There's a Data East collection coming out for The Wii!

MotoRoaderMike · 01/18/2010, 02:05 AM

It's about damn time! I stumbled across this when looking to see how much SNK Arcade Classics for the PSP cost. These are the games I know are on it from looking at the cover:

BurgerTime
Magical Drop III
Street Hoop
Crude Buster
Wizard Fire
Bad Dudes
Side Pocket
Lock 'n' Chase
Caveman Ninja
Express Raider
Burnin' Rubber
Peter Pepper's Ice Cream Factory
Heavy Barrel
and Secret Agent

I'm not sure if there are any others on it other than those. However, it seems that they decided to use the japanese and/or european titles for some of the games in the US version. That's strange. Anyway, it's coming out February 9th, 2010. Preordering NOW!

By the way:WHERE THE FUCK IS MIDNIGHT RESISTANCE??!!

As I recall, didn't Heavy Barrel have that awesome joystick that you could also spin in the arcade? That thing was awesome!

Throw in Burger Time, Bad Dudes (because fighting Freddy's twin on the back of a truck rules), and Magical Drop, and I'm sold!

yeah.. a data east col. w/o midnight resistance is not even half worth. doesn't matter how many games you would throw in!

BurgerTime and Bad Dudes are already on there, along with Magical Drop III.

I liked Crude Buster in the arcades. The Mega Drive conversion was OK too.

It'd be cool if the arcade version of Bloody Wolf was on there, even though it's not as good as the Turbo version. Man, why does this have to be on Wii of all systems? I'm gonna wait for a PS2/3 version.

Yeah, it could run as a conversion to Ikari Warriors, and like Ikari Warriors can't really be enjoyed without a rotating stick. I suppose that with the Wii Classic Controller you can at least play it Robotron-style, which is a lot better than playing it NES style.

Forever.....or for now? It seems like something you would see on a Sony system, rather then the Wii, especially with the lack of motion control for those games. If worse comes to worse, & it nevever arrives on anything else, I'll get the Wii version.

SNK. Time Soldiers had a similar rotating stick setup and it was a blast in the arcade.

I really liked Time Soldiers, for some reason.

Forgotten Worlds had the rotary stick too.

oh yeah! Atomic Runner.....where is it???
