I saw some dude on RU-vid, he made Amiga synthwave with Amiga software. The Amiga soundchip is was in the 80's and early 90's. My brother had one and I had Atari 5200 and Sega mastersystem pal version. So many nostalgic moments.

The Virtual Boy has a small library, but the games it does have are almost all excellent. It's an absolute shame Nintendo never did any ports of enhanced sequels to Virtual Boy games like Teleroboxer, Mario Clash and of course, VirtualBoy Wario Land. If you can get ahold of a working VirtualBoy, it's totally worth it. Emulation is nice, but 2D just isn't how these games were designed to be played.

@rars0n 4 года назад

@@SatoshiMatrix1 I agree. I unfortunately sold mine years ago and never got to play all the titles that were available for it, but the games that I did play were very good. Teleroboxer is a bit short, but lots of fun to play. Mario Tennis is a great use of the 3D effect and never gets old. Red Alarm looks like a mess in screenshots but looks awesome when you're actually playing it, and the controls are great. Galactic Pinball is another one that I would spend hours playing almost every night. My only real gripe about the library is that the fact that it's so small leaves you wanting more. Having only owned 3 games for it (I rented Teleroboxer), I always wanted a little more variety. My favorite thing about the Virtual Boy is the controller. It's probably the most comfortable controller ever made. I also liked the fact that you could swap out the battery module with an adapter that utilized an SNES power cord.

I saw Amiga in the thumbnail and clicked immediately. Ruff 'n Tumble and Yo! Joe are good picks, but there are also a lot of truly fantastic games on that thing, Turrican II being my absolute favorite (and one of my favorite games period). Insanely good soundtracks are also kind of a running theme for the system. If you're into video game music and haven't looked into Amiga soundtracks, I highly recommend doing so. The title themes in particular are worth looking up.

@vix_in_japan 5 лет назад

@@noop9k Hardware wise there is no difference between an A500 and a 1985 A1000, both use OCS* chipset. The only difference is that Agnus was made Fat for the Amiga 500 migrating lots of discrete logic from the A1000 into Agnus making a single 'Fat' Agnus package. Otherwise a 1985 A1000 will play Ruff n Tumble just fine with no modifications. (* Late Amiga 500s contain a so called ECS 'Fatter' Agnus)

@noop9k 5 лет назад

Pixel Vixen buggy os, amount of RAM, shape, price. I never said they were different hardware. A1000 wasn’t affordable and there were nearly no games. Again, A1000 was priced way beyond acceptable limit for a gaming system. No customers - no games. A500 was a device bought by many purely as a games console, creating a viable market for games(but until, maybe, 89, primary target still was the ST). That’s the difference.

It's crazy to think about how expensive both of those consoles were when released. So expensive that no one could afford to buy the jaguar or Panasonic 3do.

Then once Sony playstation came out with the black discs for an affordable price it was officially game over for any up and coming competitors, except for Microsoft of course.

@AFnord 5 лет назад

The Amiga was quite capable, and there's a whole bunch of hidden and not so hidden gems on that. For the 80's home computers, I would argue that that's probably the best one for games. Sure, there's competition, and there are plenty of games that were not released on it, but just generally speaking, the Amiga makes a pretty good showing.

I think that 3DO should have encouraged developers to put exclusive content in the 3DO versions of their games, like an exclusive level, item, game mode, boss battle, or playable character. I think that would have helped them sell so many more consoles and games. They might have actually been able to survive for a full console life cycle that way(which is typically 5 or 6 years), and we may have actually seen the M2 get released.

Durandal waxes about Hegelian dialectics, and Tycho's breakdowns are pulled straight out of Jung.

The amiga 500 version is the best version. I still play it to this day.

The Amiga had the best music of the 16bit era, no question. The USA missed out!

@yafavblerd 5 лет назад

Great video like usual! Mr. SNES Drunk, can you do a video Best and Worst versions of your favorite 16-bit games, where the differences are semi-dramatic (example: TMNT: Tournament Fighters on SNES & Genesis)?

@akildukes7499 5 лет назад

What a great list! I’m currently collecting any and all 3do games. I’ve owned one since 1994. I’ve got a gaming convention this week and I’m hoping to hit some pay dirt. I think I bought everything local.

I loved the Marathon games. These were strange but fun games!

@mostverticalproductions4808 5 лет назад

Honestly, the Lynx was a pretty underrated handheld, and the Jaguar had some good titles. I remember in particular the port of Joust is really good.

