@@ResidentNotEvil5 they brought us Zaxxon. Think that's the name. Alex kidd. That jet fighting game. Outrun. Golden Axe etc. Really big big big list I'll Be here all day.🤣
i can not put into words the amount of nostalgia i felt watching this. i could almost smell the pizza and feel the sticky, grimy floors from my local arcade while watching this. my dad would take my brother and me every so often to the arcade. back then, or at least where i lived, you could give your kids a handful of quarters and trust that your kids were pretty safe and stay out of trouble. thats what he did. he loved playing the older games, like galaga and pac-man, and my brother and i would go off and play ours. my favorites were the punisher/nick fury and wwf wrestlefest. i could probably buy a house with the amount of quarters i spent playing those two games. i have two kids now and wish there was an arcade to take them to. i really do miss that. sorry for the long post. this video hit me right in the feels.
Too bad there was no Saturn and PS1 port of AvP. Also, Linn Kurosawa was originally going to be playable in Capcom vs. SNK 2, but they no longer have the rights to Linn so they replaced her with Maki Genryusai from Final Fight 2 instead.
Super double dragon is my personal favorite and Till this day is one of the most underrated and less talked about beat em ups of all time, hopefully it’s on this list
@@KenMasters. i know I believe the game was rushed into production that’s why there is no visible ending after you beat the game or after you beat bosses at the end of levels that was common in games back then
@@larryconnerjr1835 Yes, *Double Dragon Advance* had sort of the same problem due to memory space limitations in the hardware. Their biggest screw-up is that they could've made a *Double Dragon Advance II,* but ATLUS decided to shoehorn all the stages and enemies from *Double Dragon II: The Revenge* into the first and final GBA game.
Great list, For your next video, you may consider this arcade games: Gaia Crusaders Knights of Valour Metamorphic Force Ninja Baseball Bat Man The Gladiator - Road Of The Sword The King of Dragons
Always like how when you get out You come back and everybody falls on their butts even the boss.😂 But don't hurt them tho. Never got that? Never underestimate the power of justice!!!🤣
This generation can have their games. Growing up in the 80s and 90s was something else going to the Arcade and seeing all these games ready to be played. Putting down your quarter for your next turn in Street Fighter 2.
Ratking wasn't in the Arcade version of Turtles in Time, he was added when they ported the game to the SNES and expanded it with more levels and bosses
Was he really talking about the Bucky O'Hare NES game? Because it sure didn't sound like what was being shown on screen. And he was also talking about a Sailor Moon JRPG instead of what was shown on screen there too.
I remember playing a football and a hockey game from the devs of River City Ransom where you could beat up other players and every team had its own super powers. I'd say I had a lot more fun with these than with any FIFA or NHL game in the '90s.
You're showing the arcade beat'em up of bucky o hare and describing the megaman clone nes bucky ohare, They're completely different games. The nes one is like megaman it's a platformer and the arcade one is like every other beat'em up.
I remember Hook/(Peter Pan) game was awesome as a heat em up game. I can't remember the name but there was an arcade game where you beat up guys whilst skating the city.
39:07 Manhattan shrinking? More like warbling into non-existence, along with the Statue of Liberty on Ellis Island, that has decided to move into view of the camera
This is an amazing list and I love most of these games. The one game I never enjoyed was Double Dragon, I get why it's on the list but just never understood the infatuation. This genre is "trapped in the arcade" more than about any other genre. A few are console exclusives but so many you always only play in arcade or now on MAME.
Cool games. At a recent steam festival, I played the demo of another potentially good game - Arnold Bounty Hunter. It looks more like the first Battletoads - there are not only fights, but also various adventures with platforming, hydrocycles. It also looks interesting. I liked the demo.
to be honest i only came here to see if river city ransom was in the list. i'm pleased to see that it is. it's possibly the most fun game i've ever played.
1 of my best hour in my life - thank for the video A great explanation of the games . 2- in my life I saw an arcade Game but I never played … I could not find the name I have only memories please help this poor soul find the heavens !!!! Memories : on insert coin display I remember an old man Chinese wear a suit and talks on the phone . Graphics like polygons, also I remember the héroe was climbing 2 ladders and show the options “ left or right “ to avoid the damage of the bricks 🧱, and finally I am not sure but I remember the fight with like 3 tigers with fireman clothes during the fight a car trough on the back throwing water and you must hold on the ground !!! I thinks is similar with fighting force game but this is different, I know this game exist !! Was no a dream is real … please is one game I want to play in my life .i need the name of this game ,
Hi. Can u help me. I remember one classic Beat'Em Ups game like bad dudes, even the bosses like those on bad dudes. 16 levels, every level has 20 enemies. Every 4-th level ends with boss. I remember 8-th level boss was fire-breathing fat dude, and the final boss was native american with boomerangs. Name of the game?
People we see in beat em ups: Your regular thugs(always easy to Take out) Fat bald guy's who blow fire. The chicks(carry whips electric) Thug captain Sub boss The regular bossess Ninjas Monsters The weapon guy's The firing squad(rare) They come on screen blasting You sometimes run away. Etc They're soooooooo many I'll Be here all day explaining.😂
Is the voice-over an AI generated one??? It was very off-putting and I couldn't carry on watching after Final Fight. BTW, I don't know what version of Streets of Rage 2 you've got there, but it’s certainly not the Megadrive one! The Megadrive version did not have the capability for four players at once ... and Axel Stone has never had purple hair or wore pink clothing!!
The voice over is either AI generated, or they used a text-to-speech program. Either way I seriously doubt it's read by an actual person. Surely nobody would pronounce "Wii" as "Why"! 🤣🤣
These are 'classic games', not 'retro games'. 'Retro' is defined as something new that is made to look/sound like something from a bygone era. So TMNT: Shredder's Revenge is a good example of a 'retro game'.
You are being pedantic. In the context of gaming “retro” is widely used to cover both new imitation of old games/styles, and also the revival and appreciation of them. So much so that new retro games are often given the qualifier “retro style” so as to differentiate them from actual old games.
@@adamkane7513 a woman is an adult female human. female is usually someone born with xx chromosomes. but, in the case of trans women they are also considered female, even when they were born xy instead of xx. i personally wouldnt date a trans woman, but i know that some would. everyone has a right to NOT date whomever they dont wish to date, with no social consequences for it. does that answer your question? i know it wasnt for me, but i like to clarify things for usakistanis.
