Seeing Air Fortress mentioned in a video is awesome. It feels like it's been almost entirely forgotten in the retro world. However it was one of the few NES games I owned as a kid in the 80s and it's stuck in my head since.

My recommendation that works across a ton of consoles is Tetris. It came out for practically every console that could conceivably run the thing, even some push button cell phones could run it. These games in this video are quite good, I agree though I guess I misunderstood the title of the video as I thought you meant games that came out on many consoles. I may have to try Wild Snake for the SNES if I can find it. Looks fun. Good video!

@hardkoregamer1981 11 ай бұрын

Another Fun Fact: GameLine was a dialup game distribution service for the Atari 2600, developed and operated by Control Video Corporation (CVC). Subscribers could install the proprietary modem and storage cartridge in their home game console, accessing the GameLine service to download games over a telephone line. GameLine had an exclusive selection of games, and its pioneering business model eventually gave rise to America Online. Despite being ahead of its time, it wasn't very popular, possibly due to its price of $60 for the hardware, $15 for the membership fee, and $1 per game, which you could only keep for a week.

A game I got at my cvs game bin long long ago was a “classic” called team buddies! So underrated and maybe because I was younger but it was an amazing game and seeing the prices for it, glad I played it back then and got the rom for it!

@retrogamer8085 Жыл бұрын

air fortress is a hidden gem. i had it back then. have it today. it's great. u fly thru a relatively simple shmup level, then land, then go in a base similar to Section-Z or Metroid. u walk around, use a jetpack, find the core, take it out, then escape! then, the next level. very simple but takes practice. great music, too. very catchy. i just bought double dragon on master system a few months back and while it's graphically superior to the NES version, i found it not as fun. also problems with hit detection. anyway, good video, covers a lot of games newer/younger retro game collectors may not know about.

Here's my 10 to check out, some pretty obscure but all can be played on emulators 1. TI-99 4/A - Bigfoot 2. Megadrive - Pulseman 3. NES - Xexyz 4. Coleco - Smurfs (don't laugh, Smurfs is great! 😉 5. MSX 2 - Space Manbow 6. Atari 7800 - Junkyard Dog 7. Arcade VS System - Excitebike (has extra bonus stages!) 8. Epoch Super Cassette Vision - Lupin III 9. Famicom Disk - Fire Bam (really difficult platformer in the style of Zelda 2 and Battle Of Olympus) 10. SMS - Lord Of The Sword (another game reminds me of that Zelda 2 style)
