Recently bought a Japanese PS1 and it's been a blast. I don't speak or read Japanese but some titles don't strictly require it. This coupled with the cheap prices are why I decided to get one. Parappa the rapper and Um Jammer lammy are even still in English on the JP version and are quite...

For context, it's a picture from Resident evil 3 (1999), spoiler alert: it's where Nemesis attacks you all of the sudden. Back when I was a kid, these slow-poke zombies were already scaring me, and this game set me up to meet this monstrosity? It's like a father pushing his son, on a bike, down...

For me, it was in a period where we didn't have internet or at least it barely (I mean it) worked. My father would sometimes download some stuff in his workplace and bring it home via USB Flash. I was a little back then, I didn't fully comprehend the emulation concept, I was introduced to...

I'm a massive Tony Hawk fan. I've played just about all of them and liked most of what I've seen. But in delving into as much THPS content as i can get, I've fully realized how different the 5th and 6th gen levels are. Look at Los Angeles and Canada from THPS3 for some examples. I haven't come...

There's been some hype surrounding this mod that made the rounds in the past two years. What I haven't seen circulate is that the devs behind it released a playable demo version in December 2023, and just released an updated demo version yet again this past December. So far it includes a battle...

A Portuguese fan translation of Idainaru Dragon Ball Densetsu (PS1) by the talented Gledson999 has been available for a while now. With that groundwork laid, an English patch might finally be within reach. Are there enough people interested to make it happen?

Greetings everyone. About a month ago I released my first PS1 project, a little shooter game (https://retrogametalk.com/threads/so-i-made-a-little-ps1-game-demo.8172/) and in that first post I said: " ... My [future game] ideas so far: ... Mahjong solitaire - I'm leaning towards this since I've...

Hello everyone. First post here so I figured I'd make it a good one. With no prior coding knowledge I scraped this little game/demo together over the course of about four months. This is only like 30 seconds-1 minute of gameplay, but I'm proud of it. I go into the whole backstory in the...

Disclaimer, this review was made in 2 years ago (Tho I slightly modify) it modify it when the fan translation just had came out, one week ago I made a PS1 JRPG retrospective and mentioned this game, and the fact I made a review about it. Ecsaform was released in 1999 for the PS1, however we...

I had come across this game in a Japanese video about the worst PS1 games, I thought I would try to play it and finish it, and I did. What caught my attention the most, besides being one of the fighting games based on the Ranma ½ series, was that it had a strange mechanic where the character...

Over the years I have played many JRPGs, this and the PSP are probably the system that I played most with, using emulators of course, today I am going to talk about them, and tell about my personal history with those games. So let's start with introducing myself and my relationship with, I was...

Does it have any trouble running some games? What other consoles can it emulate? Are Retroarch shaders available for it? If so, do they look good? If you have one, what has your experience with it been like? I'm thinking about getting one and I wanna turn it into my new emulation device. As...

I finished a proper clean of a new, traded PlayStation today, and it is LOVELY! I’m so happy to see it all come together, as well as to get matching memory cards to bring the whole gray look together. This is my current collection, featuring a giant Spyro plushie for added flavor. Many games...

Happy 28th anniversary to my favorite video game of all time, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night! Seriously, this game deserves all the praise it gets and more! Dear Konami, you better have something good planned in 2 years!

Hey there, I'm one of those guys who usually opens NFS high stakes just to drive around Landstrasse, or to go driving around Chicago at night in Driver 2 xD. Is there any other PSX game that has graphics like those, a night city atmosphere and a free drive mode?

What is your favorite PS1 game For me my favorite game is Crash Bandicoot So what is your favorite

Hello all! Today I managed to find a boxed U.S. copy of Jumping Flash! which I’ve had my eye on for some time. I’ve done the most basic of restoration work to the case (a light scrub with some goo-gone and a careful dabbing) but there are some issues with the case still. The interior is all...

it's probably the period i miss the most. gaming talking every title was an experiment and also a milestone at the same time; 2D and 3D combined in many different ways SquareSoft was imo Mida in those years FF Tactics, Xenogears, Vagrant Story, Parasite Eve... months well spent for each one...

Something that's always really fascinated me about the PSN releases of PS1/PS2 games digitally is that they aren't perfect by any means but when they do bug out it's usually for an incredibly bizarre reason that I don't see with modern emulators. And this isn't counting the many issues that...

I've noticed that Silent Hill can be run at a stable 30 FPS via Duckstation emulator's overclocking settings. This experience is better than original hardware, but with one issue. The gameplay was locked by the devs to 30 FPS, but the cut-scenes strangely were locked to 60 FPS even though the...
