Battle of the Ports

[Nu-Eclipse]

Possibly the very first arcade game to ever have a celebrity endorsement. this is Teddy Boy Blues.

No. It isn't.

Midway's Journey coin-op precedes Teddy Boy Blues by two whole years!

[Yakumo]

True. I had forgotten about that.

What happens when Sega obtains a license but have no game? Dynamite Deka is what.

[DeathAdder]

Brilliant. Love this game, and the sequel.

Brilliant. Love this game, and the sequel.

Me too!! I play through the squeal every few months, shame it's over so quickly. Love the wacky stuff you can pick up and use as weapons!

[Asura]

this is Teddy Boy Blues

The Mega-CD version of that, with its CD music, is such a 90s thing. It's hard to believe now that anyone could've considered that to be an improvement.

I'm not one of those people who is always against updated/arranged soundtracks, but in a game of that nature, it just feels really odd!

A classic with a surprising amount of good ports. This week we look at Pang! on Battle of the Ports.
Note that the SFC / SNES version is Super Pang!, Not regular Pang! so it's not featured on this video.

One of the very few wrestling games I actually like on this week's battle of the Ports. It's Capcom's Muscle Bomber.

Sega were always a company for coming up with crazy ideas. Baku Baku Animal is just one of them. This week on Battle Of The Ports.

[DeathAdder]

Never heard of it. Will have a watch

Love this! Was a huge favourite of mine in the Saturn era, got me an imported version and played it to death. Simple and fun. Never saw it in an Arcade, but given the Saturn hardware it must be a pretty much spot on conversion.

The Saturn port is better than the Arcade due to the little extras when it comes to play modes, Intro and ending and better audio quality. Graphically it's identical to the Arcade.

Another Atari classic on this Weeks's Battle of the Ports.

[DeathAdder]

I have the Lynx version of this, but I rarely play it because I'm even crapper than Yakumo at this game.

[Gradius]

Atari certainly had a pretty unique style to their arcade games in the eighties. 720, Toobin, Paperboy...
