  • Full playthrough of the magnificent arcade smash, Virtua Fighter 3. Captured from a real Sega Model 3 arcade board played via a supergun and upscaled to 4k via an Extron scaler. I believe the ATX power supply I'm using isn't quite ideal for this pcb so you might see one or two minor texture glitches here and there. I'll try and do another playthrough at a later date to show you some of the other stages/characters etc (particularly Aoi's stunning snow stage!). Please enjoy.

    A little shock and a little bit of goosebumps, that describes it seeing this coming in real time from the actual board in '96. To but it into perspective: even high end gaming PCs couldn't compete with Model 3 hardware until affordable graphics hardware appeared on the consumer market incorporating features such as T&L and multi-pass rendering.

      I mean that thing used to cost 10 000 usd at the time. Not that unusual for it to be advanced for it's time.

    This looks better than some PS2 games! What?! How a game with graphics like this came out in 1996 is beyond me. I remember watching other kids play Super Mario 64 around that time lol

      ​@@kordelas2514because sega didn't make a home version of this arcade to compete with the PS1. The stories that Sega didn't have the ability for 3D are lies. I have feelings that she didn't want to compete in the domestic market. model 3 is proof.

      @@rafaeldeleo92 They actually did a home version of this game on Dreamcast. And yes, Sega didn't have ability for 3D on a level of PS1 because Saturn hardware is way worse at it. Model 3 hardware was very expensive to produce. That is why it was only viable on Arcade market. If not cost limitations, we would likely have consoles which are one or two generations ahead in current business model.

    It's amazing to think how far ahead of it's time this game was. Even the 128-bit era consoles that came out in the early 00's couldn't match this game.

      Of course model 3 was that far ahead of its time, it was extremely expensive to produce. The cost alone made it unviable for the home market

    Still some of the best music, colors, atmosphere. and level design for a fighting game. I would also say the same about Tekken 4, but VF3 was totally innovative. Nice to see the Arcade port for comparisons to the home console

    Honestly, I feel like one of the luckiest people alive to have been born when I was.
    I saw this game drop in a cinema lobby of all places with no hype and it absolutely blew our minds, we didn't even know it was coming out and wasn't ready for it.
    Back then, this type of tech was other worldly.

    For anyone that wondering if vf4 for ps2 surpassed this , the simple answer is no, ps2 vf4 had better lighting effects compare to vf3 , besides that , stages floors and backgrounds was much more polished in vf3

    • @n64fan60
      @n64fan60 7 месяцев назад +4

      This was a design choice. Hardcore VF players didn't like the uneven fighting stages. The rest of us loved it, but it ruined the balance for them.

    • @Vectorman2X
      @Vectorman2X 7 месяцев назад +2

      Realistic fights are unbalanced , you can take real examples like a fight in the road, or any fight outside the ring.Its a matter of perception, for me vf3 was the most realistic fighting game in any way.I respect all opinions but the feeling of fighting on a stage that dynamically affect the outcome of the fight is a plus for me.

      Thanks Man! As do yours! This one's a tricky one to capture really - it's hard to get the PSU wired up for a start as it needs 3.3v in addition to 5 and 12. Then there's the non-jamma wiring. Then there's the resolution - it's 384p, medium resolution. There's only a few scalers that'll handle it properly. It's worth going through those hoops to preserve footage of this legendary game though in my opinion. Take care.

      Interesting. I'll look into that. I wonder if it actually renders in 480p or if it's upscaling somehow. Probably the latter. Would be really cool if not though!
