Endrant Star is looking promising. I'm seeing influences from Pulstar, Andro Dunos and Gradius from what I've seen so far.

Played Huntdown on Switch, but had to grab that big box for PS4. It didn't disappoint.

Might be time for a Huntdown replay. Outstanding game, I'd love a sequel.

Received Rival Megagun from First Press games today, it took just over a month since I ordered. Still waiting for Crimson Clover (4 years now, I believe 💀)... @arronetchells.bsky.social

My attempt to restore the artwork of #RType by Naoyuki Katoh used on the cover of the #MSX and #SharpX68000 releases in Japan. Removed text/logos, taking some creative liberties with the game logo free piece, applying the usual clean/retouch process with no need for upscale.

Here, the R-Type II (and the original game's) pixel artist, describes how and why II's final aesthetic didn't match his original vision. Fascinating. x.com/akio_1963/st...

Post de apreciación de los bosses de Gaiares (Telenet, 1990). Muy cuidados gráficamente, pero también con una sensación de movimiento por encima de lo habitual en su combo de género, sistema y época. youtu.be/Ao_8Mt8jTgQ?...

2,09 Euro for Sega Ages Phantasy Star, Virtua Racing, Fantasy Zone and many others. You really, REALLY should invest that money. These are the best version of some all-time classics. Get these! Get Herzog Zwei! Get Out Run! It's a steal!

Nichibutsu's 1989 STG 'Tatakae! Big Fighter' is this weeks Arcade Archives release. For reasons unknown however it's landing on Switch today but isn't coming to PS4 for another 2 days?!? Hopefully this doesn't become a trend #ビッグファイター #アーケードアーカイブス #アケアカ
