Rocket Knight Adventures: Re-Sparked! - Gameplay Showcase

Note: The game has received a patch since I recorded this, though I haven't been able to look at it yet.

Here's an early showcase of Rocket Knight Adventures: Re-Sparked! ahead of it's June 11th digitial launch. Directly captured and uploaded from my PlayStation 5, no idea what happened with the coloring in this video, it's certainly not how it looked on the system. My impressions of the collection are very positive, visual and audio emulation seem great, with some good included extras. Also apologizes for my garbage gameplay on RKA 2 lol.

thank you for showing early footage of this collection! I love these games so much and as someone who’s played these games multiple times, this gives me good hope that the emulation lives up to my favorite obscure possum.
one thing I couldn’t help but notice is the stuff they edited in the game from what I’ve seen. At least from what I’ve noticed so far (aside from the removed sega and Nintendo license disclaimers), I noticed Sparkster Rocket Knight Adventures 2 (the Genesis game) removes the options for controls and the sound test within the game. I think that may be because of the collection re-purposing the controls and sound test in the extras I believe? I also still can’t figure out what the boost mode for SNES Sparkster does either

but yeah that’s what I’m assuming for now. I have the game pre-ordered digitally so I’m eager to go through these games again!

30:24 Whoa... I didn't know Sparkster was an alchoholic. Seriously, though, why is *he* of all people drinking?

I've played *Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection* before and beaten all 13 games. I'm confident in completing *Rocket Knight Adventures: Re-Sparked* when it releases next week. 😉

I’m not sure if I ever beat this game. I remember playing this with a friend 30+ years ago, and the last part i remember is fighting that underwater crab like boss

Why is the sound emulation so muffled?
