Honestly knowing Tommy I’m genuinely convinced this isn’t even his own house and he’s just been renting it off of someone this whole time

I dig the aesthetic of this one so much, it reminds me of space kids or dynamite headdy. Definitely gonna try it out when it releases!

I always just saw it as a random unrelated castle for ambience sake, either that or the optical illusion catacomb castle from stage 4

Death stranding on WHAT?!?!?!?!????!??!??

@-wc- a painting anyone can look at even if not in person and japanese super famicom cartridges you could only get by mailing in to someone (something that was not mentioned much if at all while the game was previously shown off) and hoping you get chosen to receive one that will likely never be uploaded for the wider public to experience are insanely different things, this is not the own you think it is bro

These corporate pigs who treat games like Star Wars films with all these limited edition botched rereleases can try and take preservation away from us, but you can never stop the preservationists and pirates, we’ll always come out on top and for every rom site you take down, another one will take its place>; )

@PinballBuzzbro What baffles me especially is that he had a spot in the recent indie showcase video, so why even advertise your game to people like this if you're only gonna make it available via this outdated darius alpha garbage. Feel bad for all the people that made this dude fanart knowing they won't even get to experience the freakin' project they got invested in

idgaf what this numbskull's intentions are you do NOT make your game intentionally hard to buy unless you want people to NOT talk about it. The same thing was done with Craprium and Demon throttle and nobody ever talks about those either. Way to actively crap on accessibility and preservation, it's not like the retro gaming scene already has enough of a @#!% problem with that already .

@Steel76 the game itself is much better than it looks, plays sorta like Megaman or black tiger but with a more atmospheric tone and slower pace with power ups as you go similar to altered beast or Felix the cat. I’d still recommend trying it out!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING RELEASE IT ON MODERN PLATFORMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’d be excited for this if Nintendo has proven incapable of even emulating the n64 library well without game ruining glitches. I want to get hyped for a new nso expansion but I simply can’t trust Nintendo with the GameCubes library as of now.

Glad to know we live in a state where blatant misinformation and false achievements can get reinstated even after being proven wrong just by threatening legal action whereas games and fan projects get lost and taken down like prehistoric animals

@RootsGenoa rather than do something interesting with expanding the original arcade game the ps2 is just a generic janky beat em up, i wouldn't bother.

On the bright side, CORE's WolfChild is another great game that imo serves as a good spiritual sequel to altered beast, even having similar themeing!

@RootsGenoa altered beast is fun imo! its not as good as other games in it's style like black belt or the ninja warriors but it's a serviceable and short little game that has great visual design and a fun gimmick. Honestly dissapointed they didn't try advancing it's forumla or anything further in future sequels like they did with Shinobi or Streets of rage as games like felix the cat and sengoku 2 show that the transformation gimmick could be awesome when twisted or expanded.

There actually is a good altered beast 2 and it's called felix the cat for the nes but ya'll aren't ready for that conversation yet ;>

This looks p cool tho! excited to see how it progresses!

@gb_nes_gamer the pc-88 version is a p generic arcade style shoot ‘em up that’s very much a product of its time, the sega cd port is a completely different game that blows it out of the water lmfao

@-wc- inin as far as I know haven’t done anything SUPER slimy but they sell retro games and compilations for unreasonably High prices and claim that strictly limited’s releases have exclusive games only to dump them on the eshop months later.

Eh. Not losing any sleep over this tbh, these were terrible mame rom dumps that had frequent graphical glitches, blur you couldn’t turn off, and virtually no quality of life improvements above a basic and slow save system. But hey, they were worthy of the Johnny Turbo name at least!😂😂😂

Eh. I respect the og versions for their historical importance, but only having these crummy versions and not the peak sega cd version is so lame, dude…

This is great but seeing ININ’s scummy name attatched to this kinda killed my interest ngl. I’d prefer not to buy steel empire for 45 bucks, thank you very much.

