Funny how I didn't appreciate Super Mario World when it was originally released. I thought it was "lame" and "not cool" compared to Super Mario 3. Was also disappointed in how quickly I was able to defeat Bowser.

But then, several years later, I finally got it. It doesn't offer the same variety of Mario 3, as in say, the number of worlds each with their own different theme. But it does perfect its craft and brilliantly executes what it's meant to be—a precision-based, vivid platformer filled with exploration elements.

>>3217293

Which version? NES or arcade?

>>3217327
>H.E.R.O.
Yes! Missed this gem back in the day only to play it decades later. Was addicted from the moment I started playing. Bombing those walls never gets old.
Have you ever finished the game? I'm curious to know how many stages there are.

>Maybe you had this impression because of the graphics? They were pretty much the only thing sub par on SMW.
I'm not sure what it was. But a lot of Reagan pagan babies also suffered the same issues when first playing Super Mario World.
SMB 3 had explosive airships and seemed more "in your face" with its action elements. SMW was more polite and focused on exploration.

Super Mario Bros. 3 is an action game with exploration elements, while Super Mario World is an exploration game with action elements.
I was just too young to appreciate SMW for what it was, at the time. But looking back, I now feel that World is the better game, and has aged much better.

I think Super Mario World is gorgeous. What makes you think the graphics are sub-par? Just curious.

Has there ever been a Mario game that looked bad? Even the modern ones look good. Frankly, they have a formula that's hard to fuck up, and have been good at keeping it intact with each new game without just making them exact copies of the others.

>>3222087
The Wii games that are 2D but with polygon graphics are pretty ugly to me.

>>3222093
nigga those are like the only good mario games since mario 64

>>3222093
I think they look fine, although that particular series is getting into a rut. The DS, Wii, and Wii U games are more of less identical. Of course all of the other games they've been doing at the same time have been pretty good.

>>3222096
I don't like the look is all. They look cheap. The WiiU ones are better looking.

I haven't played them so I'm not talking about gameplay, just grafix.

The ending was awesome. Anything other than a woosh sound effect zoom in to your face and a cheesy nah would have been played out. Finding out your character took all the shit the many and shodan threw at him with a shit eating grin is just perfect. No other ending would have been nearly as memorable as finding out the silent protagonist was actually a 90s action hero who was having a blast killing robots and mutants.

>creator
there is no "creator". This game was made by a team, like any game (well, aside from the ones made by bedroom coders). "Auteur" theory of game design is fucking bullshit, games are too big, clunky and volatile products to describe with a single person.

Everyone says "Metal Gear this, Metal Gear that" - but we've seen thanks to Babel, Portable Ops, Ac!d and Rising that it's very possible to make a good Metal Gear game without Kojima - and we've also seen from Boktai, and those miscarriages he called "Castlevania" prove that Kojima is nothing without Yoji Shinkawa on concept art (i.e. most forgettable art design in history of Castlevania - Judgement was bad but at very least memorable) and Kojipro team backing him designwise- and telling him when to fucking stop.

If you let him have his way, he'd make a bad CGI-animated interactive movie, David Cage style, with incomprehensible plot about mechas, psychic powers and nanomachines with bullshit action scenes and women with PTSD in tight catsuits, bikinis, or even naked, constantly having sex or getting raped, and then getting killed by having a bomb implanted inside their vaginas (during the sex/rape).

Kojima is a good writer, and a good team manager, and even a good lead designer - but he's not a god.

My point, back on topic, is that the same applies to Schaeffer - he's not a god, he's just one man. As a part of a good team, he can help make Monkey Island and Grim Fandango. If you suck his dick over and over, he will scam you out of money for a mediocre adventure game, and do the first real hardcore Early Access scam in Steam history by actually pushing out an unfinished game to a "release".

>>3217327

>>3228408
Monkey Island is more Tim's game than Ron's. Ron wanted to make a generic pirate adventure using his SCUMM engine, Tim and Dave Grossman wrote placeholder text that was funny and changed the entire tone of the game.

The one game Ron made was Maniac Mansion, with his SCUMM engine, and interaction was a step up from text parsing games, it suffered from all the same shit most of those games had. Deaths, unwinnable states, puzzles that were obtuse and not in a funny way, red herrings that weren't obvious. Generally awful. A product of it's time, so it can be forgiven, but awful.

