Have you faggots played Don Doko Don 2? This game is simply amazing, especially for a Famicom title. This is a platformer by Taito on the vein of say the Monster Land series but more straight-forward and platform oriented.

It's the sequel to the original Don Doko Don, which was a forgettable Bubble Bobble/Snow Bros clone which makes this sequel even more impressive. Being a late FC release (it came out in 1992 when the SNES and Genesis were dominating the market) it pushes the hardware to its limits (kinda, maybe not) and it shows.

This game enjoys of

>Beautiful and highly detailed backgrounds that never repeat too much

>Animated yet charming cutscenes that tell a simple story to go along with the game

>Nice, cartoony spritework, for example the hat of your character jumps along in your head as you walk

>Optional minigames to win bonuses

>The stages are anything but boring, certain parts of them like the bridges will start to fall apart if you stay for to long on them

>Your regular weapon, the hammer serves to smash enemies so you can then pick them up to throw around

>Power-ups and collectables

>Music is good enough, never irritating but not very memorable most of the times

So yeah, even if you don't understand japanese it still is a highly enjoyable game so go and play it.

Talk about obscure vidya you've played.

Pic related. Disaster's a neat game where you have to escape a collapsing city and avoid all the natural disasters trying to kill you.

The game doesn't have combat, instead you have to avoid debris and occasionally brace the ground in order to not take damage from tremors, manage how much water you have, and make not to fall and die.

It also had multiple endings, however these just boil down to "which girl did you follow and did you abandon them given the choice?". While not a exceptional game in the slightest, I still enjoyed this game.

That's not obscure at all as far as PS2 games go and the localization is terrible, they turned all the japanese into blond americans! It doesn't make any sense considering that the game clearly takes places in Japan.

This is Amstrad CPC port of Addams Family. I can only compare it to the Amiga version that I briefly played before (which of course has nicer graphics and so on), and it seems like almost two entirely different games. In this version you often have to do some pretty fancy platforming, like for example jumping off a platform onto a ghost that's flying in the middle of the screen above some spikes, to reach a platorm on the other side. Or avoid an enemy (by jumping) on platform at top of screen, while waiting for a small moving platform below to be going in the right direction, so you can jump onto it through a small opening. But if you take it the wrong direction, you get zapped on some spikes on edge of the screen (and needless to say, there are also spikes on the bottom of screen too).

Well I've only seen a small bit of this game so far, and it often seems overwhelmingly unfair at first, but looks to be well-designed, because there's always a solution, although you may have to think about it for a bit. You can pause the game, and get 9 lives, plus 4 continues, so at least there's lots of chances for trial and error, and creative thinking. But it does require a lot of coordination too, and being able to track more than one object at once.

There's other ports too, like NES, but I haven't tried those. This one runs fine in the MESS emulator:

sdlmess cpc6128 -flop1 addamfam.dsk

When it's booted, you can type CAT at the prompt to see disk listing. Or just type RUN"ADDAMS to load the game (terminating quote can be omitted). Then you have to press spacebar at the title screen to load the game, I think, but there's a delay while it's loading from virtual floppy (too bad MESS doesn't show the disk activity light, or I missed that in configuration).

I found the game here:

This is the Sega Master System port of Wonderboy in Monsterland. Originally an arcade game, it was ported to the SMS and the PC Engine/TG16, as well as some home PC's like the Amiga and C64. The PC Engine version was reskinned into a Bikkuriman game(but is very close to the arcade version), and Jaleco ported and reskinned it into Saiyūki World for the Famicom, which was popular enough that the sequel got brought to the US as Whomp'em.

You are on a constant time limit, every time the hourglass flips you lose 1 heart of health. This fucks you worse than you think, since the amount of maximum health you have is tied to your points. You need about 400K to have 10 hearts. The most points you can get is through getting to the end of the level with maximum health. Not only are you getting punished for taking damage from enemies, you are also getting punished for not rushing through. Oh, and there is no way to continue. You die, you better hope you have the revival potion or it's game over.

Your attack hitbox is a tiny little bit in front of you. Some bosses have homing attacks that you just can not dodge. There's a hidden subquest that you really NEED to do to have a reasonable chance of either reaching or beating the final boss, and every door involved in the quest is invisible and only the first one gets pointed out to you. Gold is RNG based, so you never know if you'll have enough money for the upgrades you really need. Not knowing how the shops work and buying the wrong upgrades can make it impossible to get the best equipment in the game. There's an entire level that can be missed if you don't take a certain path.

