Came across a banged up Jaguar and the guy only wanted 50 bucks for it. He said it didn't work. Took it home, got it booted up (waiting on an RGB cable for it) and it works fine. He just wasn't putting a cartridge in.
What are the top games for this thing? The top 10 lists are all fucked. I know Doom, Rayman, AVP, and Iron Soldier.
Also, why is the D-Pad such a piece of shit? It feels like brittle plastic and is really shallow.

Uh... Tempest 2000.
And that's about it.

Welp, that's it, that's the top games. Oh and Tempest 2000. The Wolfenstein port is also pretty neat.

Atari Karts. But it's like 200 dollars.
And Wolfenstein 3D.
I think there is a homebrew scene. You could look into that.
It wouldn't be such a massive failure if it had any good games to play.

50 bucks is a steal. These things are getting expensive for some reason. 200-300 bucks on ebay in my country and it would be practically impossible to find it locally/flea markets.
Too bad the thing has literally no good games to play though.

what
>>3873764
Wolf 3D has an enhanced port. 60fps, fullscreen and redone textures and sprites.
Super Burnout is a stellar motorcycle game if you're into that.
It's surprising the Jag never got a port of Rise of the Triad. It ran Wolf 3D beautifully and Doom acceptably, better than the 32X, Saturn or 3DO.
The ROTT engine would have run fullscreen 60fps vga resolution and gicen the Jag a good network multiplayer title. Also a fully textured "3D" game besides Doom that didn't run like soft dog turds down a playground slide in a Georgia Summer
>>3873764
Doom port is meh, but it comes close to the real thing
>>3874975
On the Jaguar?
Wht the fuck
Definitive, good games on the Jaguar? Unfortunately, they're expensive, because it has so few good games. But here's the complete list:
Tempest 2000
Doom
Wolfenstein 3D
Rayman
Atari Karts
Super Burnout
Iron Soldier
Alien vs Predator
Some iffy ones are
Power Drive Rally
and Flashback
>>3875107
I'd put Atari Karts and ABP as merely decent.
I'd add Zero 5, Defender 2000 and Raiden to the good list.
>>3875256
Wats ABP
>>3875107
The original Worms got a Jaguar port.
Pinball Fantasies is good fun *if* you like that genre in the first place.
>>3875272
I think he meant AvP
>>3875035
Doom port is actually pretty good. No music though
Why are all the good jag games so damn expensive
>>3873791
Which has a DOS port that is pretty good, so... It's useless
>>3875272
>Alien Bersus Predator
lol
