  1. I mostly have Japanese games, and my most played ones are:

     

    Konami Antiques MSX Collection (includes a whole bunch of MSX games, I only play the Gradius games though)

    Metal Slug

    Panzer Dragoon Zwei

    Saturn Bomberman

    Pocket Fighter

    Puyo Puyo Sun

    House of The Dead, with lightgun of course :)


  2. I thought component cables didn't work with PAL Gamecube? Also it doesn't matter if a cable has those RCA out ports. I have one of those cables for PS2, and it works great, SCART end gives RGB picture and you can use the RCA outputs to connect to your AV receiver.


  3. Sequel looks much better, because of the better games. Who honestly likes Urban Cahmpion outside Nintendo? I really like the game crossover challenges. I wish this game was on 3DS.


  4. Maybe "Tomodachi Collection" kind of sounds more like a game than "Friend Collection", and also makes a point that it's a really Japanese game? I still wonder why they called it Ni no kuni instead of Second World or something. Gamers just tend to know basic Japanese so they know their audience.


  5. I have most of those games... when I get back to the UK I may do the N64 nostalgic trip :)

     

    But castlevania 2... Don't remember there being a second one... I had a US N64 and bought the first from a local import shop. Memories...

     

    There is Castlevania Legacy of Darkness, which is more of an expansion than a proper sequel. It even includes the whole first game basically.


  6. Ng+ is nice because of more and new enemies. I have never used any boss soul weapons because they usually have crappy scaling. Now with respeccing possible I think I might start experimenting with different kind of weapons too. I currently have claymore, lucerne and archdrake mace as my main weapons. Regular mace served me quite long but it has such bad range. I found the uchigatana to be much too slow compared to DkS 1. Maybe I'll go dex soon anyway.


  7. I finished the first round. I think I killed everything and did everything, but still I haven't engaged NG+ yet because I'll first check if there are things I might've missed. I'm level 128 and got some 60 hours clocked.


  8. I like the gameplay, except the way you stick to walls now (or rather, you don't :P). I also found the voice acting extremely underwhelming, aside from Kiefer Sutherland but unfortunately Snake didn't have nearly as many lines as Kaz.

     

    Regarding Paz's surgery, I thought it was pretty damn unrealistic but yeah it's a video game so whatever. The amount of time it took for her to recover so that she was actually standing straight was pretty stupid. I've had two laparotomies and I can tell that you won't be on your feet immediately after having your guts opened... twice! OH and what's up with Chico's 3.5mm audio socket in his chest? He listens to his heart with it? :D

     


  9. We will be lucky to get SMT4 and persona Q in Europe. I have seriously accepted that these games are not coming and the only way is to import a NA 3DS

     

    I'd guess that NIS America will pick up Persona Q for Europe, the reason why SMT4 is still stuck in limbo is because Nintendo was supposed to release it here. Maybe Nintendo didn't like the theme of the game or something, and decided not to risk it.

    Here are some of the N64 games I've bought last year (don't mind the SNES games), now too bad you can't actually see what they are with no labels! Reason I bought them loose is that I simply wanted to play the games. I have been collecting for ages but for N64 I suddenly got this fever last year and started amassing all the USA/JAP games I could find. I have given up on PAL gaming altogether because they are without exception, inferior. I want to buy one of those Hori controllers at some point, but I do like the regular one very much though so I'm not sure if it's wise.

     

    NTSC console superiority: one console plays both regions (just clip a piece of plastic) and supports S-video output. Games are all exactly as they were meant to be played, not squished and sloooooooow like PAL Mario 64.


  11. I bought Virtue's Last Reward now that it was on sale for 12,49€, it seems pretty interesting but I usually skip these kind of games since the gameplay is mainly click-frantically-everywhere-hoping-that-something-happens ^^ I got stuck in Hotel Dusk and eventually sold it. I didn't even finish Ace Attorney 3 since I continuously got frustrated with the detective scenes. It's all about triggering certain flags and you think you've tried everything already a million times but then there was some one pixel that you forgot to inspect and didn't get a certain dialog so you couldn't move forward, even if you as a player knew exactly what to do.


  12. I have fond memories of Official Playstation Magazine demo discs, back then in late 90s I didn't have money to buy new games and my parents kept a strict 1-game-per-year-policy but I did buy those magazines sometimes and they came with pretty enjoyable demos. Some demos were of course better than others, I remember Metal Gear Solid VR Missions demo being quite large for example.

     

    One great thing about demos was that they were often somewhat different from the final product, so they were more like beta versions (remember Resident Evil 2 demo that came with RE Director's Cut?), making them worth playing through once, even if you played the final product already :)


  13. I suppose it's kinda like Animal Crossing but with actual humans, and aimed at more adult users? Looks pretty interesting. I'm having hard time imagining this released outside Japan without some heavy modifications rendering the game totally different :/


  14. I still have no idea what this game is about, but since it's huge in Japan I'm totally interested. Unfortunately they will most likely cut out all the good parts, but maybe they'll include gay marriage this time, at least for the European version? ;)