For me, it was Starcraft Broodwar. I used to play that game online for like 12 hours a day. It was just so absolutely perfect. Favorite is 3v3 Hunters, or some of the korean made non fastest maps.

Isn't the way Panel De Pon is designed lead to literally endless matches if both players are good enough? Like, to the point where Japanese players had to use Score Attack mode to play competitively?

SoR2 is great on the 3DS. There is a super casual easy as combo mode and its fuck as fuck. You blast through the game tho for a quick play when youre short on time is fucking neato.
Havent tried Outrun yet on the 3DS tho ive bought pretty much most of the Sega 3DS classics. Fucking love M2.

>Also why the fuck isn't Rocket Knight Adventures on there?
Just use the MegaDrive emulator. Runs perfectly.

Hands down one of my all time favourite games, if not THE favourite game. Spritework, the jazzy soundtrack, the way random encounters work, the Master system, dragon transformations... I could go on but I won't.

Breath of Fire IV was pretty decent too but it never quite topped III for me. Shame we'll probably never s

>>3247568
Finger slipped, sorry. "We'll probably never see another proper entry to the series" was the full sentence.

>>3247575
why? That's a pretty bold claim, what's your reasoning?

>>3247568
This game just frustrated me because I could never figure out how dragon transformation worked.

>>3247580
Capcom, basically. We know their track record with beloved series of late. We got Breath of Fire 6 this year... but: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqXc4C6rGiI

I mean they very well could release something closer to what I love the series for but my faith in them is pretty low. I'd love for them to prove me wrong though!

>>3247673
Yeah Dragon genes can be confusing your first playthrough. But I think part of the fun for me was figuring out which combinations resulted in what forms.

Probably part of why Breath of Fire IV fell flat for me. I missed that experimentation with the genes.

>>3247757
Is that supposed to be single player or online-esque? I'd be down for a proper BoF online.

>>3248810
From what I can tell it's single player. But you can recruit an army of up to 150 AI controlled partners that just follow you about.

Honestly I'd be alright with a BoF online if they handled it well. Certainly enough interesting races over the games to work with in character creation. Classes/weapons based on characters from previous games, etc etc.

inb4 Dragon Clan gets tranformations and Woren gets Weretiger and that's all you ever see.

>>3217265
Broken Age is a great game. It went through some stupid development but it's a solid 9/10.

I like it more than Civ2 which I feel introduced a lot of weirdness and poor aesthetic choices.

>>3254647
I have Civ 1 and Civ 4 permanently installed. Civ 1, because it's the essence of Civ, and Civ 4 because it feels like an homage to it, and was the last Civ before they introduced major rule changes

>>3254653
Exactly how I feel about Civ 4 myself, they're the best Civilization experiences out there I'd reckon. One of my favorite things about Civ 1 are some of the little touches that were missing later on, like how if a civ lost its capital it would be split into different civilizations and things like that.

Civ II feels bland in comparison, and it might just be because of FreeCiv turning it into a more generic seeming experience, and Civ III has scary looking leader portraits so I don't touch it.

>>3253692
No, you are not.
It was my first import Mega Drive game, and I'm still in love with it.

When the FUCK is N64 getting added to mednafen?

>>3255274
why?

>>3255276
N64 emulation is horrible.

>>3255280
and including that horrible n64 emulation in mednafen is gonna change things how again?

File: smashbros.jpg (110KB, 620x426px) Image search: [Google]

110KB, 620x426px

>>3255276
for n64 netplay, of course

>>3255289
since you still don't seem to get it: mednafen is not a magical emulator cure. Many of the non-psx cores are just existing emulator cores modified a bit to fit the interface. That's it. The only N64 emulation you can reasonably expect from mednafen is "what others do already, or worse". So you're better off using an existing emulator

>>3249992
Honestly, I liked it, and I'm usually pretty cynical about these things. Yeah, the second half was weaker but it was still a decent game.

>>3217552
OoT is a flawed masterpiece but it's definitely aged better than a lot of games from that early-3D era. Games like this basically wrote the book on how to make a 3D action game, there weren't many precedents set.

That being said, I feel like Majora's Mask took what OoT did and improved on it in every conceivable way.

>>3247190
No kidding, but overrated =/= bad

>>3255274
we're getting sega saturn first which is way more important

n64 has no games

>>3255284
Because mednafen cores are cycle accurate.
