The First Funky Fighter is exactly like a over the top whack a mole game, pbs.twimg.com/media/DX4ascSX4AAHYwV.jpg if you've ever seen the cabinet, it has 9 massive buttons you gotta slam quickly, so its basically Fist of the North Star the carnival game
Hah the guy in the first clip looks identical to Schachi. Come to think of it I don’t even know if Hara did HNK2. I need to look that up. But still after I saw this comment I had to go back and look. Good bit of trivia 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Vendetta looks pretty cool honestly. Looks very grounded, the characters fall to the ground, you can kick them. You throw the characters only a few feet. It has a punk aesthetic (although theyre the bad guys lmao). Looks really cool
@@whosaidthat84 also most games just go with the basic traditional look and not go with what hasn't been done to death before. White vision in a video game was a surprise.
Don't be so naive. You know why those leather clad guys are walking like that. They dance at the Blue oyster. And do you think Jesse Ventura is too old to star in films anymore? Because he would have been perfect as Hagar in a Final Fight film adaptation back in the day.
@@unclegoose3864 haha I never noticed that. I googled the colour code and it turns out red means fisting. Which explains why these guys walk the way they do in Vendetta. I like developers with a warped sense of humour like mine.
It looks like a violent form of Gaelic football. Which is like soccer but you can carry the ball by hand as long as you "dribble" every few steps by dropping the ball and kicking it back up to yourself.
There's a ps1 game called DBZ that I bought as a kid because my dumbass thought it was a dragon ball z game. It ended up being one of my most played games because it was a more fun version of soccer like the one in this vid. Except it has bombs, guns, and chainsaws. Not to mention button combos to do bigger damage on the enemy so you do a crazy wrestling move on them lol. Cool to see an older version of that game style.
@@arkanjoteixeira I think in the US handball is not common, probably most North Americans don't know about it eventhough it's a widely known sport accross the rest of the world.
@@arkanjoteixeira u dont know about it either man, if u did you would know in handball u got to dribble, just like in basketball, wich doesnt seems to happen in that game
While “The Satan” in Ninja Kids might just be a translation glitch (Japanese doesn’t really have a definite article, so its usage in English can be unintuitive), it also aligns with the usage in the Hebrew Tanakh. The book of Job refers to השטן (HaSatan), meaning something like “the adversary/accuser”. If you only translated the article, it would be “The Satan”. Just a neat little tidbit.
I'm pretty sure it's just supposed to be comedic, like when a letter for Kermit is labeled as "Mr. the Frog", or when stuff is badly translated from English to Spanish and then back to English ("¡Me llamo de pescina de la muerte!")
watching a letsplay done by a Japanese player, all of the text was in English; I don't think there's a Japanese language version to speak of, and therefore it was always The Satan
I love that Avengers game, I still play it to this day, love the pixel art and how the music gets more heroic when you are about to beat the stage boss and the cabinet was so gorgeous
Heavy Smash is actually based on the sport "European Handball". You did describe it nicely, but it is a fun sport. I loved playing it in Highschool. And thanks for the Vendetta reference, i totally kiss that game.
I mean... we just call it "handball" but yeah, this is the comment I was looking for the moment that showed up. It's hilarious to catch both the extremely obscure ice hockey reference at the top of the video and the entirely oblivious handball-is-made-up at the end. 'Murrica, I suppose.
Me: * sees game called hot dog storm * Also me, imagining what I could say to my friends regarding this: " *Finally, they made the perfect game for your mom* "
I remember playing Rohga Armor Force (Wolf Fang Kuhga 2001) years ago, and that game has ports in PS1 and Saturn, part of the same series as the shooter Vapor Trail. And as for Xexex, I remember playing it on the PSP Salamander Portable compilation. (Xexex did appear on the SNES BUT as a minigame in Ganbare Goemon 2.) Vendetta's main characters (except one) are somehow reminiscent of Hulk Hogan, Mr. T and Van Damme.
