.
>>3380089
Another one I liked back in the day that came to mind. Sounds sped up but I can't remember since it has been 20 years.

Hello /vr/, what are your thoughts about the Wario Land series (including the spinoffs Wario: Master of Disguise & Wario World)
Which one was excellent and mediocre for you?
You think Nintendo will revive the franchise?
The first is the most memorable for me though I played 1-4 and World (though the 4 and world are not retro).
No, I do not think Nintendo has any future plans for Wario outside of Ware games. The fact that the traditional Wario outfit was an alt in Smash goes along with this.
If we're talking not-retro, Shake It also deserves to be mentioned.
My favorites are still 1 and Virtual.
Also pic related is great.

>including the spinoffs Wario: Master of Disguise & Wario World
NOT RETRO REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I never played a Sonic game , which is the best one to start?
Get the Sega Genesis 6-pak
>crashes when a core doesn't have a BIOS or is otherwise set up incorrectly rather than just handling the error gracefully even though this is supposed to be a user friendly frontend/media center emulator
>no way to easily specify things like BIOSes for cores
>menus are clunky and horribly laid out
>emulation is glitchy as fuck at times
Why does anyone use RetroArch? I'm convinced that its devs viral market the living fuck out of it and that's the only reason it is "popular".
>500 replies from retroarch devs mad as fuck someone tells the truth about their shitty emulator
Calling it now.
>>3374519
I also think it's fucking shit but it's the only way I can play multiple emulators with my CRT at 3840x480 + interlacing shader.
>>3374519
It used to be really buggy for me but it works well now. The menus could be simplified but once your all setup it's good.
(FYI I am paid by the developers to market this free software).
You, yes YOU. Name some of your favorite games from that x-in1 pirate cart you (or your friend) had as a kid.
Mine are Goonies, B-Wings and Sky Destroyer.

Never had one of those but our first ever computer game with a stack of copied disks from a family friend with loads of old DOS games. Jumpman, 3Demon, Spyhunter, Qbert, Zaxxon, were all standouts that I played them all to one degree or another. But Rouge.... Rouge was my jam. I would obsess over that game.
>>3387917
Legend of Kage, Pooyan, Devil World, Milk and Nuts off the top of my head
Used to rent a multicart for the Gameboy only to play Bombjack.
What are some cool text games?
Please no roguelikes, I'm referring to games with a command interface.
Might we discuss not saving screenshots as huge, artifact-filled JPGs?
>>3387870
Look up the adventure games on NES at romhacking.net (or whatever the url is). I'd especially recommend Portopia Serial Murder Case and JESUS Kyoufu no Bio Monster.
The best I've played though is hands down Famicom Tantei Club Part II for SNES.
>>3387870
Although it says "Developed by Beam Software, Ltd", this likely only applies to the C64, Spectrum, and Amstrad versions. The Apple and PC ports appear to have been done by Sierra not in the least because the PC version has the CGA red/green/orange/blue palette which is a Sierra hallmark.
Medieval themed Beat 'em ups
Just finnished Golden Axe and I am in love with this genre, any more like this? No matter how obscure it is post'em
Knights of the Round
>>3387247
Can Golden Axe really be called Medieval themed?

Rastan Saga Episode III
Do I miss something essential if I don't play the first one and start with this?
>>3387018
The 2nd game is the chronological first. I don't think it would really matter.
Timeline wise, 2 happens before 1, but 2's graphics and gameplay are a LOT better than 1. So playing 1 will be a significant downgrade from 2 in just about every way, so if that bothers you, start with 1.
>>3387018
One major spoiler right in the intro scene. Other than that not much.
Playing dragon warrior 7 for the first time, just got to the volcano city and i already feel it'll be a great ride. It's reminds me a bit of earthbound and also chrono trigger. The animation on the enemies is outstanding.
I played many others that didn't hook me lately (grandia, saga frontier 2, secret of mana)... so.. RPG thread i guess? Which other must play RPG games are out there?
you won't be playing another rpg for the next 70 hours
>>3386998
>Playing dragon warrior 7 for the first time
you might as well wait for the 3ds port next month. I've been waiting for years, DQ7 is the only game in the series I haven't played.
>>3387004
DQ73ds is going to have the gay accents.
>Buy a bunch of games from a seller on eBay
>Some are repros
>I know it's against the Terms of Service on eBay to sell counterfeit goods
>I kind of want to fuck this guy over and get my money back on the repros
Should I do it? How do you even do stuff like that?
I don't even want the repros, they were just in small lots of other stuff I wanted.
>>3386338
lol collectorfag problems
Well you could open a case with ebay and see what happens, but if they did their due diligence and said they were repros, ebay may tell you to fuck off. If you want to make a habit of it, they'll start sanctioning your account like any other asshole who starts making a bunch of accusations of counterfeit stuff.
Were they clearly marked as repros or did they clearly look like repros in the listing? Did you bid the amount you bid because you thought they were legit games? If the answers are "no" and "yes" then definitely ask for a partial refund.
What are /vr/s favourite multiplayer or coop games that support 3 or more players?
> 3 or more players
For what purpose
Gauntlet Legends
Power Stone
Top Shop
Crash Bash
Twisted Metal III
i can recommend bro force and lovers in a dangerous spacetime, shitty voltron and gang beats
"Enduro" is a symbolic journey through life via the media of a race. The results are insignificant and what really counts is competing. Of particular importance are the lessons to be learned concerning one's self from the various encounters you experience along the way. There is no victor or loser in this test of endurance the only thing that really matters is that you make a commitment to begin the long and trying trek. This game is then dedicated to all of the "Life Riders" who have stated out on the solitary trip to find their own individual limits. Last but not least, may we sincerely congratulate you on a perfect run.
>>3386018
Woah... makes you think...
So I bought a couple of repro-cartridges for GB, one of them looks like this. If I try to bend it flat it erases the save file, works fine otherwise. What to do /vg/?
Remove the casing and look at it. There may be a problem with the casing messing with the battery.
What were you expecting from buying counterfeits?
Perhaps buy a really cheap, crappy game and transfer your repro's chip to the new casing.
What do you guys think of ICE? I use it to keep all my games easily accessable in the one place. Retro and modern.
>>3385839
Howe do you set this up?
>>3385839
Its pretty COOL...