@sarcasmallover8999 5 лет назад

Interestingly the Atari lynx was also a 16bit system that came out way before the SNES, there were a few more great games, now I gotta go and dig mine out

I believe the "Amiga look" can be mostly attributed to Chris Sorrell, who was responsible for the art direction of a lot of Amiga platformers, as well as British publisher Psygnosis. While the Amiga's developer Commodore was an American computer company, both the Amiga and its predecessor the Commodore 64 were *massively* popular in the UK, where most of these consoles games came from. It just so happens that the British really liked collect-a-thon platformers with lushly colored cartoony graphics for most of the 90's. If you want to check out more Amiga games like Ruff 'n Tumble and Yo! Joe, try the James Pond games, Wiz 'n Liz, and Puggsy.

My cousin had a 3DO and Return Fire was one of the games he had. It was a really fun game. You could even play 2 player capture the flag!

What was the ps1 version of this game called? i know i rented this back in the day. my brother and i went nuts on it!

Great video dude, can I just point you in the direction of playing Qwak on the Amiga a fantastic simple arcade style game that’s beautifully balanced with an all round beautiful aesthetic.

@ArmstrongArcade 5 лет назад

I still play my Virtual Boy monthly, I just love the system. And, you must be playing Alpha on a rom, cause that game on the SNES lagggssss. Great video, as usual.

@Hektols 4 года назад

The specialized press in my country talked a lot about Street Fighter Alpha 2 for SNES when it was released, it was during the long waiting for the N64 release when PSX and Saturn have been there for a while. Many considered SNES's swan song, it's last greatest game.

@claimhsolais3466 5 лет назад

Hey friend, the early Amiga models (such as the glorious 500 one) were pretty popular throughout western Europe. Like you mentioned, there's a lot of mediocre, if not horrible games, however there are numerous good and interesting ones. I have to suggest you Apidya, a surprisingly well made wannabe Japanese shooter, and Traps 'n' Treasures, an incredible puzzle / 2d platformer. Think it as an early Brain like game!

Return Fire is the game that Pauly Shore and Andy Dick were playing in the movie In the Army Now. While they were working at Crazy Boys.

@elbitxo5945 5 лет назад

Love the Pirates port for the Genesis! Kishin Douji Zenki FX for the PC-FX is a good example of a fairly good arcadeish game on an obscure system were almost every game is a visual novel in japanese. Chip Chan Kick! also on that system is pretty good, too.

@ggbetz 5 лет назад

I love my PC-FX! Zenki FX, Langrisser FX, Battle DOLLS, Zeroigar, last imperial prince, all great games (havent played CCK yet), and hey a couple are english friendly!

@noop9k 5 лет назад

Yeah, PC-FX is a decent 2D hw that wasn’t really used for much :(

@elbitxo5945 5 лет назад

it had the best full motion video quality of its generation, better than 3DO, Saturn or PSX!

@noop9k 5 лет назад

elbitxo yes, but later CDi came with VCD addon installed by default, so..

@ggbetz 5 лет назад

3D0 probably infinitely more playable, tho it doesnt have those zelda games...

@yepperdeedooda 5 лет назад

Doom II looks like a game that I would play if I could even find it or get it for whatever system which I'm actually going to research after I leave this comment.

@Nekkoru 5 лет назад

It's on Steam for $4.99 usually.

@xaosbob 5 лет назад

I had a Lynx back in the day. It was a good system, and deserved a bigger library. Summer Games and Rastan were my go-to titles. I had a 3DO, too. I always tended to back the consoles that wound up failing. lol

I remember going to Blockbuster when I was a kid and trying the Virtual Boy out. It was actually pretty cool, but wasn't fully impressed to rent it.

@mikicerise6250 5 лет назад

I hope eventually a virtual virtual boy is released in VR. Without the nausea-inducing effects. ;)

The "3D' 2-plane approach for VB Wario Land, did have a lasting legacy, in that it apparently helped inspire the same mechanic for the Mutant Mudds series.

@MeinyansHusband 5 лет назад

There's C.U.G for the Super A'Can (a console that was a commercial failure in Taiwan). Game is decent and considered as the best decent game for the console.

The Apple Pippin is actually a Bandai product, Bandai manufactured and marketed the system in Japan and the US. Apple designed the Pippin to be a multimedia platform, exactly like the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer, which 3DO licensed out to manufacturers like Panasonic. The Pippin is essentially a PowerPC computer inside a console box (that's why the graphics look so good, I mean for $600 you were actually getting some pretty good hardware). It was part of Apple's strategy to increase the Macintosh hardware base without having to spend the money to build the hardware themselves. Macs from around that time can play Pippin software.
