Yakumo1975 Posted October 31, 2020 Author Share Posted October 31, 2020 It's time for another remastered Battle of the Ports. The original Shinobi video was uploaded 6 years ago. Ran at 30fps 720p with no voice over. It also only covered 9 versions of Shinobi. This Remastered video runs at 60fps 1080p, has a voiceover and covers 12 versions of shinobi. Editing and sound balance is also a lot tighter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd been intrigued by it on the ST, but didn't have a a 1Meg machine, so later picked it up on the Mega Drive and fell in love with it. But never tried it since completing it all those years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a really tough game. It's one of those were you have to memorise everything in order to succeed. New video today, About time, something that works well for a reasonable price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yakumo1975 Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 A device NOT designed in China but is it any better? Check out the video to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yakumo1975 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) So sorry for the delay in getting this one out. It should have been released last week but real life is just too busy these days. Anyway, hope you enjoy this one. The original Double Dragon Battle of the Ports featured 16 versions. This video features 20 but is actually missing the Game Gear and Xbox 360 Double Dragon Neon as I felt neither of those should be included. If I could have gotten the mobile phone ports working there would have been 22 versions. Oh well.

Yakumo1975 Posted November 23, 2020 Author Share Posted November 23, 2020 I love Brook products. They're lag free and extremely reliable. So it comes as no surprise I've got another item from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I need to check out the GBA version for sure. Also, for what its worth, my son liked the look of the 360 version the best. In the meantime, take care and keep up the great work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really did enjoy playing DD Neon on the 360 with my Son but we never did ply the remake of the arcade game. I think it would appeal to the younger kids mainly due to the comic style looks. Today, A game I had a lot of fun with back in the early 90s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfleet Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 After watching this latest episode, I want to track down a copy of Test Drive II on the SNES and/or Genesis. The SNES one in particular looks great! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, it doesn't play N64 and/or Dreamcast that well. But, it can run everything up until PS1 and is a joy to have in the hand. Definitely Anbernic's build quality is top notch and I cannot recommend this handheld enough. Granted, I really enjoyed my Retroflag GPi, but this beats it hands down in every way. I highly recommend it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punisher5.0 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Those graphics on the 360 version look terrible and ruin the game. The SNES and Genesis versions with their sprite based graphics are where its at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though this Divoom Timebox Evo was sent to me after reviewing the last Divoom item I bought, my views are completely unaffected. I truly do like this item. Great sound for the size and a very nice display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very good episode as it is a hard pill to swallow when one is old enough to recall the time when TMNT were such a dominate force in the entertainment and/or toy industry. Still, what a time to be alive back in the late 80s / early 90s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have that same copy now. Still looks new too. New video out today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't had much experience with the N4S series, but the start of the series was something special, that's for sure. Also, personally, I love N4S III: Hot Pursuit for the PS1. Great game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
