What went wrong?
I think it was due to financial problems with their pin-ball machines despite being good quality, they also apparently had a lawsuit with capcom as Capcom argued that Data East's arcade game Fighter's History unlawfully copied from their own fighting game Street Fighter II. There was apparently another lawsuit with the company that made money puzzle exchange/ money puzzle exchanger as the game was extremely similar to magical drop which was made by data east.
>>12126557idk but I loved this game's music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoQxOx-afQM
>>12126576>Capcom acting like ripping off SF is a big deal and not something everyone was doing.What a bunch of dicks
Data East was the best bad developer. I can't think of anyone else who made such endearing junk as Trio the Punch and Tattoo Assassins.
>>12126557The world misunderstood Chelnov
>>12126557They did not ride Metal Max or Glory of Hercules like they should have
>>12127090It's funny how all the GoH games are in English now yet Shitendo is squatting the IP because nobody played the mediocre DS reboot.If you like the Last Bible series and the DQ Zenithian Trilogy, Glory of Heracles is for you. avoid the first game though, it's shit.
The world wasn't ready for Karnov.

>>12126774>Data East was the best bad developerWhat shituber started this meme?
>>12127628For every one of those titles they put out a big ol' junkburger like Bad Dudes, Crude Buster, Karnov, Karate Champ, and Ring King. They shoveled out plenty of slop.
>>12127636All of those are still competent games, nigger like jarpigs ffs know your fucking place
>>12127650No one has ever once enjoyed playing Karate Champ.
>>12126774I don't think you can really describe any of the prominent japanese arcade manufacturers from back then as bad, too big a gulf between them and actually terrible shovelware.
>>12127659Say that to its absolute commercial success and influence in the genre. Besides it's not even developed by Data East your retarded jarpig enjoyer
>>12127636>Bad Dudes>Karate ChampThis games are legendary
>>12127659
>>12126557Shovelware developers inevitably go bankrupt.It's not exactly hard to understand.
>>12127681>>12127687Holy hell. You have never played a good fighting game if you think Karate Champ is good.
>>12126557>a B-Wings remake would be fine too
>>12127759Fuck off already retarded attention whoring jarpig
>>12126774Bad dudesRobocopSly spyNigga, data east was great. Stupid dress wearing faggot.
>>12127759Karate Champ is good, homo.
>>12128270>>12128284Try playing Street Fighter 2 sometime. It'll blow your mind.
>>12128286Did you push your glasses up in a smug fashion after you typed that, nerd?
>>12128281x2 - some Great hits!
>>12127310*Joe & Mac
>>12128286>I can't enjoy older game because [newer game exists]Go back to /v/ tranny, all that hormones jarpigs and jewtubers destroyed your brain.
>>12128307>>12128393Sorry guys. I guess SF2 is a little too advanced for you. Maybe try Urban Champion and work your way up to it.
>>12128416You're supposed to mention Yie Ar Kung Fu not some tendieshit. Fucking worthless tranny abomination can't even get the joke right.
>>12128416I'm trans btw.
I like Windjammers
>>12127759For 1984 standards it was awesome, and even by today's standards I don't consider it a bad game
>>12128332That's a game that references Chelnov
>>12126557i really love this style of font/word art whatever you call it. any other examples of this? it just screams 80s glamour
>>12126557The left the industry to become a regular ass tech company and died after the dot com bubble burst.
>>12126557Western company desperately LARPing as a Japanese arcade developer.>b-butI’m exhausted by the blatant misinformation. Data East is western as fuck and the quality of their games reflects this.They tried so hard to pretend to be Japanese so they could avoid criticism because “oooh if this Japanese arcade game is bad it’s just because we don’t understand it…yes yes data east can do no wrong…honorable Japanese developer…”It’s an embarrassing notion and I’m glad these whiteys got BTFO of the market as hard as they did.
>>12128754Take your pills sister
Should have brought Metal Max to the west dur8ng the snes era
>>12128286>Street Fighter 2: 1991>Karate Champ: 1994
>>12129832Er, 1984It's fucking late, I should be asleep but I'm shitposting instead.Point is, you're basically comparing early SNES to late Atari 2600 era games, fag.

>>12128286I don't know, their Fighter History port for the Snes was way better than SFII.
>>12128517It's called desert chrome, thats why the bottom is colored gold like sand reflecting onto chrome. It was a very common style during that time.
