Title: Classic Arcade Games - Video Reviews
Post by: MrQuan on November 15, 2007, 04:28:14 am

Heya,

Just thought I might share these with you...

So far I've reviewed Lightning Fighters, Raiden, and Slap Fight.  More on the way ;) (one a week-ish)

Hey! This is fantastic! Do you take requests? I'd like some others opinions on some of my old favs.

After watching Lighting Fighters I think you said that it was a new board for you. Does that mean you don't do any emulated games? While I like schumps, there are so many others that you could do too.....  ;D Just a thought.

I also like the fact that you subtitle it. It was well done.  :cheers:

Thanks ;D

I don't really take requests sorry, because I'm limited to my PCB collection.  I guess that answers your other question, no MAME, just the real deal ;)

I have mainly shmup PCBs, but I will be reviewing a platformer next, so watch out for that one :)

Awww.....that sucks. Well, I guess a little is better than none. What platformer are you gonna do?

I'm just doing it for fun mate ;)  It's nothing too serious.

There are plenty of MAME reviews, and play through videos.  I thought that playing the real game on a real arcade machine adds a bit more nostalgia  8)

As for the next game - you'll have to wait and see  ;D

Nice work, hmmm, makes me think that a database of user video reviews would be pretty cool.  LOL...

Honestly I'd never get to it but I have SF2:WW and Carrier Airwing PCB's in my jamma cab.  Airwing is a fun Shmup.  Horizontal though.  ;)

Carrier Air Wing soooo rocks.
It was the first game that opened up the potential
in PalmMAME for me.  Nothing like playing on-the-go
when you can't be by your cab.

I really enjoyed this.  I don't think it would be too bad without the subtitles though.  Im in the US and understand you perfectley.
