Super Turbo - actual debate about Dreamcast vs. arcade (gameplay differences)

[System_1]

The list of differences is huge and most OGs don’t seem very happy about playing on DC. If the new game doesn’t come in time, why not let that tourney spot open instead of replacing it with the different game that is ST? The extra free time could be used to run a side tourney or any kind of cool special event with ST, and since it wouldn’t be a tourney, maybe a few players can get together and guarantee that this event would have arcade machines. That can be even more exciting than a tourney, with OGs playing at their full potential.

If you don’t like it, don’t play in it. Simple as that.

how did i know that DSP would be all up in this thread?

NKI can you explain the timing on round 1/2/3 FIGHT! for me? i dont understand what you have up there.

Any pro SF player who counts on footsies and spacing would have the same issues, unless they played this version for a few hours previous to adapt.

Then play on it for a few hours and adapt. You’re going to Evo, so it’d probably be good to practice on the Evo format, right?

I personally know that using the EMS brand converter, and playing MvC2, it adds considerable input lag to the point that I actually notice. Keep in mind I didn’t notice the 4 frames of input lag on CCC2’s version of ST.

Either you’re the biggest idiot I’ve ever encountered or you’re full of shit. I play Marvel on the Total Control Plus converters with the seattle crew regularly, for near eight hours straight every other friday and none of us (including Rowtron, JMar, Rattana, Preppy, and many others) have problems with input lag when moving back and forth between Preppy’s TWO ARCADE CABINETS and the DC setup(s) all night long. Back and forth, no need to adapt.

Finally, very few of the DC adapters actually work when you plug them in the first time - many you have to plug, unplug, wiggle, fuck with, etc. until they finally work. My personal experience speaks volumes here.

The EMS Total Control Plus adapters (the most easily attainable converters for PS2>DC out there) don’t have this problem, except maybe one out of every 1000 times. When it happens, it takes one unplug and replug to fix it. This is not an issue.

Is anyone else just sick of DSP spewing disinformation in his little childish tantrum over Evo being on DC, just because he wants to practice on a console and game he already has?[/COLOR]

2. NKI mentions gameplay differences but not the logistical nightmare that is DC ST. First of all, getting a working Dreamcast is now a rare and costly process.

DC’s cost less than 50 bucks, and even the most expensive one there is only 66 bucks cause it comes with a fuckload of accessories. Even the cheap ones come with various games, controllers and accessories. This was taken at the same time as this post, and there were 222 auctions for systems.

I bought a working dreamcast last week for 15 dollars on Ebay. Shipped. 99 cents plus shipping. It was NOT EXPENSIVE, DSP.
