@leogames not sure why it’s not just called AI coding. Why the substitution of words?

I can’t imagine completing even one level on this tiny watch, never mind the entirety of Mega Man 2! That just sounds miserable.

I can understand how single-screen games like Space Invaders or Tetris might be attractive in this format, but not a scrolling platformer.

A Long Way To Go On This Tiny Screen

@DoorToMundane Yes.

Haven’t you heard? SEGA is not a retro games company.

Well, to me they’re not an anything games company since they only use two of their IP and I’m not interested in either.

What a waste…

@JoeYabuki interesting, and thanks for posting some details of the original hardware.

@sixrings If I'm not mistaken I think someone commented in another article that Shock Troopers never got an AES release, but it is one of the launch reissue games. Hopefully that means that anything Neo•Geo is possible.

Edit: this sentiment is already posted above. My bad!

Metal Slug X, Ninja Commando, Nightmare in the Dark, Puzzle Bobble, Blazing Star. List goes on 😃

The hype is real. I just bought a Superstation One last night, and I’m on the edge of buying the NeoGeo+. Must try one for myself. It sounds like the real deal so far.

@firenze thank you very much. Appreciate it!

The only US Amazon links in the article above are for the memory cards. Will the console, bundles and games be available there too or should I go through Plaion direct?

I want this. Badly. Do I need it to enjoy the library? No, and I have the 10 volumes ACA collections. I could sell those to fund this….But I really, really dig this. Might have to order.

@Willgraham yes! I have a couple Konami repro marquees I had made up for my cabinet (they are switchable) including contra, metamorphic force, TMNT, X-Men, Simpsons, and Vs. Castlevania. The live action models with painted background look is so cool and I love the art direction. Would love a compilation!

I had the Tiger Electronics Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game and the unit itself looked amazing. That’s where that ended, unfortunately. The game hardware all had cool designs and cases but the games were absolutely terrible. But in 1991 I didn’t really care! I’m curious and might give this one a try. Think I must’ve played it on the schoolyard.

I want to see his buddy put a CD in the disc drive of this CompuWood (snicker) PC and close it. LOL that SuperSega preview is legendary. Keep the news coming.

@AnonUser I’m
Not a big MK player, but I have the Genesis/SNES carts, and what you just said about this port and the 3D0 REAL logo sounds hilarious. I might check it out!

Nintendo hates this one trick 😂

Much more fun than real golf, lol. Best golf video game of all time, I think. Exciting, with beautiful graphics and sound. Respects your time with perfect pacing. Have never unlocked this course!

“Califooooornia”

The Super Mario Bros. 3 finale and reveal of the gameplay to Western audiences was so exciting at the time that to me, as a kid, it was near vomit inducing—like Christmas morning. Lol.

No thanks…BRO!

@JJtheTexan this dude’s NES is more enhanced than its games running a Game Genie 😂

New MTV series on the way called Pimp My Console. I’d watch. Seriously, that’d be awesome.

I love it! NES is probably my favorite console ever and it’s so cool to see all these options for our old trusty hardware. I mostly play NES on my AVS these days, or even my mini PC (gasp!), but this is SWEET. Thanks for posting!

@Ks123 LRG releases routinely go to VGP, so you could always check back with them about the Marvel collection.

People like to challenge themselves, develop and apply new skills. Anyone online saying what you do is a waste of time shouldn’t be taken seriously.

I have a handful of digital and analog subtractive synthesizers. I often enjoy challenging myself to recreate (or port) patches from one to the next to see how close I can get them, and often need to for live performance, where I’ll take the digital jack-of-all instruments with me and leave the analog synths in the studio.

New bugs aside, and maybe I missed something, but seems like general complaining. Even if these costumes are terrible. Did I miss something? Either way, these remasters seem to be not the highest in quality.

Thanks, didn’t want to think that time is passing, “absolutely not” because why would that hurt someone’s feelings? Weird statement.

I’ll just hook up my PS2 with my copy. A remake wouldn’t deliver the same classic experience which is what I think people are after.

If anything, port the arcade game and make a collection like the recent MaXimum collection and I’d probably pick it up!

