Games where when they had to tutorial, they just casually jumped out of the fourth wall. Like the Pokemon NPCs playing on Game Boys in universe, telling you to press START to open the menu. Or the voiced conversation at the beginning of RE4 where Hunnigan tells Leon she's sending over a playing manual

Not sure if they're disappearing or just uncommon When you beat a game once and then the main menu screen changes When the sequel checks for a save file from a previous game and updates stuff if you have one, not stuff like story choices in ME but smaller stuff. In No More heroes I did all the collectibles and it adds a bunch of lucha masks to your apartment. They're in NMH2 and I thought it was surprising they made gathering them all the standard design but turns out it checked for my NMH1 save file and updated it accordingly in 2.

When you put an original Game Boy game in the GBC you could press the arrow buttons and A/B to change the colour pallete of the game. That was cool, but ultimately pointless.

Doing nothing in side scrolling platformers and the characters getting bored and doing silly animations. In the Simpsons Arcade game if you don't move eventually a little finger comes out and flicks you along the screen doing damage to you

apropos to nothing posted:I miss more games being set in one place. Some still do it but I liked the long rear end games that are just set on a house like og resident evil. Would be so cool to have more games with modern tech that just simulate a big rear end building like a hospital or something you have to explore but also not just those walking simulators ohhh like grabbed by the ghoulies

Lunchmeat Larry posted:That boat section is abjectly miserable and I have no idea what they were thinking I think they ran out of ideas after the Margaurite fight tbh. Lucas' fun house was disappointing because realistically the variation of enemies in RE7 blows and by the time you get to the fun house you are bored of seeing moulded, the 3rd Jack fight was bad and then after that it falls off a loving cliff. Realistically i would restructure the game with: House leading to Jack fight in Garage Rest of house but outside is open. Basement is locked, first section of basement key is in the house somewhere, Fun house to get part of the basement key Margaurite section & fight to get part of the basement key, Jack fight in basement Straight to the labratory bit, gently caress the boat section

what's the longest life for save files carrying over from game to game? pokemon maybe? with all the right equipment, you could, in theory start a file on the original game boy pokemon and carry stuff over all the way to the current generation, right?

you can't bring gen 1 or 2 into 3 but you can bring 3 to 4 then 5 and so on

(* the fourth one has a different protagonist and is mostly just an experiment in torturing people, so you can't import to or from that game)
