Jerlene Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Old consoles are coming back in style. If you get it in store it will run you a few hundred bucks. If you get it online you can get it as cheap as $40 brand new. If you want a cheap version go to the Wish app. Trust me, in store isn't much better. I bought a new Sega brand new from Officemax and it sucked. I played for a total of 10 minutes and ended up selling it. But were you one of the people that gave into this fad? They have the old Nintendo, the original Playstation, Dreamcast, etc. It was a major throwback. Loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sold those sega ones in staples as well, I think its just a rip off of the real thing I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerlene Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's a rip off of the real thing. Looks legit though. I bought one of the cheaper ones and the graphics made me feel like I was back in the 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UleTheVee Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Uhm what is the Dreamcast one you guys are talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthHazard Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Honestly, no. The nostalgia is nice but I just wouldn't enjoy the games as much I would have back then when I playing those games on older consoles. One good example is Grand Theft Auto. I bought San Andreas for the PlayStation 4 and haven't touched it since because it's just not the same. It feels weird and the controls are annoying so I just don't enjoy playing it as I would have a while back on the original consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Some of the remakes that happened with Resident Evil, DOOM are definitely good and they tend to be more effective on the gameplay side. So I'd say it's worth trying as well. I don't mind playing them. I think this year pretty much good games are out. I'd say that there seems to be plenty of good games that need to reboot or atleast make sequel of if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I finally did. I got FF8 on Steam and play it on my PC a hell of a lot. I freaking love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 We also don't have much options in the case of remakes because they make money too. And people want better graphics which is reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaynil Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Console wise, yes. WE just got a lovely original X-Box that is working well so I intend to juice the hell out of that. I skipped this console back in the day so it is ice to have a touch for it. I bought an Atari 2600 game too from my childhood: Skiing. Now about games, I had a fixation for Final Fantasy 9 because back in the PS days, we accidentally broke our third disk for the game and that was really heart breaking for me. I bought it digitally where I could until I realized what I was doing and had to keep myself in check with it, with the remakes of FF coming to the Switch I can't deny it is tempting... Tht said for many of the switch games, they are usually cheaper in the other consoles, steam or older devices, so I think it is better to compare before spending our money.

skyfire Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I think often the remakes are also too much pushed so they are not even worth keeping up with as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARx182 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 The concept of remakes sounds great but in actual fact, it isn't. I bought the remake of Star Wars Battlefront 2 because I owned the original version and honestly, it just doesn't feel the same. Sure, the graphics and quality is better, but the feeling is null.

DudeThatsErin Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Most of the time I don't. I prefer to play the originals and not the remakes. It really depends on the game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just watered down to nothingness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamarr the strelok Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I tried the new version of Vice city when it was re made.Fucking awful. The 'new' version had graphics that looked like crap. I had to go through 3 cut scenes when I died and then the controls were so bad I'd just die again and go through the same 3 cut scenes to get back to where I was. Uninstalled immediately after a few time going through that crap. Just a cash grab from Rockstar/take 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