Totally with you on Slam Masters 2 as I had no idea it existed, but now I'm excited to try it. I did play and enjoy Vendetta and Ninja Kids in the arcade back in the early 90s. Both would have made excellent ports for the SNES.
With the color hack even better! One of the few games you could use a SMS controller for player 2! All you need was the jump button and the shield toss!
It's amazing how so many of these look like they were being played directly on the home systems like Super Nes, Genesis, and Neo Geo for some of the higher end graphics. Also, as a hockey fan I love that you made a Miroslav Satan reference, I just wish you had a picture of him in a Buffalo Sabres uniform.
SnesDrunk I've been watching your videos for a couple of years now, but I only just dusted off the old childhood PAL Snes and started buying up some more cartridges last month. 'Link to the Past' is on it's way, and I can't wait! I've never played it on the original hardware before
The shitty port of the Combatribes. My friend and I played that arcade all summer once back in 94. Imagine our surprise when we played the crappy SNES version. Man what a letdown.
Finest Hour - the game with level names that have Rush references (Middletown Dreams/Subdivisions/Distant Early Warning/Grace Under Pressure) The First Funky Fighter was one of a few games developed by Nakanihon and distributed by Taito - another one was Monkey Mole Panic which was exactly as you said it was a whack a mole redemption game with 9 buttons in a 3 x 3 grid which I played a lot of back in the day and I imagine this game was exactly the same.
I just caught up on this entire series, and I would love more! I recently got into MAME emulation and some of these have been FANTASTIC. Love your channel!
Saw the video chapters and that "Intro" was 30s. Was slightly disappointed when it wasn't a 30s sssssssnesdrunk :P Great vid again dude, love your stuff!
Heavy Smash is based on a true sport called "Handball" which is like football("soccer") but the players use their hands instead of their feet. it's actually quite fun.
Probably the most MOST underrated game from Capcom is Tiger Road, the Ghosts 'n Goblins unpopular brother (from the same creator Tokuro Fujiwara). Is a shame that Tiger Road was never ported to SNES (only and poorly to the TG16), is a short but very fun side-scroll fighting game (well is a 1987 game, so don't expect too much), with nice music and sound effects, and a hard to master jump as part of its proposal, and with an amazing Chinese folklore behind. At least Trojan had his own NES version, and GnG both NES and SNES: Tiger Road should have a sequel, remake, or a relaunch, other than the lost and forgotten hidden gem in Capcom's Classic Collection Vol. 2 for PS2. For me is a classic, and a must play game if you love the Side-scroll fighting genre. Cheers.
Vendetta! I was literally thinking about this game a few days ago. They had it at an Alfy’s pizza when I was a kid. So I would play it any time I went there. I never actually knew what it was called. Thanks for bringing back up that memory, snes drunk. Love your channel! Been watching it for a couple years now. Great content.
I strongly disagree with "Ring of destruction" being a good sequel to "Saturday Night Slammasters", it took away everything good about Slammasters and turned it into a generic vs beat'em up. It's not bad but there's no comparison with the original since they are even in diferent genres
Yeah its great graphic spectacle but the gameplay was simplified to a watered down to be more of a mediocre Street fighter clone. Maybe there was a middle ground game possible that the way they did it they pretty much nixed all the charisma that the original one had
One change I remember from Slam Masters 1 and 2 was in 1 you could move your character up and down in the ring. In 2 you can only move left and right like in street fighter
The one arcade game I thought I wanted to see on here is Crime Fighters. If anyone doesn’t remember, It’s a side scrolling beat em up where you face guys with Mohawks, guys in tuxedos dancing then doing karate when you approach them. I don’t remember much but it was a fun arcade game I played when I was a kid.
I can't be 100% sure about this, but if I recall correctly, hotdog storm is called that as a nod toward the heroes which the logo on the title screen appears to refer to as "The first supersonics" Of course, this might just be a phalanx situation where they just wanted their game to stand out in some way.
