Gun and ball gamers don't care about culture

>>12504227
I've picked a few from each sport I like and play those.
NHL 94 and 98 are my hockey games of choice. Virtua Tennis for tennis. SWOS and Hat Trick Hero S for soccer.
I'm never gonna play NHL 2002 or Top Spin or literally any FIFA game ever made because I've already found my perfect games in those genres.

>>12504227
Absolutely yes, at least when it comes to the more bombastic and game-y titles, like NBA JAM or the Mario sports games. As for the random annualized EA Sports games, probably a lot fewer.

>>12504227
How can a game be slop? Are you a stupid cunt or something?

They absolutely do. NBA Jam/Hangtime is still relatively popular, and there aren't really modern alternatives (the newer one was delisted years ago, and never was on PC, I believe)
NHL '94 still has people modding it with roster updates
The NFL Blitz games are sort of like NBA Jam equivalents, and still decently popular
kids who weren't even sportsbros would still play these games back then, OP, they were just that popular
I only played little league baseball and had a brief stint as a lineman (I don't even like football), and was never actually a fan of watching sports, but would still rent a baseball or basketball game occasionally
I get being sick of seeing the deluge of sports games at shops, but they aren't necessarily bad games, they're just obsolete, and sold in such numbers that they're every fucking where today
many were actually fairly impressive, EA's games in particular
I personally only play the more arcade-y stuff nowadays, like Super Baseball 2020 and the other SNK-made ones, Mutant League, Mario Golf, etc.

>>12504227
Yes. I would say breaking point was 2001. After that there is no point of playing sport games.

>>12504227
Sensible Soccer is still a great game and that's even older.

Anon, I...

>>12504227
I thought of opening a gaming bar with weekly competitions, one of which would be "old sports games nobody has played for decades" and rotate through different sports games from the 80s and 90s.

Another would be "fighting games no one has played". Winner gets 5 free beers or a free quart of vodka to take home or something. I wonder if people would go to that sort of event.

>>12504227
Chel 94 is the greatest hockey game ever, and if you ask a canadian, it is also the best sports game of all time.

>>12504323
If you're in a decently populous area, folks would definitely show up to do fighting tournaments with booze prizes as long as the entry fee was reasonable. The other stuff seems like a fun novelty, but you have to keep in mind that zoomers, millenials and even younger GenX are way less likely to go out drinking in a bar, or even socialize in public more generally. Your biggest demographic will probably be hipsters who are a dying breed.
I've been to a Dave & Busters in NorCal and it was a ghost town on a Saturday, so idk you have to be careful with something like that.

he could make it a boba or smoothie place

>>12504227
Back then only niggers played those games and now no one does unless they are one of those Midwestern working class whites whom are snowed in with nothing else to do.

Imagine slapping "slop" on a classic like NBA Jam. God, you're such a hylic pretending to be enlightened. Go play your bing bing wahoo, troon.

>>12504365
Do you talk to people like this IRL? How do they look at you when you do?

>>12504358
you're either a zoomchild, a terminal shut-in, or both if you believe that at all, retard

>>12504368
But I am a Midwestern working class white whom is snowed in with nothing else to do.

>>12504358
only if you owned a gaynesis. none of the kids at school with a snezz played those games.

>>12504367
Sir this is 4chan.

>>12504406
Yeah and culture war brainrot posts like yours are turning this board and all others into complete garbage

>>12504425
You can appeal to cringe but this is no party with all the girls looking at me weird. You understood what I said and I meant all of that. Calling everything slop and garbage in an attempt to incite a reaction is not conductive to quality discussion either. Fuck you.

I play them and find them fun. I'll never get why it seems most on /vr/ find it cool to hate on sports video games all of the time. A sport is just a game, and video games based on other games, like board games or card games, has always been common. Also, video games began with titles like Tennis For Two and Pong. I get the hate they get now for the business practices that are awful for the consumer, but back then? We'd have a variety of titles that played so differently, and whenver yearly titles became a thing we'd still get a genuine upgrade each year, it was exciting for sports fans.

