@Bonggon5 totally agree he could have made himself just a custom shell to put the new machine in not gut an old console. Grid studio are just a bad if they are using real consoles to make their so called art!!!!!
Border Down needs a re-release it is by far the best dreamcast shooter. I would be surpised if they don't release it on PS4 given the sales in japan are still very high
As a reminder if you consle is in warrenty you should alway use the offical repair service. Not sure how I feel about CEX the are the main villain for controlling the retro prices at the moment.
I have a broken saturn model 2 modded which I been told is unfixable in the past.
My bro's japanese snes recently failed we think it's the gpu it still works but all the colours are wrong on screen
I would hope you check gamefaqs in future one of the best site for cheats.I Unlocked this all years ago you only need the medal on Venom on Expert Mode, Venom 2 was pretty easy to do. Getting all the medal on Expert Mode gives you the alternative title screen.
Headhunter on dreamcast felt a bit spy ish. Think you are right their are very few Operation Stealth on the amiga was spy based but that was more a point and click.
Always great to see a konami game being added to the arcade archives. I know you interviewed them a while back is anyone able to dig into the reason why a number of the ACA neogeo games got a xbox release and not a PS4 eg 3 count bout, riding hero. in europe. Ninja Gaiden was only released on switch in europe
should that not say PS4 & PS5 given the games are being released on both consoles at the moment. The job they are doing is not great legend of dragoon was released in an awful state. Many of the other have needed a number of fixes as well.
@rob7979 this was due to a bug in the arcade version which meant the difficulty settings did not work. So it was always set to hardest no matter which option was set. Hence the arcade was not that popular for SSF2T
Something not mentioned is that the saturn version of kof95 was so close to the arcade. This caused some backlash by neo geo fans as the saturn version was better than the neo geo cd version and a few fans questioned what was the point of owning a neo geo cd. Hence why later Kof's on the saturn where more inline with the neo geo CD versions. The rom cart would have allowed them to be near perfect.
@mariteaux I totally agrees history should not be censored in any way. We need to learn from the mistakes of the past or we will be doomed to repeat them. I don't see the point of this warning indeed if they feel the need to have them they should be in the store before purchase. That said Timeextenstion has missed the point here tomb raider has been released based on the openlara version and not the orignal as this is a recreation.
Yet Sunset Riders, Commandos 2, and Street Fighter 2 have all been released with censorship in recent version. Arcade Archives even delisted super sidekicks 2 games due to it containing references to Taiwan and the Republic of China.
This is far worse as they failed to mention the fact the games where censored. Pinball FX also censored a number of Midway tables but at least they mention the fact as this was due to ratings issues.
King of Fighter 96 with the arranged sega saturn or neo geo cd soundtrack. Really is the best anything after 2000 when SNK went bust is just soul less.
Japan only looks like this is not getting a UK release so joins the list of 16 games not available in the UK, 385 are available on switch at present and for PS4 its quite a few less. xbox only got the Aca ones
Sega going multi format was a complete mess and left their fans in no man land. Releasing games on different formats was a complete disaster. Virtua fighter 4 ps2, spikeout xbox, billy hatacher gamecube. They needed to release games on just one format or all. Indeed sega tried to get microsoft to included dreamcast support Chairman Isao Okawa at the time even met with Bill Gates.
Can confirm a wild thing saturn joypad will also work to unlock the bonuses. Also if you are very fast you can do it with any pad mashing the start button. Found their are at least 5 games with extras.
I have never heard this mentioned before that this controller unlocks features in games. I have all 3 bomberman saturn games as well. Hudson released quite a few saturn games so maybe there are more will need to track down one to see if it does work.
I have to agree with this list Daytona USA is still one of the best racers and one of the few that allowed 40 cars on screen at once.The original Sega Rally is close but all the other poster fail to name a better sega racer. Daytona 2 and sega rally 2 where let downs. Virtua racing was good not great. touring car was the same. The original outrun is a classic but failed to have the impact of daytona in terms of the stages. Scud race was good. At this point your now into the more obscure racers like le mans or indy 500 both of which I only ever saw in one arcade. I doubt most of the poster ever played them.
Can you try looking into the releases a bit more. As not all arcade archives games get released in europe or the west last week's mighty guy has yet to get a PS4 release in europe. Ninja Gaiden was never released in europe on PS4. metrocross was not released in europe at all. Their annoucements seem to apply to Japan primarily.
