Welcome!
My channel was made to review, rank, and celebrate all things arcade and all the amazing games that have filled them over the past 40-years! While my love of gaming extends far beyond what's been seen in arcades, I'll be looking at genres like fighting games, shooters (SHMUPS), pinball, racing games, lightgun games, rail shooters, puzzle games, beat em' ups, and many other genres that have called arcades home. In addition to arcade exclusive titles, I'll also look at home consoles releases of games belonging to these genres as well. Pretty much if it's something you'd expect to see in an arcade, expect me to review or rank it at some point. I'm also in the process of creating different types of content related to arcades, so stay tuned for that!
But thanks for watching, and feel free to like and subscribe if you enjoy my videos.

มุมมอง 1.4K2 ปีที่แล้ว
This time I take a look at the illusive Sega CD's library of games and review the holy grail shoot em' up Keio Flying Squadron.

2021 Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown and Gameroom Expo

The Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown and Gameroom Expo took place between October 22nd and the 24th and featured a ton of pinball and arcade machines! I spent all three days of the expo playing pinball until I went cross eyed, but I thought it would be cool to show the event off on my channel, sin...

Night Slashers Review: The 80s Horror Movie Beat'em Up

Discussing some beat'em ups on my channel is long overdue and I can't think of a better first beat'em up review than Night Slashers! Night Slashers is an ultra violent, ultra gory arcade beat'em up from the early 90s that perfectly captures the look and feel of many 1980s horror films. Unfortunately Night Slashers has become pretty obscure since its arcade initial release. I'm here to resurrect...

Batsugun is fucking amazing
KoF 99 Evolution is also avaiable on PS2 NEST Saga Collection!
Cute I saw the Japanese version but not sure if it’s playable 😊 so I’m here to check it out 😊
This review felt so conflicted lol
LOL! This clown actually thinks the Saturn shmups can compare with either PC or PS4 in terms of quality! 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Not mentioning R-type Delta is crazy to me
I remember playing it when I was a kid. Even then the controls were horrible. must have tossed it away a couple of years ago while cleaning out my parent's place. God dam can't imaging people would spend 300USD on this
Collectorism and nostalgia is a hell of a drug
@@wigglesarcade8261 jup sure seems like it. Btw the game does have a certain charm from what I remember. But controls were comically bad
Awesome
Great video! Well spoken.
To me the best samurai shodown games are... 4 1 2 3 Special
Theres no way you put Aquas above Venom 2
Truly underrated game, samurai shodown def needs more love! <3
But number 1 totally needed to go to Panzer Dragoon Mini on the Game Gear!
You missed a game. Don't worry, though. It's only the best one in the series. It's called Raiden Fighters: Jet 2000. It improves upon literally EVERYTHING Raiden Fighters: Jet has to offer. Enjoy.
It's the number 1 game bozo
@@wigglesarcade8261 No, it isn't. You put Raiden Fighters: Jet in that spot, not Jet 2000. Have you played it? It's basically an upgraded version of the game as Raiden DX is to Raiden 2.
WOT? no R type Delta? Granted Robotron X may not be seen as a schmup but that game is addictive and best played at night, along with DOOM.
Amazing compilation but why not include Macross Super Dimension Fortress - incredible game
My List. S: 2k2UM A: 98UM, 11, 13 B: 97, 98V, 2K, 2K2V, 15 C: 95, 96, 99, 2K1, 2K3, 14, MI2 D: 94, 12, Neowave, MI1
Why do the new protagonists in kof xv look so stupid 😂. Also Kof xi is a classic (fuk magaki), love it's great roster.
Can't argue with the top 2, but Guns 'n Roses is better than the rest of this list. And personally, I would've included Time Machine and Bullwinkle over tables like Hook and Robocop.
Wasn’t
I’m curious why Philosoma didn’t make the cut…
Thanks. Gives me a good idea of the differences in the series. Nice soundtracks!
Only one i dont have is Kof 11 because its not available on any modern console
had to sip your intro, that KOF98 loop was driving me mad
Ha! Did the same. No offense Wiggles, we love your list!
Great video, sir.
Great little of SHMUPS! But damn, getting depressed of the voice over😂
just found this game in the steam dreamcast collection, i need to play this now!
Listenning to a man that have the same affectation as a californian adolescent girl is disturbing. I'd like to refer you to Loudermilk coffee shop scene.
That's my other side thing.
I think I still have a copy of this somewhere. Thought of it randomly today for the first time in 20 years

omg miss R-Type Delta
Data East,the best sound ever
Former Williams composer Brian Schmidt (Black Knight 2000, Banzai Run, Swords of Fury) did the music for the majority of the games shown in this video; he didn’t do Robocop or Phantom. Schmidt invented the BSMT 2000 (Brian Schmidt’s Mouse Trap) sound chip that’s used in the majority of DE/Sega’s pinball games.
babbling for 3:30 mins before the actual content starts
i hate the way this motherfucker talks
What simulator is used in this video?
I can see why you'd put Double X on the first spot. But there's one reason that brings it down for me: There's only the free play mode (atleast I couldn't find a way to enable the more traditional credit system), which tbh kinda sucks. What's the point if the game doesn't slap me in the face and tell me to start over once i've died more than I thought possible? There's no stakes when a text saying "credit(s) 2" isn't haunting in the corner for the entire run! I can ofcource restrict myself with my own rules, like not pushing continue after a certain amount of deaths. It works, but it feels off when I'm the one willingly going to the game over screen and not the game just putting me there by force. For that reason and because I like crabs, Metal Slug 3 is my favorite of the franchise. XX is still awesome though!
I miss this place. Such good memories here. I was hoping to bring my kids here but they'll never get to go :'( I'll never forget the vibration from the first time my vest sensor got hit with a laser. It was so exciting.
First off, enjoy your vids quite a bit, exactly the genres and systems i like seems to be covered a lot with humor and fast/good editing so whats not to love? Tried out Viper phase one yesterday and i guess i went in with 'Raiden in space' but hmmm the gameplay does deviate a bit mostly based on the weapon types (which you did mention) i am curious though what the link is? This the first time i heard it mentioned as Raiden spin off? Do agree it looks very nice indeed and will def play it more.
It definitely feels and looks like a classic Raiden game to me, and it was also created by the same dev team. I'm assuming the programming underneath the space theme and gameplay is probably the same or very similar to Raiden II also. On top of that, it's pretty universally considered part of the Raiden franchise despite lacking the name in its title.
Gurentai, Dodonpachi, Thunder Force V, and Raystorm are top class timeless classics.
Yeah I wanna play this game now I would have loved it as a kid.
No one gonna talk about the huge ball sack in the 2nd game?
Wow, first time I ever rewound a intro, that music mixed with the imagery was sick! Awesome into I had to watch it a few times
Wiggles!
You are back when world needs you
WIGGLES IS BACK
Thanks for driving up the price of Raiden Fighters Aces…but seriously, wasn’t aware of this game, awesome video as always
I wish my channel was popular enough to sway game prices lol.
You're lucky you got the Fighters collection on the 360 in the US, wish it had come to UK/Europe. Love Viper Phase 1 though, agree with your placement. Would be fantastic if M2 produced a port of VP1 and the Raiden Fighters games for modern consoles!
Cool video 🙂I've recently been dipping my toes into the shmup genre on my Saturn and def prefer vertical ones - temped to try that collection on 360, I didnt know that existed but have heard from a variety of places the 360 is an unexpecting treasure trove of shmup games
A friend of mine had Raiden Fighters at his studio for a while. I was scared to turn it on incase I got electrocuted, but I wish I played it more. It was balls hard, though! Another great video, Wiggles
