I forgot just how great the first one is, I remember really really liking it when I played it a few years ago but damn, it's fucking killer. As awesome as the first game is, the 2nd game is even better. I nearly 100%'d that game in two days. Played the crap out of it lol Camacho, RSG3, J-ride and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment

RegH81 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 DoDonPachi Resurrection, baby!! So many different versions of this game in one package, including my favorite soundtrack of the DDPR line, Black Label. Granted, this is only the second DonPachi game I've played but it's got me itching to try more of them. For some reason, I decided to play normal arcade version of the game on the default difficulty. Yeah, it is ROUGH. Somehow I got a 153 combo off. Baby numbers for vets at this game, I'm sure, but for a noob like me, I could't believe it. Abbachio, RSG3 and DoctaMario 3 Quote Link to comment

Even on Novice and the lowest difficulty setting DoDonPachi Resurrection is insane. My third playthrough was on one of the Black Label modes that let's you use the Ketsui ship. That thing has mad spread and it was STILL crazy how much action was on the screen from the enemies. Also, I was not expecting Ketsui music while playing this mode, but I'll take it!

I haven't played the Steam version but this version has a ton of modes including several Black Label versions of the game. Switch version also has an exclusive mode where you can fight some weirdly named boss. Live Wire was behind this port and they've been doing excellent jobs on the Switch SHMUP ports they've done.

They've come back around on that. Lynx was MASSIVE and GameBoy was big, but the Switch is pretty decent sized too and Vita isn't that far behind. I use to think the PSP was a tank especially compared to the DS lite, but after owning a Switch and Vita, it's absolutely pocket sized.

Hecatom Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) Broskis. The PSP sold over 80 million units, dunno what are you talking about? It sold better than the 3ds, and the Xbox One 🤣 The PSP was huge, which is why the Vita suffered the consequences of Sony getting cocky (as do happens with them and every console manufacturer) and trying to use the console to push a storage format, as they tend to do. Dunno if having SD's/Micro SD's would have made the fate of the Vita be different, but having that card as its storage certainly didn't help.

I've had about as much fun making characters as actually playing the game. Custom character modes in anything will always be endless fun for me. Camacho and DoctaMario 2 Quote Link to comment

PSP was popular nonetheless but how many sony exclusives does it have for psp? i can' t remember. The vita failed after doing mostly everything right, i realized mobile gaming is a different beast. Mobile gaming is mostly for children and casual gaming i figure it out that myself when i got the PSP and I almost exclusively use it for emulation and app hacks. Quote Link to comment

The DS alone sold just shy of twice that much and had far more games than the PSP did unless you factor in backwards compatibility, but even then it's still a smaller library than Nintendo's handhelds had.

Prior to the launch of the Switch. Nintendo had separate dev and R&D teams for their home and portable consoles. Sony never really did that. Nintendo was able to develop software concurrently for each platform. Nintendo rolled everything together before the Switch's launch. The PSP sold well despite getting through trounced by the DS. That said the 3DS did better overall. The PSP has didn't sell as much software as the 3DS. IIRC the PSP outsold the 3DS by 4 million units but the 3DS sold 60 million more games.

Scanman Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I've been playing the classic RTS game "Battle Realms" and holy shit this game's single player is one of the most bullshit campaigns ever. The mission I'm on (the second to last), the enemy (the Lotus clan) starts with 3 complete bases, while you start with no base, 2 hero units, 2 archers, and a few peasants. The only thing saving you in this level is that the AI doesn't rebuild their base once destroyed- the AI only spends money on units. I'm bad at RTS but damn this stuff is ridiculous. I forgot how hard old games were sometimes. Quote Link to comment
MillionX Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 That "spirit board" mode in Smash continues to be so much fun...it's just endless battles with all kinds of special modifiers/rules...for those spirit character cards and other stuff as rewards. I was surprised to beat this Legendary one a little while ago, but the setup I have at the moment is pretty ridiculous...usually I have Ganondorf + cards that give him extra weight like a super heavy character, or makes it so he breaks shields super easy...a recent one I unlocked makes it so he becomes temporarily invincible when reaching low health. haha the shit is so busted, man...plenty of characters getting KOed into oblivion in 2 good hits. I'd like to play my original characters of course but the insane power-level of Ganondorf + certain cards is just too delicious. It's like Jiren went back in time to bully saiyan-saga era DBZ characters here. They have no chance. Quote Link to comment
