About two years ago I found a reproduction cartridge of a special modified version of Mighty Final Fight on Etsy where you can use this trick to control the enemy characters with a second controller. Even though I had previous bought the Famicom version in 2007.
My family actually has that Capcom Classics collection on GBA. Apparently my Dad bought it for Bionic Commando, and didn't really care about the others. It wasn't until recently that I actually learned more about the other games, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that they were from such respected franchises, and are generally considered pretty good on their own. _The more you know._
This is EXACTLY why I don't buy clone systems. The only positive is they can apply rom translations to imports. Also, dat Rewind Mike reference. Nice job as always!
Dongled Yeah, but did you see how much better the footage from the Retron looked over the GC? I haven't had too many issues with the Retron 5, but this was one of the more annoying problems. And yeah, Rewind flashing his MFF cart around encouraged me to finally make this video. I've had the idea for a while now. Glad you liked it man! Got some fun stuff planned for October.
Basically Retron5 it's using stolen outdated source code from retroarch cores (www.libretro.com/index.php/retroarch-license-violations/), basically the gba core used in retron5 it's VBA-M, if they would use the mGBA core instead it would run flawlessly xD
I shit you not I'm playing this game for the 1st time ever right now and I see why it's so highly regarded! My Famicom/NES adapter came in the mail today & this is on a 400 in 1 multicart. I'm not seeing any lag or flicker either. I'm only halfway through but it's been super easy so far. Controls are great. Exp power-up system is way better than a point meter.
Quit copying me! Ha ha, the game starts out kinda easy, but the difficulty ramps up around stage four. Of course, I use Cody for the most part, which I feel makes the game a bit easier than with Haggar or Guy.
Excellent review, as always, Wes. Also, congratulations on your Broncos' victory over my Cowboys last weekend. We were pathetic, but your defense is LEGIT. Trevor Siemian can throw a little, too.
Absolutely LOVE this game, probably the best playing beat 'em up on the NES. I got my Famicom version a number of years ago for cheap and I'm more than happy with that. I've actually never owned a clone console. Are these kinds of issues common?
KidShoryuken I think this game is a bit overrated, but after playing through it five times to capture footage for this video, I have a new found appreciation for it. Had I not picked it up for $5 back in '96 when people couldn't give away NES games, I'd probably only have experienced it on the GBA. Clone systems can have some issues, but I use the Retron 5 to capture all of my NES, SNES, Genesis, GB, GBA, Famicom, SMS footage and rarely run into any issues. The music on MUSHA was "off" for a while, but was fixed with an update. Adventures of Lolo 2 just goes to a black screen when you start a game. I've had some issues with maybe about four or five games.
@@badcp455 Yeah. I just run a HDMI cable from the Retron to my capture card, then a HDMI from that to the TV, while the cap card is connected to my computer by USB of course. Captures in 720p.
Is Mighty Final Fight a solo grind or is there a Co-Op option? Interesting how they made a more console friendly version of Final Fight for the NES, but you can get Final Fight on SNES. Maybe it had something to do with capabilities of the systems, I find NES has less restrictions towards violence then SNES, so I found this curious.
I bought this nes cart 4 years ago for 2 dollars at Salvation Army in Hells Kitchen. When it first came out, I had a ps1 and I didn't want to play a cute em up unless it was River City Ransom, plus the Sega CD version was the definitive version of FF. If I was not beating the shit out of someone and taking their cash, learning new moves to kick some teeth in, or washing my ass like I did in River City Ransom, I was not interested. Boy I made that mistake passing this game on when I played it a few years ago, I was really impressed, I mean come-on I was spoiled by Double Dragon and could not top that fix on the nes, Yea I was wrong, great game, good video on it!
Thanks, man! Ha ha, you got a helluva a deal! I got mine for $5. I actually think that this game is a bit overrated. Hell, I think River City Ransom is kinda overrated, too. I like both, but I honestly prefer Double Dragon on the NES. I've always felt this way. But I do think I like MFF better now, after playing through it several times to get footage for this video.
Really? Everyone goes ga-ga for this game. I like it, but it's definitely not one of my favorites. And yeah, who knew a game I paid $5 for over 20 years ago would now be almost 40 times that?
So yea, thats why everyones captured footage comes out way better than mine, they are emulating. Hmmm I guess if im not one crediting or beating a game, im gonna have to use emulation for capture now.
Dude, it just looks so clean. And I like to use close-ups a lot, so those sharp pixels look nice! How 'bout that shitty GameCube footage? Man, that looked like ass! Composite cables on that one.
Hate to be that guy, but yea, I gave my Retron 5 away to Bithead. Of course, he turned around and gave me hus Mighty Final Fight box and manual. Now I just need the game, but fir now, I have capcom classics mini mix. I love my AVS though. I’ll spend the extra money on FPGA systems such as the super nt and AVS, because they play virtually the same as the original systems (which I also have setup to my sdtv). Yea im jim carrey typing at my keyboard. Lol
I love you videos, I'm a fan. (This is unsolicited feedback). This video wasn't that good because of the "method" used for comparing game performance. The video even ended up discussing about the Reton5 which isn't even real hardware. It was irrelevant all throughout the video. Better not to even mention it since it gave you no information regarding what you wanted to compare in the first place. Comparing a port to the original is a matter of looking at a few things; sound (wave signal), latency (measure it), graphics (compare sprites, color levels), framerate (measure it). If is not an actual port but an improved version then you can discuss Story, new mechanics, physical addons like the game manual or box.
I disagree. Many people have never owned a GBA or GBA Player and are now discovering these games because they play retro games through the Retron 5. Warning them that the GBA version doesn't work properly may save someone from wasting time and money. If someone warned me of something like that I would be extremely grateful. It may not be applicable to you, but for someone like me, that info would be invaluable. This wasn't meant to be a technical comparison. I'm not a "tech" guy, and I don't pretend to be. Being a fan of mine, I'm actually surprised that you didn't know this already. The bottom line is that on the GBA and GBA Player the game is almost identical to the original NES version. That's the main takeaway from this video, and the majority of viewers understand that. Providing any more info would've been completely redundant.
The gba is the same game as the nes version ive got ot on gba cuz i wont pay what idiots want for nes games nowadays. Use to play it all the time back in the day on nes .
Retron 5ucks! I didn't know there was an NES Final Fight game. Looks awesome! Bummer about the price. Good thing I am 100% ok with emulating on my computer ;)
I love the Retron 5! That's where all of my 8 & 16-bit footage comes from. Yeah, I've owned this game since the '90s. I only paid $5 for it, otherwise it would definitely be the GBA version only!
Nefarious Wes nice. Great video. I love this game. My copy, along with my copy of project justice, mega man x, my wiiu, the core of my magic collection, my guitars, and so much other stuff was stolen and I can't bite the bullet to replace it:(
Nefarious Wes yeah. They caught the guy, but could only charge him with some of it and I only recovered part of my magic cards. It's ok though. I've replaced alot of it, and I live vicariously thru my favorite you tube retro gamers. That's you, big brother!