@BulkSlash after I got my PlayStation, Burning Road was the first game I bought with my own money for it apart from what came with it at Christmas. I think I had gotten Crash Bandicoot and The Lost World: Jurassic Park. I loved BR at the time, having played Daytona USA on a friend’s Saturn. Having rebought it as an adult, it hits the nostalgia notes but it’s pretty bad. Could have been great!

@h3s interesting, thanks for sharing!

@h3s i'm with you on the Hamster basic ROMs being good enough for me. curious, digital eclipse on Xbox but not on PS or N? can you please elaborate? i have a handful of DE retro releases, so maybe i missed something.

@MR883 i hear you that there would be some that are upset, but even with good ports, when aren't there? lol. i'd rather get a competent barebones port at a fair price because i want to play the games and encourage more releases to follow. i'll take the features if they add them, and this leads me to my next item. i don't think i care if there was a better collection in 2005 on PS2, or an online version which probably had more input lag and horrible display options in 2011. shrug

i just want the games to get an official release from SEGA so i can play them with friends and family. if they end up on a game card as a collection of games, even better.

@AdamGibson I see your point, but I don’t personally care about online play, leaderboards, servers, etc. All they’d need to do is get the ROM running on Switch and I’m happy to pay a fair price. Or…I’ll continue to play it elsewhere. But an official SEGA release for so many of these underserved games would be exciting. I wish they’d let Hamster Corporation release their arcade and console games.

Hmm. I don’t care who this character is so long as the gameplay and atmosphere feel like Castlevania. I don’t need or want the life story, or motivations in a game like this. I want a pick up and play experience like the best in the series. I really hope it’s a game I’ll complete and immediately begin NG+ because it was so enjoyable to PLAY.

If there are serious story beats in this, I hope they’re skippable and non intrusive to the gameplay. I’m probably in the minority but after Aria of Sorrow I really lost interest in Castlevania. I had a tough time completing Dawn of Sorrow which at some point felt like a chore to play, along with the later Iga games. I enjoyed Ritual of the Night, but it didn’t feel like the game I wanted, though it was overall excellent. I guess I compartmentalize late Iga and Bloodstained as an offshoot series and not mainline Castlevania. I love the Curse of the Moon games, though.

“We’re working on a fix,” followed by other corporate damage control social post. Always the same hollow apologies.

Sounds like you already blew it, lol.

Sad this practice will never change.

Them: Just patch it, or not. Who cares.

I love Cadash and its console ports. I don’t have an Evercade but I’m happy with Taito Milestones 3 on Switch and ACA Neo Geo—I believe it’s volumes 7 and 8 that contain Puzzle Bobble 1 & 2.

@cyxceven sounds like the Streisand Effect in action, if I’m not mistaken.

@Hordak the lack of stock gray seems an odd omission to me too. I wonder what N thinks of all these one off FPGA clone consoles.

@Sketcz art needs to stop imitating life for a while 😅

Generate my enthusiasm. Or was that lifted, too?

If it’s not spying and selling my personal information I don’t want it.

@janineking I wish that I could make her see…

Are you THE Janine King of Blue Stinger fame? I love that game and my buddies always made fun of me, lol. Time for a refreshing Hassy.

Thanks for reporting, but I wish for YouTube embeds instead of X. I’ll get over it 😅Looking forward to hearing more about the game!

It was me. I made it all up.

@Grackler Lol, love the Samus Belmont comment! Had a chuckle.

Space Invaders, okay. Put it in Taito Milestones 5 and take my money.

Definitely could be better… 3 was the pinnacle for me. Looking forward to Arkanoid and Ninja Kids.

@Raddle yes, good points. And $50 less is a nice deal for early adopters. I’ll take it!

Would’ve loved the option of one of these, but I pre-ordered my black unit in October 2024. I’m a bit miffed as an early adopter. No way I’m dropping more money on another. Analogue should have offered this option up front.

@JJtheTexan lucky! It looks like a really good collection but I just want the original arcade game on Taito Milestones 4. You made a perfect list so let’s hope it happens.

@Fraba @JJtheTexan I just played the Arkanoid arcade cab this weekend and have the NES game and vaus controller but I’d love a modern rerelease and spinner controller on the switch.

Also, Space Invaders needs to happen on Milestones 4. I’m not spending $70 on that one low print run collection. 👍

I hear the development team used frog DNA to complete the code.

Put this on a Switch game card and take my money! This is so up my alley.

I am excite.
