@RetroGames Real grown ups also don’t make kickstarters for thousands of dollars if they won’t be able to make the product come to fruition. This is nothing on the backers being more intelligent with their money, it’s Tallarico being more intelligent with setting realistic goals and expectations.

@RetroGames He has lied about almost all of his accomplishments and stolen the credit from other people. I may not have done as much as him but that’s not a hard pill to swallow since at least I don’t throw my colleagues under the bus and take their creations in as my own every step of the way.

This will either be shockingly great or one of the worst films of the decade with no inbetween

He plays and loses a single game then begins claiming he won 5 world championships in a row

seems like another reminder that emulation will always be morally viable in this day and age.

If companies don’t wanna give me access to their super old products that aren’t available anymore, I feel perfectly justified to experience them through my own means! Something like switch emulators getting taken down I can understand, but no dmca takedown in the universe is gonna stop me from playing joy mech fight on my pc for free😂

Wow this looks cool, will probably check it out when it’s finish-

Allen o’ Neil carrying the mech on just his shoulders

I NEED TO PLAY THIS GAME NOW

this looks rly cool! im all for it long as they make it easily accessible unlike what that psychopath Fonz did with Craprium lol

I simply don’t understand why you’d pay 600 dollars for this outside of a collection, when mame is free and can run these games just as well. It’s the same thing that happened with Paprium, in no way is spending hundreds of dollars on a Video Game just to play it remotely justifiable.

“Even the in-game ai art is drawn by a human person!”

What

I’m not too sad about Castlevania being Dormant since bloodstained is made by the ppl who worked under Konami and both curse of the moon games are up there with the classicvanias’ peaks like rondo and bloodlines.

Ritual was rly good too even if it wasn’t as good as the ds trilogy or aria!

At this point p much every dormant Konami franchise aside from the Hudson soft stuff and Gradius has a successor made by the people who worked on the originals, or people who understood what made the series work so well.

@NinChocolate This is being developed by success, who’s cotton sequels have all been great from what I’ve seen, so I think we’re in good hands👍

They should add a “quebecgamers” mode that halves the framerate and makes the audio super bassy and distorted so it constantly sounds like it’s taking place in a war zone

“Nobody wants to see these old 3D games because they don’t look impressive”
Oh yeah like the games YALL make nowadays look like high art too and aren’t overly ugly gray rtx bloomfests that don’t even function properly 90% of the time💀😂

I’d also love to see wanpaku graffiti get a 16 bit remake since I always loved the ideas in that game

I hate that jaiyuki world box art.

I hate it so much.

@HammerGalladeBro Fun fact! It was one of the first games developed by arc system works!

Yes

THAT Arc System Works

@MSaturn My problem with working designs was never their silly dialogue but the unnecessary changes in difficulty they made to their games that significantly lowered their fun factor just so little Jimmy would have to give the ceo of blockbuster money for his 5th wallet lol. Praying this collection gets rid of those nonsense gameplay tweaks.

@wiiware Fight'n rage and streets of rage remake too!

also Rita's Rewind omg h ohgoghuuu ouggghb that game looks so good omfg

Idk I think the game looks cool. I’d rather a series try something new like this instead of being stuck in “so retro!” Purgatory forever lol

@Jackburton1985 not really. Super double dragon and double dragon 3 were 16-bit, plus Iv has a lot of ugly cheap looking backgrounds which don’t match the well drawn sprites of 1 and 2 on the nes. A franchise shouldn’t only be 8-bit and “retro” going forward.

You know, sega going out of business doesn’t sound too bad rn

was never huge on beyond oasis' ost tbh. Felt way too simplistic and bland but that's no shade to Yuzo or anyone who likes it👍.

My favorite work of his is easily super adventure island lol.

@JMX I’d assume They’re not on PC since MAME exists and people who use it wouldn’t have much reason to buy arcade archives titles.

As for Xbox I’d assume it’s because of modern Microsoft’s nonexistent popularity in Japan and the fact Xbox is beginning to flounder as a company likely isn’t helping with that.

This game is rly fun! Plays sorta like SEGA’s eswat with the themeing and levels only with wild guns styled background shooting segments thrown in. I wish the game had more boss fights but it’s still a lot of fun!

I already got a Saturn mini, it’s called a computer with retroar-

Lmfao like this is gonna go well for them

Funny it’s called Duckstation cause this mf’s actin like a real life Daffy Duck💀

the original x8 was always one of my least favorite mega man games due to the incessent overeliance on annoying unfun gimmicks, and this fangame seems to get rid of all of that in favor for a more tightly crafted platforming focused game so im all in! No zero also isnt the end of the world to me since i dont feel hed work well with this games shooting centric level design.

