The intro is lame >_>

I got passed the first Galaga-rip-off level and the Ninja thing, and I must say it's fun so far. Never heard of the games I'm playing in it, but they're enjoyable.

This kinda makes me want to go grab a NES and start beating some more retro stuff.

Hey how do you do a boost start on rally king sp? because for mission 3 of sp thats the challenge but i can't find instructions on how!?

Also seen on a few threads saying the rom is only 16mbs untrimmed but my rom is 30.01mbs trimmed, So whats the official size of the rom 16 or 32mbs? my guess 32mbs as its the size i have after trimmed.

On page 8 of issue 4 '86. Press A between 3 and 2 during the countdown. I usually just did it right before it turned 2 and it worked for me. For some reason, too much before that...it didn't work...even though it was still between 3 and 2.

Long time lurker, but just had to throw my two cents in...

This game is tits, pure and simple. I'm actually going to buy it to support the cause so we can see volume 2 come state-side as well (and help put XSeed's children into college

Thank you, easy when you know how lol .

Well looks like it could be the end of my play with this game! reached Guadia Quest.

I hate these sorts of games mostly and don't see it fun having to roam around doing half the game in challenge mode to only have to start from scratch on the full game...

Since Galaga is one of my all-time favorite games, Cosmic Gate is fun. But I got to Haggleman and I really don't like that game. Though to be honest, I've been spending much more time playing with our new PC and putting games in that.

I think Haggleman is based on Door Door which was never released outside Japan, so it might fall a bit flat on Western audiences in terms of drumming up nostalgia.

The games never really existed in the 80s, they've been made especially for this game. They're certainly inspired by some of the games of the era though.

Agreed 100% JohnnyCheeks. I was actually pretty surprised that they had it in my local Gamestop yesterday. Clerk had no idea what it was.

Basically agree with what everyone else has been saying. If you have any nostalgia for the NES / 80's arcade era, definitely pick this up. The challenge format is fun as hell, and the game is really entertaining.
