Thank you for your hard work on MAME, the help this has on game preservation cant be understated. As well just purely keeping these titles alive for future generations to experience and enjoy. I still have my ever growing MAME collection from the early 2000s. Arcades are a thing of the past where I live unfortunately so without MAME a lot of these would have been lost to time in my area. Thank you
I rented Williams Arcade Collection for the SNES as a kid and that damn Sinistar scared me as a kid. I was too afraid to pick that game afterward and stuck to Defender and Joust. Also shoutout to Carnevil, the first arcade game I’ve ever beaten and another horror light gun game worth trying.
I actually got to play Carnevil at an arcade and that's a game I'd recommend any day of the week. Give it a shot. I can't be mad I didn't see it here, lots of people might already know about it thanks to another UA-camr around these parts covering it in full.
So happy to see Drunk mentioning Zombie Revenge. It was my favorite game on Dreamcast, especially playing co-op with my older brother. Loved memorable bosses in this game and cheesy voice acting. It was tough as hell though, never got further than train level.
Speaking of Night Slashers, there's an OpenBOR fan made Streets of Rage game, that uses lots of sprites from Night Slashers, called Zombie Streets of Rage. It even features various Horror movie characters like Pennywise, Pinhead and the girl from The Ring as bosses. You can find it pretty easy online and it runs great even on potato computers.
Yeah, this BOR version is incredible... though I'm thinking of Night SlasherZ. Did they get a dcma and have to change the name? Anyway, manual input supers and stage reorganization is solid., and fan characters (though a bit sloppy) like Ash is fun.
Really happy to see Sinistar on this list! I recently made a mod for the game that reduces the difficulty by lowering the enemy populations, it's so much more fun to play now. I also found some unused sound effects and made a documentary video about those findings as well.
Space Gun may not be the most notable game in the world, but it was the first game of that style I ever saw, and far more technically impressive than anything I had seen at that point. I never even had a chance to play it, but it left a hell of an impression on me.
The Alien 3 arcade was pretty terrifying back when I was a kid. I can still remember the intense vibration of the huge guns that numbs my arm and the scary screeches of the aliens whenever they got shot.
This video brought me back to playing Area 51 with my dad at the Ball State University bowling alley. That's when I found out you could actually beat arcade games lol.
Awesome video as always. And for those folks who played House of the Dead, kudos to you if you can do the ultimate challenge: play by yourself with both guns and go John Wu on these zombies. It's a heck of a challenge
I'll say it; Night Slashers is underrated. Admittedly probably because it came out during a time when the market was saturated with beat'em-ups, but man, it just oozes style. I'm glad it's getting a second life as a remake
Aw, no love for Vampire Night? Easily my favorite of the horror mayhem rail shooters. Excited to take a look at some of these I’d never heard of, though.
He's been saying that for a while now. It just tends to come up more often on his arcade videos, since it's not too difficult to get/set up foreign home console gear these days.
I remember playing Zombie Raid at my local ice rink as a kid, and just being enthralled with it as a horror fanatic. And the amount of money I've spent playing House of the Dead and Zombie's Revenge is kind of absurd too. It reminds me that the game I got with my Dreamcast at launch was House of the Dead 2. Played it into the ground too.
Good list! I'm sure there are a ton more arcade horror games on top of this! The arcade always had a good helping of wild, gory, and freaky games! It is a shame some of these never got ported to home consoles. That Sinistar one is amazing! That one would have scared the heck out of me as a kid as it just seems to come out of nowhere! 😅
Alien 3 had such a physical presence in the arcades back in the day. So cool. Never got to play it enough. It was always one of the more expensive machines.
Thanks for the great list of games! I had no idea this Neo Geo game existed nor the Luigi's Mansion game...I'll have to visit my local D&B to see if I they have LM available to play. I'd like to recommend a Neo Geo game called Nightmare in the Dark. It's a Halloween themed game that plays very similar to Snow Bros
Hey SnesDrunk, I hope ur doing well. I just want to thank u for ur videos man. Every single Time I load up UA-cam I check for new uploads from ur channel. They just make me so happy, and more often then not, I find myself firing up my old consoles.