Great list. You constantly find rare gems from the 90’s that went largely under the radar. After watching I’m on a Rom hunt in time, playing em later that same day. Nice one, as always 😀👍🏻
"Hot dog" can refer to doing stunts/tricks, generally showing off. I assume they're making reference to fighter jets doing barrel rolls and stuff like that. No idea if you can even do that in the game though.
Dude I should have checked out your arcade games sooner. You really have some cool ones you've shown off. Thanks man I've been wading through a sea of the same games from complications on TH-cam.
Sjaaaaa... I remember playing Captain America and the Avengers on the SNES. What a slog. Vendetta looks interesting, but could do with a bit of shine & polish. Heck, I'd love to try any of these games.
I don't think I will ever get over the unique combination of intense video game knowledge with serious sports references. I mean, I don't ever get the sports callouts but it sounds cool?
The First Funky Fighter has a really unique setup that makes playing it a blast! There's nine large buttons that you have to press, similar to whack-a-mole, and you have to hit the button that responds to the area onscreen. It's a trip to play the full cabinet and a pretty good workout too!
Even happier news for the Cap and the Avengers game; ZVitor recreated it on the Marvel Infinity War fan game. Not just a solid beat em up, but you pretty much can get almost everyone that was an Avenger at some point.
I didn't think there were any hidden gems left for me to find after 3 years of digging and then you show me Bay Route and Finest Hour. Definitely checking those out tonight! I discovered Heavy Smash a few months ago its so fun.
@SNES drunk Just a heads up for Hotdog Storm. Pilots use the term: "Hotdog" to describe someone that is being a daredevil or a risk taker or possibly even a show off. That's why it's named that way. Looks like an amazing Shump. I will have to try it out. Thanks for the video.
Vendetta is awsome. I love kicking people on the ground like you are mugging them! I completed it a while ago on an emulator and had all the players mapped to the same buttons so was controling 4 characters at once.
Ring of Destruction is awesome. Closer to a SF, but more aggressive since there aren't many kame attacks, and it has way more special grappling moves than your usual 2D fighter. Really nice combo system and mechanics.
I remember loving the Captain America Arcade game, so when I saw the port at Wal-Mart, my Mom put it on Layaway. I'll never forget how disappointed I was in how bad that port was.
I remember getting the NES version or to be more correct the Famicom version, expecting to be something like the arcade and boy we were in for a surprise, of course it was not before even we see any game magazines we were very young and living in a small town that you didn't get much of anything really. And after playing Tmnt2 the arcade game we thought that expecting an arcade port for the NES wasn't something outrageous
Ninja Kids is great in Multiplayer Mode. Have it on a Taito Legends Collection for PS2 and I remember having a lot of Fun playing it with my Brother back then.
It's always a great day when Snesdrunk uploads Hey man, are you gonna play the new Ghosts and Goblins game at all? I think it looks pretty cool though I'm waiting till I get paid before I buy it Could he an interesting game to stream, since you're such a huge fan of super ghouls and ghosts. Other than the PSP game, this is basically the first home console sequel to super ghouls and ghosts. So I'd love to hear your thoughts on it
I first heard about Slam Masters 2 via MvCI rumors. Prior to the announcement of the DLC characters, there were references in the game's files to such characters as Black Panther, Monster Hunter, etc, and Black Widow was among those names. Noticing that there were more Marvel characters than Capcom ones, people started assuming that "Black Widow" was referring to the Slam Masters 2 character so that it would even out. But then it just turned out that no, it was in fact Natasha Romanoff, this whole fan-theory was a case of Epileptic Trees, and Crapcom just really wanted to piss off people with OCD.
Speaking of Pacman-Era things, there was this supposed sequel to Robotron named Blaster. It has nothing whatsoever to do with a twin stick shooter, but it's kinda like Space Harrier before Space Harrier and they actually mix things up beween levels so you have different objectives every time. This never really made it anywhere, even when they were tossing out compolations of older arcade games everywhere.
