What's the best way to emulate Abe's Oddysee - and pre-rendered games in general - so that it doesn't look like shit?
Presumably on some sort of VGA monitor
>>3329698
You don't. Emulation is shit
You set up RetroArch, download the beetle/mednafen PSX core and put on your CRT autismo shader of choice.
In a few years do the same but replace core with rustation.
Who else is picking this up when it comes out?
I'm getting it so that way I can play my snes on my PlayStation 3d display.

Enjoy that garbage.

I am. Just need to finish building my time machine to go back to 1995. You kids are funny.
So I've been wanting to get into the Ultima series, what are some Ultima games you guys would suggest? Recently I've been playing Ultima 6 on SNES.
>playing gimped console games over the pc releases

>>3329752
Yeah why would you even...
Also ultima 5 is my favorite.
I don't know the specifics but some of the console versions are considered the better
Suggest me a good laptop for playing Dos games?
It needs to have a nice quality 640x480 backlit TFT that can play 320x200 games 2x without ugly scaling.
Good Sound Blaster Pro emulation.
Preferably Pentium 1.
get an old ass thinkpad
>90s laptops
>TFT
Color laptops all used PVA back then, they switched to TFT in the 2000s for cost reasons.
>good SB Pro emulation
>laptop
In fact just wanting a laptop from that era is asking for a lot because very few working examples are left so good luck finding one. Laptops lead a harder life than desktops...
Easy. You can install DOSBox on any current laptop and play all the games you want without the horror of adjusting CONFIG.SYS files. ;)
Any tips on getting good at this game? I recognize there are combos to perform and that you can deflect your opponent's projectiles by doing a combo at the right opportunity. Is there anything else I should be aware of?
Honestly, the game is just pure reflex. As long as you pay attention to what's coming at you from your opponent, you're going to not be shit.

Well, one more question. Is pig girl a joke character?
>>3329515
Nah. All the characters are balanced pretty well, excluding the hidden ones.
Which retro games could be easily adaptable for mobile gaming (or were already ported)?
Pic related: in this game (Factory, the Industrial Devolution) the only control is clicking on the good spot at the right time (apparently someone did made a mobile adaptation, but it seem to be shit)
Smartphones and tablets (normie devices) are the LEAST authentic way of doing retrogaming.

All point and click games work amazing on an ipad.
What are some retro games where I can kill capitalists?

I just got this for PS4. It feels kinda input laggy. Is that normal?
I also have Megaman Legacy Collection on PS4 and apart from the occasional slowdown (just as it happened on NES) it doesn't have the input laggy that MS3 constantly has.
The Mega Man collection had a fairly well-documented fine tuning process to get it to run right on modern consoles/TVs. Neo Geo....well, to say the least it's nothing like that. Whether it's on Steam or consoles if you buy a Neo Geo game all you get is a rom playing on a shitty Chinese emulator with zero optimization. You really shouldn't support this stuff, they'll keep doing it.
>>3329294
Fuck. Obviously I didn't know that. Lame.
SNK Playmore are generally bad/lazy when porting.
I feel like it's appropriate enough to ask here so what are the best ways to find local garage sales? Looking at craigslist, checking for ads in the local paper, or just driving around hoping you find one?
It depends on where you live.
If you want to beat the faggot resellers at their own game you watch Craigslist and Facebook and the paper then show up at those houses way before the sale opens and bug the shit out of them. If they specifically list video games you can basically guarantee some dipshit will do this it's just a question of which one gets there first. Unless you're the only dipshit in your town then "lucky" you.

Easy games?
I get discouraged when I die and have to go back more than a couple times. You guys might get that "fuck you game, you're not going to beat me" drive but that's foreign to me.
Samurai Pizza Cats
Any particular genre or system?
>>3328861
This one is easy and quite fast to beat. Just make sure to change the difficulty settings.
If you feel like playing more of it, just grab the sequels (the third game is bit harder, but it shouldn't be a problem).
Hey, so I bought a copy of Castlevania off eBay and I received it yesterday. I began playing the game and the gameplay was a bit off- it was impossible to climb stairs! However, I could still throw items using up+b. I opened up the cart and upon inspecting the pcb, I saw that none of the chips had the Konami logo on them... another eBay listing for Castlevania showed the chips and they said Konami on them, and the pcb looked very different than mine. I don't have pics, sorry. Can someone confirm that it is fake, maybe showing a picture of what the chip should look like? Again, none of the chips have the Konami logo on them. Any help is appreciated.
No pics, really? Do you actually want to know if it's fake?
Wait, lemme guess, the cartridge is haunted isn't it?
Bin it, game is garbage anyway
So... i got some really crappy games so i could replace the shells on some of my games, pic related is what tyey look like after leaving them all night on a solution of windex and laundry soap.
Clean them with a brush and thats the best i could get.
Does peroxide rreally work on those stains?
Yes.
Did this really require a thread?
Also try oxy-clean or a combination of the two.
>>3328848
peroxyde diluded in water or just peroxyde? i only have a 450ml bootle at home.
>>3328870
The problem with peroxide as a mild bleach is how thin it is and that it needs to be acted on by air and uv (sun) light to really do the job. You could brush the peroxide on it over and over but professional lighteners (RetroBrite, blonde hair "dye") thicken it into a paste. There are recipes online.
Are Psone rpgs too easy ?
Which one is the hardest ?
>>3328812
Is there such a thing as a hard rpg? It's more a question of how much grinding is required. Xenogears and Dragoon threw in those QTE type thingies but they're always either relatively easy like those two or end up being pointless like the ones in Vagrant Story.
RPGs and especially JRPGs appeal to gamers with little skill and that's a fact that sort of came to light naturally there in the late 90s but there's no need to be ashamed of it now there are almost no single player games that require skill.
>>3328812
Most are easy, yes. The Saga Frontier games can be pretty tough as grinding won't save your ass. I've heard people complain about Hoshigami's difficulty too, though I haven't played it.
And finally Star Ocean 2 has multiple difficulty levels to unlock and the harder one is a real bitch.

Ken's an American in the game, bruh.
Also I believe white blonde guys is a general Japanese stereotype of Americans.
