Shoot the roof off a bunker so you can shoot the turrets of the tanks inside, then finally clean up the burning tanks themselves. Huge moving ships with shootable turrets, trains, industrial areas, tanks that hide in jungle foliage. It's no Raiden but it came out in 1987.

Cruis'n USA on the arcade cabinet was always a good one

2 > 4 > 1 > X > 3 > 5 > 6

assuming all played with autofire and CPU overclock for no slowdown.

Tiger-Heli mogs it.

>>11495310
what about picrel/xx (even though its not retro)?
>>
>>11495316
the DS version has a ton of slowdown and the Steam version is laggy as fuck (input lag) so it's nearly unplayable for me. From what little I've played from it, it seems similar to 6 in design, just worse.

30 fps disqualifies any arcade game from 10/10
>>
>>11495086
2D games that run at 30fps are cancer. There I said it. I'm sorry, but it is what it is. Beautiful pixel art though.

Zoomer revisionism. Framerate was always important. Most didn't know the numbers but they could tell a choppy game from a smooth one.

the issue with Metal Slug is the slowdown so much more than the framerate. The "choppiness" is that slowdown where the game is constantly grinding to a halt because game speed is tied to framerate. With CPU overclock, Metal Slug feels fantastic even at 30fps.

Low framerate and framerate drops are bad because of input lag and dropped inputs; Metal Slug with overclock has very low input lag and no issue with dropped inputs, so it's not an issue.

30 fps is fine faggot, Out run and Virtua Racing were nuts at the time

Metal Slug 2 sux.

>>11495086
Most CPS1 and CPS2 games were 10/10
>>
>>11495962
that's not a dropped input, that's how the animation works, it's the same in all the games, it takes a few frames to duck down during which you can't do certain actions

lol

Whatever happened to the Neo Geo 3 console they were supposed to release that is shaped like the Metal Slug tank?

The Neo Geo mini sucks
ASP is simply too ugly like a Fisher price toy

I owned that game growing up and it felt really lazy. no 2 player mode. Literally just the arcade mode and that's it.

Let’s be real though, Cruis’n World outclasses USA in every single aspect.

The N64 port was fucking great too, rare instance of a 3D home port of a modern arcade game being almost 1:1 to the arcade machine.

Why do you have five fucking shitty CAVE games, and some of the worst of their lineup at that? Why do you have a shitty knock-off Slug but only one actual Slug (not even the best one)? Why do you have 3 Capcom beat em ups? Why do you have mid like Golden Axe, Rambo 3, and Beast Busters?

You're missing tons of classics like
>Elevator Action Returns
>Shock Troopers
>Tetris the Grandmaster
>Splatterhouse
>Makaimura / Daimakaimura
>GI Joe
>Out Zone
>In The Hunt
>Metal Slug 1, 2, 3, 4
>Sunset Riders
>Gun.Smoke
>Mercs
>Aliens

As well as tons of good shmups from a variety of devs (instead of just all CAVEshit) like
>Rayforce
>Armed Police Batrider
>Raiden 2
>Sonic Wings
>Sengoku Ace
>Darius Gaiden
>Batsugun
>King of Dragons
>Hishouzame
>>
>>11499901
Ghouls 'N Ghosts
>>
>>11499954
Those are just my favorite CAVE titles, but I admit they're my favorites because of the re-releases. I wanted to check out the originals.
>why Metal Slug X
Same deal. It's the one I played the most when I was a kid.
>why Capcom
I just like capcom.
Thanks for the lists. I'll make sure to try them out.

Download a MAME romset from github and then just filter by game or by company or by genre. There are so, so, so many cool games you have never ever heard of.
