This is a really badass game. This and the cartoon should have been HUGE back then. Glad to see someone play this game. Old shooting games like this should make a comeback.
Yeah, people should have had a better appreciation for western genre for the longest time just like other genres. Hopefully Red Dead Redemption is helping to spark that love for western genre again.
Theyre no longer a game company. They decided to go with the pachinko gambling market. (wich is huge in Japan) You'll probably be happy to hear that the gambling market took a nosedive due to covid while the gaming market skyrocketed. So maybe konami regrets their business decision.
"Comet raised a mesa to the Western skies With the sound of a thousand cattle drives..." Since I've got no comments on gameplay, I might as well show what little I know of the series itself since your description says you're unfamiliar with it: You actually picked a minor character to play as. Marshall Moo Montana, Cowlorado Kid, and Dakota Dude are the main trio. They added Buffalo Bull to make it an even four players - I find it odd they'd put him in the first player slot rather than 4th. As for more changes, I THINK Moo is the only one of the main trio who normally uses a gun regularly in the cartoon. But then, that's one change that works better for an arcade game anyway. Saddle Sore and Boothill Buzzard? Recurring villains in the show - I'd go so far as to say they're the Rocksteady and Bebop equivalent. Sheriff Terrorbull (the first boss) also shows up a lot in the show, but he's a much larger deal... for a reason that gets obvious if you see the show, but I won't outright say it. I don't know why Boothill Buzzard outright dies in this one as I'm told he survived the entire TV series. Five Card Cud (they call him Five Card Stud here) is a villainous gambler. Only part I know of that episode is that Cowlorado went undercover to get on his riverboat. I don't know who that unnamed spider boss is in the fourth stage sadly. I'm kind of surprised Skull Duggery isn't a level boss. I THINK he shows up in Boothill Buzzard's stage as a miniboss, but it's been a while since I've seen anything related to the show so I could be off. I don't know why the attract mode uses the outro from the show rather than the intro. And that about exhausts what I can tell you of the show.
Which is impressive, so my hat goes off to you. It's interesting this and "Bucky O'Hare" got done by Konami. Did they go on a "Cartoon Spree" to license whatever sold to kids?
@@FrostyTheDragon I remember those and played “X-Men” too. Capcom had the rights to do the fighting game version, “X-Men: Children of the Atom,” which lady for “Marvel Super Heroes,” “X-Men vs. Street Fighter,” “Marvel Vs. Street Fighter,” and “Marvel vs. Capcom.”
It was an art form, especially given the constraints of the hardware of the day. Clearly, the Konami Xexex hardware on which the game is based packed some muscle.
Wow. Everything looks really, really good for '92. The sound design is pretty awesome! I don't recall seeing another game in the genre where you could jump into the background of the stage to elevate your character. It kind of reminds me of some of the levels in Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow Over Mystara, but obviously that game came out much later.
Amigo buenas tardes un favor cual es esa versión del juego donde el escenario final donde esta el jefe final no hay niebla, espero que puedas darme un link de descarga directo para esa versión del juego
I remember watching the cartoon on ABC saturday mornings when I was a child. I remember hearing it had an arcade game a while back and it was supposedly great. Today I finally watch gameplay and I would agree. What the hell has happened to you to fall so far from grace, Konami...
The costs of AAA game development continue to rise higher with each successive console generation. Konami just isn't interested in trying to keep up anymore. It sucks for gamers but, from a business perspective, it makes no sense to invest an obscene amount of money into a business venture that (outside of Metal Gear) has had a low return on investment (ROI) for them. Or even _no_ ROI. Why would you continue down that path when you can just make mobile games for less money and higher ROI? Most of Konami's talent is long gone. The Goemon team is at Good-Feel now and are allegedly making a spiritual successor for Switch. The guys who made Suikoden and Castlevania have all gone independent and now mostly rely on crowdfunding. Hideo Kojima left Konami and now has his own studio. The last time Konami tried to make a console game on its own, we got Contra Rogue Corps. While greed is certainly part of the equation, the main reason is that it just wasn't financially feasible for them to continue sinking money into a costly and highly competitive business where they weren't seeing anything in the way of ROI outside of one big franchise. And even if they wanted to return now, they can't. 98% of their talent is gone and Konami doesn't exactly have the best reputation in terms of employee treatment (e.g. violence, verbal abuse, privacy infringements, etc), so recruiting fresh blood would be an enormous uphill battle.
@@SpearM3064 if they aren't going to try anymore then they shouldn't dmca fan projects that have more effort. But alas, Mammon has taken over Konami's soul...
For the first time since I found out about this game, this would have been for the SNES and Genesis in 1994 if it were ported for home consoles. Maybe licensing was expired sort of how license expired for Batman with Konami.

