Oh so like we have already been doing.

Based Sega

>>4071970
>Altered Beast
>Comix Zone
>Kid Chameleon
>Phantasy Star II
>Sonic The Hedgehog
Good list, two system sellers (OG & post-SNES), two "hidden gems" and the RPG with the best chance of hooking casuals (also my personal favorite)

>>4071978
All of us but theoretically this will get a bunch of normalfags playing the same games at the same time and with some kind of social element with cloud saves and like maybe achievements the app can post on your insta-thing or facespace or whatever I presume?

Just tried Comix Zone
I tried using a joy con and had nothing but 5 second lag, and the game isn't even emulated right, the sound is off and there are a ton of graphical errors.
>>
>>4072396
tfw it lags a lot in my 3 y.o. moto G
>>
I picked up Phantasy Star II and I hate everything about it but I can't pull myself away.
>>
>>4072404
I have a Samsung J3 Prime and it has the problems I mentioned. It's a phone that was released this year so it's the app itself
>>

So reason enough to avoid this like the plague

>>4073108
Why the fuck I would want to do that? Everybody has been playing those games for decades, there's nothing left to talk, nothing new.
Even here we almost don't talk about those games.
>>
What controller support are they talking about?

Blackberry Priv here. Slight lag in gameplay and audio tearing for days.

>>4074254
ugh hopefully that's just a glitch

c'mon sega don't fuck this up the way you always do with everything that could be beautiful
>>
>>4074263
They still make hardware, but run on Android's OS now.

>>4074271
>c'mon sega don't fuck this up the way you always do with everything that could be beautiful
What are you on about? Besides Sonic Team being the usual suspects, SEGA rarely fucks up.
>>
>>4074278
truly the worst of both worlds
>>
>>4074281
>didn't even know Blackberry was still around
>"yeah wow your phone must be shit"
k

How's the game running on your device, anon? Silky smooth I hope?
>>
>>4074271
I bought Phantasy Star 2 long ago, guess I won't be updating. They used to have Space Harrier 2, as well.
>>
I just use Gensoid

And the ~50 ROMS I have are from the Steam Genesis collection I purchased, so it's not even piracy is it?
>>
>>4074310
I was under the impression they filed for bankruptcy, but I guess they just almost did. It runs quite poorly on my device, much like other anons, and every single review so far have pointed out. I have a decently fast device too, so it's not just me. I can BBM you more details if you'd like.
>>
>>4074342
Nah, it's pretty apparent Sega sucks at optimizing emulators. Here's hoping they fix it
>>
>>4074361
Agreed, anon.
>>
>>4074361
>>4074375
Yeah, in my house the Sega PC Collection runs like shit with terrible audio on a 2.3ghz core 2 duo while the exact same roms in Kega Fusion run flawlessly on an old Atom netbook
>>
>not owning original hardware
>>
>>4074931
Who are you quoting?
>>
>>4071970
that was a pretty awesome commercial but I dont like touch controls.
>>
>>4074951
Messed with a couple games. Comix Zone is a nightmare, especially because it uses the 3-button controller.
Sonic CD is playable, but it's at times difficult to see things on a small screen.
>>
Y'know, this is a pretty cool concept on paper but they're really fucking it up so far.
>>
I just wish they'd put the Sega 3D Classics games on Steam (sans the 3D obviously). They're the only thing I'd want a 3DS for, and while I have no problem buying all the games, I don't want to shell out $100-$200 for the unit, not to mention the small screen.

The mobile Sonic 1 and 2 ports should be on PC too. I have them and they're great, but the new PC version of CD looks fantastic on a big widescreen, and I'm sure 1 and 2 would as well.
>>
>>4075468
You can get a refurb 2DS from Nintendo with a warranty for $60 if you really wanted to. For the price of about 1.5 modern games you could get the console and everything you wanted from the Sega M2 ports.

>>4075669
I've considered that, but the higher position of the controls on the 2DS looks uncomfortable. Can anyone that has one confirm is this is true?
>>
>>4076321
reaching the L/R buttons is a pain. and the d-pad blows
>>
Phantasy Star 2 on android? Fucking cunts, at one point PSO 2 was going to be on android, this is a bit of a come down
>>
>>4076457
>at one point PSO 2 was going to be on android
are you sure you're not thinking about pso2es
>>
>>4074159
Why are you on /vr/ at all then? I'm being serious
>>
>>4074254
>ios
>automatic updates

Eh no sympathy
