The RETRO Gaming Thread!

I thought this also up until this week. hyperstone heist is faster and harder and I enjoy it slightly more. Also said it in the ps thread but after playing the new turtles collection shredders revenge is the best in the series. The combo system makes that game.

Shredders Revenge is simply a beautiful game man. They got everything right with that release.

The NES version of Karate Champion wasn’t very good though. I was disappointed after a wasted rental.

Spotted these cool action figures. Pretty neat!

Nice! Is it just me, are action figures on point nowadays?

Randomly popped into my head today.
Video game nostalgia >

You’re absolutely correct! There’s better tooling for them and they haven’t made better characters than the ones from the past, imo.

Happy 70th birthday to Jimmy Connors.

Less than one week to go and I'll be retro game shopping in Japan! I'm super excited for this again.

Hopefully I'll be able to do it with Kaho Shibuya and she'll IRL stream it! I'll be sure to link it and share the knowledge/shopping fun with you guys if it happens.

I forgot! I got this recently in a trade during Evo 2022!

Randonly found this complete in box GameCube game. Cost $6.99 but grabbed anyway since I didn’t have it. Looks like it could be fun.

^ The "revamp" of Space Harrier II sounds interesting.

3D was definitely better on PSOne.

Those 2D titles were missing so many frames of animation. Marvel Super Heroes supported the Saturn 1-Meg cartridge expansion. But X-Men vs Street Fighter was the first to support the 4 Meg and led to a very close arcade experience. The only title that was puzzling was Street Fighter Alpha 3, which had some weird slowdown. But oddly it was the closest to the arcade sprite size and gameplay wise (PS One and Dreamcast had less broken V-Ism and other stuff).

The Saturn had the superior 2D fighting games.

And the better six button controller lol. Obviously, the PSOne controller was better for 3D games, which the PSOne had in spades.

When I visit an arcade, this is always one of my favorites. If it’s available, I will play.