I wish arcades would make a comeback. The issue now is that game makers prioritize monetization rather than fun. Took my kids to a local arcade and all the old stuff was gone. Replaced with claw machines and ticket based games that are mobile ports into arcade cabinets. It is sad. I’d love to play some light gun stuff again!
I played Beast Busters: Second Nightmare to death back in the day so I'm glad to see it on this list! It's one of those games that really makes me miss arcades
Cool list. I'd always love running into the Space Gun arcade cabinet as a kid. It looked different from anything else with the plastic moulding. Have you heard of a Neo Geo game called Nightmare In The Dark? Really charming Buster Bros/Bubble Bobble Clone with a horror theme.
You know, after all this time I just feel the urge to say: Thank you for uploading all these amazing and really interesting videos for us and I hope you have a great rest of your day too, dear SNES Drunk!
I saw an actual cabinet for Beastbusters 2 at an arcade back when I was a kid. I still regret not playing it back then, and it was the only time I ever saw a Hyper NeoGeo 64 cabinet in person
Space Gun was released on various systems starting with the PS2, and Taito Arcade packs. Dark Escape 4D, is hard as hell but intrigues me. I played it all night at Dave and Busters a few years back, the cabinet alone left an impression on me. Finally, there are 5 mainline titles in the House of The Dead series. the 5th being Scarlet Dawn which drops the numbering.
I utterly adored the first Beast Busters. Also thanks for digging up my old memory of Space Gun. Im old mixed with less than stellar life choices means ive probably forgotten more than most will ever know... It has me sad though. I wish their were more ways to bring forgotten games back and accessible. So many games. Heck even on the Wii. Fragile Dreams, Pandoras Tower, Last Story. Just boggles my mind. Rule of Rose, Bloody Roar, Haunting Grounds and so on. Could keep going on but im sure the gist is gisted. Id love to play a lot of these games but sadly im not a smart man. Technology scares me. Unless you need help changing the clock on your VCR or betamax. Anywho oldmanrambleending thanks for the content over all the years.
I still remember playing it on the giant 3-player cabinet with the massive viewfinder guns. You could always tell if an arcade had it based on the recognizable laser blasting sound.
Laser Ghost is a pretty good arcade horror shooter too. A neat gimmick with the arcade version was the gun controllers had a viewport which allowed you to see the projectiles; almost like a hud. Viewers passing by could not see the projectiles. Like I said, a neat gimmick.
4yo me avoided any area of the arcade that had Sinistar. The voice creeped me out. I love that you have the game name shown the whole time. Too many other channels I have to rewind to figure out what they said the game being discussed was.
I actually played an Evil Night cabinet back in the day. The SFX weren't working but the music did and it's seriously one of the coolest arcade soundtracks of its time courtesy of none other than Masayoshi Soken.
I was 9 or 10 when I first saw Night Slashers and holy shit it blew me away! Being a big fan of 80s horror and slasher flicks I felt like this game was tailor made for me. Totally underrated gem.
People have already mentioned carnevil, but I want to give a shout-out to Altered Beast. A great horror arcade game. It was ported to a lot of home consoles later, so that might be why it’s not on this list. Thanks for this awesome list!
Nice to see Night Slashers make the list, it's often over looked. It probably had too much gore for Nintendo but would have been a great addition for the Genesis or 32X. Shame it never got a console release.
Theres a Silent Hill arcade cab at Galloping Ghost arcade along with Castlevania Arcade, but the former is rarely working whenever I go to visit, its just the nature of light gun games, they require the most up keep to make sure the guns stay in synch and when you have as many hands touching it as that place does with hundreds of other games in need of attention, you'll rarely find a light gun game 100% ready to go
Having forgotten the name, when I saw the footage of Space Gun, I had a total, "Yeah! I remember playing that one! .....I wasn't very good at it, but I remember liking it." moment. Another light gun arcade game I remember enjoying a lot was,....it was up to 3 players, each one a different color, and the ghosts were like a cartoon-ish art style and holograms. Like, you could only see where they were on the screen by looking through the square glass 'sight' on top of your gun. I remember one level (maybe the first?) was a haunted house type theme.
