A review of this old-school action platformer by Capcom, originally released on the NES and now available on the 3DS Virtual Console.
Ben from Netto's Game Room looks back at seven more 3DS games that "should really be brought to the Nintendo Switch 2."
"That’s not how you launch a system".
I wish we lived in the Alternate Timeline where Sega was still a dominant force in the console space and it hadn't been Microsoft.
Saturn was a fantastic piece of kit... they just went a little too ambitious with its dual CPU setup. which turned a lot of developers off (at the time). The homebrew community have done some amazing work many years later, thanks to multichip experience. It is still the best platform for arcade fighters and shmups of all time. Dreamcast is a close 2nd though.
Yeah it was a interesting decision especially when looking at how dual CPU is considered a root cause of why the Jaguar was a failure.
Also the hardware rendered four sided polygons where the standard was three if they kept with triangle polygons I feel the systems development would have been easier to work with and we would have seen more third party ports in the west.
I think it was a victim of its time more than anything it saw huge success in Japan but the leadership and internal turmoil in the west meant games were not getting localised along with a focus on arcade like games were the PlayStation and later the N64 were pushing more in depth experiences over coin munching high score driven games.
I still enjoy my Saturn it was the first console I mowed lawns for and saved up for to purchase. I went so far as to purchase a used Saturn to run off an SD card. I even have a second Dreamcast modded to run off an SD card as well.
The second edition of gamescom latam brought some heavy hitters from some of the best developers in Brazil.
This was a bad game. I had it
It was no Contra or Castlevania thats for sure they were awesome. So perhaps you are right and it was not E.T Atati bad... but it sure was not good
The AVGN review was hilarious
I actually have very fond memories of this game. To me it wasn't that hard, though I've finished both Megaman 1 and Contra without dying a couple times.
Yea, I got this game under the false pretense it was like a Street Fighter game.
But it had a certain charm, if anything I wish Capcom would have featured this "Ken" in a Vs. game.
