The vehicles that take a million bullets to destroy you have to ram them off the road because they're armored and you can't kill em by shooting them.

Battle of the ports now with DLCs!! Great video as ever.

[Famicon version] HQ: OK, we need you to drive this weapons truck and meet our agent's car on the road so he can receive the extra weapons that he needs. Agent: Yes sir, it will be my honor! HQ: When you get close to the spy, slow down and he'll blow up the truck releasing the weapon, which he will then scoop up. Agent: Uh... And what happens to me? HQ: You'll get a very nice plaque on the wall of heroes. Agent: Yeah, I'm not so sure I like this plan.

Great job! Thanks for updating it. Sorry we all annoyed you with pointing out the missing game.

Spy Hunter - The second game I ever played in an arcade. Personally, I loved the Spectrum port..!

I was going to mention that about the McDonald's logo in the GBA version. That jumped right out at me. What a strange thing to see in the game. I'll have to have a go with Super Spy Hunter at some point. Good to see the updated video.

I did not know there was a version of Spy Hunter for the Atari 2600. Must have been either a prototype or a release near the console's last year. Also, Super Spy Hunter had that killer BGM that Sunsoft games are known for.

Thank you for the ear farts, GCB.

Where's the NES vers.... Lol just kidding! Great to see the update!

12:51 The best part. This guy has a excellent vocabulary range, but Bro, when you swear you know its crap. 😂👍

バテる フォルムら I played that game in Peru, borrow it from a friend long time ago (We used to exchange games). I did not even remembered the name of the game. Nice to see it after so many years.

The audio on this arcade cabinet is the soundchip called Cheap Squeak Deluxe and AY-3-8910 the music sound like FM Synthesis

Arcade then BOTH NES games. I never knew a GBC port existed.

Reminds me of my nan this game took me on holiday when i was a child and i was obsessed with the arcade machine with the steering wheel happy memories such a long time ago :)

Good on you, we're all pretty passionate about this landmark title. ;) It's funny to think the James Bond estate passed on this back then because the Bond games that came out in this time period weren't great. I would have chased Gomez down to make sure the deal didn't fall through. I can't think of one but too bad there wasn't some kind of generic steering wheel across all the platforms with a DB-9 port and that style of pinout, 2600/7800/VIC-20/C64... Nes port is solid enough, fairly accurate. Bad GBA port strikes again, that really shouldn't be possible. :P

Nice music on the Coleco and NES versions.

I thought the bbc version had 2 modes. One quite small as shown but another view with car and track larger. Wont change the controls though lol

Thanks for the update! ^_^ The NES version is a really good port. But the GBA port is absolutely horrendous. DSI can't even port such a simple game without screwing it up in every way.

Ahaah. an Update. I like your attitude and also that you really seem to enjoy the GBA port.

13:13 you know it's worst port when Atari 2600 version much superior.

I was just about to watch the first one then I got a notification saved by the bell I think 😊

Good edit Mark, thanks for sharing cheers...

Great to see this update! The c64 port is the one I grew up with, but I've gotta say coleco for the best one

ColecoVision > NES . Man that NES version made me rage quit back in the day and made me pissed I wasted a weekend rental on it.

Excellent episode Mark. I've not played any of these conversations thankfully but I want to have a go on that Famicom game. Hats off for the effort emulating and playing these turds 👍

I'd likely enjoy the Colecovision port, if I ever got the chance to play it...

I love these updates, gives me an opportunity to watch the whole thing all over. And it shows how dedicated you are to getting these battle of ports, right! Major props to you, sir! Super Spy Hunter is a pretty cool game! Sunsoft rules To be fair it should've not even been on the list, because it has hardly anything to do with the original. The original Japanese version is called Battle Formula. Got renamed to Super Spy Hunter in other regions. At least that's what I figure happened

This game would've been ideal for a Knight Rider license

There's a machine of it in a restaurant near me, the smokescreen button doesn't work, and there's engine and crash music, but the music doesn't play. I didn't even know it had music.

Arcade, ColecoVision, Famicom (Super Spy Hunter), & NES were the only ports that are playable. Though the NES version has one little annoyance.

I had a feeling Mark was going to update this. He doesn't seem like the type of dude who gives up easily.

