J.Max Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 The only port of STUN Runner was to the Lynx, until Midway Arcade Hits 3 I, Robot has never appeared on any console. Scud Racer has never appeared on any console. I don't think Arctic Thunder has ever been ported Many of the laserdisc games have never been ported, although most are emulated through Daphne or MAME. The biggest and most obvious omissions are the Incredible Technologies Games that use the 3Dfx platform: Golden Tee Fore!, Silverstrike Bowling, and Golden Tee Live!

Stan Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Mappy was also available for the NES via pirate carts from Supervision. Technically not an official release, but if you have an NES I thought I'd mention it if you're looking to play it because Supervision carts, at least last time I checked, aren't that expensive.

darthkur Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 How about 1976's Fonz? Wonder what this lady looks like today? I was thinking the exact same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinball22 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 For whoever asked, yes, Kickman exists for the C64, as a cart even. And I briefly misinterpreted the next post after the question asking what the Fonz woman looks like today, which simply says "Fire Truck!" as an answer to the question.

Arctic Thunder is one of the harder to get PS2 titles. I've only ever seen two copies of it. I own one and I sold the other years ago.

PressureCooker2600 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I was thinking the exact same thing. She's probably in her mid-to-late 50's. She'd probably get a kick that someone actually dug up a picture of her from a 30 year old modelling gig that she's probably long forgotten. And then she'd get depressed that she looked pretty damn good back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I was going to say Astro Invader, as it was a favorite of mine, but then I remembered it was called Kamikaze in other parts of the world, and it was liscensed for the VTech Laser-VZ. Dont ask me, I have no idea.... I just read it in the games info file in Mame. Other games that come to mind.... Asteroid Deluxe Space Invaders Deluxe (Deluxe Invaders for Atari 8-bit was good, but not licensed). Journey (Game from DataAge for the 2600 was NOT the same game) Lunar Lander - There was a port for the C64 called Jupiter Lander Moon Cresta (Eagle) Red Baron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinball22 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I'm confused... you must not mean that, White Knight, or else you only go for much younger women, since according to your profile you were 4 in 1976. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impaler_26 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 The only port of STUN Runner was to the Lynx, until Midway Arcade Hits 3 S.T.U.N. Runner was also released on the C64 and other homecomputers. I do not believe that Jump Bug was ever released on a console. Jump Bug was released on the Arcadia 2001.

I said "most", I wasn't necessarily talking about myself or not. Of course, I'd prefer a 24 year old, but I also "prefer" a Lamborghini, yet drive a Sable.

atarian63 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I can think of Nintendo's Computer Othello, but there were tons of others. Let's talk about them. Tokyo Wars! A great tank game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunar Lander Moon Cresta (Eagle) Astro Invader - There's the port for the CV Astro Invader Asteroids Deluxe - Version for the 7800 Asteroids Deluxe Space Invaders Deluxe - There's always the Collections for both the CV and 7800 plus a port of the CV one for the MSX. Lunar Lander - It's on the Flashback 2.........sort of. Moon Cresta - Is on Nichibutsu Arcade Classics for the Super Famicom, on the same cart with Crazy Climber and Frisky Tom.

J.Max Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I mentioned Scud Racer...I thought of a few others: (Some of these aren't the oldest games, but they've still never been ported. Most aren't even in MAME.) Star Wars Trilogy (Sega. It's in MAME, but doesn't work.) Psy Phi (Sega - wow this would be tough to port!) Mario Kart Arcade (I still want to race as Pac-Man!) Top Skater (Sega) Dolphin Blue (I think that this is the Atomiswave game that didn't get ported.) Warzard/Red Earth (It's in MAME and the CPS3 emu though) Sega Race TV Dactyl Nightmare Space Lords (What a great game!) Spider-Man (Sega) OutFoxies After Burner Climax Boon-ga Boon-ga (Could you imagine a port of this?!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonestn Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 atari skulls and crossbones released under tengen for the nes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keitaro Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I didn't know Nichibutsu classics was released for super nes. I know the psx-compilation (with revised versions too). And Moon cresta was released to ps2 too. Also you can find Moon Cresta available for spectrum, amstrad cpc and c=64. Tengen in association with Domark converted some coinops to 8 and 16 bits homecomputers (spectrum,c64, amiga, atari st...), but I don't remember Thunder Jaws as one of them. Was available for any system? I always wished a conversion of 2 spanish arcade games: Altair and Destroyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinball22 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Mario Kart Arcade (I still want to race as Pac-Man!)... Boon-ga Boon-ga (Could you imagine a port of this?!) My friends' six-year-old son had the same reaction when he played Mario Kart Wii for the first time... "Can I be Pac-Man in this one? No? Why not?" And a port of Boon-ga Boon-ga would require a special controller. One that I don't think could ever be used for any other games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
