ITT: 10/10 arcade games
Loved playing Raiden.
you start, OP
Top notch art
>>11495086Shoot 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.
>>11495086Cruis'n USA on the arcade cabinet was always a good one
2 > 4 > 1 > X > 3 > 5 > 6assuming all played with autofire and CPU overclock for no slowdown.
>>11495214Tiger-Heli mogs it.
>>11495310what about picrel/xx (even though its not retro)?
>>11495316the 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
>>114950862D games that run at 30fps are cancer. There I said it. I'm sorry, but it is what it is. Beautiful pixel art though.
>>11495330>>11495337nobody gave a single shit back then. This is pure zoomer revisionism from poser faggot retards with no clears. Fuck right off.
>>11495339I have clears... on MAME.
>>11495339They probably didI tried playing tmnt 1 and it was fucking horrid shit Ranger X felt fine though... until I was a hour in and my eyes started feeling raped
>>11495339not an argument
>>11495339>nobody gave a single shit back thenZoomer revisionism. Framerate was always important. Most didn't know the numbers but they could tell a choppy game from a smooth one.
Joust
Rastan!
>>11495474the 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.
>>1149533730 fps is fine faggot, Out run and Virtua Racing were nuts at the time

>>11495726This.
Die Hard Arcade
>>11495936dynamite deka?
>>11495687>Metal Slug with overclock has very low input lag and no issue with dropped inputs
>>11495962Metal Slug 2 sux.
>>11495086Most CPS1 and CPS2 games were 10/10
>>11495962that'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
>>11495474>Framerate was always important.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 sucksASP is simply too ugly like a Fisher price toy
>>11495316I owned that game growing up and it felt really lazy. no 2 player mode. Literally just the arcade mode and that's it.
>>11495086
>>11495503BAN is a true G
>>114950861 was ok, but 2 is where the series peaked
>>11495316Different developer
>>11495339Its true, I had no idea what a framerate was until digital foundry told me
>>11495180I never understood wtf is going on in the background of the top right pic, did the Big Ben fell over or what?
I just built a PC for MAME. Anything I should add to my list? Looking for the best of the best, so I try to limit it to 1 per franchise.>Metal Slug X>KoF 2002>Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3>Marvel VS Capcom>The Simpsons>TMNT Turtles in Time>Alien VS Predator>X-men>Killer Instinct>Golden Axe>Cleopatra Fortune>Pang>The Punisher>Deathsmiles>Ibara>DoDonPachi Resurrection>Mushihimesama>Jojo's Bizarre Arcade>Cotton 2>Gunbird 2>Strider>Rambo 3>Beast Busters>Demon Front>Captain Commando>Muchi Muchi Pork!
>>11495219Let’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.

>>11499901Why 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>AliensAs 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
>>11499901Ghouls 'N Ghosts
>>11499954Those 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 XSame deal. It's the one I played the most when I was a kid. >why CapcomI just like capcom.Thanks for the lists. I'll make sure to try them out.

>>11495086>30FPS run and gunNo thanks.
>>11499901Download 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.
>>11500003Sly spy but no bad dudes? Cmon man.
