Co-op Mame games (single credit)
« on: February 14, 2012, 10:44:07 pm »
Hello all,

I am trying to make a list of MAME co-op games where you can't continue if you feed the game more credits (like Simpsons, TMNT).  I usually find these fun as you can't cheat your way to the end (if there is one).  A few that I can think of off the top of my head are:

Joust
Mario Bros
VS Battle City
VS Balloon Fight (however havent been able to get the controls setup right for 2 players yet)

I find most of these games have coop/competitive angle to them where you can hinder (or kill) your teammate if they get in your way.

Any suggestions on other games like this?

Let's not forget the granddaddy of coop games ... Ripoff.

People play Mario Bros as a coop game?  I've always played it as a versus.  We rarely made it past stage 3 before we off'ed each other.  :)

I bet a lot of those games (TMNT, Simpsons, etc) have dip switches you can change to disable continues...

Yeah, Ripoff rocks.  Similarly, Armor Attack is another.

Almost forgot to mention Wizard of Wor.

I think you can do the same in Ikari Warriors.
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.
