For MAME.

I did a search but couldn't seem to find a dedicated thread. Ok, so I didn't spend hours... if you know of a thread just post it and i'll go away!

I'd hate to ask a question that's been asked before!

thanks

Isn't Punch-Out!! a little annoying to play because of the dual screen thing?

Hat Trick!!! My brothers and I never cuss and trash talk at each other more than when we play that game. haha

not really, i mean the dual screen thing was cool, but having it on one doesnt screw up the gameplay any....just makes the screen a little smaller.

I always liked Hit the Ice too.

Baseball Stars 2 is great (although it doesn't save progress), but my setup is too slow for NBA Jam and Open Ice.

...as of now.

Not a MAME game (yet) but Virtua Tennis 2 is very good.

monkeybomb · « **Reply #14 on:** June 28, 2005, 04:24:10 pm »

'88 games is my favorite that and chiller

Steve Kaz · « **Reply #15 on:** June 28, 2005, 04:26:15 pm »

Off topic, but how would you play Super Baseball/Home run Derby without that little analog stick?

arcadegamenut · « **Reply #16 on:** June 28, 2005, 04:27:13 pm »

Adding on...

Windjammers is pretty cool.

Steve Kaz · « **Reply #17 on:** June 28, 2005, 04:32:18 pm »

Tecmo Bowl is one of those rare games that was better on the early home consoles. I thought the arcade version kind of stunk.

Thurman · « **Reply #18 on:** June 28, 2005, 04:34:09 pm »

The Japanese version of RBI Baseball is pretty cool.

Tommy,

I have the real Blitz pcb, I assume that game is what made you ask what system i'm running.

AMD Athlon64 3200+ overclocked, 1 GB DDR.

Yeah that game is the best on mame, not that bad on genesis or snes, but thats always been one of my favorite sports games.
Weird trivia, did anyone know that Hit the Ice was supposed to be the first hockey RPG for NES?
