>>12103002 (OP)
Sorry, I was born in 2000 and nobody my age has ever played such unc ahh games.

>>12103027
>unc ahh
>ahh
Is this a new zoomer expression?

>thougheverbait?
what is this word salad

Nah it's Roblox for you faggots to get diddled by pedos

Generation theory is pseudoscience, but yes, most Gamecube kids (read: born in the 90s) had that game and it was even to the point that it became the best-selling 3rd party game on the console

>>12103002 (OP)

Sad.

You bet

are these THE games of all time I've been hearing about?

Actual zoomer here. You don't speak for us braindead idiots. It's clearly Wii Sports.

>>12103123
Actually a decent post

>>12103202
>It's clearly Wii Sports
Unironicaly a good game to play with frens

Based, but SA2 is clearly for early zooms or final year millennials

Ew

>>12103002 (OP)
>born just in time to play sa2b 6 years after it came out then watch and make crappy chao videos on youtube filmed off the flickering crt with the worst camera known to man
I feel bad for people born after 1999-2002. You just had to be there.

Wait was the title always meant to be read as "sonic adventure to battle"?

>>12104524
Battle is the name of the rerelease, but yeah, probably.

>>12103002 (OP)
This was a late millennial game. The oldest zoomers were in kindergarten when it came out and most zoomers weren't born yet.

>>12104014
>born in 99-02
>missed out completely on gen4/5 golden age and at best grew up with gen 6 trash but probably gen 7 cancer and minecraft
youre the one who missed out, retard

You mean ASS?! The word you are looking for is ASS. That's A.S.S. ASS.

>>12104524
>>12105009
At our elementary school we also read it as "sonic adventure battle two" lol

SA2 is late millennial, zoomer is 7th gen

>>12104524
>>12105009
>>12105858

shiggy diggy

>>12105609
Nah, I got to play retrokino through based collections like Sonic Mega Collection and Midway Arcade Treasures and Jakks plug and plays, faggot. Millennials lost.

>>12106652
>jakks plug and plays
zoomer "culture"

>>12103002 (OP)
The oldest zoomer was 4 years old when Sonic Adventure 2 released

>>12107309
literally the exact same case with millennials and super mario bros, but of course you only took offense to zoomers and sa2. typical

>>12103002 (OP)
Nah, adventure 2 is not yours to claim broccolli. Go back to /v

>>12107321
SMB is more Gen X. 3 is Xennial, World is Millennial

>>12107321
The first SMB is late Gen X, just like SA2 is late millennial. Video games don't belong to the generation whose oldest members were in preschool when they came out.

>>12103002 (OP)
My cousins had an xbox and gamecube, the ones born in the early 90s played Battle 2 and Halo, the ones born after 2000 only played Halo and then Mario Galaxy when that came out.

>>12107293
Yes. That was, of course, when I wasn't playing the actual arcade machines at my local mom n pop restaurants.

>>12104014
>>12106652
>>12107528
i often wonder whether all the people born in 2002 and 2003 claiming to be "le early zoomers" are some sort of massive well-poisoning effort to discredit actual pre-9/11 zillennials

>>12108209
>zillennial
this meme will NEVER take off, I'm so sorry anon but it's never catching on

>>12103002 (OP)
>Gen X? Pac-Man
Pac man? WTF.

>>12108209
I am not joking and I was born before 9/11. My first game console was an Atari Flashback 2.

>>12103123
Its funny how Nintendo basically bailed out Sega, just because they both hated Sony so much. Like when the heroes and villains team up to take out a bigger threat... hey wait a second!

>>12109442
Nintendo didn't bail out SEGA, they just weren't spiteful dickheads about it (unlike Sony who forced them to port Heroes to the PS2 by threatening to blacklist them forever). Isao Okawa bailed them out.

>>12109442
I recall reading that some devs at Sega were absolutely stoked to make games on Nintendo hardware.

>>12109552
Why do online westerners always painting Nintendo as the bad guys but when you read japanese internet, the story is always quite different.

>>12109552
Nintendo allowing them to port the adventure games (and subsequently having them sell like hotcakes) was a big deal for the company at the time. They could have absolutely told them to kick rocks, and maybe xbox would have let them port the games, but Segas games didn't really do well on that platform.

>>12109665
>Why do online westerners always painting Nintendo as the bad guys but when you read japanese internet, the story is always quite different
Japs are the biggest corporate bootlickers on earth
Webm related. A Jap finding a flashcart

>>12110704
I don't really know the context of your non-retro webm, but I also don't trust westerners either when it comes to telling the story how it is. I don't mean Japanese are always right either but westerners tend to bullshit more imo. Just look at all the SoA fiasco, yet for decades western journos swore SoJ were the literal devil and SoA some heavenly saviours.

>>12103032
althougheverbeit

>>12110704
omg not the r4 cart that is still being sold! his loss

>>12105595
Sonic is a baby game though. Maybe if it was rated M I'd believe that cope more.

>>12112367
Sonic Adventure 2 was played by 8-12 year olds, not 4 year olds.