Hrhsgdhfn give us the Batman arcade game at some pointtttt pleeeeaaase😩

Lmfaoooo. This was a horrible concept from the start, funded by a deranged loser who only got where he was by stealing the credit from talented composers pat sullivan style. No dollar store iOS looking earthworm Jim sequel would ever make this living wii parody a worthwhile investment released or not.

me staring at the lack of undercover cops/gunforce 2 on the table:

YEAH a richter nendoroid FINALL-

It’s based off the anime

|: (

I hope these games get archived but at the same time I’m not losing much sleep over this cause the homebrew section was infrequently updated and mostly had crummy slapjobs or glorified tech demos on it, nothing like the crazy stuff people are currently doing in the community

Not feeling this tbh. Sprites have that horrid tweeny earnest evans look to them and everything is super saturated and rusty looking, all the originals personality is p much lost here. No clue why anyone would buy this over the original which is available via Johnny turbos arcade or on mame for free with better accuracy.

Especially with those amazing shadow of the ninja and hebereke/ufouria remakes out likely at the same time and Mario rpg plus paper Mario on the horizon, this is just pathetic in comparison.

This looks absolutely incredible omfgsjsjskwi, like genuinely on par with if not a little bit better than Mario wonder visually , day 1 purchase for me EASILY and I’d kill to see more sunsoft remakes in this vain, especially if they get to do their licensed stuff like gremlins 2 or Batman

@Poodlestargenerica do you have a soul or better yet, a life?

@gojiguy They had always fallen, will never forgive them for how they almost took 2 f()<|<ing years to deliver my turrican crap before they announced it on the eshop a week after🤬

Istfg if they tie games/features as timed exclusive to the physical releases like they did with turrican and wonder boy I’m gonna become the green goblin

I only know about this game due to that one taco man atari episode lol, no clue it was unreleased.

These were terrible ports that should’ve been paid from the start with how unplayable they were with the onslaught of ads, not to mention the lineup of games was pathetic as well. Not losing any sleep over this because similar to the sega ages releases on switch there’s no reason to play these versions of the games instead of the ogs via actual hardware or pc emulation.

you know if interplay took THIS down i actually wouldn't have a problem with it

Dang this is actually a rly good lineup, will probably pick it up so-
Wh-
H-
45 DOLLARS?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!

@Soupbones Also life force, gradius 2 gofer and over horizon.

Shoutouts to abandon and isolated warrior as well

No offense but putting mega man 2 over 4, 5, and 6 and return of the joker instead of the two movie games 💀💀💀💀

the original snow bros is absolutely a slog but the second is genuinely a lot of fun, so i'm definitely looking forward to this.

also if we could get a knuckle bash remake down the line i wouldn't be opposed to that : )

10 games.

10. GAMES.

only 10 GAMES?

10 games.

@KingMike Neither of the pc engine cd games were on it despite the description for darius plus mentioning it, outside of a tedious save state system there are no quality of life features, and there isn't even a gallery or history segment to anything. Also you're probably right about taito being the reasoning for the pricing they've been kinda wack lately with this stuff outside of arcade archives.

@gojiguy yeah no darius arcade and g darius are amazing rereleases, it was just the console one im focusing on

actually insane how taito keeps fumbling their legacy content every step they take recently

knowing the scum-f/(ks inin are this'll likely be 50 dollars alone and have minimal qol features or additions. Still can't get over how badly they fumbled that darius console collection |: (

every generation has an overpriced console that has nothing to offer compared to the competition and as a result is p unpopular critically.

80's it was the atari 5200 and onwards

90's it was the saturn and pc-fx

2000's it was the mattel hyperscan

And now we have the PS5!

shame this wasnt released cause itd probably have been the only good game us gold ever published

@QuackFu toonstruck had a whole segment where a farm gets turned into a bdsm dungeon. I dont recall clayfighter 63 and a half having much controversy and i was going more off of the actual content in game. Besides, clayfighter 1 and 2 have next to no offensive content in them.

@QuackFu if that was the case they wouldnt have recently rereleased toonstruck on top of working with doug tenapel to make a new earthworm jim game for the intellivision amico

@Guru_Larry Semi-related but the lego segments in across the spider-verse were literally added because chris and lord saw a kid doing insanely impressive fan made lego recreations of the trailers and hired him to do the segments. Wish companies would either do that or take the capcom route of giving the fandevs goodies as compensation.

@treos this problem exists neverending-ly in the big triple a "bLoCkBuStEr" genre that most popular companies in the gaming and entertainment industry use. I almost always pirate these big name games whereas my money is really only going to indie devs on steam and whatnot. nintendo insomniac and capcom are literally the only consistently bright spots in what is otherwise just the sequel to the atari era of 80's gaming lmao.
