Who needs Virtual Console when you have a PS2!
« on: January 11, 2007, 07:14:37 PM »
I just bought Capcom Classic Collection Vol. 2 from Target for $9.99. 20 classic games including Street Fighter I + II Turbo (II Turbo being the best SFII), Strider, a whole slew of no-brand fantasy side-brawlers, and the best game of all time: Quiz and Dragons! And since the 1992-era trivia is totally incomprehensible to us future randroids in the year 2007, they've updated the game with an optional new set of CAPCOM-themed trivia questions

Less than $0.50 per game? PLUS extras, tips, cheats, sound tests, and bonuses for every title? Now that's what I call keeping the classics alive!

I hope Nintendo rots in Hell, or at least starts adding some value-added content to their $8 games. And release more than one a month. Assholes.

This disc sounds like great value. VC is pretty pricey, I bought some games off it anyway and Im having fun with them. Hopefully VC prices come down or something.

Because you can't use a Saturn or Genny 6-button control pad on your PC.

VC is way too expensive, the only people who will shrug off those prices vs what amounts to abandonware are the true fans who purchase on nostalgia alone.

Fuck I do it too, but I dont pretend the purchase is a nobrainer.

Whatever. Emulation scemulation. I prefer playing console games on a damn tv, and the games I got on VC are so fucking awesome that they WARRANT a 8 dollar purchase (the only one being GUNSTAR HEROES). My fucking Genesis is borked now and I can't play it unfortunately, so 8 dollars for one of my most replayed games of all time is cheap change.

I also got Bonk's Adventure and Super Star Soldier for TG16.

The way I see it, the more I support QUALITY on VC, the more chances I'll get to snag up games I never had the opportunity to play when I was  younger (namely tg16 games). That'll make the 6 dollar price tag worth it.

R-type is next. You fegs are so damn narrow minded about this stuff. If things like VC and XBLA take off, we could POSSIBLY finally get games we've wanted for years, like Sin and Punishment. I mean, who the hell can pass up on online co-op for oldschool games? Hopefully when Gunstar appears on XBLA, it'll have fucking ONLINE CO-OP. Screw Nintendo and their anti online gayness.

idk, I only pirate only when I have to or when I wanna try something out. Here I am pirating Panzer Dragoon Saga but I'm not paying 150 + lol

If it's a really good game on VC that I missed the first time, I don't see why I shouldn't support it, because it deserves it.

Distinguished black fellow, please.  Your dumb ass couldn't wait three weeks for the superior, waggle-free version of the new Zelda.  You really shouldn't be talking about n-tards.

I'm a Zelda freak, not a Nintendo freak. There IS a difference! If I was a Ninthing, you would see me getting games for Wii, not saving up for a 360 or any of that. Shit, the only thing I use my Wii for is Gamecube games. Gamecube turbo indeed...but at least I got Zelda!

That's too bad. Any big reason for not liking it?

I've written in other threads, that the biggest rip-off of this (and future) generation is that you are unable to sell what you buy.

meh if it has enough value to me I'll buy it.

I only want DKC 1-3 on VC, those are definately worth a repurchase for me