I've been watching SNES Drunk for years now, and I just want to express how much I appreciate that if there's a convenient/modern/sensible way to obtain these games he supplies as much information as possible to purchase it. And if that isn't possible, you should play the game "any way you can"
Just watched a playthrough of the SH Arcade game. I had no idea that even existed. It takes obvious liberties since it has to, in order to work as a shooter but it was a very good adaption of the SH franchise and has some great easter eggs in it. Really cool.
Space Gun had one of the greatest light guns ever. The weight, the rumble feature, the pump option, all of it. I'd pay a king's ransom for a NERF gun or something that simulated it.
What arcade game that I know you forgot would be Carn-Evil, made by midway. My buddy Rikkaku reminded ne of this one and it's one of those crazy games with an interesting development story to boot. He even has the gun from the arcade cabinet in his house, it's freaking great!
I’ve played all house of dead games including the spin-offs and number 1 is still the best, great boss fights, music, and those older graphics make the zombies that more scarier 👌😎🔥
funny story on Night Slashers, I'd picked up the Switch version and my wife was watching me play... 90% of her gaming is more modern stuff, so imagine my surprise when she told me that she wanted to try it! It's kind of jank, but we had a ton of fun just smashing zombie heads into the pavement and just credit feeding our way through it. jankness aside it's definitely a good candidate for a halloween playlist. we did also play through the HOTD remake, I definitely recommend locating a pistol grip shell, although there aren't really many other games that will use it but it definitely helps the experience in HOTDR!
I wonder what you got planned for tuesday. 🎃👻...oh hell yeah. I'm about to buy that night slashers switch port....to build upon his last choice Beast Busters, check out the NGPC game Dark Arms: Beast Busters 1999. Recently played it on the NGPC collection they have for switch. It's a fun horror theme action RPG
Sinistar is so hilariously terrifying for that style of game. It just catches you off guard.
"BEWARE I LIVE"
Pretty sure Sinistar is the cousin of the Yeti from SkiFree
@TheCrewExpendable 5 year old me FREAKED OUT from that yeti lmao
I played this for the first time lately and it still startled me even when expecting it
Hi
The audio on Beast Busters 2nd Nightmare (in MAME) is still a bit of a problem, but I made some significant improvements to the video emulation in MAME over the last year, so a lot of the priority bugs (life bar going behind the 3D etc.) that are present in the footage here are no longer a problem at least.
Audio is.. difficult. It's basically a decent quality synth/sampler/sequencer (the Akai MPC-3000) transplanted onto an arcade board, rather than one of the more common audio solutions. The audio DSP used is completely undocumented, and quite capable, so reverse engineering it from how the software wants it to behave alone is a real challenge.
thank you for all the work you do.
Huge thanks to you and the other MAME devs who make experiencing these games that never left the arcade possible.
Thanks for your service!
Thank you for your hard work on MAME, the help this has on game preservation cant be understated. As well just purely keeping these titles alive for future generations to experience and enjoy. I still have my ever growing MAME collection from the early 2000s. Arcades are a thing of the past where I live unfortunately so without MAME a lot of these would have been lost to time in my area. Thank you
You're the best!
The way you say awry at 3:15 gave me a chuckle
The way he pronounced “awry” is the real horror here.
I was working on something else, and heard that, and reacted like "the hell you just say?"
He is from minnesota
Lmao what the hell was that?
@@reeyees50do they even pronounce it like that in Minnesota though? 😆
A lot of people know perfectly well how to use words they’ve never heard said aloud.
I rented Williams Arcade Collection for the SNES as a kid and that damn Sinistar scared me as a kid. I was too afraid to pick that game afterward and stuck to Defender and Joust.
