As pointed out, the PS1 felt very slow compared to what we were used to at the time and even today, my modern OLED feels very sluggish when switching inputs or reacting to a console being turned on

I'm shocked............

That people gave this guy money in the first place, well except for Slopes who was the last person on the planet not called Tommy, who thought the Amico was going to come out

It's still funny to me that Sega's 3D classics were so much better than Nintendo's own efforts, which had some abysmal game choices

If you believe this for a second, then I have some magic beans to sell you

Sega are the reason I got into gaming and they're still a huge part of my gaming these days between the Yakuza games and Sonic Frontiers/Shadow Generations. That said I'd love them to spread out a bit more like they used to and perhaps the upcoming Crazy Taxi, Shinobi etc as well as the newly announced Virtua Fighter is their route to doing just that

Not surprising given the market, still better than IGN's list though.

Thinking about it, I can't think of a single PS5 only game that I'd put in the top 30 Playstation games but from those on that list, I'd put Resident Evil 2 over the original, the 1st is iconic and still a good game but RE2 is much better in every way. FFVIII is my own personal favourite of that PS1 trilogy and I much preferred Metal Gear Solid 2 over 3. I'd also have Ridge Racer V or Type 4 over the original and for Gran Turismo, I'd be choosing GT3

The latency is noticeable to me but not to the point where it would stop me playing most of the games, although R-Type and Wild Guns don't feel good to play. It's certainly not on the level of the Megadrive collection on Switch, which is simply unplayable to me. That said I do tend to play my retro games on my PC where they feel much better to play and largely indistinguishable from the real thing.

If anything, the joy cons stop me from playing such games in portable mode, more so than the latency

Unfortunately this has the been the state of YouTube and others for years, who are all too eager to rely heavily on technology to do their jobs and then blatantly lie that people have actually being involved. I've long since lost count with how many times I've seen that copy and pasted response to issues like this or the rampant fake copyright abuse.

I've had a similar issue with Facebook recently which simply won't let me make a new account (my old one long deleted). Every time I try it immediately says I've broken community guidelines and then upon appeal (which they claim a human looks at it, spoiler they don't), my appeal is rejected in an exact amount of time that never changes and it never gives me a reason

It's kind of crazy how they were able to do that back then, there's no chance that would be allowed in a modern game without at least one of those companies calling their lawyers

You can literally see the front USB traces connecting to the rear USB port and the Xbox controller powers up and selects player one before he even turns the console on.

Who are they trying to kid?

Wait, that's still running on the Master System? That's impressive

This is great news, I've just preordered one for Q125 and whilst I don't use an ODE currently, I've got enough games for VMU swapping to be an issue. I've also seen the video showing VMU support for Flycast

I can't wait to buy one of these just after I get one of those Amico's

Should've never let him out in the first place....

In a world where those Abernic devices are so cheap and plentiful, I don't really see the point of things like this to play them on your phone

I completely disagree with him here, I think many of the early 3D fighting games still look fantastic and in some ways more visually appealing then modern ones can look as they clutter the screen with effects. The early Tekken games still look nice, as does Virtua Fighter 2 and Dead or Alive 2 is another looker.

If anything I actually play these earlier games more as I find them more enjoyable to play

Well if he is it should boost sales dramatically, as you'll have his fans that'll want to play as him and then people like me who'll be happy to beat the **** out of him 😂

These idiots just make stuff up and these look bloody awful. In what world is this slop going to magically make RT less expensive to use? It would have idea whatsoever what is off screen and would never work

Say what you want about the 3DO but at least it had a game available at launch 😉

I stupidly didn't notice the Game Gear option on the last one but overall pretty pleased with a score of 22. Just the Wonderswan and Gamate that I didn't know.

That was fun

They did a very good job with these and it's cool that I have the likes of Daytona USA 2 and Virtua Fighter 3 preserved on a PS5 disc.

Hopefully Sega see fit to release them as a separate compilation at some point

One of my favourite games for the N64, the music and gameplay variety was fantastic and I've enjoyed revisiting it with the recent PC port. We need this on NSO

Well that's interesting, I've played Star Fox at a near perfect 60fps on a special build of SNES9X and whilst I don't expect this to hit that target, it should be a nice boost

@PopetheRev28 and a lot more tracks plus a 10 year championship mode, whilst the PC version can run at 60fps

@PopetheRev28 yes but there's way more content in the Dreamcast/PC port of the game

Raul Julia's Live-Action Street Fighter Movie 😉

I love this movie

I like the new design, it's much more realistic. I always thought the Perfect Dark Zero design looked silly but the original was pretty good. More importantly the game is looking very promising and it's first person so you won't be seeing her much anyway.

In any case, where's the Doom guy comparison articles?

