Might&Magic although Britannia is probably more fleshed out.

I never got the appeal of Ultima. MM all the way.

M&M only really started to build a world with M&M6 revisiting the world from HoMM2.
Before that you're always thrown into a new setting with relatively little interaction. Most plot is limited to the manuals with no meaningful relation to the events of the game. Even Alamar as a recurring villain remains shallow and vague.

On the other hand Britannia becomes your second home.

DK 94

Jurassic Park

There are 3. DK94, Links Awakening, and Metal Gear Solid if you count the GBC.

Nothing can run Dreamcast games without any problems. nullDC is good but a lot of games still look kinda fucked up.

Well it runs it as well as any PC can

These guys are the ones who've made Dream arcades for years, they know emulation and building products, they aren't some newbies who think they can get stuff done.

OC WALLPAPER DUMP

Yep, it's the worst game in the series. Also Haunting Ground(though not retro) is better than Clock Tower 3.

the first two games (SNES and PSX) are good, the rest suck
haunting ground is good

>>4177959

Haunting Ground and Hell Night are better Clock Tower games than the actual Clock Tower games

Go for the dreamcast version

kek

N64 desu

>>4177845
then get pc version

But Outrun isn't a racing game, it's a driving game

Also it's better than Rally and Daytona

Outrun > Rally > Daytona > the rest

But honestly what >>4177672 said "Outrun isn't a racing game, it's a driving game" so it shouldn't count.

>>4177593
>What should I buy to play?
A flashcart.

>>4177593
the NES library hardly needs introducing to most people, play all the marios, zelda 1, contra, ninja gaiden, contra, tetris, kung fu, all the castlvanias especially, and personal favorite palamedes 1+2

>>4177593
>place validate my existence for buying a toy.
lol. I guess you'll need to stick to games that don't require a controller until you get one of those.

SLIDE! SLIDE!

>>4177312
Yes, jump. Right off a fucking cliff for reminding me of this atrocity.

extra life

It's stupid to call it a 1up in anything other than a Mario game.

>>4177194
This.
It was always life/lives for me and everyone I know.

>>4177194
Several non-Mario games use 1-UP, but I agree that extra life is the second most acceptable.

What I find to be the cheapest and best solution for bigger cartridges is to get those pull-out drawers that people store cassettes and vhs tapes in. For gameboy games, theyre literally so small you can just put them in plastic cases and stash them away in a drawer or something.

I went the autism route. (Pic isn't mine.)

Just make sure to edit your spines. The inconsistent company logos pisses me off, and I had to reprint some because I just printed without thinking.

>>4176527
Because it's a lot of work for something that's fairly niche.

If you donate money you can probably get shmuplations to do a commission or something.

Just another reason to learn Japanese.

Foreign material wasn't valued like today. And some of those works are too niche and/or require a good understanding if the japanese language that weebs obsessed with anime will never have.

if it's after market then whatever. if you rip apart an ags-101 to backlight an inferior console youre autistic.

>well i mean you have to mutilate the inside of the case
>and it still won't close again
>and the power switch stops working
>and the screen ends up being the wrong size anyway
>but hey it's backlit so
Just frontlight it.

The whole modding meme is some frankenstein shit.

Battle Garegga, Namiki perfectly balanced the FM instruments and PCM Samples in that game. Just listen to Underwater Rampart.

Sooo many, but this always held a special place.

>>4176178
Such a nice, comfy song. Shame the game is a masochistic exercise in punishment and self-flagellation. Fuck shmups.

>>4175369
Many of the early Unix distros had a /games directory but I think these were games designed to be played at a (text) terminal. They had stuff like: Rouge, Zork, Trek, Hunt the Wumpus, Chess, word games, etc.

SGI workstations were used extensively in the entertainment industry throughout the 90s. Including game development. They were used for rendering, motion capture and maybe general software development.

I seem to recall game source code being discovered on used SGI workstations.

Turok maybe? I don't remember exactly.

As a (general) rule workstations are for work, but that work might include producing entertainment. They're not targeted for playing games. That's not to say they haven't been used for games.

Quake was made on an SGI, I believe.

>>4175431
Wasnt it a NeXT?
