Was? Its still is anon.

Anyone ever played it here? Having a lot of fun with it so far, almost finishing it I believe.

It walks on that fine line in which it explains some of the basics and let's you swim or die on the rest, but without being too frustrating on that part. Actually gave me a nostalgia rush for 90s games on how you had to figure out stuff yourself.

Probably also works because it is not that complex of a game, despite being a strategy RPG. The difficulty seems to come rather from ammunition shortage and (when you happen to have one) ally's retarded AI.

Gotta love the aesthetic of the cut scenes and overall the entertaining story, even though some things play too much into anime clichés. But maybe that's a charming point.

The only NGPC RPG I have is Biomotor Unitron I wish I had been abit more proactive about picking these games up back in the day. Dive Alert is getting to be crazy expensive too and apparently the learning curve on it is brutal. Is Faselei really a good enough game to justify its price?
>>
>>4450509
The price really only reflects the game's rarity, not its quality. Don't get me wrong, it's an excellent game for the NGPC, but I'd say if you just wanna play the game, it's not worth it. Only if you are a collector, maybe.

I own a review cartridge of this game. It never came out in america so it feels like a prototype, even if it isn't. I think it was something like a week away from release & then SNK went bankrupt. Surprisingly plays on the black & white system too. Fantastic game.

Emulate on 144hz monitor or Emulate on CRT?

CRT.

Or 144Hz monitor set to ~120Hz with black frame insertion.
>>
>>4450507
This but you still don't get the bloom without very high resolutions. So far I've never seen a 4k display set up correctly with my own eyes so I can't judge. My mall arcade has several cabs with 16:9 LCDs in them often not even concealed by bezels and it secretly peeves me.
>>
>>4449885
Most games don't run at more than 60hz so you won't see the benefits of a 144hz LCD. Use a CRT instead.

How are you supposed to play games in the left position?

If the controller itself works fine and you can still use memory paks, I couldn't give a shit. They shouldn't have said Transfer paks work on the controller though, that was fucking stupid of them.

>>4449954
Yeah, but it was explained by people from this thread that the Transfer Pak has a lot of issues, I'm pretty sure it works with the controller, but it can corrupt data and stuff, like the original.

Dude what. The link is amusing especially if you've actually played the game and what I had to say about the game I said: the voice acting in the audio logs isn't that great. Everything else is though. Calm the fuck down.

Just replayed this. Man this game is a masterpiece. The playing in HD reduces the difficulty somewhat though.

So /vr/ which character was your weapon of choice. Mine is pic related.

it plays plenty of other games perfectly fine though it won't play 'beyond good & evil' either which sucks because it's supposed to be good and i told my girlfriend it has a strong female lead character

I never had one, as I grew up with a Nintendo, what are the exclusives of this thing?
The list people post here all the time are just ports from their Arcade games
And all the people that sell this thing here in my states only have sports shit for some reason

The reseller plague already hit the Megadrive. The jap versions for many great titles are ludicrously expensive (Alisia Dragoon, Ranger X, any of the Streets of Rage or Thunder Force games, etc).

the essential games are still pretty cheap, unlike with the SNES. also, flashcarts are A LOT more affordable for the genesis

yeah I've seen Thunder Force IV go from a 15 dollar loose game to like 40 at times. Fuck man it sucks.

snag a everdrive and some titles i recommend are All the shinobi games, Shining Force I and II, Thunder Force series, MUSHA, Contra Hard Corps, Aladdin, Toy Story, Landstalker, Yu Yu Hakusho Sunset Fighters, Alien Soldier, Sonic games (S3&K complete is a hack but a great way to play the games), Dynamite Headdy, Tiny Toon's Busters adventure, Ranger X, Adventures of Batman and Robin, Streets of Rage 1 and 2, Langressier, Alissa Dragoon, Panorama Cotton, Elemental Master, Pluseman, and more.

Gold armor, charge-up spells. That's the easy way.

The crossbow (upgraded or not) is pretty good at hitting him too. He's good at dodging but its attack pattern is complicated enough that even he can't entirely handle it.

Yup

As early back as Street Fighter 2 The World Warriors, most arcade games in their dipswitch had a difficulty setting. Almost all arcades (if they wanted to make money) set the machines to 7 (Hard)

I never would of thought megaman (not in a bad way) but i can see your point but idk that end staff roll has catchy and had me reminding a bit of the Konami game a bit with the X-MEN voice sample with that CPS2 soundchip. Makes me hopeful for the future that X-men will finally return back to the Marvel universe with some respect after being pushed aside for MCU shit.

Literally anything. If you tap X to the right rhythm you stunlock any enemy in the game.
Legend of Mana is one of those special games where its worth suffering through one of the worst combat systems ever because the rest is so good.

My favorite pet was my Succubus, I think I made her a schemer and she sure as fuck did a good job of just stunlocking and interrupting everything, she could almost solo the game for me. Those rapid jabs were just OP.

Once you can craft instruments, you;ll need to do exactly that to get elemental coins.

>>4447923
>craft
I love LoM, but the crafting system is just so fucking messed up. There's a barebones explanation of "combine materials and you make stuff" ingame which doesn't help in the least, no indication of what items apply new properties nor what the properties actually do, and getting some of the materials might take several playthroughs.

Though yeah, if Gradius III ARC is pretty much as long, then other than maybe cutscene stuff and some Salamander conveniences what does it dumb down?

This is the absolute sign of a pleb, "muh aesthetics" arguments over you just committed suicide. Do you think swy has bad taste?

>Sure you have, Cletus.
I bet i fucking have dicknose.

>>4448840
>maybe you'll develop some actual taste one day...
By taste you mean easier overly long games that strip away all the character and turn it into a muh grafix for dumb faggots like you to wank over.
>>
>>4448849
>what does it dumb down?
really? um how about that tiny hitbox?
>>
>>4449068
That's it? But doesn't the game accommodate for this with tighter patterns more akin to later shmups? Again, haven't played it so I don't really know.

If this is your only real complaint then it doesn't seem THAT bad or dumbed down. It at least looks better than III ARC with its few gimmicky memorization-heavy levels
