Now that AliExpress doesn't seem to allow custom game cartridges anymore, where can I buy some custom Gameboy carts?

Soul Blazer Timeline Anonymous 04/18/17 (Tue) 07:41:26 No.5744 [Open thread]

hey /vr/, I need to know something. So the Soul Blazer series is loosely connected by the story and gameplay but over the multiple playthroughs I've done I haven't been able to determine the order of events and I want to do a chronological playthrough of the trilogy to finally get the full story in order.

I have played all 3 of these games and I don't think they are connected timeline-wise. They just use similar themes I think.

there is a definite connection between them, I just wish I knew the order. I know for sure that Soul Blazer comes before Illusion of Gaia as shown in the second pic where Will is confronting the first boss from Soul Blazer and the boss references the protagonist from Soul Blazer had already defeated him long ago. the question is where does Terranigma fall in the timeline.

Ah, I totally forgot about that. Still, it might be just a reference. If the games are really connected, then I think the chronological order would be Soul Blazer-Illusion of Gaia-Terranigma. Then there's this game called Granstream Saga which is apparently another game in that series.

I am making a huge mistake Anonymous 04/08/17 (Sat) 17:14:28 No.5727 [Open thread]

There's a local auction by me by a liquidation company because a business that rented out and owned a large amount of arcade machines. Most of the things listed in the auction are for arcade PCBs. I don't want to see these things end up in the dump because a lot of them are irreplaceable relics. A lot of local collectors are swooping in on it and bidding up all two working machines in the auction (gunbird, and a rolling thunder cocktail). Is it a bad idea to bid on about 100 bucks on arcade PCBs? Would I ever get any decent trades for them?

I'm also pretty hyped to get my hands on this control panel. It comes with two cores for the internals of the cabinet. I'm mostly excited about this one because whenever I got a chance to play it, it was always set to something like a dollar a play and ate through quarters like mad so I never got a chance to beat it.

I have a question for anyone who owns an arcade cabinet; is this a huge mistake and a future money hole?

And right as I posted this I was outbid on the lot with sunset riders and tech romancer. The auction ends on the 12th and I'm still hopeful about that control panel and can now put more money towards another lot that contains third strike.

I did it for anyone who read the thread, I am the proud owner of a third strike cart and a cps3 motherboard. I ended up going with that because the parts for it are still being sold/traded on a still alive videogame forum of dedicated neckbeards. I think I'm going to end up selling it so not only I make some money off of it, but it gets into the hands of someone with the technical skill to restore it.

Good luck with finding someone to do any electronic repairs. There's fuck all for jobs in the US for electronic engineers, and I've been working for a fucking phone company wrangling retards for almost a decade. In that time, all I've done for EE was modify a couple consoles. Still, congratulations. Maybe scrounge around some coin-op forums for advice on restoring everything? They're generally pretty friendly and helpful people around those places.

I found that most of the stuff I'm missing on the main board for the cps3 is computer standard stuff like a specific CD ROM drive that goes for 10 to 20 bucks on eBay but I also found out that the cps3 I have is worth at least twice what I paid for the the entire lot just because of it's difficult to replace proprietary parts alone. I think I'm going to sell it on that forum but now I'm stuck with the issue of wether I should sell it as is or cobble some shit together for it and test it in order to get a better return on my money. It seems like a bad idea to keep a hold of it because there's mobs of people who would be excited to restore it instead of it just sitting on my shelf on the off chance I actually get my hands on a 6 button arcade cabinet.

I've always thought Renovation Products was a very interesting obscure publisher that put out some unique and fun games. Their games are sadly starting to go up quite a bit in price on eBay, though. So, what do you own? Japanese releases of their games count, and I'll start it off.

I collect cheat devices, and I have a Game Genie for NES, SNES, Genesis, and Game Gear, as well as an Action Replay of some sort for Saturn, PSX, and Game Boy. I also collect link cables and multiplayer/multitap-type devices, despite nobody ever wanting to play multiplayer games, even on the goddamn internet.

On topic, I'm not sure if I have anything made by Renovation, and I'm more the poorer for it.

Been wanting to give Secret of Mana and SD3 a go on co-op but my friend never leaves his house (ergo, I can't get him to come here) and isn't interested in modding his Wii to be able to emulate stuff like that.

If you like JRPGs, I've found Tales of Eternia ("Tales of Destiny II" in NA) fun to co-op, and it's helped by the facts that, unlike Tales of Destiny PS1 or Tales of Phantasia PS1, combat feels more fast paced and fluid than before, and the co-op functionality is tied to a key item you can get after maybe thirty minutes to an hour (perhaps less, been a while since I played; it's at the dojo close to where the game starts) instead of having to hunt down particular accessories that eat an equip slot (and in ToP's case, there's a reason Phantasian Production's translation patch comes with a hacked in Technical Ring, as the first one you can get is like 8-10 hours in). Co-op camera's still got some issues at that point, but if it's just two people playing as Reid and Farah (casters aren't quite fun to actually play as that early in the series), you can generally keep the camera focused on them since unless you're attacked from both sides of the screen, chances are both characters will be in the vicinity of each other anyhow.

Not sure if you can co-op it via internet though; and in general it strikes me that it would be more enjoyable to couch co-op anyhow.

I need some help lads. I've been trying my hand at text editing certain games for translation/curiosity. I decided to tackle this game first because I couldn't find anything about any undergoing effort to translate this. While making a table for this was simple enough, I simply cannot insert english character tileset into this as I can't even find the japanese characters in any tile viewer for the ROM.

I am only familiar with NES tile editing so I do not know of any compression this game might have. Could anyone more familiar with Gameboy rom hacking take a look at this game's tileset and tell me what the fuck is going on in there?

Do you prefer to only play games on original hardware or do you like to collect games and then emulate them when possible so you don't risk damaging them? Personally I've been thinking about doing the latter since I modded my Wii.

I strongly prefer original hardware. You need to be smart about how you play, however. I never tell anyone to spend hundreds on Saturn or SNES games, I tell them to look into flash carts. It's a bit of an expense at first, but you be much happier with dropping the cash once and having that library from then on.

As long as I have the console and something that'll let me play games from a single cartridge/SD card/HDD, like Everdrive or the Network Adapter for the PS2, I play it on the hardware. If said console is too expensive or it is an arcade game, I emulate. I'm not much of a collectorfag, but I do sometimes buy retro stuff whenever I have money to splurge.

Collecting I couldn't give a rats ass about it

Whenever I can I use original hardware. But I am fine with PC emulation tho.

Original hardware>PC emulation>Handheld emulation>emulation on a non-handheld console IMO

What does /vr/ think of Fromsoft's earlier games?

I've been enjoying Shadow Tower Abyss quite a bit.

KF 2 and 3 are amazing exploration games. Especially 2. Its just dungeons inside of dungeons inside of more dungeons.

Armored Core was sweet, the controls were rather clunky but if anything that only added to the "piloting a giant robot" feel.

Really cool how the world is seamlessly streamed so that there's no load points.

Might be worth dropping a reminder that Echo Night 2: The Lord of Nightmare got a finished English fan-translation last year for anyone that had been waiting on it but hadn't heard for whatever reason that it was done yet.

I have been playing this for the last few days and it's lovely.

Overall improvement over the original in every way and I prefer it over the PS2 Echo Night game.