>>12103002 (OP)
Why do zoomers lie SO FUCKING MUCH? At best it's a very late millennial game.

>>12112410
Probably the same ones who were trying to claim Fairly Oddparents and Jimmy Neutron as "zoomer shows"

>>12110704
I hope he falls down those many crossing elevators they have at akihabara.

>>12112384
Most kids start playing video games at around 3-4 years old and start thinking bing bing wahoo is gay baby shit at around 8. Completely delusional post.

>>12112426
>Completely delusional post
At least you had the self-awareness to describe what you just said.

>>12112426
>Most kids start playing video games at around 3-4 years old
No, they don't.

>>12112426
>start thinking bing bing wahoo is gay baby shit at around 8
I feel sorry for zoomers who never able to experience videogames with the omnipresence of social media opinions.

>>12112459
*without the omnipresence of social media opinions.

>>12112426
HAHAHAHA you're such a dumb zoomer

>>12108221
It already took off, just look at all the itch.io retards making all the same garbage millennials did years ago

>>12110713
SoE are much more corrupt than SoA and SCL

>6th Gen is not retro! Gaming died in the 6th gen and is too "modern."
>Oh you grew up with a 6th gen game! No you didn't that was OUR thing we grew up loving the XBOX!!
Which one is it then?

>>12112659
>le board hivemind!!
/vr/ is not /r/gamingcirclejerk

>>12112462
Why only one shadowmask variety?

>>12112659
/vr/ is not one person, retard. Sane people don't think gaming died in the 6th gen either.

Why do people care that much for generational shit?

>>12112659
The Dreamcast is a gen 5 console. Sonic Adventure came out the same year as Ocarina of Time, and the console was discontinued before the gamecube even came out.

>>12112695
>but what about retarded trannies on reddit?
nta but how is this supposed to be a rebuttal?

>>12114545
>Sane people don't think gaming died in the 6th gen either.
But it literally did

>>12115557
Maybe if you don't have any taste.

>>12115584

>>12115614
for context it's zoomer's way of getting around social media filters especially on youtube where your comment can get zapped if it's not PC enough.

>>12112659
It died in the 7th gen

>>12103002 (OP)
no wonder zoomers are retarded

>>12103002 (OP)
>us zoomers thougheverbait? 2 Battle.
The absolute oldest zoomers were 4 years old when SA2 came out and most zoomers weren't even born yet
SA2 is more of a late millennial game
Not retro but an actual zoomercore games would be something like Minecraft

>>12115985
Specifically post-hunger Minecraft. That's when millennials dropped it.

This is really a young millennial/old zoomer's generational game. 93-98 would be the sweet spot to play this game as a child.

>>12117091
they're called zillenials

>1995 - Saturn releases, was designed around a new Hitachi CPU, SH-2
>1997 - Dreamcast with SH-4 as a joint venture between Sega and Hitachi
>Sonic Jam is released for the Saturn, containing Sonic 1-3 ported by Naka himself to SH-2 and elements from the then-forthcoming Adventure
>Sonic Adventure begins development as a showcase for Dreamcast hardware. Adventure fields, 10 Sonic stages, transparencies, lighting, FMVs, voice acting, etc
>Chaos according to Iizuka the director was made to shock, surprise people, something you would say "this is only posible on the Dreamcast"
>Genesis can't do transparency, Saturn can't do transparency, Dreamcast goes all out on transparency and lighting, supports 8-bit destination alpha blending with 24-bit sourcing 32-bit z-buffer
>SA1-2 used diffuse+specular lightning based on palette indices like some Saturn games
>SA1 was a game made by a maximum of 100 people, and only 11 people went to the US. Then, it was no longer possible to make 2 on that scale. I was hoping to make a small-scale game in the U.S., but at the time, Naka told me, “You can take our Japanese members with you and just make 2.” So when it came time to make 2, the starting point of the project was “How can we make 2 with this (small) number of people?”
>1999 - Iizuka goes to USA to patch up SA1 and begin SA2
>2000 - Dreamcast was flopping hard. Iizuka was determined to sell it on the Dreamcast at any cost
>Shortly after the news that Sega was withdrawing the Dreamcast, Iizuka was given the opportunity to place an ad in a magazine that put Sonic and the GameCube together. He decided to make Sonic Adventure 2: Battle on Nintendo hardware because, “If Sega’s hardware is no longer available, I want to release it on Nintendo’s hardware.”

>>12103027
I was born in 2001 and SA2B is one of my favorite childhood games.

>>12103675
Only post here to get it right.

>>12107309
>>12112410
>>12112384
You guys are knuckleheads and one of you is probably the 92anon from /v/ who said 12-16 years old is peak childhood and that they werent sentient and had no memories at all from 5-9 4 year olds are capable of playing this game. I did at that age and you can also play games past their release date. Most people who aren't goldfish brain NPCs who only care about the hottest trends can do that, and if all you care about is trends then you're merely a fallen normalfag. This autistic rewriting of "peak childhood" to incorporate middle school years that no one really likes (age 11, 12) over core childhood years such as 5, 6, 7 is gay and retarded. Being a tween SUCKS.

