Arcade vs Console 4

Episode 374 - Let's look at games that originated in the arcade and see what changes were made when they arrived on home platforms. SPOILER: They all had changes.

[GameSack]

What arcade ports to what platforms do you find interesting?

[supersharpgamer]

The end skit properly summed up modern gaming.

[JomasterTheSecond]

I hope Joe makes his own Game Sack branded Video Glove. It's specifically made to work with Greendog and Greendog alone.

A true Game Sack fan never misses the end credit scenes! Great video as always, Joe!

My local arcade had Undercover Cops and I loved playing it. I loved pulling out those random poles. Unfortunately so did my girlfriend which is why we're no longer together :D

[alster]

One Interesting thing about Undercover Cops, there's an updated version for the Arcades called Undercover Cops Alpha Renewal (It has the alpha symbol in the front of the logo) which came out later the same year. It features even better graphics, like the second level intro has a beautiful new background, better controls (including jump dash attacks and some extra desperation movies) but most important, the music is MUCH better, with a better soundfont and some voices added, If the original version was already rather unknown, then this one was even more hidden!

Being awake at 2am to see a new GameSack video as it's uploaded feels like catching Santa Claus in the act.

Can’t believe we’re already about to get into the fourth year of robotic, explosive baseball. The future is awesome!

[theharvardyard]

I actually liked the extra detail that 9 hits would have completely destroyed Robontic. Fun extra lore!

[REzado]

I remember playing chop lifter on my master system for the first time. The first stage going underground and the music changed I thought to myself. Shit just got real

[EpicLebaneseNerd]

2 things i love :
''hello and welcome'', it is such a good greeting.
the after credit skit, they are always funny and creative.
wish they make an ep every sunday, but we can't ask for the impossible.

[ToddJambon]

I'm going to need more radio buddy updates for old games. That was amazing.

[darkhierophant]

You outdid yourself with Forgotten Worlds here. Thanks!

[robinthom]

6 years watching.... Still as great as ever.

[Sharmac]

You didnt mention the INSANE and RADICAL arcade machine the r360 that sometimes housed the gloc game. Maybe further coverage in a “specialty arcade machines” episode.

[LobsterPuncher]

I would love to get into retro gaming, but it's so hard without Radio Buddy®. Sonic really was ahead of its time.

[scamazonprime]

I could watch you play Sonic all day. Especially with that damn good video quality.

[gfdggdfgdgf]

I've said it before but I'll say it again: the quality of the gameplay footage is miles ahead of any other retro gaming channel. The scanlines look so incredibly good!

[Xodyak]

Who doesn't watch the end sketches? They're great.

Also impressed that you got through all of Air Busters back-to-back-to-back. That game is tough.

[Justpain]

I always stay for the end credits. I love goofy stuff.
