This game was ,massive back in the day but are any of the versions actually great games?

They say it's military grade. Let's freeze it! The Oukitel RT6

It doesn't surprise me that Taito cancelled this one as it is very odd. It also explains where the US SNES version was cancelled.

Another odd but addictive Taito shooter - This is Syvalion on this week's Battle of the Ports.

Featuring a TSMC chipset, The UMIDIGI A15 is a good entry level device

Yep, that's the one. The Mega Drive can actually display up to 128colours at once with some cleaver programming but that's still far below the CPS1. But, colour can easily be customised to give similar results without many people noticing. For example, when looking at a Capcom CPS1 title, can you count more that a few hundred different colours being used? Absolutely not. Most of that colour is in shading and this is how cleaver art direction can help bring similar results with less colours.

Capcom had nothing to do with the Mega Drive port. All Capcom Mega drive ports before Street Fighter 2 were converted by Sega. The reason for the less than arcade quality tile work is all down to memory on the cartridge. They Mega Drive could easily have more variation but at the expense of more memory. Back in the very early 90s memory was expensive so using less was a good thing. There's also a Ghouls'n Ghosts remake for the Mega Drive which replaces the original graphics with those of the Arcade and it looks stunning. Again, the game originally looked weaker due to a lack of memory. That game is only 4mbit.

1 coin PC and many more gaming pickups plus YOUR buys as well!

Nice one but it's a shame they are just releasing remakes and acting as a publisher for other companies like Gung-Ho, YUCK! Who knows, maybe one day they'll return with an all new in-house developed IP.

It's time for another remastering of a video! Battle of the Ports Remastered - Strider (ストライダー飛竜) Show 474 - 60fps

Back in the 80's I would watch films and TV where something like this was science fiction. It's amazing what we have now! By the way, this is NOT streaming from the cloud, it's running on the watch natively.

This week on Battle of the Ports is a Saturn shooter that should have been so much better.

Here's a look at the new AGM Pad P1. Will it survive the water test?

Battle of the Ports - Heiankyo Alien

The 8BitDo M30 just got a whole lot sexier.