>>12107379
They're both Xennial. Any millennial who had an NES (which many did) played SMB

>>12103027
>Crusty 25 year old man trying to act young.
>Self censoring the word "ass"
Embarassing

>>12115925
For context, we're on 4chan and if the word "ass" is too intense for you, you need to leave now.

>>12120609
I envy zoomers who think 4chan is a le epic deep fried memes forum and still have a chance. I wish I had never seen the horse blender. God, please let me leave.

Why does age matter?

>>12120959
I need to have a reason why I'm inherently superior to others without having to accomplish anything

>>12120616
Animal videos are such a tossup on this site. You can find some wonderful ones here, but there's also some genuine psychos that post cruel torture videos. I don't even visit the animal board anymore because half the time its flooded with people who hate animals. Generally, if I see an asian, muslim, or black in the still image of the animal video, I won't watch it.

>>12119253
>92anon from /v/ who said 12-16 years old is peak childhood and that they werent sentient and had no memories at all from 5-9
funny, i saw someone there claiming to be from 1995 and having no memories until age 7. same anon?

>>12120959
We're being primed to identify with marketing divisions more than anything, in preparation for the brave new corporate-state world of the post 2030 collapse. Prepare for the Coca-Cola wars, and if you're not a bunch of fucking niggers you'll be fighting for Dr. Pepper like me.

>>12103002 (OP)
Talk about stolen valor. You zoomies didn't know or even care about sonic. Many new and young "fans" only know the movies and phone games. Your icon and franchise is roblox,minecraft or fortnite

>>12121887
Minecraft was good before zoomers discovered it. Now it's Lego Fortnite.

>>12103002 (OP)
the oldest zoomers were like 6 when this released and it's an expansion of a game years older than that

>>12103030

>>12112640
'zillennial' means 'early zoomer that wishes it was a millennial'

>>12104524
No, the title is "Sonic Adventure 2: Battle" to signify that the version adds versus multiplayer; they simply didn't think including a convention colon would be cool.

>>12121887
early zoomers are the ones who say Heroes and Unleashed are good

it's late zoomers and maybe mid zoomers as well who don't care about Sonic

the movies however have probably indoctrinated gen alpha kids, and I see Sonic merch clothing for kids all the time bought for them by their millennial parents

>>12120959
Because education and acculturation of citizens has declined so dramatically over the past few decades that the tastes and understanding zoomers have displayed over the past 7 years of intimate observation and interaction is often unbearably below even their immediate predecessors of late millennials.

Look at gen alpha kids right now and the education crisis being discussed about them. They may be even worse at discussions once old enough to have them. It's not just a zoomer thing.

>>12118767
this
if you were an older millennial, you wouldn't even treat a late millennial's opinion on the 4th generation as equally weighted to you and your peers'. Because they weren't there and weren't about that life.

>>12122013
SA2's 2P battle mode was largely unfinished on DC. Metal Sonic was basically a reskin. The Battle port fixed it. Shame we never got a SA2 Battle Dreamcast version.

>>12118795
I'm kind of suprised they didn't go to xbox. They ended up putting a lot of exclusives on that console, so clearly they liked it. Maybe they thought a cartoony platformer series like sonic was better suited on a Nintendo console?

>>12122068
Well there's the PC port with mods. That gets you all the advantages of battle (60fps, more content) while also being able to get the dreamcast textures and stuff.

>>12122397
Sonc 2 goes to gc shenmue 2 goes xbox and pso both now we all can be happy no?

>>12122437
I just want to be able to play orta on a modern PC

>>12122045
Makes sense. I was born in 85. Started with the NES when I was real little. Then got a Sega Genesis afterwards for the early to mid 90s. What would someone born in 95 know about growing up with those systems?

>>12122458
>I just want to be able to play orta on a modern PC
Is Xemu still too shit?

>>12122545
at most they'd have messed around with the Animal Crossing virtual consoles

>>12121158
Third-worlders started flooding into this site and brought that shit with them

I played SA2B for the first time as an adult
Needed weed in order to enjoy it

>>12122008
it means "millenial not accepted by millenials and zoomer not accepted by zoomers"

>>12103027
fpwp

>>12120959
Because people are tribalistic by nature

>>12123174
must suck to need weed to enjoy things, feel better soon

>>12103002 (OP)
SA2 is garbage.

>>12122608
Last I tried, yes. You can see the FPS go all over the place in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvzGZ5URGVs
For most games its a mild inconvenience, but in a rail shooter bouncing around from 33 to 60 fps at random makes it borderline unplayable IMO. That video also mentions his game even just straight up crashed, I was able to get through but gave up after this stage due to how annoying it was.

>>12123174
You should treat these as silly games, like a cheesy B horror movie. You'll have a lot more fun that way than trying to treat like OOT or something.

>>12125532
Wrong

>>12122397
>>12122437
>>12122458
Iizuka specifically wanted Sonic on Nintendo hardware
