I don't believe I've actually played Revenge of Doh. The Famicom port here seems similar to the NES port of the first game: not as nice graphically, kind of a toss-up sound-wise, but also seems like overall a good port.
It's once again a nice port of the arcade original and I think it may be a tie here. But having said that I found the first game to be slightly more fun but I can't put my finger on why.
This is one solid port! I figured most NES games would be far inferior. You do not have any special filters or anything? lol Also nice freakin job with multi-ball game play, that alone is the very reason why I enjoy this type of game. The madness that can be had! Winner: Arcade, just barely! Other winner: You kicking serious butt! Not only are the comparisons enjoyable, so is your game play man. It is NOT easy to pick up and play for a bit with most of these games and here you are being a badass! Makes us all winners!!!!
This and the first game in the series look and play outstanding, pretty much on par with the arcade which is surprising. I will say though that I've been surprised with the NES overall. There are games coming up this year that I've already recorded that I think outshine their arcade counterpart. And no filters needed lol! Though I would be interested to see what kind of filters emulators have for the NES. Thanks for the kind words buddy! This is one of the type of games that is easier for me to pick up and play since I played the hell out of Breakout and Super Breakout on the 2600 growing up.
@@RetroComparisons Yep I played a ton of this type of game, it is always a safe go to! I am glad this series has turned out so well as quickly as it has.
@@mikec3260 Yeah you can never go wrong with a good brick puzzle game. Thanks buddy, this season is coming along nicely though it's going to be a long time before it finishes. That will give me time to get to some pet projects like finally doing the PS1 vs N64 video that's been on my list for years.
Yeah I agree this is an excellent port to the point where I think it's totally on par with its arcade counterpart. Thanks buddy! Yep that's me, I've done all of the footage on the channel except for 1 video of Tony Hawk that my friend did for me because I'm so embarrassingly bad at those games lol!
@@RetroComparisons Oh sweet! Yeah this game is one of the more underrated series I always thought. Is this considered a puzzle game? I guess so right? Also no worries lol I can related trying to do tricks I failed miserably back when I rented Tony hawk for the N64 lol 😆
@@MKF30 It really is an underrated gem. You know what, that's a great question. I guess it would be a puzzle game of some sort. Lol I'm glad I'm not the only one who failed miserably at that game.
@@RetroComparisons haha yeah I did a few easy tricks but the ones with the doing different things in the air, just started to piss me off lol. Which is funny coming from a guy who plays fighting games and has made some crazy combo MK videos but yeah nobody is perfect lol. It's funny I have a friend who is great at the skateboarding, snowboarding trick games SSX Tricky I think? etc he was like "dude how do you do those crazy combos in MK, I can never" yet does those insane tricks in those extreme sports games haha. And thanks! It feels closest to a puzzle game especially two player against each other for sure my guess lol
@@MKF30 Lmao! Yeah come to think of it, I'd think you'd be amazing at it considering the complex combos you need to pull off in MK. I guess maybe it's more like instruments. You can be a prodigy at piano but only have basic knowledge when it comes to playing guitar, the two don't fully translate.
Well, even though the gameplay is the same and NES tried to impress players with bigger sprites (well, compared to the screen ratio), those sounds ruining everything for me...((
The gameplay is excellent on this and I'm a huge fan of any Breakout style game. I agree the audio leaves a lot to be desired. I guess this is one of those games where you could blast some hair metal in the background while playing back in the day.
@@RetroComparisons I've never thought that I'm a fan of that kind of games (I've never called myself one), but judging the amount of Breakout knock-offs I've comnpleted on my old mobile phone, I guess I can understand your feelings^^ Let's see, there were: Bikini Balls Bikini Balls 2 Bikini Balls 2: Christmas Edition Bikini Balls 2: Hockey Edition Block Breaker Deluxe (both the original 2004 game and it's 2007's update) Block Breaker Holidays Block Breaker Deluxe 2 Block Breaker Deluxe 3
