PCE: Outrun (maybe not quite as good as the Genesis version, but still fun)

Genesis: Dragons Fury (not quite as good as the PCE version, but still fun)

X68k: Mahou Daisakusen (not quite as good as the arcade version, but still fun)

Just beat the 7th castle in Super Mario world, I know it maybe considered a video game sin but I've never bothered to beat this game.
Also just got the 4th crystal star in Paper Mario 1,000 year door, I'm trying to beat them all before the new one comes out.

munchiaz · 07/18/2012, 02:57 AM

Been Playing Pokemon conquest. Only a few hours into so far. Its okay, i just hope the battles and options during the battles get a bit deeper

Lilgrafx · 07/23/2012, 02:19 PM

A Lot of SNES games.

Super Mario World- Beat It! Super easy, but It's mario so of course it's still great.

Mick Mouse Circus Mystery- Really like this game, you can beat it in like 30 minutes so I've played through it like 3 times

Goof troop- Fantastic 2 player puzzler, playing through with a buddy

DK Country- On the forth world, the snow levels are tricky!

VenomMacbeth · 07/23/2012, 02:52 PM

Beaten Power Strike II (GG Aleste II) three times now. Once on easy, twice on normal. It's not an especially hard game, especially if you use napalm, but it's still quite challenging & fun.

[EDIT] Just beat it on mania. Napalm really makes this game beatable. Notice I didn't say easy.

Then again, I'm not very good at video games.

The first snow level is one of my most favorite levels! Might be because I love snow, but still!

munchiaz · 07/24/2012, 03:04 AM

played and beat Smash TV on the SNES on easy a few nights ago. Also played some Oso tatake Ouendan on the DS last night. I was gunna play Sweet home for the NES tonight, but if you've seen my post in the "what did u buy today" thread, then u know how that turned out.

R-Type 1 & 2 on PlayStation.

tats will appreciate it, at least.

I loved that game. When it was released for SNES, I continued to love it.

It's one of my earliest memories of SNES.

geise · 07/25/2012, 07:09 AM

I love me some Smash TV on SNES. I feel it's better than the arcade version, especially in the music department. Even with some of the violence taken out I feel it's a better game than the arcade. Also playing it on the controller feels a tad easier, but I haven't played Smash TV in the arcade for well over 22 years. Playing it in mame just isn't the same. I will always pick up Smash TV and play it on my SNES.

I am currently playing nothing atm. Sadly I've been to busy as of late. Last time I even played a video game was last week. That was Ys Chronicles 1&2 on my Vita.

Get Midway Arcade Treasures Vol. 1 to try the arcade version in its original control scheme.

Just clear DK Country! I really love the snow levels too, but my favorite would have to be the underwater ones I love the music

I thought the soundtrack was awesome. The songs are catchy as hell.

Joe Redifer · 07/27/2012, 10:16 AM

The music would be better if the instruments were better. The fake guitars and trumpets are quite disturbing.

Yeah, I never much cared for the "rock" synthesis on the SNES (compare the SNES version of Desert Strike to the Genesis version, you'll see what I mean.) The SNES does better on orchestral tracks.

I got my rear end handed to me by Image Fight (x68000) today. I beat stage 5 (got 93% avg!) so no penalty stage... but Stage 5 is BRUTAL, and Stage 6 is death.

Went to a tournament for and played KOF 13 and SF 4. Last night played TMNT tournament fighter on the SNES with my brother and a friend for a few hours last night. I love that game so much. Also played a little Saturday night slam masters on the SNES

Lilgrafx · 07/29/2012, 07:46 PM

Got to the last level on Earth Defense Force, I like the way you power up weapons in the game, but they're all worthless except for Homing, Vulcan, and S.Laser. I bought Super Metroid and Actraiser for a total of $23 bucks and was pretty stoked to play Metroind, but the battery was dead

so I played through the first 2 citys in Actrasier, one of my favorite games.

Lilgrafx · 07/29/2012, 08:08 PM

and I beat metal Slug 1st mission

I bet someone here could replace it for you. I have an extra boxed copy but the controls are bugged out. Every action button is set to "X". Weird.

Finally broke 1,000,000 points in Geometry Wars on the 360 last night. I got 1,041,161. Nothing too excited, but I'm pretty proud of it.

Finally Beat Ridge Racer. I've played the Hi-Spec demo before but I picked up the 1st game just the other day. That last reversed extra "Time trial" (why does a time trial have competing cars anyway?) was hell. And it made my thumb hurt too. But now I've beat it - with the red standard car no less...after wasting a lot of time with the blue and yellow ones : |

That's the only way I could ever beat RR was with the two compact cars. Their better handling is required.

I love it! It has a couple tracks from those games and a couple new ones. There's also about 93 music tracks. The game is more of a play online kind of game now. There's no real 1 player mode where you unlock stuff. You can race in single player against cars to gain levels and points. Points allow you to unlock extra abilities for you car. The game looks amazing, but it's not always 60 fps. I still love it and rock it every now and then, and I was a day one buyer. I beat the Devil car a couple months back. Now I'm working on beating the Angel car. Racing online can get kinda hard to find a person that's your level. Level 16 is the highest and I've been stuck at level 11 forever. I don't know what I need to do to gain a higher level. I unlocked all the car upgrades and beat people online in races. Still stuck at 11. If you're a huge fan of the first Ridge Racer I think you'll like this version. I say that because of content. There's quite a bit more than the first RR game, but nothing like 6/7.

Munchiaz, Akai Katana is great! I finally got used to the system. Took some practice, but it's a great game. It's nice to see some more Cave and "real" shooters make it state side.

Played some NES Arkanoid tonight.

It brought back a lot of fond memories.

It was also the first time in forever that I threw my controller in frustration.

(I should be able to reassemble the controller tomorrow.

)

wilykat · 08/07/2012, 02:19 AM

I hope you didn't throw the hard to find Arkanoid controller. It's a PITA to fix it.

roflmao · 08/07/2012, 02:36 AM

No, I didn't know they existed until you just now mentioned it. Adding it to the wishlist...

It can be but it's a good thing it has a paddle controller,it would be impossible with out it.

Btw there is a sequel as well on the famicom (arkanoid II Revenge of Doh).

Or the poster is a woman!

PS beat the game only once! I did 1 and 2 many times and my chest looks like Williams Robin. But that's OK, it offers better traction in bed ;) ;) ;)