I just went back to TECMO World Cup '93 on the SEGA Master System, which I find funny because it was made by SIMS, TECMO just licensed it in the west, and there was no World Cup in 1993. Anyways I managed to win the World Cup with a pretty strong Brazil side, they'd win the World Cup in 1994 afterall, in the last few seconds against Germany, so fun to play.

I set up NHL 94 and drunk bros pay to play every time

>>12504227
i still play tommy lasorda baseball, bulls vs blazers, nba jam: te, nfl sportstalk football 94, nhl 94 and a handful more. you fucking trash zoomer loser pieces of shit really are on a high horse about games, eat shit and die and burn in hell

>>12504227
Yeah it's worth having at least one per sport, just pick the one you like best I guess.

>>12504227
As a collectorfag who buys to play, my interests in sports games comes down to the platform. The older the systems, i an more inclined to seek out all of them per system, as i think its interesting to see how each piece of hardware attempted each sport, or an example from different devs. If its yearly stuff, im not interested in them all, but i will usually seek out the first entry in a franchise and the last, or whats generally considered the best in the series. Arcadey titles are always worth getting.

So basically i would get every sports game on the nes, but not the famicom.

>>12504358
blacks didn't play video games in the 90s because they couldn't afford game systems. the PS2 was when they could finally get into gaming. you think nogs knew who John Madden was?

>>12507281
SEGA was the better system for sports games, at least the Genesis. the only good (still worth playing) sports games on the NES were baseball titles.

nba jam is timeless and nhl 94 has huge cult status. but by and large most of these old sports titles have just faded into obscurity.

Do you faggots ever get tired of being absolutely retarded?

My older brother is a legitimate diagnosed autist and he οwns and still plays several 90s era baseball games.

>>12504227
>all useless, all complete garbage
Why? Elaborate.

>>12504227
Do the dipshits that make these retarded threads every reply again after being called human garbage by the entire rest of the board?

>>12508863
people have been playing games across every group since arcades existed
acting like an entire group just “started” on ps2 doesn't make sense
>>12509410
you wrote all that just to argue with yourself lmao

t.Midwestern working class white whom is no longer snowed in, but still doesn't have much to do.

>>12504227
I would personally play some of those. NHL 94, Palmer Golf, NBA Jam, NFL 95, and World Series Baseball.

>>12504227
I still play NHL 95 and 2020 Super Baseball with my brother

>>12504227
anon said, I’ve found the ones I really enjoy and I’ve stuck with them. Roger Clemens Baseball, Tiger Woods 04 (Xbox) and I think it’s Fifa 97 on PC. For the PC and NES game, I played them at a time a had little to no options other than, and also my brother played MVP w me so memories. Same w Tiger, I still occasionally boot it up and still have various records held by my friend circle at the time when, for some reason, we were obsessed w the 4 player. Although, at this point I hold 1st in all the records categories it’s still cool to see the other 3-4 guys gamer names on the list.

>no sports games with a cute girl cast

>>12504358
in my experience, niggers would play fighting games like crazy at the arcades and then would come home to sports games on the genesis

That's why I love this game right here, lol

all the people who want a complete SMS collection get cockblocked by some fucking basic sports game they barely made any copies of.

>>12504368
>several anons in this thread provide their own anecdotes corroborating this theory
>"N-n-no you're a zoomer who learned this from a video essay! O-or, you're a blimp who doesn't play sports!"

Blacks I grew up with almost always just talked about whichever flavor of the week basketball/football title was out at the time before it inevitably hit bargain bins.

Real

I worked at a retro game store a bit. You'd be surprised, but people do buy retro sport games.
They weren't massively popular, but they still sold. Usually it was to people trying to complete sets. Buying all the FIFAs, NHLs, whathaveyou.
The real software that never sold and just kept accumulating was the SingStar series and Kinect Adventures. Christ we had a lot of sealed copies of Kinect Adventures.

>>12511691
weird, I mostly just see anecdotes that say otherwise
like, niggers talk about sportball all the time, regardless, so of course they're just going to talk about sportsball games, too
doesn't change the fact that these games sold well and were popular amongst all demos
there're a lot of genres I won't touch, and yet I don't have to craft some narrative that they exist only because subhuman causals enjoy them
