Retro-Core! (ep09)

Super Nintendo Entertainment SystemImage via Wikipedia


Retro-Core is produced by a guy (called Yakumo) who lives in Japan and tries to cover a ton of classic, rare, or weird video games. He shows footage of them in action, talks briefly about them, and gives a hands on opinion.









More games than ever before plus a brand new feature called East2West that shows how games are bastardized for the western market. In this first feature we take a look at what happened to NCSâs very colourful Ranma 1/2 when Irem released it in the States. Other goodies include Super Bikuriman on the SFC for Shite of the Month â Arcade Columns â97 â Saturn Sega Rally â Mobile Phone Metal Slug STG â Sharp X68000 Detana Twinbee (originally filmed for RC Vol.9) â Dreamcast Blue Submarine No.6 â Tech Romancer for the Anime Corner â Mega Drive Valis III â PSX Ridge Racer â Super Famicom Kikikaikai â Game Gear fatal Fury Special and Famicom Codename Viper. Thatâs whopping 13 different games or 14 if you count the East2West section as two different games.

Retro Core Vol:3 promises to be the best so far ! Back by popular demand is the Hardware close up plus a new Vs feature which will show the same game running on two platforms. Here's what you can expect to see. Arcade Special (Film of inside a retro arcade), Best Christmas game ever (you probably know what this will be), Axelay and Run Saber on the SFC, Granada on the Sharp X68000, Bari-arm on Mega CD, Techomotor on Saturn, Panorama Cotton on the Mega Drive. PC Engine Vs Mega Drive special (Devil Crash).

Two new features are introduced in this volume which are "The Anime Corner" which shows the introduction from one of the many Japanese love adventure games out there and "Shite of the Month" which you can probably guess what that's about.

Games covered in volume 7 are Mega Drive Virtua Racing, Saturn Elevator Action Returns, PlayStation G-Darius, Super Famicom Chomakai Mura (Super Ghouls & Ghosts), Master System Dynamite Dux, Dreamcast Fushigi Dungeon and Arcade Mercs.