_The more you know._
Bionic Commando is definitely the best of the three, but Strider is no slouch and Mighty Final Fight is a lot of fun, too!
Oooh I love it when you do “that voice”. It’s perfect with the Carry video. Thanks for making my month once again.
Which voice?
This game is better than young version final fight. I love this game.
You can also find Mighty Final Fight on the Retro-Bit Super Retrocade. I didn't notice any slowdown while playing it.
My buddy is sending me one. I can't wait to play it!
This is EXACTLY why I don't buy clone systems. The only positive is they can apply rom translations to imports. Also, dat Rewind Mike reference. Nice job as always!

Nefarious Wes excellent! I guess I'm a purist when it comes to gaming on legitimate consoles instead of clone consoles.
Dongled preach

Yeah but who wants to take an ass raping on buying the copy. Cool baby has an awesome port on it!
The price for the NES cartridge is just ridiculous. The game is good, but not worth the insane prices some people put on it nowadays.
Oh, it's not even close to being worth what it's going for these days.
On the $30 go retro portable mighty final fight is on there and it's pretty similar to the nes version
I shit you not I'm playing this game for the 1st time ever right now and I see why it's so highly regarded! My Famicom/NES adapter came in the mail today & this is on a 400 in 1 multicart.

And then Buffalo happened. Your Cowboys need to step it up against Arizona--oh, 'Zeke just busted off a run. Thanks, man!
Hey man, great video! Really liking your stuff, keep it up!
Desthetic Thanks!

@@NefariousWes I'm sorry, but did you say you can capture using the...Retron 5? Can you give me some details
on how it works? SD or HD, for example.
@@badcp455 Yeah. I just run a HDMI cable from the Retron to my capture card, then a HDMI from that to the TV, while the cap card is connected to my computer by USB of course. Captures in 720p.
Always wanted to try this game. It actually looks really good. Music sounds great!
Another great affordable way to play these days is on the Retrocade by retrobit
Yeah, I got that thing. It's great!
I'd still buy it, only if i found a clean one in person .

BrothersForgeGaming Just like the SNES game--it's only one player. I think no more than two enemy sprites appear at any time.

Anything Tecmos did was gold!
Yeah, Technos made great games.
My all time fav nes game! Who knew they’d end up costing a fortune.
Really? Everyone goes ga-ga for this game. I like it, but it's definitely not one of my favorites. And yeah, who knew a game I paid $5 for over 20 years ago would now be almost 40 times that?
Another great t shirt. Are all of us 8 bit fanatics also into punk rock??
It's pretty common.
The best beat'em up NA, hands down. I've played through this game 6 times since trading for it@
It's not bad. I like it more now after playing through it five times for this video.
So yea, thats why everyones captured footage comes out way better than mine, they are emulating. Hmmm

Man everyone has mighty final fight but me :( will admit i was about to mention the retron 5 thing lol
Oh, I know you were, ha ha. You gotta get a copy if you wanna be one of the "cool kids".
Nefarious Wes thats alright I got little Samson :)

I think Nes Original Version Still The best✊

As long as you can play it, I'm playing it on my ds lite 👍

I think bionic and fight are both on the Wii u
MFF wouldn't surprise me, but Bionic Commando would. I thought Nintendo didn't ever want to touch it again since Hitler is in it.
Richard Oaks They changed his name for the American version, but even when I was ten I knew he was Hitler.
Nefarious Wes nice. Great video. I love this game. My copy, along with my copy of project justice, mega man x, my wiiu, the core of my magic collection, my guitars, and so much other stuff was stolen and I can't bite the bullet to replace it:(

dont use a retron 5?
There's emulation people
First time I get disappointed with Retron 5!
Yeah. Other than this and maybe two or three other games that I've played, the Retron has been great.
@@NefariousWes I love my retron5 but I recently bought this Capcom Megamix for the reason to play mighty final fight. I have no problem playing it with my DS but I wanted to broadcast using my Retron 5 oops. Thanks for the video I should have watched it before I bought it
@@열심게임 Yeah, it's a real bummer.
From what I remember, that game plays really bad on all gameboy emulators.
That must be the issue.