Beautiful graphics. A well done game. Sunset Riders with cows.
This lol
Cowset Riders. 😂😂😂
Indeed
Cacete Riders

There Should be a Game Cabinet Made for this From Arcade 1up.

I don't know bull about the IP but you can't go wrong with Sunset Riders gameplay.
It's was an 90s cartoon that was popular enough for a arcade game
@@joshuakeely5593 Looks like a SWAT Kats/Bucky O Hare sort of deal. Younger me probably would have liked it.
*KONAMI was king of arcades back then now they stink!* 💡

@Jeff Bezos without the pesos *and go back to Contra and Castlevania and Hideo comes back to make final MGS chapter!* ⭐️

@@theodorehsu5023 Konami did quite a bit of licensed stuff. I did a quick check and I'm seeing X-Men and G.I. Joe on their arcade resume as well.

Ru proud to be gsy cause only a gsy would know that
@@princesssprinklesthecat4192 I am proud to have a been a gamer who knew about it, and played them all. No shame there.
I love those games.
It's like a lost art-form.

Looks fantastic on arcade CRT
what a game! definitly need a remake ! old arcade games are the best !
Alternative Title: Sunset Riders: Bovine Edition
9:51 The Sheeza Butte/Fort stage has _Sid Arachnid,_ one of Bat Blastagun's gang. Don't know why they didn't choose Bat Blastagun himself as a boss.
Wow Need Montana Mesa Arcade Need Take Cowboy Big Tex…
Looks amazing
So it's Cow-ntra?
Ahh the good old days when Konami actually made games.
Such an unrealistic game … it has flying chickens.
I pick the Colorado kid.
Metal Slug Cow version?
Its the closest thing to a Sunset Riders sequel
One of the levels is "Sheeza Butte" and that is beautiful.
I just learned from this playthrough justice shots (disarming goons) is possible and gives 100 points. Huh.
Wow. Everything looks really, really good for '92. The sound design is pretty awesome!

I saw this in an arcade at my favorite mall. It was right next to a Bucky O'Hare machine. I was surprised that either game existed.
Wonderful..thanks

Never heard of this game. Awesome graphics.

Mejor que read dead 2
mad max
Nunca joguei esse jogo mas parece ser uma cópia de Sunset Riders do Super Nintendo!
what a rip off..
I loved this game. it was one of my favorite finds in the arcade in New Brunswick when I visited my cousin in the summer back in the day.
19:55 SOMEBODY
Wow I remember the show knew nothing on this game.
FFS, just like yesterday…❤️
Mighty Max for future longplay?
man he handling dat level action rifle
9:56 does anyone know what this boss' name is?
👾
Yoooo! I forgot about this game!
Best played with friends
It's a shame this game was never ported to a home system, it would be great on the Saturn.
For the first time since I found out about this game, this would have been for the SNES and Genesis in 1994 if it were ported for home consoles. Maybe licensing was expired sort of how license expired for Batman with Konami.
Nice gameplay Bro.
Where i can get this game?
This looks fun.
The code of the west
Kinda looks like Sunset Riders.
Based off a cartoon, but as many people are saying here, yeah, replace the heroes with humanoid bulls and yeah, it pretty much was Sunset Riders
Underrated
¡Qué recuerdos de los 90's!
In some ways better than sunset riders, just needed a little bit more work.. the shooting sound should be different. Voices a bit too cheesy.
I remember I used to watch this show on Saturday morning cartoons
