It's hard to say if this was to be expected or not, but I will say that it's about time I did something like this. Consider this an impromtu video.
With that said, I've been looking for an arcade emulator to work with so that I can finally play some arcade games, especially games that I've never had much of a chance to play for whatever reason. To get the search rolling, I'm testing a well-known emulator, MAME. I found this to be a bit complex. Then again, considering that this is a first-time scenario, it's a start.
As for the test game, I wanted to get back into this game again for some time. I'm doing just a basic Marvel Super Heroes playthrough as everyone's favorite "Wall Crawler," Spider-Man. The character pick was on a whim just to test the system. Also, since this is mostly a test, the difficulty is default as I don't know how to adjust arcade difficulty as of yet; not to mention that I may switch emulators if there's something better out there. This means don't be surprised if my opponents aren't as tough as they should be (take note near the end). Please don't ask about why I didn't use any of the Infinity Gems. I really don't care about using them, to be honest.
I may revisit this game again when I get more accustomed to its MAME's settings assuming if this becomes a more permanent emulator. I'm taking suggestions for others. Finally, for the record, this was recorded via Fraps as I'm unsure of the recording capabilities of MAME if any.
With all this said, try to enjoy for what this is: a test.