Also shoutout to Carnevil, the first arcade game I’ve ever beaten and another horror light gun game worth trying.
I actually got to play Carnevil at an arcade and that's a game I'd recommend any day of the week. Give it a shot. I can't be mad I didn't see it here, lots of people might already know about it thanks to another UA-camr around these parts covering it in full.
I was hoping to see it here too! I haven't played it in probably 20 years but I spent a lot of time with it in my local arcade.
I played enough of Carnevil that I owned most of the high score list at my local arcade. Memories.
I remember playing this one in arcades as well. Fun pump-action light gun game
Im glad i read the comments to see if people remember carnevil
Carn Evil was one of the best 💥🔥
That pulse rifle in Alien 3: The Gun just felt so satisfying to use.
No Carnevil! Such a cool light gun game. It had shotguns you had to pump to reload....awe memories
Night slashers is so friggin awesome.
The whistle from the attract mode of the original Beast Busters is still burned into my head some 30 years later
So happy to see Drunk mentioning Zombie Revenge. It was my favorite game on Dreamcast, especially playing co-op with my older brother. Loved memorable bosses in this game and cheesy voice acting. It was tough as hell though, never got further than train level.
Great recommendations. A little surprised no mention of Carnevil. Thats such a great classic horror shooter.
Speaking of Night Slashers, there's an OpenBOR fan made Streets of Rage game, that uses lots of sprites from Night Slashers, called Zombie Streets of Rage.
It even features various Horror movie characters like Pennywise, Pinhead and the girl from The Ring as bosses.
You can find it pretty easy online and it runs great even on potato computers.

Yeah, this BOR version is incredible... though I'm thinking of Night SlasherZ. Did they get a dcma and have to change the name? Anyway, manual input supers and stage reorganization is solid., and fan characters (though a bit sloppy) like Ash is fun.
Is it on happy chick? Is that still a thing
Really happy to see Sinistar on this list! I recently made a mod for the game that reduces the difficulty by lowering the enemy populations, it's so much more fun to play now. I also found some unused sound effects and made a documentary video about those findings as well.

Aw, no love for Vampire Night? Easily my favorite of the horror mayhem rail shooters. Excited to take a look at some of these I’d never heard of, though.
Vampire Night and Splatterhouse are my go to arcade games i play every October.
Surprised there was no mention of Carn-Evil! Great list lots of games I did not know existed!
Sinistar was the genius of RJ Mical, who also gave us the Atari Lynx. And was one of the fathers of the Amiga as well. Much respect.
“Another game you’ll have to keep your eye out for”
New SNES Drunk euphemism just dropped 🔥
I don’t think euphemism is the word you are looking for there…
He's been saying that for a while now. It just tends to come up more often on his arcade videos, since it's not too difficult to get/set up foreign home console gear these days.
Please shut up
@@JazGalaxy Why not? Seems fine to me. Euphemism doesn't have to be sexual.
@@Bolsty7 Indeed, it's just a substitution term for something else.
I remember playing Zombie Raid at my local ice rink as a kid, and just being enthralled with it as a horror fanatic. And the amount of money I've spent playing House of the Dead and Zombie's Revenge is kind of absurd too. It reminds me that the game I got with my Dreamcast at launch was House of the Dead 2. Played it into the ground too.
Great video, as always! Wanted to let you know that awry is pronounced uh-RYE. Happy Halloween!
The bullet counter in Zombie Raid looks super cool with how they animated the shell casings flying around.
Good list! I'm sure there are a ton more arcade horror games on top of this! The arcade always had a good helping of wild, gory, and freaky games! It is a shame some of these never got ported to home consoles.
That Sinistar one is amazing! That one would have scared the heck out of me as a kid as it just seems to come out of nowhere! 😅
Love that you included Sinistar. terrifying voice!
