Any PC-98 fans here? What's the best way to play PC-98 titles nowadays? Actual machine or emulator? What are some good titles to check out?

Also I heard NEC ported Unix System III and V to PC-98 but I can't find a copy of these operating systems anywhere.

Not quite emulation or gaming, but a brand new demo for PC-98 called New Horizons released earlier today at Deadline 2026, winning first place in the Oldskool Demo competition!

What is your favorite final boss in retro games? I have great memories of beating Baby Bowser from Yoshi Island (SNES).

 No.2016

I don't know if it's my favorite, but very memorable. Fondly recall having great trouble with the optional content of this game, I think I could do it easily now though.

In recent memory it has to be Crumbling Tower of Pizza and just the entire Final Boss as a whole. Being able to cut each boss battle's health in HALF was such a lethargic feeling when initially seeing there was a Boss Rush lined up. Really turning the concept on it's head by making YOU the boss battle. The whole last segment just does a good job at feeling exactly what Peppino is feeling all the way through.

Who has played "Danny Sullivan's Indy Heat" before? Is a 1991 arcade racing game in the NES, this game is entertaining and is one of my favorites on the NES.

What are your opinions about this video game? I’d also like to know if you’ve played it before.

AI War is an asymmetric strategy game where a player(s) squares off against two AI's in an almost hopeless battle. You get to conquer the entire galaxy in an extreme underdog scenario. Some people even called it the Dark Souls of strategy games - completely seriously. Anyway, it's really hard and it's got multiplayer, so obviously let's play it.

Get it on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/40400/AI_War_Fleet_Command/ (75% off until Jan 5)
Get it on GOG: https://www.gog.com/en/game/ai_war_collection
There's crossplay between Steam and GOG, so it doesn't matter which one you get. You'll need all expansions to make it work out.

Here's a good video summarizing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWVqfdG3uTY There's a good wiki if you look and a bunch of tutorials in-game to get you started.

If you dudes live in Russialand I can gift you a copy on Steam. You'll have to link your profile for me to add you. Otherwise, I'm sorry, I can't gift across regions and I don't wanna yo-ho-ho things or promote that anymore. Don't worry about ping, unless it's an extreme case it doesn't really get all that bad (if it does, there's game settings to compensate. Sorry, Venezuela-anon.) Also, it's sysreqs are so low it can probably run on a thinkpad.

We can do a multiplayer game at Friday, at around 11 AM GMT. https://time.is/GMT . I'll try to post it here if it happens, or if there's some emergency you'll hear about it. Cheers, dudes.

It's a slow, yet persistent grind. We've conquered the upper annex - AI won't send their assault there now. However, some other puny humans or something want our help. They're threatening to explode us via AI annihilation if we don't capture and subdue them. Can we make it in time to capture them?!? Find out on the next episode of AI War Z!

Notice in advance: tomorrow there will be no host at 2 pm. Please join up the day after tomorrow!

If anyone's wondering what's going on, we didn't die. We got everyone's contacts, so this board wouldn't get spammed every time there's a need for three people to get together. You can still spam this thread and join in that way at 2 PM, though.

Anyway, we got some things done. We gave up on expanding into the lower annex and secured some space. There's some very tasty fabricators - MLRS Tier 5 ships, Space Tank Tier 5 ships, Tier 5 Flaks and Spiders. We're practically near the AI Homeworlds now.

This game is kinda fun!

anyway we failed.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS LIST:

Played a Warp Jumper (!) game
Turned the game into an RTS by clearing almost every planet
Captured tons of fabs and special goodies
Parried numerous Cross Planet Attacks's
Deleted one AI homeworld, almost deleted another
Ran out of metal near the finish line and lost
Reached an AIP score of 1500+
Blew up giant AI fleets with nuclear missiles on our own planets (4+ TIMES)
Got overwhelmed and perished in a blaze of glory

see you next time…

AI war gaming is still alive and running! Reply in this thread to tell us you're willing to join. Game settings rights moved to me this time so we're playing with even more ships and funny options. A 2-player campaign is currently ongoing with golems (superstrong starships that you have to find and repair) so newcomers have option of hopping in as fleet commanders or requesting fresh campaign, which is perfectly fine too!

Why has no one in this thread told op that they are called imageboards or BBSes and not "altchans". Has to be one of the dumbest phrases ever, it implies that there is a "main chan" that other sites can only attempt to replicate. Bone head!

Maybe you haven't used anonymous imageboards long enough to understand? Calling them "alt chans" has always been controversial as it lowers the standard of the site to just "4chan copycat" and essentially shifts all glory to 4chan. Any site that willingly calls itself an altchan immediately devolves its image into just a comparison. In OP, 7chan is really the only one I would say fits the term "altchan".

4chan is an altchan of 2chan kek
