re: Any retro gamers here?

Pretty sure the version on Evercade is the original arcade one with stand-ins for famous wrestlers like Dynamite Kid and the Road Warriors.
That being said, Hamster Corp has put out an insane number of arcade games under various labels.
These range from late 70s games to stuff at least as recent as the early 90s like Sunset Riders and various Neo Geo games such as the Metal Slug series.

Metal Slug

I still want an old school Tron cabinet but I think the prices have gotten out of hand for it.
Christ, I’d probably have trouble putting my hands on the Arcade 1up version at this point.

retro gaming thread and not a single mention of a RetroPie build?
Had one for a while. I really enjoyed it but it eventually died on me. I've got an Anbernic handheld now and it is pretty damn rad.

Would love to get a mint copy of River City Ransom

The two that I bought on Xbox were 1942 and Time Pilot. In my childhood I was in Japan, and a lot of the games had different names, so I'll stumble across stuff like Phantasy Star and get obsessed every few years.

So, recently bought two new games for my SNES.
Playing through RPG right now.

Whoa thanks for posting, havent been around in a while
I think I'm about to pickup Mega Man X legacy collection 2 because I really want to pickup those later X's like MMX4 and especially 5.
I started Final Fantasy 7 again on PS5 it has some cool newer features like fast forward navigation through areas.
IDK if you call those retro or not but I do enjoy Castlevania 1 and 3 from time to time
Turtles in Time would be a fun one to try and run.
"Perfect run" is running the game without a hit, regardless of time. "Speed run" is game launch to final boss (all events you can control) as fast as the software allows. Plenty of runs are available on Youtube. These gamer scientists set world records, etc.
I don't really like speed runs in certain cases, it depends on glitches and stuff the developers didn't fix and it wasn't intended to be. But a player has to execute timing which doesn't diminish their skill level at all, but that's just my opinion.

SMRPG is one of my favorites.
Funny story about that game. When I was a kid, the local video store used to let me take games home for free to try out and give the store a “review” so that can decide if they want to buy more copies. The owner had no idea what an RPG was and thought it was a traditional Mario game and I got to keep it until I beat it lol

I play retro games from time to time. I bought one of those mini snes a few years ago with like 30 built in games. Went online and found out how to download more games into it. Have about 100 to 150 in it, from Genesis to NES.

I had the nes one. I got it from best buy late last decade. I was unhappy with it there was latency issues with super Mario bros. Your buttons wouldn't register until like a half second later and it was so bad I couldnt play it. I did play ninja gaiden and a couple others fine but they dropped the ball on their most famous game