I used to play Chiller back in elementary school. I miss the arcade cabinets at Jerry’s subs and pizza
Wow. What a great compilation!! Thanks drunk
Nightmare in the Dark is another horror-themed gem.
shout out to Chiller, a light gun game that got ported to NES. Just mindless spooky violence
I'm so glad that The House of The Dead and Zombie Revenge made this list. Truly are a man of culture, SNESdrunk!
Man that sinistar audio is amazing really takes me back to the classic era. Reminds me of altered beast and the genesis
Total length of video: 690 secs.
Total length of "SNES Drunk": 3 secs.
.43% of the video was spent listening to "SNES Drunk".
Zombie Revenge is great! Love to see someone shine a light on that gem
Alien 3 had such a physical presence in the arcades back in the day. So cool. Never got to play it enough. It was always one of the more expensive machines.
Sinistar scared the poop out of me as a kid lol. Great video as always!
Splatterhouse and Night Slasher is the best made arcade horror games ever. It’s bloody and fun to bash some monster heads with your bare fists.
Thanks for the great list of games! I had no idea this Neo Geo game existed nor the Luigi's Mansion game...I'll have to visit my local D&B to see if I they have LM available to play. I'd like to recommend a Neo Geo game called Nightmare in the Dark. It's a Halloween themed game that plays very similar to Snow Bros
Good stuff Drunk. Sinistar, House of the Dead and Discs of Tron are my three all-time favorite arcade games
Hey SnesDrunk, I hope ur doing well. I just want to thank u for ur videos man. Every single Time I load up UA-cam I check for new uploads from ur channel. They just make me so happy, and more often then not, I find myself firing up my old consoles.

Replaced with claw machines and ticket based games that are mobile ports into arcade cabinets. It is sad. I’d love to play some light gun stuff again!
Arcade games are the epitome of monetization lol 😆 😂 🤣
5:44 That ammo count effect at the bottom corner of Zombie Raid has no right to be as slick and deliciously animated the way it is.
I played Beast Busters: Second Nightmare to death back in the day so I'm glad to see it on this list! It's one of those games that really makes me miss arcades
I remember playing Sinistar on the Sega Genesis as a classic of games including Joust, I don't have it anymore and absolutely miss it.
Cool list. I'd always love running into the Space Gun arcade cabinet as a kid. It looked different from anything else with the plastic moulding. Have you heard of a Neo Geo game called Nightmare In The Dark? Really charming Buster Bros/Bubble Bobble Clone with a horror theme.
CarnEvil was a fun one too ❤
Yes!
I second this 🔥
Exactly what I was looking for in Halloween month, thanks!
Zombie Revenge is one of my favorite arcade games, as well as my favorite Dreamcast games.
Happy rest of October, SpookDrunk! I'm amazed on how many arcades games I've been missing out, thanks! 👾
Nintendo is really missing a golden opportunity with Luigi's Mansion. Especially with the Switch. But it's probably because of a contract deal.
You know, after all this time I just feel the urge to say:
Thank you for uploading all these amazing and really interesting videos for us and I hope you have a great rest of your day too, dear SNES Drunk!
There's so many arcade lightgun games out there that its shocking how much I have never seen aside from HoD, Time crisis, etc.
8:00 in, light gun games are still kicking ass in arcades! I played a Transformers one a couple of years ago that was super exhilarating!
Laser Ghost was my fave, the cabinet was massive and the pixel art was awesome
I saw an actual cabinet for Beastbusters 2 at an arcade back when I was a kid. I still regret not playing it back then, and it was the only time I ever saw a Hyper NeoGeo 64 cabinet in person
Space Gun was released on various systems starting with the PS2, and Taito Arcade packs.
Dark Escape 4D, is hard as hell but intrigues me. I played it all night at Dave and Busters a few years back, the cabinet alone left an impression on me.
Finally, there are 5 mainline titles in the House of The Dead series. the 5th being Scarlet Dawn which drops the numbering.
I utterly adored the first Beast Busters.
Also thanks for digging up my old memory of Space Gun.
Im old mixed with less than stellar life choices means ive probably forgotten more than most will ever know...
It has me sad though. I wish their were more ways to bring forgotten games back and accessible.
