I had no idea what a big game this was to SNK and NGPC fans. After watching some game play, I almost completely skipped over this title. I happen to bring it up to a Neo fan and I might as well have asked if he'd ever heard of Mario. After that reaction, I've changed my mind and will be trying this out.

Anyone else heard of this game, I can't be the only person with my head in the sand!

Here's hoping its good

Looks like this weekend there's a SNK Publisher Sale on Steam. 25 to 75% off any of those SNK games you may have missed.

the neo geo bundle takes another 35% off and gives you metal slug 1-3, shock troopers, twinkle star sprites, and baseball stars 2 all for just under $15.00


neo geo pocket color vol 1. is 25% off at $30
Samurai Showdown Neo Geo collection is 75% off at $10

most of the individual games are 3 to $5.00

Sam Show reboot still expensive 

Once upon a time Sony made nice tvs that held up... My CRTs are all dead and gone. I don't miss the hernia or real estate they took up, it just would be nice to play some light gun games.

I've already ordered it. I loved The first three, never played the days of ruin but the first three were fantastic. Batallion wars was awesome too. Seems like this one will take a while, PR and war in Ukraine seem to be holding it back

With the rumors Shredders Revenge is releasing June 16th wouldn't it seem more likely this game gets released much later

There's so many cool lego sets out, but a transforming optimus prime tops it for me

got the walmart exclusive version. Not a steelbook tho

I almost didn't keep up with it, the first episode took its sweet time building up to the action. I like it now that i've seen the third episode.

wii sports will be here soon, multiplayer will be interesting. Still lots of life left in mario party as well as a ton of mario kart tracks that have thus far gone undownloaded. I'm probably picking my switch back up soon

watch - all the trophies and achievements work around NOT using the rewind function!

best buy says coming soon. I saw it once, clicked on it, and got an out of stock notice. Halo Xbox all over again

@BLUEVOODU "human meats"

I went ahead and preordered. Best Buy says Dec 31st, Please tell me that's a place holder date and it'll be out quicker!

I'm still trying to order the steelbook and have yet to find it available for preorder.

yay! another $200 drop and i can afford one!

I tripped over some LP youtube video of this game and in 15 seconds had to go buy it. LRG show sold out so I went the steam route.

This game takes the best of Castlevania 2 and Zelda 2 and leaves all the garbage.

Image how awesome Castlevania 2 would be with a mini map, quest log, and decent direction (clues, hints, dialogue that made sense). There was no way I would have beat Simon's Quest without Nintendo Power, solely because of the awful translation and worthless clues. Infernax fixed that. Infernax doesn't slow pitch the clues BUT they do make sense. Some you're bound to miss but when you figure it out (or google it), you're going to feel stupid.

I have yet to find anything I don't like about this game. Any castlevania 2 or zelda 2 fan will dig it. Any platformer fan that's good with gore will dig it. Metal fans will get a kick out of the achievements (so far everyone I've got has been a metal song).

It's great, check it out, you'll thank me.

underwater stages are the worst

Ebay kits are USUALLY pretty well researched and there's so many people doing it the cost isn't bad at all. I've got some a kit or two stashed away, nothing turbo express though

I picked up one in the early 0's and just couldn't find stuff i liked to play. I'm sure if i had one when they were out and relevant there'd be a little more nostalgia behind it.

If I found one out in the wild I'd probably pick it up and go straight to retro to figure out what to buy for it!

The white looks pretty sweet sitting next to the white real-estate hogging ps5, but alas, I've yet to play anything on it. I've got a decent sized switch collection at this point, and several more coming. If anything gets me finally playing again it'll be when Advance Wars comes out.

I blazed through Yellowstone and immediately started (and just finished) 1883. Reacher with Thad from Blue Mountain State (best raunchy comedy since Van Wilder) was pretty good too. For a blast from the past I've started watching Clone High on Paramount + and Exo Squad on peacock. I'm slowly going through Star Trek Discovery in anticipation of Picard. Theres tons of others that have piqued my attention but work has been brutal. I've had enough time to ignore my kids, eat and sleep, so most of what I watch happens between that time i hit the bed and fall asleep.

@retro junkie - agreed, I started my Marvel fandom in the late 80s. I did go back and read / collect a lot of the 60s and 70s comics but it was from books that were popular in the 80s and 90s. I know more about the character that got introduced / teased in the end because of their appearance in the popular books of my time.

Sounds about right, Mine started with the family getting covid!

MCU writing off the Netflix series really sucks, Punisher and Daredevil was awesome.

I'm caught up. My teenage daughter has me callous to the teenie drama so I don't even notice it! Good retro itch scratcher.

It doesn't seems like Cobra Kai has pulled anyone from the Next Karate Kid movie yet and despite it being the wrost, I'd love to see them work in Hillary Swank and Walton Goggins

With the superhero attrition going on (downey, johansson, evans, et. al.), I think these D+ series are being used to introduce and/or flesh out new characters more than progress the storyline. Most of them seem like filler, all be it good filler. Same with Star Wars.

I also feel like your casual MCU viewer may not geek out on every character spin off imaginable so unveiling major events in a d+ series might turn some away. Instead keep pushing out bangers for the silver screen all the while converting some of those casual viewers into full blown geeks, who in turn subscribe to d+.

Happy New Year everybody!

Sweet, I can't wait to see what you do

Lol... My Christmas bonus was 50% more than in 2019 (owner felt bad for nixing incentives, bonuses, etc. in 2020) so I shared with the family...

Collectively we got, 2 ps5s, 1 series x, 1 series s, an oled switch, and a ton of games. I was worried i'd not get a chance to play any of it BUT I passed my Corona test and have to sit the next week or so out!

Sorry I'm late, hope it was great!
