Great review and great cart :-) Keep up the awesome work!
@@jayme69, Thank you my friend!
Fun you said HARD AS NAILS. Toplan knew what was good out there & they made it extra hard on purpose, so you would be forced to put in more quarters! Arcade Gamers quietly hated them, but couldn't say it out loud as they were in every Arcade Room back in the day! Because the people running the Arcades loved these machines as it made money for them! So there would be multiple Toplan Arcades back in the day! This is a must have EverCade for me as i grew up at an Arcade. But now i don't need quarters!
@@erneststackhouse1133 , Exactly my friend! Definitely a quarter muncher lol. I lived in the Arcades in my area in my early teens. These games pissed me off, yet I still loved them enough to keep coughing up quarters 😂
It’s a great cart! And….no quarters needed👍😂
The cart is an "S" for me. Twin Hawk my fav and here's a couple if tips. Call your buddies up straight away as soon as you start and keep moving slightly left/right by a few pixels on the stick in the position you wish to fly at to get a wider spred with the bullets. Don't forget the bonus VS game Sega Genesis/Megadrive Twin Hawk, more forgiving and makes good practice. Seeing how far you can get on one credit is always fun. 😉
Wardner was also released on Sega Genesis, was never released in Europe but is region free as I have it here in the UK. Not cheap any more so an Everdrive might be a better option...
Good review though Game Freak, I think some of the games are so strong that it's easy to ignore the weaker games so I fully understand your "A" grade. 👍
@@MIK_F40, thanks brother! Yeah, that’s exactly how I feel. The stronger games on the cart made me forget the weaker ones.
oh yes, the infamous auto scroll Mario levels. They definitely got the heart pumping a little extra fast and if you were playing the game with friends you were always hoping it would be their turn to beat those levels.
I enjoy all the Toaplan arcade games but I think I prefer their ports in almost every case. Fire Shark, Truxton, Zero Wing, Hellfire, pretty much every one from Toaplan 1 and 2 I prefer their Genesis version and going past that I'm probably neutral on Grind Stormer and have only played the arcade version of Batsugun (and can't imagine the Saturn version was any better). The Genesis ports of the earlier games seemed to be more user friendly in my opinion.
@@francescosmith7859, the Genesis ports were amazing!
I would prefer seeing the current gen stuff branded as "Tatsujin" (the current name of the company) rather than "Toaplan". It makes a better logo, T-shirt, poster, etc.
Another pass for me. Trite and dirivitive.
Extremely edgy opinion: reviewers like yourself overlook the extent to which most of these games (most, not all) really are designed for two player co-op -and they don't work well solo. Hellfire is not a one player game.
@@VEGANVANIA, no doubt a few are intended for two players. The problem I run into is, I live in the middle of nowhere. My nearest neighbor is about 3 miles away….and they’re Amish lol. I moved away from my hometown which is about an hour drive. I love having the privacy where I’m at now, but it also takes away any chances of two players on any game I own pretty slim lol