So many games. Heck even on the Wii. Fragile Dreams, Pandoras Tower, Last Story.
Just boggles my mind.
Rule of Rose, Bloody Roar, Haunting Grounds and so on. Could keep going on but im sure the gist is gisted.
Id love to play a lot of these games but sadly im not a smart man. Technology scares me.
Unless you need help changing the clock on your VCR or betamax.
Anywho oldmanrambleending thanks for the content over all the years.
My brother and I played Laser Ghost in the arcades. It's a horror themed light gun arcade game.
I still remember playing it on the giant 3-player cabinet with the massive viewfinder guns. You could always tell if an arcade had it based on the recognizable laser blasting sound.
Laser Ghost is a pretty good arcade horror shooter too. A neat gimmick with the arcade version was the gun controllers had a viewport which allowed you to see the projectiles; almost like a hud. Viewers passing by could not see the projectiles. Like I said, a neat gimmick.
No love for CarnEvil?? The intro video from that light gun classic STILL haunts my dreams to this day!
4yo me avoided any area of the arcade that had Sinistar. The voice creeped me out.
I love that you have the game name shown the whole time. Too many other channels I have to rewind to figure out what they said the game being discussed was.
Hey, thank you so much for the flashing light warning. You've probably saved at least a few of your viewers a lot of unnecessary pain.
I actually played an Evil Night cabinet back in the day. The SFX weren't working but the music did and it's seriously one of the coolest arcade soundtracks of its time courtesy of none other than Masayoshi Soken.
Oh man, I loved that game. Sucks it never got a port or properly emulated.
I was 9 or 10 when I first saw Night Slashers and holy shit it blew me away! Being a big fan of 80s horror and slasher flicks I felt like this game was tailor made for me. Totally underrated gem.
Sinistar rules so much. Never played in the arcade but I played on Playstation. The roar from that thing gave me a scare at the age of 11. So good
I’m surprised you didn’t mention Carnevil. I use to love that game in the arcade.
People have already mentioned carnevil, but I want to give a shout-out to Altered Beast. A great horror arcade game. It was ported to a lot of home consoles later, so that might be why it’s not on this list.
Thanks for this awesome list!
It’s amazing the ones in the 80s and early 90s were even made. Good time to grow up
Splatterhouse, right off the jump, perfect.
Nice to see Night Slashers make the list, it's often over looked. It probably had too much gore for Nintendo but would have been a great addition for the Genesis or 32X. Shame it never got a console release.
Nice list man!

Heck yes! "I AM SINISTAR" still brings me terror and gets my heart racing
Space Gun had one of the greatest light guns ever. The weight, the rumble feature, the pump option, all of it. I'd pay a king's ransom for a NERF gun or something that simulated it.
Played Sinistar as a kid on SNES and it legitimately scared the crap outta me back then lol

Fun vid. Happy Halloween, Drunk!!
Laser Ghost from Sega! Such a fun arcade game with the “laser” guns
I'm probably showing my age... but the games the scared me as a kid (certainly Sinistar) was Chiller and Crossbow.
Thumbs up for Space Gun. Love that game, and the best Aliens game made.
I never see anyone ever mention CarnEvil Arcade. The best horror shooting game I ever played in the arcades
I love the little noodle beam you have in The Real Ghostbusters.
I wonder what you got planned for tuesday. 🎃👻...oh hell yeah. I'm about to buy that night slashers switch port....to build upon his last choice Beast Busters, check out the NGPC game Dark Arms: Beast Busters 1999. Recently played it on the NGPC collection they have for switch. It's a fun horror theme action RPG
Evil Night!!!! Loved that one in the arcade.
That was a very spooky open for your show!
Great video as always
I like to think you save the most harmonious intros for the videos you think are going to do well ahead of time.
Always nice to see the Hyper Neogeo 64 get a little love.
A lot of these can be played on pc with a sinden light gun or gun4ir. They're expensive but it's nice to bring the light gun experience home in 2023.
