Don Doko Don is cool. Play as a garden gnome and beat shit up with a hammer. Taito is the undisputed king of this subgenre.

Does SquareEnix own all Taito properties? At least Zuntata are still releasing music albums.

>>3945028
Well they're fully owned by Squeenix now.
But it's fucking SquareEnix.

Nice try.
Still even some of the single screen maps were cool. I loved trying to beat those as fast as I could.

Does that intro actually explain who Putty is?
>they didn't call her patty
Huh.
Also, I'm guessing she might technically be Betty or Patty?

Holy shit, it's been 14 years since I last played this game on an arcade machine but I didn't know what it was called. It reminded me a lot of ghostbusters and I loved it. Thanks for this post anon!

The superior original MSX Castlevania had no scrolling, so it kind of makes sense here

Always thought this one was too much of a Snow Bros ripoff, with a simple early-2000s-japanese-Tim-Burtonesque-obsession paint coat; it even has the same 3 powerups.

But the visuals and music *are* pretty neat, though the main characters are pretty boring and forgettable

Zupapa, motherfuckers. Easily one of the best Neogeo games that isn't Metal Slug or a shitty fighter.

One of my favorite genres are the very rare single-screen racers, like Super Off-Road. Might not exactly be what you are looking for, but since I'll never be able to get a dedicated thread going, I'll have to mention them here.

Snow Bros.

Everything else is superfluous or clunky.
