@JumpingJackson Don't forget Power Stone...

Focker > Falcon

Good luck to them though, I say, anything has to be better than the utter dumpster fire that was the AEW Wrestling game.

Well, Kojima spends half of Death Stranding 2's narrative being salty about Metal Gear Solid, so that doesn't surprise me.

@Fallingshadow Really? I never knew that.

@NylonFemboy Definitely the beginning of cracks appearing. More so now we have broken sh1te like RedFall.

Does the SNES port of Space Invaders hidden inside the Gameboy cart not count as exclusive?

Considering no one has ever shown definitive proof that they own the rights to NOLF, I'd just publish it anyway.

I'd claim the game is now Abandonware, and I have done enough due diligence to re-release it in the public domain to do so.

Arkane's "Prey", was never intended to be called Prey, Bethesda only added the title later on in development as they believed it would boost sales.

Hence, why it has absolutely nothing to do with the original 2005 game.

I just want them to FINALLY release the arcade code for Parasol Stars.

@h3s Yeah, I got mine from Amazon Japan.

@h3s Ah wow, I have mine still, too much of a hoarder to let them go

Did you have the stick too? that's REALLY nice.

That is amazing! I'd imagine that what an N-Gage port would have looked like if one ever existed.

@slider1983 I don't like the graphics to be honest, a lot of the stages they just feel half-finished.

@h3s Most of the games are the Japanese language ROMS though, aren't they?

I remember buying the Japanese version from CEX's stall at Wembley Market, long before they became a store.

But I do remember being annoyed they censored the blood in it. But loved the anime overhaul.

The SNES port of the sequel was such a comedown from playing this, I didn't even bother buying it, it felt so half-assed in comparison.

@Bod2019 They said "Domestic release" the Astro City Mini was a Japanese exclusive, though technically Limited Run released the system in an English language box a while later. So, maybe?

Sega really dropped the ball with their Mega Drive Golden Axe sequels. The second was "alright", just a rehash of the first game, probably using the same engine.
And Golden Axe III was cheaply made trash. No wonder why they never released it on cart in the West.

Baffled me why they never used the Streets of Rage 2 engine for any of the sequels. (Possibly as Aspect owned it, but I'm sure they'd have been well up to create one)

Limited one released a physical copy of Virtua Fighter 2 recently, but it literally was a twelve-year-old copy of the Xbox 360 game.

@zidane4028 Aah, interesting. Thanks!

I wonder if that original ROM is out there?

Is this anything to do with the team that made the ARMiga about a decade ago? Looks quite similar.

That's quite impressive, feels like a game made for the SNES CD

I thought this game was released in the US?

TBH the only truly decent retro remake companies are Nightdive and M2.

Digital Eclipse are finally starting to get better, but still not in the others league just yet.

Legends of Wrestling 4?

But, it's funny Jeff Jarrett is involved with Acclaim, he's not only never been in any Acclaim WWF titles, he was actually REMOVED from "WWF In Your House" on the PS1/Saturn and replaced with The Ultimate Warrior at the last moment!

@Sketcz there was a cities of gold game for the DS i believe.

I'd also say as much as I'd like to see a lot of these games get a port, half the fun of them was via the unique controllers they used. It might just be missing if they finally get a home release.

I'd honestly like to see a port of "Victory Run", considering how much Virtua Racing was inspired by it, VR took all the credit as the first modern polygonal racing game, when it should be given to Victory Run.

Sega were even petty enough to ignore it and say Hard Drivin' was it's main influence.

That is a shame, I wonder if Rare would have hired Grotbags to voice Gruntilda, considering the character is based on her?

I spent most of my childhood assuming Kevin Toms was a football player!

There hasn't been a new Pond game since 2011, and aside from re-releasing Robocod a few more times, the character is barely on the radar.

People move on extremely quickly in this day and age, and assuming there's a market for James Pond, even more so when you're turning away the remaining people who do remember him with AI slop, is just the nail in the coffin.

Just sell the rights to someone like Piko Interactive, that's the only way you'll make any money from it now. The franchise is dead, and you've put the nail it.

@sbeng135 That's a shame, but if it does contain any USB ports, it might be hackable.

@PKDuckman Lol, it's a small world, hey?

@GravyThief Indeed. We've lost a lot.

@PKDuckman Yeah, Sony bought Millennium so they could develop Medieval.

Always remember going to a boot sale in Hayes in the late '90s, and a seller there literally had a box full of Kieo Flying Squadron 2's for a tenner each.

I bought two, as I knew even then they'd be worth more than that.

Also don't forget the DEMO of the first game is valuable as it accidentally still contains the level select code unlocking the entire game!

I had a nice chat with Chris Sorrell around the time Deathly Shallows was about to be released. Lovely guy!

Really fascinating to hear about James Pond's history from him that I had absolutely no idea about!

How does it compare to Arcade1Up's iteration of the same set up?

Also, will it be possible to add more games to it in the future?

Very Natsume like! Feels and sounds very similar to their titles, like Power Rangers, and Ninja Warriors Again.

Sorry kids, if you want a Twin Peaks game, you're just going to have to play Alan Wake instead.

Adi Shankar, the moron who made every voice actor typecasted for future roles in Hollywood due to his own ignorance.

I'm here to chew ass and kick gum, and I'm all out of ass.

Gamewax also made Chase HQ 2, Best part is they stuck a load of Dixons and Currys stores in the middle of the US i that game

@smoreon The PAL version does too.

But the SMS port is INCREDIBLY grind heavy, it's really, REALLY bad. You can blitz through the PC Engine version. But I never understood why I couldn't progress as a kid. Even thought I was sequence breaking the game when I got to the first boss and couldn't even touch him.

I bought a Saturn copy at launch. But my copy would always crash on the boulder section on the final level. Every, Single, Time!!! So, never finished it until I bought another copy years later.

Was it a known bug?

Let's hope AliExpress starts making repro carts of it too. Let the Chinese show how incompetent and corrupt Fonzie is.

I see the Kickstarter for the "English" one is floundering.

Imagine asking that much money for a console and not even bothering adding a translation option for it.

Pretty much the same story with the Mario Kart 64 music bug!

Someone managed to get DOOM running on a NES using a Raspberry Pi installed on the cartridge.

@Sketcz Yeah, the BBC were wiping shows all the way up to the late '80s!

Ever since that Xbox One showcase, where they pushed the fact you could watch NFL on the system, and forced you to own a Kinect alongside it. You could tell the company was being lead by total incompetency.