All that being said, it's a very fun platforming-action/rpgish game. This port is also much easier than the arcade version in terms of bosses. Once you get past the learning curve and stop running into enemies you meant to attack, it's pretty fun. The only part of the game I really didn't like was the final level. Let me tell you about the final level.

The final level is a maze filled with high level enemies everywhere. If you have the Bell item from the hidden subquest, it will let you know when you are taking the right turn. Otherwise, if you have the Ruby or youPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

That's where the series became Metroid-ish. It starts you on a simplified version of the last level from Monsterland, and you have far more health than you could ever have in Monsterland. Once you beat the Dragon(you have to try to lose), then you lose all but 1 heart and turn into a dragon yourself. From there you have to search and platform around for more hearts, gold, equipment, and other upgrades. Not quite as polished as Wonderboy in Monster World, but still a damn fine Metroid-like in it's own right.

Lion King for SNES was hard as heck when I was a kid, but that's mostly becauase of the damn Continues system.

Rayman 1 for PS1 is a nightmare. Literally. Even if I didn't have to deal with the continues system in that game, the level design itself makes traversing each stage a nightmare. It's so difficult.

There's obvious horror themed classics like Castlevania, Ghosts and Goblins or Splatterhouse but there's a real lack of genuinely spooky 2D games, the best I can think of are Sweet Home and Clock Tower. I might finally get around to Fatal Frame 2 if I have to resort to something more recent.

Rockman

This list was going to be shorter but it wouldn't have been fair not to include the blue bomber. I'm debating but I've beaten one of those before. Plus, I can't help but prefer the megaman-zero games… ty

Pics related and also Akira for the Nintendo Famicom, Assault suits Leynos 2, both Super Robot wars games for the Sega Saturn, and the Eroge game who's name when translated into English means "Classmates" for the Super Famicom and PC engine. What are your wants?

What is the point of fan translating a heavy text game that already had a stellar English translation with even GOOD voice acting? There is nothing in the PC Engine version that was not carried over to the Sega CD version.

The first two original games have legit Russian translations for some reason. Don’t know how accurate they were given how often smaller languages get shitty translations.

Has character designs by him and Range Murata. Don’t know about how much they contributed to the plot.

If you are interested in the plot, the guy which translated Eien ni Filena and Enegy Breaker goes over all the essential dialogue in his (voiceless) let’s play.

/vr/ help me find the name of this game.

I was a little kid and I saw this game going and going in demo mode in a shop. It was for Amiga I think, at the time I had a commodore so I didn't bought the game but I could stare long time at that demo playing.

So the game was a sort of Rastan clone, and no, was not Rastan because he had a sky with several level of parallax scrolling (that Rastan does not have).

The main character was a sort of barbarian fighting with a club, but he could upgrade it with some potions and other stuff found in chests.

He could for example shoot fireball from the club.

Just to remove the obvious, it was not black tiger and it was not Rastan.

I vaguely remember 2 scenes being played in the demo. One in a montain area with a red sunset sky and another one in a forest with giant trees.

Any help appreciated, is several years the memory of this game haunts me.

>Last "new" game I played was Quake II, and it was only fun for one go.

So you missed out on Return to Castle Wolfenstein, SiN, Aliens vs. Predator 2, Renegade? Man, that sucks. At least you played Dark Forces II, I guess.

Didn't play any of those, and I'm not missing anything tbh. I tried a large number of Nintendo DS roms, because I have a flash cart (the NDS itself was free), but can't get into most of them. With PC games it's much worse because there's even more focus on graphics and fancy 3D shit. In the end, I ended up using that NDS to run emulators for 8-bit systems, especially Gameboy/Color and GameGear. Also a few 16-bit stuff like the Naxat pinball games.

> amiga's literal doom

you're such a stupid cunt. had nothing to do with anything. amiga's downfall was bankruptcy and poor planning.

>>6672

>Amiga's literal doom was a confidential meeting held by publishers in '95 or '96 where it was agreed that they should skip to other platforms regardless of developments in piracy protection

complete and utter fucking bullshit. move where? to the psx/saturn/n64 where piracy was even more rampant? not that piracy has anything to do with anything since you're making shit up as you go.

>t's not like they didn't try. They pushed out the shitty CD32 to send a message that they're trying to kill the floppy copying. Didn't work.

Ahahahaha. kill the floppy copying! ahahah. every cd32 game was cracked and made to work on floppy soon after it was released, you dumb cunt.
