Baraduke for sure, it's been one of my favorites since Namco Museum on PS1, but all it's known for now is that Baraduke got pumped up by DigDug and shot Mr.Driller out her vag.

Night Slashers X

>>2802709
Did you know this had a sequel?
Look up Bakutotsu Kijūtei

>>2802801
there's a pretty good remake of this on openBOR

>>2802820

I haven't tried openBOR but I might have to now

>>2802801
This game is great. I was just playing this. Weird.

>>2802857

It's gotten more popular over the last few years.

Undercover cops, the soundtrack, character animation and bosses were amazing

here you go, the games hard to find
think that lavalit site's been down for quite a while. hope openbor makes a comeback of sorts

>>2802869
nevermind, the game freezes when the loading bar is midway.

>>2802801
The original Night Slashers is way better than your shitty fan remake.

I can never get enough of it

Sorry it's not retro , but the main character is also playable in Namco X Capcom on the PS2 .

>>2803253
I got excited then i realized its not a fighting game

but stil thanks for the info.
It seems like a intuitive crappy game, then you realize nah its all in your control.

I honestly wonder why Technos never released Xain'D Sleena on the Famicom. They could've used another game that didn't involve Kunio nor the Double Dragons besides Sugoro Quest (since even the Lee brothers had a cameo in Super Spike V'Ball).

Not that underrated for fans of the genre, but still a great game that every arcade fan should try.

This one was quite competent for its time. The SNES port won't disappoint either and its a really fun choice for a co-op.

I tried this game once and the slowdown was just too much for me. Looks pretty as hell for 1986 though.

>>2802805
Yeah I know it had a sequel, I tried playing it on Mame once but had problems and kinda gave up.

>>2803569
this game is pretty shit compared to other stg of the day

>>2803682
You can always overclock mame. However no slowdowns = harder.

Psycho Nics Oscar

Obvious inspiration for Turrican and uses a gradius like powerup system. Its pretty cool

KILL YOUR ENEMY BY ANY MEANS

Fucking incredible game.

>>2803293
Just 1cc'd this fucker. Thanks for the suggestion, nice little game.

>>2804245
Holds up amazingly well. I fell in love the first time I saw it, in like what '85? '87?

Atomic Runner, really love the story.

It came out in 1986.
>>2804245
China Gate (or Saiyu Goma Roku) is pretty good too. It plays like a cross between Double Dragon and Bubble Bobble.

So I haven't done much with MAME in about four years. What games have I missed?

it's pretty barebones and mediocre compared to stuff being put out by companies like toaplan

>>2807543
genesis port 1000x better

It's pretty generic, but I love how "The Great Ragtime Show/Boogie Wings" looks and plays.

Edward Randy. That game is like the realization of all my video game fantasies as a child.

Love this game, I like how you eject from the plane after you get hit and start running around as
a small guy with a gun.

This game is pretty fucking comfy for an arcade game.
So many ways to handle short level designs and decide the order of the game
2 player as well.

Are there any other games out there with tiny sprites? I always found them so much fun to look at.

Wolf Fang (or Rohga: Armor Force)

Build your own mech and shoot up a bunch of evil shit. When your mech dies you eject and fight for survival as a human with nothing but your gun and your jetpack until you collect enough power-ups to rebuild your mech.
