    I played this as Cybernator on the Wii VC. It was hard!

    Coolest 2D Mech game I know! Bought it in 1994 and it still holds up to this day! I also got Assault Suit Leynos (kind of a remake) and never really got into it even if the gameplay is faster and the graphics "nicer". Assault Suit Valken, you can feel the weight of the mech when you jump and hover with the thruster pack. The key to success is to learn when to use the shield and be careful when advancing forward. Don't go too fast. Move, stop, block, aim and shoot while always blocking incoming bullets. Stay in position, clear the enemies and advance afterwards. It's a game that rewards careful players. Look absolutely everywhere in the early levels to boost the vulcan canon to LV3 ASAP, focus on the missile launcher right after that. There's a unique mood and melancholy to the audio and the animations. Take time to let the intro play before going through it. I highly recommend this awesome SNES classic!! Great nostalgic blast! I hope Metal Warriors will come out too. It's not as "serious", but it's in the same vein and has different gameplay mechanics. Both worthy titles!

    This game is fantastic, definitely going to pick up the new release.

    This looks freaking great, thanks for getting the game some recognition, I’d never heard of it!
    That music at 00:54 reminds me so much of Brainlord and a bunch of other enix games from the 90s.

    I adored the original western release of Cybernator, still have my SNES cart. I never knew until much later that it was modified from the Japanese release. Even more to love now, I'm hoping this will get a physical cartridge release.

    Ah! I've been waiting for the day I can get to play the uncensored and translated original Japanese version of this game. Looks to be a lot better than the edited/censored version we got as "Cybernator", which I still have a copy of. It was good, but I don't understand why the character portraits were removed during the dialogues between the characters so we could see what they looked like.

    Good Review! I remember this as Cybernator on snes. This character is also in Senko no Ronde 2 Duo on steam and ps. The character is getting some well deserved respect🤝

  • @TheContraspirit

    It would've been nice to mention that the original western release by Konami was called Cybernator. Still, solid review.

  • @TheDutchGhost
    @TheDutchGhost Рік тому +1

    Nice that the Napalm gun can be unlocked from the start but it is a bit of a cheat weapon.
    What we need now is a translated version, preferably with an easy mode, for Assault Suit Leynos 2 as the original Assault Suit Leynos already has a remake.

  • @Bangcat
    @Bangcat Рік тому +1

    Now let this be a prelude along with the return of Front Mission and Armored Core.
    Can you smell it? That's the return of mechs to gaming lads and ladies. Gear up and let's see some mech games that also have odd jobs like Steam Bot Chronicle did..
    Now if my arms and hands will hopefully do better enough I'll be able to return to playing more too.

    Trivia: This game's illustrations and concept art are by Langrisser and Growlanser artist Satoshi Urushihara.
    I didn't even know Assault Suit Valken was a game, heh...

      Funny that I knew about Urushihara when I saw this anime called "Plastic Little", yet I was surprised when I saw his name on the ending credits. I had no idea.

    To be honest, I suck at shooters, but I would say this game difficulty is everything but very hard. On the original SNES cartridge I always managed to arrive to the final boss or at least to the final level without bigger problems. If you compare this with most memorable shooters from the 16 bit era like, for example, Thunder Force IV or Ranger X, Cybernator by comparison is easy. This without even mentioning games like Musha, way harder than this. Maybe you still have to learn how to properly use the shiled in this game? It is essential.

      No physical edition has been announced. Since Rainmaker Productions is a small and new Japanese company, we have no precedent to see if they will try to find a boutique/limited physical publisher at a later date. For now, this release is digital-only.
