>one of the best platformers ever made.>a contender for Taitos best ever game.>never mentioned ... ever.what the heck, this needs to stop.this game is a god damn masterpiece and its time /vr/ paid its respects.https://youtu.be/luvw39ppu4c?feature=shared
>>11987641is that a pukeku
>>11987641It's pretty good for an arcade game, felt like a high-quality console platformer, not just some quarter munching garbage. Really should have been developed in a home title, instead of just a port. It's sovl for sure.
>>11987641Arcade games don't exist for westerner gaming "historians" unless it's Metal Slug, Donkey Kong or Street Fighters
>>11987804that sucks because as an autist I really crawl through everything I even go to japanese image boards to learn more.
>>11987641I don't think it's bad, but I don't get the high praise for the game. I played through it and never felt the need to replay.
>>11987794>not just some quarter munching garbage.this, it was a video game, not a scam
>>11987804>Angry Video Game Nerd and NintendoGamer2004 on youtube have never talked about arcade games, so that means nobody in the West knows about arcade games at all
>>11988005>Top 250 video games of all time list by [any-fucking-body]>4 arcade games tops
>>11988012>>Top 250 video games of all time list by [any-fucking-body]Who gives a shit about youtubers
>>11987641Looks like Kirby
>>11987804As opposed to weeb arcadefags who refuse to acknowledge any video game which can't be installed inside a candy cab?
>>11987641Liquid Kids is 20x better.
>>11988020even (((journalist sites))) do that shit.
>>11988093journalist lists shouldnt even be mentioned
>>11987641>the best europlatformer ever made>it's made by Japanesecan't make this shit up
>>11988041its a precursor to kirby
>>11987792it's supposed to be a kiwi. Not a pukeko.Oddly, this thread reminded me that I dreamed about kiwis last night.
>>11988073no, as opposed to people who were there when arcades were a thing and love arcade games
>>11988308Arcadefags are the most insufferable people in retro gaming.
>>11987641Why was it yellow?
>>11988382
>>11988360Why not yellow?And where do kiwis purchase sneakers?
>>11987641Is the arcade version the best or is there a port that's even better?
>>11988627Arcade is best, Amiga best port, PC-engine okay, avoid Megadrive.
>>11988627Arcade is the clear winner, all ports are inferior in some way. NES gets points for Follin music arrangements, though.
>>11988627arcade wins but it has a surprising number of good ports. Ocean actually delivered
>>11989382NES has an original Follin soundtrack?
>>11990192No, the Follin brothers rearranged the original Taito soundtrack for the port, I think just the title theme is brand new.https://youtu.be/tymzoFRAqlY?t=34
>>11990221Taitos only flaw, every single level has the same music
>>11987641I love that game. There's a comparison video on all versions somewhere on YouTube. I rented out the master system version from the video shop heaps of times
I should visit new zealand
>>11991259Just don't look up any adult stuff there.
Used to clear the Amiga version all the time with one life. Did you know that the kiwi can briefly fly by quickly taping the jump button?
motherfucking kiwi bastards...
