Bonus points for discussion around CRT's that aren't specially involving retrogaming.
I will start: what stuff do you prefer to watch on a CRT?
Personally I think until we get some kind of Blu-Ray, the Sonic OVA has to be on a CRT.

What's stopping you anon?
There’s an absolute metric fuckload of retro wrestling games, spanning a large amount of time, covering a broad number of promotions like ECW or WCW, or not covering anything real at all and just doing their own thing, and how they play is insanely varied.
Often no two wrestling games interpret wrestling in the same way, some aim for arcadey feel, others are straight sims. There are a small number of staple series that keep a somewhat consistent loop of gameplay throughout their respective lineage like AKI’s series of games, or the SvR games.
We got a lot to discuss, let’s get it on.

I tried some emus but I got confused by the GUI and the controls wouldn't work after a while.

Imagine how kino a full open-world map of Black Mesa would be. All the parts of Opposing Force, Blue Shift and Half-Life stitched together. Chuck in Sven Co-op, and you could have this badass multiplayer thing where each of the three players race to complete their game of the goldsrc trilogy first. You would be having casual banter and trying to hide your progress, and then they hear that someones disarmed the rocket over the intercom or something. Is such a mod even possible?

are people really paying these prices for kids game???
For example, the first Home Alone on Snes. I bought it randomly years ago in a store for 5$ and I definitely got 5$ of fun out of that. Game is relatively easy and short, I would have been pissed getting that as a 10-12 years old. But for 5$? It's not terrible. I replay it every few years

![World Cup Italia '90 (UE) [!]000](https://i.4cdn.org/vr/1652575180394s.jpg)
Well, now that I'm done with my blog post, it's time to actually get to the point of this thread, posting about retro sports video games. I've been trying out some 8bit titles as of late, mostly anything to do with football/soccer, and I have to admit most don't hold up all that well. When it comes to 8bit, I limit myself to the NES and Master System, though I know there were other consoles and even computers with worthwhile titles. On the NES, I haven't tried everything yet, both GOAL titles on NES look decent, Konami Hyper Soccer too, but so far I've only enjoyed Tecmo World Cup Soccer on the console. I've had more luck on the Master System, somewhat, I think I've played all of the football/soccer titles there, and once again I've disliked most, but World Cup Italia '90 and Tecmo World Cup '93 were genuinely decent to play.
I hear this all the time, and man, what a fucking shit take. how can you seriously think this? it's the most generic and mundane part of the game by far. all you do is kill a few of the easiest enemies and loot some houses. that's it. it's still fantastic on its own merits, but it isn't even close to the best part of the game. later areas like the regenerators, sewer fight against the "right hand", the two gigantes, the fucking worm thing in the shipping containers... the game just gets better and better until the end. I don't know how village could be your favorite part of the game unless you suck and got filtered hard later on.
>making decisions down to the last microsecond
Too bad it failed miserably to deliver. But then again, technical limitations of the time.

I've played through Duke Nukem and Shadow Warrior and they were fine, but Doom pisses me off. There are like a million different mods for it (I'm not gonna call them wads, fuck off) and some of the most recommended ones like Brutal Doom seem to change too much from the original.
Years ago I downloaded some random one, but not being able to aim up and down was simply not acceptable for me so I deleted it in 2 minutes. I want some basic improvements to graphics and gameplay.
Please advise and please be kind.

How is this game?
I have never played it before but i know there is a remaster coming out this year.
Is it more like Quake/Doom or trying to be realistic like half-life?
Was it better than half-life?

In my many years of attempting to make friends in college, I've finally met some people that can stand to be around me, and their main thing is that they've been playing Mario Kart Double Dash since around 2005/2006. I've played with them every chance I get, and while it has been really frustrating having to go up against borderline speedrunners of the game every Friday, the experience of doing stuff with other people is too important to deter my efforts.
They're hoping to start an actual club for the game in the fall, and they said I should try to practice over the summer if I have the time. I've played the game a lot as a kid, but I was never able to get even a trophy on anything over 50cc. I've gotten kind of good at the game playing with them, but I'm still fairly mediocre with mini-turbos/snaking. It took me only a few hours over the course of three days to unlock most of the stuff, but I'm still having a lot of trouble getting past the Star Cup in mirror mode. I've found the most comfortable loadout to be Toad/Toadette/Toad Kart, however I'm considering investing my time into the Barrel Train. Oddly enough, the kart I felt most comfortable with playing against those guys was the Boo Pipes with King Boo, so I'm trying to unlock those as quickly as possible.
Is it worth the cost of a DreamPi?
>get final fantasy for nes

How did people react to this at the time?
Are the other Core games worth playing too or does it go downhill fast after this?

controls are very very clunky, the camera is outrageous, but goddamn it i never had this much fun in a long time.
i don't think it's objectively a good game, in fact it's prettty bad, but there is something about it.
the setting, the atmosphere and the music, the many types of enemies, the simple, violent and clunky combat and the ps1 aesthetic.
i suggest you to give it a try, it's really good.
Your thoughts on this game? It even got a sequel unlike Darkwing for example.
In my view, Gen 6 represents the best compromise between production and creativity. It was the era just before the focus testing epidemic; games didn't have massive budgets, but devs knew how to stretch them to their full potential. All previous gens lack the proper technology to fully realize their visions, and all future gens lack vision altogether.
Gen 6 is the best, and I'll fight anyone who disagrees.
>And/or he kills Baby Bowser, among other things…
So I chopped up a map, and assuming it's gameplay accurate, and that I didn't screw up somewhere, then the final vertical shaft is only off by about one horizontal screen.
They were one screen short of keeping the starting point aligned with the end point, ONE SCREEN.

I'm half way through this: https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=viewthread&t=121332&page=1&pid=1601503#p1601503
Of the deep seated self directed frustration
All it does is promote fear and constrenation
It's the inability
To justify the enemy
And it fills us all with trepidation
THEM AND US
Bending the significance to match a whimsied fable
THEM AND US
Tumult for the ignorant and purpose for the violence
A confused loose alliance forming
Them and us
What would you have done differently?
That will be $18 a month or $120 a year.
-Both put you in a town you can more or less explore freely
-but have very similar ''moving controls'' with this hybrid of tank controls with a camera that follows you from the back
-both make you talk to people in order to gather information to continue with you quest/investigation
-both have scuffed virtua fighter segments
It really is amazing how similar, yet different, these games are, both came out in 1999, with Omikron releasing just a few months before Shenmue, i'm not saying the devs copied each other but it really is interesting (for me)
R we gettin' a remake soon after Museum+?!
And for those who've done some programming on either, what's the difference between the two's instruction sets? Could a NES game's logic (Not graphical data) run just fine on a GB unit?
Why didn't they just get more chances to do that and drop Sonic after the genesis or Adventure 1
