    This is WHY you should play these games on MAME and NOT on consoles, you don't have to mess with this stupid minor details because you are playing just the SAME game directly from the arcade. MAME rules

    Revenge of Shinobi on the Sega Genesis featured homages to Godzilla, Spider-man and Batman. That could spell a lawsuit these days. Which may explain why it's taken this long to see Revenge of Shinobi on any compilation or online service. It's actually my favorite of the 2D Shinobi games.

    Shenmue is a no-brainer. Of course, since MS locked the request thread after a year and hundreds of posts, it seems rather unlikely.


    Daytona would also be awesome. I have a racing seat & wheel waiting for it.


    Hell, I modded my DC Interact Concept 4 wheel with a jack to add a gearshifter I made out of an old ball joystick in a radio shack project box, which is velcro'd to a sideways plastic CD rack. If you go to Photobucket & search for Billkwando, there are pics of said monstrosity.

    While Gunstar is clearly going to be fucking awesome, I can't see Sonic 3 being worth a buy at all unless they remedy the glaring lack of Sonic & Knuckles lock-on support in the Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection for the XBLA release.

    No half assed emulations though Sega. I've had just about enough of that.

    Agreed. I'm much more interested in reskinning some of these games than I am paying for exact ports yet again.


    Heck- as long as Gunstar Heroes has online co-op, I'm in. I don't care that I own it twice over already. No online co-op, no cookie.

    NO. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, NO. Altered Beast was NEVER good. Stop giving us that god forsaken garbage! I didn't want it when it was a pack-in with my Genesis, I didn't wnat it on Sega Genesis Collection for PS2, and I don't want it now.


    Just stop. Please. It's a terrible game and the only reason why anybody remembers that game is for the opening quote, "Wise fwom youwa gwave!"

    "Any requests?"


    Time Traveler. With some sort of hologram peripheral.


    I know it'll never happen, but the DVD version is the only viable way of playing it anymore... and without the holograms, it's just a hilariously bad and long quick-time event.


    Okay, it's a hilariously bad and long QTE even WITH the holograms, but I miss it nonetheless.

    Shinobi is boring, get me Shinobi 3


    or better yet...


    Someone get TECMO or (KT) to release the arcade verion of Ninja Gaiden. Nothing is more traumatizing to a child than frantically searching your pockets for a another spare quarter before the poor ninja is brutally mutilated with a saw in the "continue?" screen.

    @Rompehamster:


    Couldn't you just go play through Ninja Gaiden Black (not the XBL version, the disc version) and unlock Ninja Gaiden Arcade?


    Could probably find it cheap...
