/v/ - Video Games

The first half of the game is easy. The second half gets progressively harder until you're swearing at fucking ninjas with fucking jetpacks and goddamn respawning eagles.

And the sequel is even harder still,

with those random fucking wind changes halfway through jumping and the goddamn "can't see shit until lightning flashes" fuckery.

>playing on Nintendos objectively shit VC NES emulator

Stop you faggot.

>>14836404

Ah, that basically explains my whole question.

>>14836409

Really should've thought to check there first

Aside from deliberately emulating inaccuracies, which is pretty stupid though at some points it can be important since devs occasionally planned around hardware limitations, what's so bad about it? The biggest reason I'm using vc was that it was easy to pick up a lot of games to play portable using freeshop.

<Using Nintendo's shitty emulator that displays games incorrectly

<Using an emulator that intentionally slows down

<Playing patched versions of ROMs

<Not using VirtuaNES

The only thing the Virtual Console is good for is extracting ROMs and that is it.

The biggest change on the VC version of Ninja Gaiden is that the GAME OVER death flicker is a lot slower so it doesn't go epilepsy fast

Never pay.

Always pirate.

There are emulators and roms for that franchise for free.

>this guy again

>>14836387

First few stages are easy peasy. Then welcome to hell, bitch.

Who's gonna play The Messenger when it comes out later this year?

It's on all platforms.

>Y-you do know Nintendo stole the ROMs they put on the VC from pirate ROM dumps, right?

Yeah, but it's not my problem and I'm not committing a crime. If any of the rights holders really wanted to, they could file a lawsuit against Nintendo for committing piracy. On top if that, with the way that Nintendo designed their security with downloading 3DS and Wii U apps, it is completely legal to use programs and devices such as FreeShop. And, if Nintendo ever wanted takedown these systems, they'd have to explain to publishers and developers why it is that they made such an insecure method of transaction. So, as the customer, I have nothing but the advantage here to play it legally safe because Nintendo is the ones who will have their feet held to the fire and answer questions as to why they're costing companies money. Basically, I don't have anything to lose by abusing the loopholes Nintendo themselves created.

Yeah I said play not buy now go soak your head, shitweed.

>>14837905

Yes.

Buying is a mistake.

Even more when there are free alternatives.

>>14836387

more like ninja gayden, but to be serious the bird is 1st casual filter, once you realize you can just fuck with the screen you can ball through easy and also learn how to use up + attack (cancels attack animation like churayzee when looping between attack and u.attack, also shit like the cartwheel fire thing, you can actually not use the powerup)

but the game throws a weird curveball (spoiler:you start at 6-1 instead of before the boss stage, haha xd but you go back to the form you were defeated on and i think the damage you dealt is still there) at the end but it's actually somewhat balanced.

2 is harder

3 is actual HARD.

after that, the most ninja gayden-like game is probably nes batman

I would be more interested in this if they hadn't tried to get "cute" and "clever" with it.