I loved the one we got in the west on the SNES and the first N64 game was great too with a nice mix of gameplay styles with the mecha boss battles

I'm looking forward to this, especially as it seemingly plays the Namco carts as well and will be perfect for my desk

Smart of Atari to keep away from that nonsense that is the Amico.

Also let's be honest, that will never see a commercial release, it's digital only with no way of distributing games, they no longer own any games, they have no money to build the thing and they have huge debts, one of which is tied to per unit sales of it should it ever come out.

Amico Home on the Play Store shows only 1K+ downloads, so overall they have no money, no games, no staff and no market

I've been using Nvidia's RTX HDR to great effect already, Luigis Mansion and Star Wars Rogue Leader are pretty spectacular with it on, still nice to see official support though

I don't buy their excuse, there's nothing unique about about a 3DO disc and even if they were having issues, well first of all why aren't you checking you can make them before trying to sell them? Secondly they should have communicated this to customers in the year between taking their money and shipping some CD-R's and offered refunds

Absolute disgrace of a company

Let's face it, most of that list is absolute nonsense and I'd say its very difficult not to put Mario top, regardless of what platform you normally play.

Personally and not necessarily in order, some of the most iconic game characters would be

Mario
Sonic
Pac-Man
Donkey Kong
Sub-Zero
Chun Li
Ryu
Lara Croft
Crash Bandicoot
Link
Luigi
Master Chief
Doom Guy
Nathan Drake
Megaman
Leon S Kennedy
Cloud
Pikachu

He's probably just rounding the number up, if those other numbers are correct, it's highly doubtful it sold the extra 5 million but referring to 157 million as 160 is quite likely

My personal top 10 would be

1. Resident Evil 2 (PS1)
2. Resident Evil (Gamecube)
3. Resident Evil 2 (PS4)
4. Resident Evil 4 (Wii)
5. Resident Evil 7
6. Resident Evil Code Veronica (DC)
7. Resident Evil 4 Remake
8. Resident Evil Village
9. Resident Evil (PS1)
10. Resident Evil 0

@Goat_FromBOTW I've been seriously tempted to get a Quest 3 partly for things like this but also to connect to PC and some of rhe mixed reality stuff looks like a lot of fun

This console will never exist and who do they think is going to buy that awful controller just to play some rubbish touch screen mobile games? Almost nobody has even downloaded their app.

These crooks or Phil and whoevers left to make the tea should be in jail for stealing all that money from investors

I'd much rather have a skippable splash screen that I'm never going to pay any attention to than it being censored. That said if you're genuinely getting upset about a 25 year old video game and how it may depict someone, then you need to get over it

I enjoyed this even more than FFVII and it remains my favourite in the series. The junction system whilst easy to exploit, was a lot of fun and allowed for great customisation and I've probably spent more time playing triple triad than many full releases

I've not played enough of the new one yet to score it but I will say its very good so far.

Yakuza 0 is currently my favourite overall with some truly brilliant side stories and I really enjoyed Like A Dragon Gaiden and it's story tieing everything together, plus it's great arcade games

Sega's arcade output was ridiculously good and picking an absolute favourite is nearly impossible. Sega Rally would probably be my personal favourite but there's no denying how incredible Daytona USA was upon release

Best soundtrack ever

@GeneJacket that's weird, I just remembered seeing pictures of it when I bought their Saturn adapter a while back. I wonder if it just got cancelled then

@GeneJacket Mayflash did make an adapter for Dreamcast controllers to work on PC, I've no idea if it's still available though. It's certainly the forgotten one by and large

@GeneJacket retrobit themselves showed off one a few years ago which looked closer in design to the Saturn 3d pad

It's kind of pointless as a 3D Saturn controller if it doesn't work properly for those games, if the triggers are disabled then that renders Panzer Dragoon Zwei unplayable with this.

Have they fixed the battery drain issue from their previous Saturn controllers? On those you have to manually turn them off before turning off the console, otherwise they appear off but the battery will be dead before being able to play them again

@michaelf yeah basically this, back then it was all about the bit wars separation generations albeit woth some outliers such as the Atari Jaguar but for the more popular consoles it generally worked. I've never once thought of them as a number outside of Playstation conveniently numbering theirs and its fairly obvious what existed alongside each. Before that I just think Atari 2600, then Master System/NES and on to Megadrive/SNES

It really is a fantastic emulator and for me actually preferable to real hardware, at least on modern displays as many games had interlaced resolutions, making them blurry regardless of upscaling. This is easily eliminated on this emulator and makes games like Virtua Fighter 4 look amazing

Golden Axe Revenge of Death Adder should have come to the Saturn and is one of many I'm surprised hasn't made it to home consoles in a compilation

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Easily the best announcement I've seen for some time. I'm a huge Sega fan and cannot wait for all of these games
