Even if it wouldn't use the Golden Axe IP, this could be an awesome game! Really hoping they'll go forward with this in some form or other.

Sure it's a true gem to find games that are 40-ish years old sealed. But paying such amounts for them, I wonder if the people buying them are really collectors, or just so rich they don't know what to do with their money. What a world.

That's pretty nifty, but the EJRTQ colorization mod makes the game look like a DX version and has better colorization than what I'm seeing here.

Never heard of this game, but as a huge Vampire Survivors lover, this seems right up my alley. Gonna wishlist this one and keep an eye on revieuws!

This reminds me that I need to play Wily Wars on NSO on the Mega Drive app... I really liked it and never was able to play it (legally) before.

That's a long video! But damn interesting to see the comparison. I am and always will be a Nintendo fanboy, but I did own a Master System and love a lot of SEGA games. I never really understood the hate between SEGA and Nintendo as a kid and still don't as an adult. I enjoyed playing SEGA games at school mates and they enjoyed playing on my SNES, so there was never any animosity in that regard. I always thought it was more between the two actual competitors.

This will definitely be an interesting watch (in multiple sessions).

The one thing I lived for in this game was the super addictive card-game. Some monsters could only be turned into cards once, but man, was it an awesome experience. I really want to replay this game sometime soon on my Twitch channel.

Does anyone know if there's a Gargoyle's Quest DX? That's something I'd definitely be interested in playing, since I love those games

Sad that this can't be viewed anywhere else. I would love to see the documentary, but only being able to order it on disc for € 40,45 seems like a very steep price for such a niche documentary. I understand that making documentaries (good ones) costs a lot of money and time for research, interviews and editing, but it's a really steep price...

What an eye catcher and a great find! Never knew about this and I know a bit of Street Fighter trivia.

To be fair, I don't see much semblance to DKC at all?

@Damo me and my friends always call them beat 'em ups, because that's what you do in those games as well, albeit they're 1vs1 unlike the games mentioned here. Even Wikipedia refers to them as beat 'em ups. To be fair, I think it's the main genre, with 1vs1 and side-scrolling street brawlers like these being subgenres.

Aren't games like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat beat 'em ups as well?

I probably don't have a popular opinion when I say I never really liked Mario64 that much and thought Super Mario Sunshine was a much more polished experience overall.

Ocarina of Time was a much better transition to 3D and Metroid Prime was definitely a great leap forwards, so that's where my vote goes.

I remember paying something like 200 Dutch guilders for Street Fighter II Turbo for SNES back in the day. That's about 90 Euros. Those were some crazy times for poor old 16 year old me. I had to deliver a LOT of newspapers for it

Remember playing this one. Sadly I never owned it, but I had a friend who did and whenever I could, I would borrow it from him. Good times and probably the best pinball game on the Game Boy, if you ask me

I've tried to get into Altered Beast a few times, but man is it a sluggish and daunting experience. I love the concept of the game, but the execution is pretty poor when viewed from a modern game design perspective

It really depends on how old the games in question are, really. I am all down to buy compilations and collections. My Switch library is overrun by them. Having said, that sometimes there are games that are ancient and not nearly as easy to come by legally. Games that I have paid for in the past, or sometimes even multiple times, I just don't have those systems any more. In those rare cases I love firing them up on my Raspberry Pi and don't feel guilty about it at all.

Miracle Boy, Wonder Boy, Monster Boy. Boy oh boy oh boy...

Personally I think the series pinacle was Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap. I played Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom, and although it was a fun ride, I really missed some of the transformations from the ultimate classic that is Wonder Boy III. It was probably the best game in the entire series and you can't convince me otherwise.

This new game is going to need a lot of polish, judging from the footage. I wish the developer the best of luck with the project and I'll keep an eye on it for sure. The love for Wonder Boy is great to see

The improvements of the SCART cable were just amazing. I loved everything about it and it solved the fact that you had to plug in 3 separate cables, compared to composite

This isn't just a Zelda-like, it looks like a blatant rip-off that needs a whole lot of polish. While I really appreciate the effort people put into making games look and feel like the games we all love, I feel that this game lacks a lot of originality to set it apart from its source material.

Literally tens of people did not know this. Millions of others did. Based on a true story.

I'm glad they fixed this. It seems like a bit of an oversight, but the people deserve the credit where it's due.

The black cartridge was so damn sexy! I've got some really fond memories of Killer Instinct. It definitely was on par with Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat for me, back in the day

I remember playing the first instalment of these games on PC for some reason. It definitely was a hard game. I don't think I ever made it to the end. Nice to see they're coming back, but calling a bundle of two games a collection is stretching the term a bit, if you ask me.

Oh no.... Anyway, let's focus on important stuff now.

@johnvboy On that we can both agree!

@johnvboy Well mostly because this system has lost all its relevancy. I loved the article about the Evercade. But this thing is just a dumpster fire and I don't think it needs more attention than it already got. That's all

Why is NintendoLife even reporting about this? No one cares about Intellivision and their stupid Amico.

A friend of mine recommended I get one, as I'm a big fan of retro gaming. I still haven't, seeing as I've got an ever growing backlog on my Switch already and Nintendo's other legacy systems. I'll tune in to this video and see if I can be convinced to pick one up.

Bold to even attempt to compete with Nintendo for the family gaming market. They've pretty much monopolised that share of the market and I doubt that's going to change any time soon.

I was always so bummed by Super Mario Bros 2's ending.
"Did I play this game, only to find out it was all a dream?"
I still get angry when I even think about it.
