    The TV issue you're talking about is a voltage regulation issue. TVs shoot higher voltage for bright images and lower voltage for darker scenes, this circuit is usually part of the flyback transformer. A shitty TV might not be able to handle this very well.

    I played this on Sega Master System when I was a kid. I was about ten or eleven and I ALMOST beat it. A few years ago I found it for the iPad and it was so much harder. That kind of precision steering just cannot be done on a touchscreen.

      You'd think otherwise, huh!... Immediate touch response, finger dragging (I don't know, I imagine you drag the ship with your finger to move it..?) and yet, go figure! On the other hand, maybe it's too much in your way, blocking the screen. I don't like that in many "touch-n-drag" mobile games. Not to mention *this* kind of one...

    I've always understood the concept of James and Mike Monday's. It is just a shame that casual or ignorant viewers often come in and bash their performance, thinking it to be some sort of speed run or from a purists perspective.
    No matter how many times James and Mike explain, people still do not understand. I put it down to casual viewers. Which is very ironic when you think about it, people bash them for being a "casual" yet little do they know they're the "casual" viewer which leads to a false perspective.

      James has beaten many hard games. You most likely do not watch Mike's live streams either where he also beats lots of hard games, challenges included.
      Another thing, playing a game completely on your own is completely different experience. They're often talking to each other and the added pressure of the camera with thousands of viewers. Which a lot of people call it "The curse of the streamer"
      PS
      Most of the games James and Mike play are ones either they have never played before or haven't played seriously for like 20 years.

    This was one of my favorites. I could never get a full two runs on hard and pro, though. I always choked on stage five, I think, on Pro.

    Oh my god, this was one of the games that I got with the SNES my uncle gave me when I was 9. The others were Super Mario World, Primal Rage, Nigel Mansell's F1 (put a lot of time into this one), Strike! (some generic soccer game), Atlanta 1996 (no time put into that one), and Super Turrican 2 (I instantly fell in love with this one. It also scared the shit out of my little brothers. heh.).

    My fave game series :D:D:D !!!
    Also, the plot of the series is a "stock" kind of "mankind Vs evil aliens", which in R-Type are callen "Bydo", but that's only until the PSX chapter of "R-Type Delta", where there are hints that the Bydos are more than mere alien creatures.
    This culminates in the PS2 game "R-Type Final", where is explained and shown that the Bydo are actually humans being turned into these alien creatures by some sort of failed experiment in deep space.
    If you feel like getting back to the series you should check out either Delta or Final, are amazing.

    They were really challenging & that was one of the great things about those games.I always hated when I'd save up my allowance back then & I'd go out buy a game I thought would last me a while but I'd end up beating it in a day or two.

    Also Mike saying you don't have to know very much to pick up a shmup and see how far you can get almost never applies to arcade shmups Shinobu Yagawa worked on.

    When my TV used to roll, I'd slap it across the side and it would work again. I know people see that in movies, but it really did work. Didn't teach me much tolerance for technology though, the solution was apparently violence.

    I remember playing Gradius 3 long ass time ago and if you died at a boss it was tough because you have to fight him again with barely any power ups the next times.

    • @sebastiann.8088
      @sebastiann.8088 6 років тому

      Actually you lost all the power uos upon dying so basically you started with nothing

    This is a fantastic game. It took me five days to get to the end and beat the final boss. We’re talking around 12 hours of play each day so about 60 hours. Tough game but lots of fun.

    Super R-Type or better known as the slowest shooter on the SNES. They never made it to the most hectic levels where the frames drop to single digits.

    I prefer the original R-Type on TG-16 and R-Type 3 also on SNES, but Super R-Type is decent. Kinda wish it were just a straight port of R-Type II, though.
