Thread 12130874

Anyone have any favorites, or recommendations. Are any of them superior to the originals or are they just emulation? Only recently learned about these and was curious what VR thought about them.

>>12130874 (OP)
Mostly the early 3D ones are kinda crap. The later ones are really good. I'm sure you can still have fun with Vol. 15, 6, 8, and 9. M2 got involved with volume 20 and up and made some of the best sets with my favorites being Virtual-On and SDI&Quartet.

>>12130874 (OP)
The music from the 2500 series commercial lives rent free in my head, and I haven't been able to find the video again.

Panzer Dragoon is fine, original devs worked on it, have Pandora's Box extras and the arranged mode with bit of better textures though there's also saturn mode with all the pixelated textures.
Some visual effects are absent but mostly is a faithful port/"remaster" of the game, better than the western remake for sure.
Probably the actual best ones are the M2 developer ones? Anyone knows if Gunstar Heroes sega ages is good?
M2's 3DS port was great.

i just learned klonoa was on ps2 thru a jap exclusive

>>12131049
That one looks good. May pick that up eventually.
>>12130898
How do you feel about the dynamite one? And do you need to be able to understand Japanese to play it? I wish they had brought these to the US, I grew up on Nintendo and Genesis w Genesis taking up most of my game in the 90s until my buddy got a 64 sometime around 97. These probably would’ve been on my radar as I was a lot of retro on my modded Xbox at the time they were releasing. Feel like it was a big missed opportunity to just do some basic bitch translation to English and have a huge market in America where the Genesis was waaaaay more popular. I know it focuses on master system games too but still, the US, you would think, would be the ideal place for ports of a system they would have been primed like me at 18-22 in that era for nostalgia baiting w these games.

>>12130874 (OP)
Give the Gunstar Heroes one a try. It not only has Alien Soldier and Dynamite Headdy, but also the Game Gear port of Gunstar Heroes.

>>12131793
Any differences with just playing the original versions?

>>12131156
The only japanese thing that would be "hard" are the QTE since it states Punch/Kick in katakana really fast.

>>12131861
Not really, they replicated the feeling of the originals quite well, but they even added a beta of the GameGear edition in as well. Sega was quite committed to reproducing the classic feeling as to even include a pin for Phantasy Star as they did with the promotion of RPGs on the Mega Drive having pins too.

>>12131793
Oh sick it’s marble counter guy

>>12132000
I may be okay w that. Studied intro to Japanese in college and we learned the basics of Hiragana and Katakana so it may not be to big a stretch as long as it’s the same characters over and over. Looks like emulation is on the table, copies are like 80 dollars, furthering my belief they should’ve been translated and ported to America

>>12132041
Oh neat it's that guy that hoards COUNTERfit games and pretends they're real.
Have you ever got any real consoles to play on your CRT or are you still just as retarded and using your retron 5 bullshit?

>>12132193
Even if he is doing that… damn I respect the commitment to it.

Looked into Dynamite Deka and wow, why the hell didn’t they port that. Me and my group of nerds would’ve loved that. We grew up on streets of rage 2 and Fighting Force just didn’t fill the void.

The music for PS2 Alien Soldier sounds nowhere near as good as the Mega Drive version. But it has a cool video of a developer run on the disc. No real reason to check it out otherwise.

Get a tripcode so I can filter your pathetic ass you attention whoring faggot.

>>12132193
What about this pic exactly proves that it's counterfeit?

>>12132360
Nothing, people just don't like that guy. Simple as that.

>port of game that only works on ps2 instead of ps1-3 like the original
for what purpose

>>12132360
Those games are actually all counterfeit games. Those games in particular.

>>12132360
Here's more counterfeits from his collection. Why someone would hoard fakes like that, I don't know. It doesn't make any sense.

>>12133169
I also still have old bootleg movies and games.
They are vestiges of a different era, a different world.

>>12132741
Literally not. Must be sad to be you.

>>12133169
Such an idiot. Lmao

>>12133809
Yea, china.

the jap saturn series also VR means Virtual Reality

>>12133169
>clearly indicates when he's picked up bootlegs

American shoe size IQ

>>12135904
He didn't in the other image you third world retard. He doesn't own real consoles, yet he seems to have all the games. Seems pretty fishy to me.

Dynamite Deka pisses me off because all the QTEs are in Japanese.

Despite the fact that to configure the controls you have to understand English (all the labels in the Options menu are in English).

I need a patched version...

>>12136275
Why don't you play the English (Die Hard Arcade) saturn or arcade version?

>>12136316
Enhanced textures?

Also DHA is super-weird in that it actually loads the region of the game based on the console it's being played on so you still get Japanese QTE text even if you load a NTSC-U ISO if the console is a Japanese Saturn. Someone did devise a patch for this, though (as my MODE Saturn is a Japanese model - although with Saroo on my American Saturn I could technically circumvent this; although I also think I have a DHA disc anyway, IIRC).

>>12133881
Literally yes. Instead of derailing a thread like a nig nog whenever he shows up, cry to a janny instead.

what a shit thread

>>12130874 (OP)
Alien Soldier might be the best game on the PS2

>>12130874 (OP)
I've played a few of these and they're pretty neat. Virtual On on PS2 is the best version of the game since it's Arcade Perfect+. Panzer Dragoon is a great conversion I noticed nothing wrong with, only problem is the story is all Japanese but eh who cares lol. I was more disappointed with Sega Rally though since it has no multiplayer.

>>12136610
Yea, three of those are me. You fucking third world retard.

>>12136192
I've seen him post consoles lolwut

>>12130874 (OP)
Fantasy Zone II was impressive because they created an actual System 16 game, then emulated it on PS2.. in 2008.
M2's arcade compilations near the end were really good. Arcade perfect Space Harrier and especially Galaxy Force collections. Not too often you get console ports of those kind of superscaler games.

>>12137225
Handhelds. You've seen him post handhelds.

>>12136360
>loads the region of the game based on the console it's being played on
reminds me, American Command & Conquer disc has Japanese voices when played on a Japanese Saturn

>>12137350
You don't know me like that. Lurk more.

>>12138716

Reminder.

You have literally 0 critical thinking skills.

>>12131040
also run at stable 60 fps

Sega ages Panzer Dragoon is the definitive and best way to play

>>12139150
It's a fucking image you retard.

The irony is that it's not even a marble top, it's cheap formica

>>12139927
Everything about the guy is counterfeit; including his counterfeit countertops.

>>12131049
And now so have I. Sadly unless someone patches it it's in japanese so whatever

>>12132259
>I respect the commitment
It's called having money and a hoarding addiction
There's no commitment. Just having no social life does that

>Includes every single Fantasy Zone game, including most home ports
>Multiple resolution options in an era where most companies settled for blurry 480i
>Remake of Tears of Opa Opa for the actual System 16 hardware that's pretty much it's own game, and incredibly fun to boot
>All for 2500 yen
Forget the best SEGA AGES release, this is the greatest compilation of all time.

>>12139018
>Are you jealous of his wealth?
You must be new. He constantly posts how he has no money now and basically got everything when it was cheap/in bargain bins, which checks out if he is being legit.