If you also consider clones, the Atari ST had a port as well: Major Motion, which is nearly a 1:1 copy of Spy Hunter.

The NES version wins it for me, but that ColecoVision version is very good. One of the best arcade conversions.

Re the NES version. To be fair you shouldn’t expect the destroyed cars to just disappear, sounds like a bit of realism has been added

New to the show, been watching some of the older episodes, top notch work. Super Spy Hunter is one of my favourite NES games, so very happy to see it pop up here (even if it isnt exactly a port lol). Surprised Colecovision got a very good port here of this game, and what blasphemy is that GBA version?! Hoping to see games that didnt originate from the arcade in some episodes sometime, like Worms 😁

Hi this is unrelated. I while ago I saw one of your videos. You compared a shmup where you could choose a higher resolution on the Saturn version. What game is that?

GBA port of Spy Hunter might be Sonic Genesis level of bad.

This calls for an updated Rastan BOTP with the IIGS version ;)

Yay! More ports! NES version looks nice and almost does seem to reach the Colecovision's level of enjoyability! GBA, on the other hand, is as shitty as expected... god, why are so many GBA ports bad? Joysticks would've really helped the BBC Micro port, but I heard the Micro was a school thing, so it probably wouldn't happen sadly. Nothing much to say about the GBC port other than it's a portable NES version.

Super spy hunter is really impressive. I didn't know that the famicom could do mode 7 rotation effects and that music is amazing!

Should you have included Super Spy Hunter?...I don't think that counts as a port.

It's not updated, it's just the Super EX version...

Just play action fighter from Sega ;)

I guess I should go with Super Spy Hunter after seeing all these ports, like I'm shocked that most of these ports suck.

My favorite port of Spy Hunter is Highway Pursuit

Nice job finding some more but I do have to wonder home much time is given to each one as for example the Atari 8bit version has two difficulty levels to some extent and getting in to the truck is extremely easy so I do have to ask what controls are you using. The Atari sticks were just that and people brought up on them realised that the NES style button pads just did not work in the same way. It is hard to say how. Atari sticks really did encourage the owner to use force on the poor things and you used the whole hand rather than just the thumb. Perhaps someone else can explain what made them so different and how this was reflected in the game design. To my mind the C64 version was better technically and for once the dull as dishwater colours were not a handicap but the scrolling just seems so much slower.

GBA couldn't license Peter Gunn

Man, DSI Games failed to make a GBA version. Please god.

Wow, that GBA port is SHOCKINGLY awful.

You're awesome dude lols

Gba couldn't get music rights?

The Famicom version is not better or good because it's not like the arcade version just like how Bump 'n' Jump on the NES was ruined because it was nothing like the arcade version, and it's not better to have to destroy the weapons truck to get the power up because entering the truck is morel like it is in Spy Movies and why was the Famicom which is the Japanese NES Version totally different than the NES Version and how did they get it to have that MODE 7 like effect on the Famicom which has no Scaling and Rotation abilities ?

As much as I like shite games, I'm not going anywhere close to most of these ports. The only versions of Spy Hunter I've played are the NES version that I rented and the arcade version, but considering how horrible I am at even those good versions of the game, I can't imagine trying to play some of these.

you forgot the reboot. lmao jk

How could any version be worse than the VCS version?

Nezz? The Atari ports aren't "crappy." They're actually pretty good. What? No Atari ST or Amiga version?

It's funny...that i noticed that there was many episodes that you didn't founded a Amiga port and bashed on it...Buuut i think that goes for the ZX spectrum And the C64 HAVE CRIMINALY A BAD USAGE OF VOICES(Midi channels) AND THAT IS A FREAKING CRIME!

Glad to see an update! But Colecovision port is nowhere near better than NES port,graphics are poor and with few frames and as for gameplay,it has poor colission detection.

Holy fuck, a system as powerful as the GBA should be able to have a near-perfect port no problem. The fact that it's worse than the port on Atari 2600, quite possibly the weakest hardware of any gaming console, really speaks volumes.

"By far the worst port...it's total shit" hahahaha say it like it is

Still no PS2 version?

Irate gamer review this game

Ya know, I just realized something. How in the fuck do you use special weapons in the 2600 version? There's only one button, and no keyboard to fall back on
