!! Theres a ton of shooters on MAME, but play these Cave shooters and you'll never need to play anymore games: DonPachi DoDonPachi Esp.Ra.De Guwange Try this link for little descriptions though. It was compiled by another forum I visit, to list games on MAME: http://www.gamerwiki.com/index.php/MAME_ROM
I didn't read this thread before posting, but ignore me and listen to kontact. Can't wait for my PC to get fixed so I can put some hours into DoDonPachi.
Awesome thread I've been meaning to build myself an arcade box and chuck a mame emulator in it for ages... is Ninja Gaiden the same as Ninja Warriors? (two robo-ninja chicks, cut-em-up) maybe it was named differently here. Space Harrier Pang World and another +1 for Altered Beast I loved that game!
thanks guys, there is some stuff on here I will definitely check out as for Splatterhouse, I actually have a sealed copy for the Turbografx that I have never opened
That's awesome, I still got my TG16, what I'm after is a Virtual Boy though. I seem them from time to time, but never when I have the cash.
thanks to lash for the memories of altered beast & strider!!!! also NARC,,,xenophobia,,,tubin'',,,moon patrol,,,satan's lair,,,pitfall,,, marble madness,,,
I had my son download Altered Beast for his Wii recently- of course, I’m entertained, but he thinks it’s ridiculously simplistic…however, it has made “WELCOME TO YOUR DOOM!” (shouted in a very nasal evil wizard voice) a new catchphrase at our house….. Joust is my favorite video game ever. Let the laughter begin.
Bust a Move! I love that game immensely, I even beta tested 3 or 4 versions of the game for Acclaim and stillllll love it.
BEST.GAME.EVER! I would play this game for hours when I was a kid. Crappy graphics but fun as hell to play (but that is what's most important).
is rolling thunder the one with the tall,,thin guy with the long spindly legs?? and the hooded bad dudes?? if so,,love that game too....
definitely rolling thunder!!!!! love his jumping style!!! very slick.... ok,,,what about this game called hydra?? crazy flying game where you had to deliver toxic test-tubes.....controlling this hybrid boat/plane
Many moons ago I made a few "Hacks". I don't know if the work under the latest version of MAME. They might be still available out there in webland somewhere... Abortman, a hack of Pacman Oh here>http://misfit.oldos.net/ And a hack of Galaxian. Squidlaxians (Works under Galaxians)
Some of my favs: Golden Axe: Revenge of Death Adder Magic Sword Knights of the Round King of Dragons D&D: Tower of Doom D&D: Shadow Over Mystara Violent Storm Vendetta The Simpsons Ikari Warriors
Yeah those multiplayer Capcom quarter munchers were lots of fun. There was also that one where you could play as Captain Capcom or whatever or the baby in the mecha... Wow some great games being mentioned in this thread. Ninja Warriors was indeed a different game. I think it was by Data East? Could check klov but I'm lazy. That was cool that you could take damage and your "ninja" would start looking all Terminator like. Oh, and Dragon's Lair II Time Warp was far superior to the first (Beethoven's studio, Alice in Wonderland? hello!).
you're thinking of Captain Commando, that's the one where you can play as the baby, the ninja, the mummy, or the regular guy.
actually,,it was all about the knife-wielding PCP clowns.... oh,,the anti-drug irony all the kids playing it were stoned & on liquid acid....
Puzzlefighter had me at the arcade for hours just working clowns over.I love that game sooo much, Im buying a PS2 again just to play it and all the other street fighter games. Favorites: Puzzle Fighter Bust a Move(bubble bobble) Captain America and the Avengers Marvel Vs Capcom Darkstalkers and this game where you could play the Cowboy or his Native AmericaN Buddy, I dont remember the name , but it was a side scrolling old west type game, the first or second level had you riding your horse next to a speeeding train shooting bad dudes.Any one know what the name of the game is?
TONS of great games posted in here. I miss the classics. I started with an NES. My favorite systems of all time are the Sega Saturn and Sega Dreamcast. They both just had so many amazing games, first and third party. I was always really into any fighters. 2D or 3D, I loved almost all of them. Dudes, if you have an Xbox 360, be on the lookout for these games on Xbox Live Arcade sometime in the future: Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix and... Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix!!!
