The people who do those silly Mario Paint compositions might get a kick out of this for actual 8-bit fun!<br /><br /><br />PUNCH-OUT<br />Another classic. Kinda surprised they didn't try to develop this into an OVA or something.<br /><br /><br />THE KARATE KID<br />Whaddayknow, an LJN Craptserpiece!<br /><br /><br />ARCADE HISTORY:<br />Still, "SDI's" vision of NY getting nuked was a very common thing we saw a lot back then. Not that they couldn't do it now (unless they use another city or have to have it happen elsewhere like Tokyo, which gets bombed constantly in kaiju/tokusatsu/anime daily).<br /><br />No doubt the 1987 arcade scene was a big one. I remember when I first saw Pac-Mania around that time and literally wet my pants!Chris Sobieniakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09838106041175506925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186345736950611814.post-27008134494074742012009-09-10T05:54:58.677-07:002009-09-10T05:54:58.677-07:00excelent work, i really like you're videos

And the shot of him at the very end in humanoid form, with hair, is a little creepy looking. And what is the ASCII connection about, I wonder?<br /><br />In regard to Contra, Konami's explanation of the word seems a bit disingenuous. I assume they were aiming for something that implied "guys with guns fighting in the jungle." Either way, the first time I saw the cabinet, I do recall being a bit surprised that a video game would name itself something as controversial as "Contra."Doctor Sparklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01328442015557051088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186345736950611814.post-51704084493175708652009-09-07T00:09:16.006-07:002009-09-07T00:09:16.006-07:00I LOVE YOU DR SPARKLEI LOVE YOU DR SPARKLEAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186345736950611814.post-31342702650537686742009-09-06T06:51:27.185-07:002009-09-06T06:51:27.185-07:00Air Foot has an ASCII copyright and an ending with...Air Foot has an ASCII copyright and <a href="http://d.hatena.ne.jp/video/niconico/sm7912610" rel="nofollow">an ending with good English</a>.<br /><br />Karnov was by Data East, not Nichibutsu.CRVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14354164697176922756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186345736950611814.post-43034178626301513072009-09-02T10:53:02.615-07:002009-09-02T10:53:02.615-07:00And I just looked into wikipedia what the title Co...And I just looked into wikipedia what the title Contra is in game explained as: A title awarded to a superior soldier possessing almost super human drive and ability, while excelling in guerrilla tactics.<br /><br />How the guys of Konami came up with it is questionable, I think these potheads of the crative department used up a monthly dose of the shit they smoke and just puzzled random letters together.qaylIS aka Nicolas Deußerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03943098766424527157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186345736950611814.post-62372445378557332682009-09-02T10:48:12.433-07:002009-09-02T10:48:12.433-07:00Nice Episode,expecially the Bonus Content was inte...Nice Episode,expecially the Bonus Content was interesting, and I am looking forward to try some ofe the arcade games on an emulator.qaylIS aka Nicolas Deußerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03943098766424527157noreply@blogger.com
