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.

Also featured on Vol.6 is Digital Dance Mix & Taromaru on the Saturn, Yuu Suzuki Game Works on the Dreamcast, Contra Spirits for the SFC, Street Fighter 2 on the X68000 and Dennen Aleste for the Mega CD.

Yet another improvement over the previous Retro Core shows with the high resolution version being almost 100 Meg smaller in size than volume : 3. Featured in Volume : 4 is an interview with a Japanese Retro Game store owner and well as a quick look around his shop. Of course there's loads of gaming goodies too, including a Final Fight special ! Just which home version of Final Fight is truly the best? Plus PC Engine Power Drift, Master System Phantasy Star, SFC Super Aleste, Saturn Sega Touring Cars, Dreamcast Rent-a-Hero, Neo Geo Metal Slug and Game Boy Turtles fall of the Foot Clan !! Enjoy.
