  • Rolling Thunder 2 (ローリングサンダー2 Rōringu Sandā Tsū) is a run and gun arcade game developed and released by Namco for the Namco System 2 hardware in 1990. The game is the sequel to 1986's Rolling Thunder, retaining the same gameplay of its predecessor but adding cooperative gameplay for two players and improved graphics.
    Unlike the original, which was based in 1968, Rolling Thunder 2 features a more contemporary setting to go along with its more futuristic design, as well as an optionally playable female character. A port for the Mega Drive/Genesis was released in 1991. Both the Mega Drive port and the original arcade game were released for the Wii Virtual Console on December 4, 2007 and October 27, 2009 respectively.
    This is an emulated arcade version using M.A.M.E.
    Captured and played at 60fps.
    Infinite bullet cheat used on last level.
    Used in this longplay:
    PC hardware - AMD gpu
    Emulator - Mame
    Controller - 10 button custom made arcade joystick
    Joystick: Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT
    Buttons: OBSF-30 with 2 microswitches
    Keep it real, keep it retro!!!!

    Gotta love the video-game logic here (and in the first game) - your character can leap up a story to a platform above them, but somehow can't jump over a stack of two boxes in front of them, lol.

    I'd like to longplay review this game, but on my SNES Classic I can't get the cheats going and it will reset you like a console game. Fairly uncommon for an arcade shooter to not let you press on with another credit.

    • @RedSevenNineR7
      @RedSevenNineR7  7 років тому +1

      Yeah the game is hard enough on arcade let alone limited credits in the console port. They sure were brutal on the kids back then but it made us what we are. Not sure what 'SNES classic' is but you can use savestates on emulators such as zsnes.

    • @JudgmentStorm
      @JudgmentStorm 6 років тому +1

      I'll say the arcade's final boss is surely easier. On the Genesis version, the final boss' pattern is totally different- it's not all about just spamming out 30 bullets for the win. Actually a challenge there.

    • @quackstack4246
      @quackstack4246 6 років тому

      @@JudgmentStorm Nah dude the thing is that it's super easy if you've got the ammo to spare, hellishly difficult if you don't. Keeping enough ammo for the boss is really hard and requires you to plan out every action throughout the level, often running and hiding from enemies instead of killing them just to save some ammo. Megadrive version lacks this hardcore fun ammo management though.

    • @RedSevenNineR7
      @RedSevenNineR7  8 років тому +2

      Depending upon your mame version you can go into the main menu (tab-key) during a game, select cheat menu and configure to your desire. Make sure you have enabled the cheat menu through your mame.ini. If cheats are still not available after doing this you may need some additional file(s) in your mame directory which enable cheats which you can google. hope this helps

      I know, my point is that you cheated the last level putting infinite bullets. Very disappointing

    • @RedSevenNineR7
      @RedSevenNineR7  8 років тому +2

      Then you should have said that to begin with instead of saying 'how to cheat' which makes no sense. 'Very disappointing'? Personally I loathe using cheats and never use them in my private gaming. But many arcade games are extremely difficult to complete and a cheat is used only to present the entire playthrough for the viewer. Also I'm not going to waste my time doing a hundred takes/runs to make a unnatural 1cc perfect longplay (like other channels).

    • @Heatkun8000
      @Heatkun8000 8 років тому +1
