What are some old mario-like games that have linear (but challenging) gameplay? I need something to pass the time when I am too out of it to be productive that won't frustrate me
>>
contra there was such sega game, can be played on an emulator let me check for a link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contra:_Hard_Corps great game, but playing it without joysticks sucks
>>
megaman, specially megaman 3
>>
>>940 Beating the giant thing in level 1 with the direction buttons is like impossible lol
>>
>>942 Back when I played it on Sega my joysticks were old as the world, they didn't have thumb sticks, so moving in directions was done with buttons as well, but it was still much more comfortable that keyboard. >impossible I know an avid Sega fan who beat the entire game on keyboard, though I didn't inquire how exactly.

What's a game you want that doesn't exist?

>>153 An arcade music game like IIDX with a LED backlit 512 key isomorphic (hexagonal grid) key layout that overlays a reflection of your hands on the the keyboard over top a reflection of a 240Hz monitor using optics to create a situation where you can see where your hands are in relation to the oncoming notes.
>>
>>401 I'd rather they make a Mania 2, I don't really like Superstars much
>>
One more borderlands but made by people who made 1st 2nd and the pre sequel. Bl 3 was a disappointment. 3$ westoid comics wrapped up in the skin of what used to be one of the best games ever.
>>
>>153 remake of Michael Jackson's Moonwalker (the genesis plataformer) with rythm/dungeon crawler gameplay (crypt of the necrodancer style)
>>

>>153 probably this would be an action game set in taimanin univers. gameplay wise something like ninja gaiden, MGRR, nier automata or bayonetta, Now taimanin IP is a series of japanese porn VNs(and few gachashits) but it has pretty cool lore with demons and ninjas and shit.

What are your thoughts on cloud gaming? I just tried out Luna recently because I saw an ad for it on my TV and it's nice. I don't have the hardware to play intensive games. The only issue is there is slight lag when there is a hiccup in internet connection. This is sort of rare because I have good internet. I've been mostly playing Battle For The Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated
>>
Pretty good, I have an old shitty laptop that's over a decade old so stuff like this is pretty nice
>>
>>18 Never tried it, but it seems cool. I'll try it out eventually though
>>
>>18 Personally as someone who cares about ownership(uses steam ironic) I couldnt justify using such services along with subscription services like gamepass. it doesnt align with my morals. Id rather invest money into hardware and software than use such services for gaming

Is it worth it collecting physical copies anymore? Anonymous 06/08/2023 (Thu) 23:23:29 Id:cad194 No. 44 [Reply]
Everything is saved digitally. Unless every single computer were to randomly explode, these digital copies aren't going away. I still like to collect physical game copies, but mostly older titles. There's no point to this either since emulation has progressively been getting better. The only reason I get physical copies now is just because they they look cool on a shelf, although a lot of newer covers don't really look as cool.

reminder that when buying a game, you need to buy the consol that work with the game. it costs more
>>
>>44 honestly when it comes to PCs there is no reason to buy physical imo. Steam has proven itself to be a reliable service that you dont need to fear fucking you over. I still ike physical videogames so i do buy physical releases for games i really like. Not to use but to have in collection. Hell im thinking on starting to make my own custom physical releases for indie games that are digital only.
>>
Physical == digital You can just copy the drive contents into a file and have the emulator use that forever Like, this discussion just boils down to whether you want to purchase merchandise, purchasing 1s and 0s is beyond me.
>>
don't physical copies require an internet connection nowadays because of drm?
>>
>>920 i think so think CD most cases is just as a piece of physical DRM with next to no game on it

What's the best handheld console for emulating? For years I've used a PSP to emulate NES, SNES, GBA, etc. but I would like to know what you think

>>
>>84 I recently got a Steam Deck solely for emulation actually, probably one of the best things to use for emulation
>>
>>86 what do you play?
>>
>>88 Mainly Nintendo titles from 80s-early 2000s Some Sega Dreamcast & PlayStation 1-2 I liek to play as well
>>

>>82 id say vita is good option if you want portability its basically psp on steroids so you can emulate psp and everything psp could. I also think vita is capable of emulating some ps2, nintendo ds and 3ds games as well

black souls 1 & 2 Anonymous 09/14/2023 (Thu) 16:42:10 Id:0a7825 No. 352 [Reply]
the black souls series is a video game where you play as a protagonist in a world inspired bu fairy tales. made with rpg maker, the game plays lile a 'soulslike' but turn by turn gameplay. I played the first game and like 10 of the second game, but played the first game more. I wanted to know if beating hansel and gretel in the witch's house (the first hansel and gretel you see in the begining of the game) is something easy or did I make an achievment I've made. also beside the porn is the game really worth it? the game doesn't help you understand what are object about so I get a bit lost at the begining.

>>352 schizo fantasy of insane pedo

you are the nastiest faggot alive for reporting* that

>>352 i'm always a fan of edgy, faceless main characters in cool outfits
