Does No One Love Popeye?
abzman2000:
I'm still worried though, he never said whether or not he was going to do it, he just left. I hope he didn't
Singapura:
I love Popeye (the game that is ;) ) for personal reasons

I used to play it all the time on my Atari 800 as well. I agree it was a great conversion. I've just started playing it a little in Mame again recently.

The whole mechanic frustrates me, constantly going up and down the levels, sometimes struggling to hit the diagonals for the steps and not being able to do just a little jump to get that note or heart thats dropping slowly above me.
I really don't like a lot of Nintendo's Golden Age games. I like DK, but don't care for DK Jr, and think DK3 is awful.

There are no diagonals on Popeye. It's 4-way. You have to press up or down at the right time when approaching the stairs. I think the game's great, especially the graphics. Looks really good on a PC CRT, too. As well, DKjr is awesome. Different than DK, but just as cool. DK3 is...different...but fun enough once you accept some things. And it actually gets pretty hard. Many things to dodge while you're trying to spray Kong.
