So many of these games are great with two players. Such a shame they are locked on a one-player only machine.

Good stuff. That’s a tough set of games to rank! Always happy to see a new convert to Growl. One of my top three beat ‘em ups ever! You should find out how to play Legend of Kage though. It’s way simpler than you think and a really good game!

Great review. Rastan (Saga) needs to be top 5 for the music alone; some of the best arcade music ever!

I actually kind of like Volified. It has that “one more go” effect on me. Do wish some of the games had infinite continues as even with save states I’ll probably never get round to seeing the whole game in many cases. Overall great set of games, just a shame it isn’t available on cart for VS.

Yeah not being able to continue is s bummer... as is no official cart. Maybe one day.

Hey brother! Much love from 🇨🇦. Do you think Blaze will ever release these systems' games as carts? I have the Taito one but sure would be nice to have these on my VS
@CrazyBurger9 ай бұрын
Hey mate! It's always possible. I don't think it's a closed door case. If they sell well enough, maybe it'll make way to allow a cart release. That would be brilliant.. especially Taito.

Sad to see my beloved Kiki Kaikai so low on the list, but your logic makes sense as far as it being a poor fit for such a small screen. Great video as usual!

I mostly agree with your assessments mates except I do like the odd few sheets of Space Invaders. For me it's just nice to have the proper version of Rastan, it's never been that great but the home 8 bit versions were really bad imo. My awards for hidden gems status are Football Champ, Water Kids and Growl. I never heard pf any of those before and they all surprised me pleasantly. Ah well next few weeks I'm a mouse only gamer, Civ 6 is it then.

Yes, Chack´n Pop is an early single screen game that doesn´t have a lot to offer anymore. It´s mostly interesting because it´s a predecessor to Bubble Bobble, but the gameplay isn´t very captivating. And Kiki Kai Kai shouldn´t be played on such a small screen, the best case scenario would have been if they had the license for SNES Pocky & Rocky instead. I am pretty fond of Legend of Kage (Second pronunciation was perfect!) though. I like the high jumps, feels like being in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon! I think the levels are about killing enough enemies. It´s a game with a style of it´s own, and I appreciate that!

I got both super pockets from argos and the capcom edition works great, unfortunately the screen on the taito had a bright patch in the bottom left corner so will get a replacement tomorrow, i got the gaelco arcade 1 cart which was Amazing until Thunder Hoop wouldn't load,do evercade carts often have issues or am i just unlucky 😅😂

Mmm.. there's definitely issues no doubt. But generally it's a low percentage. Most likely unlucky. Reach out to support@evercade.co.uk for a new cart.

mine also got stuck in a loading loop the first time i used it but then the screen flashed and it went back to the games select menu, after that the screen would flash when selecting the game and nothing more, i put it down to a bad batch of carts, The replacement was damaged on arrival 😂

You would need to use the save states for that. Otherwise scores reset everytime you turn off and on.