IMO M2 are actually BETTER at making unique games than just porting old ones. Fantasy zone II DX, Space Harrier 2 DX, the entire rebirth trilogy, haunted castle revisisted, super bomberman r, gg aleste 3, they are a golden team for remaking and revitalizing old ips and i wish they were given more work in that regard.

im starting to warm up to how this looks tbh. obviously the og pixel art looks better but this still doesn't look bad, it's certainly better than cheap 3d models or fugly pre rendered sprites lol

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if the gwimbly episode from smiling friends/oneyplays in general had smth to do with this lol, helps the remaster looks amazing too, it’s honestly the new gold standard imo for how remastering 3d games should look!

@X68000 snes version is phenomenal barring the occasional slowdown, and the arcade version COULD'VE been good but the fact it has no continues whatsoever while also having typical extreme arcade difficulty just ruins it for me. There's a borderline between a game being hard and a game just being not enjoyable to beat, idk what they were thinking pulling that crap on an arcade cabinet.

@Poodlestargenerica or the rights to a series get bought by some goblinish stingy douche like the ppl at piko or interplay who wage legal war against anyone doing anything with the ip that isn’t them and refuse to do anything with it and just sit on it forever like the ceo from smiling friends.

@Nischenliebhaber yea compared to some of the other crap konami put to arcades like super contra, gradius 3 and rock'n rage, the japanese version of haunted castle is fairly tolerable in comparison even if it's still insanely ugly

@gojiguy I’m almost positive it’s M2. They did the previous collection and the brief footage we saw gives me HUGE rebirth vibes

“The worst Castlevania game is getting a remake”

WAIT NO WAY THEYRE REMAKING LEGENDS?!?!?!

The fact we were gonna get symbiote Peter but couldn’t because they didn’t have time due to adding this mf into the game will always piss me off

Also that unused animation of him imagining an infant and getting a nosebleed. I hope whoever animated that got their hands caught in a printing press even for Japanese humor standards that is just VILE

@MontyCircus better yet he transforms into the big blue thing but after jumping once he falls through the floor of the room and instantly dies😂

Love how ppl are angry about it being directly inspired by Castlevania as if Konami could do it better themselves let alone do it well at all😂 this looks like 100x the game grimoire of souls will ever be

oh jesus christ this is a terrible idea

No reason to buy this when retroarch is free and already emulates Saturn games damn near perfectly lol

It’s hysterical how good all these look and then beat just looks like a bloated piñata😂😂😂😂😭😭😭

Also while I don’t like limited run they don’t straight up lie to their customers like the scumf@$(s at ININ did with those turrican anthologies and being “”””””””””””physical exclusive”””””””””””””” only to release them on eshop the day after I finally receive mine from strictly limited after waiting nearly 2 years. Idc how bad limited run is, they at least won’t pull any of that snake oil salesmen garbage with what they release.

This is really cool and I love that they have the targa prototype included! But at the same time, I really hope this has a cheat menu or something because losing your weapon power when you die was insanely annoying and always prevented me from enjoying the game to the fullest since your base shot is so agonizingly weak😭

@ZZalapski If the seller wanted all that money they could’ve sold it to an archival foundation or museum, someone who’d actually benefit from having it by preserving it, and if the buyer was saving up money for it there are about 9 billion better things you could use 50,000 on, such as donating to charity, or buying something genuinely useful, or commissioning artists, or saving it up for future uses in life, not storing an important historical item on some dusty shelf like it’s a mounted elk head for christs sake. This mindset is like saying the burning of Alexandria was a good thing because “What else would they do with all that fire? Weapons are made to be used, after all”.

We need to normalize robbing people honestly

oh well, its no big deal to me, we can always just wait for the next internal leak to hit SEGA for unused prototypes and concepts😈🤷‍♂️

I swear billytime is carrying the entire genesis library over his back when it comes to these improvement patches, like almost every single game on the system has been accounted for either via an sram patch or an improvement overhaul, it's INSANE!

the unreleased snes version of this is one of the worst games of all time imo, after the first stage it spams hazards and enemies that come at you from off screen and instantly kill you with no fair logical way for you to react to them on a level that would make most kaizo developers wince. Normally I feel a little bummed out when a game gets cancelled close to completion, but I'm so glad that pure garbage never made it to store shelves and can completely understand why it was cancelled.
