Ridge Racer on the Vita let you use the Hornet from Daytona USA, so that's automatically the best one in the series.

Even though it's also a shell of a game that you have to buy tons of DLC for to make into a proper release, which automatically makes it the worst one in the series.

And also, it's on the Vita, which means nobody will ever play it anyway.

It plays pretty well, too. Shame that it has so little content without coughing up. RR3D is pretty alright, feels kind of like Type 4.


I own this game and I don't really know why. I think an ex bought it and left it with me? It sucks.

So let's throw that out there: if I was to play one Armored Core game, which one is worth trying?

Hm..probably AC3 or AC For Answer. For Answer tends to be a bit faster.

My personal favorite is Nexus, but it made some changes to how heat management or something worked that made it a bit difficult, I can't recall. Also I wish more AC games other than Silent Line had first person modes.

I can't tell you how PISSED OFF I am at all these emudev authors that all seem to be getting dollar signs now and trying to sell themselves out for a few nickles and dimes. Byuu with his wishywashy shady 'closed-source license exemptions' to Hyperkin, two of Snes9x's devs apparently having gone 'rogue' and thinking they can sell everybody down the river, good going guys, it seems there is truly no 'honor among thieves'.

poo poo like this is why more and more I feel there is no point anymore in defending this bullshit 'scene' and we all should just be better off if RetroArch/Libretro gets more game engine cores, more non-emulator related stuff, since the emulation scene just plain up 'sucks' and is full of dishonest people with a double agenda! Here you are having these guys' back and truly defending their noncommercial license and then it turns out these guys (or at least TWO OF THEM!) try to play games behind your back!

Whoever runs the libretro twitter account isn't having a great day, I guess.

I've been using a RetroPie setup for my retro needs, but I keep noticing some input latency with the Wii U Pro pad that I have. Anyone else see this? I got that cheap SNES-like USB pad to test out but its junk because it has phantom inputs.

I've only used a 360 wireless pad on my RPi1 but I didn't notice any delay personally. I realize this isn't especially helpful, sorry.

On another note entirely, I want to hear everyone's "favorite" bad port. Maybe it stands out to you for being exceedingly shite, maybe you have a big ol' soft spot for it regardless.

It's a little recent but still seven years back, but Dead Rising Wii was a real stinker. The controls were poo poo, photo taking was gone and there was something like 1/10th of the zombies the original game had. I guess it's kinda neat that they ported it to the RE4 engine or whatever, but at the same time the end result was so garbage that they shouldn't have bothered.

Double Dragon for the 2600 is a good one. It was kind of impressive. A lot of colours, still had the Double Dragon jingle and I guess it kind of looked like Double Dragon. Still played like poo poo and also I can't imagine it sold too many copies in '89.

PS2 Deus Ex. By no means is it a "bad" port but the Tetris inventory is gone completely and large levels get chopped up with Metroid Prime like tunnels that lead to a new loading area and they look particularly hokey in big maps.

But the graphics are far better, the technology doesn't look blocky and cheap, and somehow controls are really tight on a controller. It was the first way I experienced Deus Ex and I wish somehow you could extract the graphics and plant them in the PC version.

Oh yeah, I watched the Digital Foundry video on that, it was pretty fascinating to see the differences.