Wow, lots of things to comment on! Starting from the end, Heavy Smash looks like extreme handball (which is not a made up sport - I mean, all of them are, but you get the idea, as it was a olympic one back in 2016). It's funny to see Haggar and Vendetta in the same video because back in the day when I was still very much into Final Fight a friend of mine would say "FF is so last year, Vendetta is the real shit right now", and I kinda despised Vendetta for some time because of that, since I played it and thought it was cool but not as much as Final Fight. Looking backwards I acknowledge its quality. Ninja Kids was the biggest surprise for me, never heard of it prior to the video and it looks like a lot of fun! Also, I was crossing my fingers to see some hotdog blast or a mustard beam on Hotdog Storm, but you can't always get what you want as it seems. Finally, did you mean Axelay instead of Gradius when speaking about selecting the weapon types before the stages on Rohga Armor Force? Well, I believe this is it. Great video as usual, have a good rest of your day!

Prehistoric Isle 2 did get an AES release
Where is the OG Darkstalkers?
The character designs and art for Slam Masters were done by the one and only Tetsuo Hara, author of Fist of the North Star!
No wonder the only two body types were "Beefcake" and "Giant Phatass"
Hah the guy in the first clip looks identical to Schachi. Come to think of it I don’t even know if Hara did HNK2. I need to look that up.

I love how White vision is a playable character
Seeing Vision in that game was the first time I ever saw him. Colorful Vision looked so weird haha
@@whosaidthat84 also most games just go with the basic traditional look and not go with what hasn't been done to death before. White vision in a video game was a surprise.
They made the game when Vision in the comics was in his "White Phase".

Don't be so naive. You know why those leather clad guys are walking like that. They dance at the Blue oyster.
And do you think Jesse Ventura is too old to star in films anymore? Because he would have been perfect as Hagar in a Final Fight film adaptation back in the day.
A fellow Police Academy fan, I see. Good on ya!
"PROCTER! MOVE IT, MOVE IT!"

"If you're into made up sports games" I think rugby and handball would like to have a word about that
Technically Super Pac Man isn't becoming a giant, he's meant to be flying over the maze. That's why the ghosts look funky at the same time.
Thumbs up for the Miroslav Satan reference.
The last game is more like an over-the-top handball game
It looks like a violent form of Gaelic football. Which is like soccer but you can carry the ball by hand as long as you "dribble" every few steps by dropping the ball and kicking it back up to yourself.
'Soccer mixed with basketball' lmao my dude doesn't know about Handball

@SNES drunk Just a heads up for Hotdog Storm. Pilots use the term: "Hotdog" to describe someone that is being a daredevil or a risk taker or possibly even a show off. That's why it's named that way. Looks like an amazing Shump. I will have to try it out. Thanks for the video.
Vendetta is awsome. I love kicking people on the ground like you are mugging them! I completed it a while ago on an emulator and had all the players mapped to the same buttons so was controling 4 characters at once.
Ring of Destruction is awesome. Closer to a SF, but more aggressive since there aren't many kame attacks, and it has way more special grappling moves than your usual 2D fighter. Really nice combo system and mechanics.
Bay Route. Rush 'N Attack. Gotta love it, haha.
awesome finds+choices! I'm gonna have to "any way you can" these games
I remember loving the Captain America Arcade game, so when I saw the port at Wal-Mart, my Mom put it on Layaway.
I'll never forget how disappointed I was in how bad that port was.
That Miroslav Satan joke killed me, that's an mst3k calibur level of referential humor.
Don't forget in Ninja Kids, the moon in that werewolf boss battle doubles as a life bar.
I really enjoy watching you're content thank you
This game deff brings a lot of good times
Thank you! I remembered dark seal but never knew the name. It was awesome at the arcades!
I remember my cousin and I being so excited for that Captain America game, then we bought it and... oh no.
Yep.
I remember getting the NES version or to be more correct the Famicom version, expecting to be something like the arcade and boy we were in for a surprise, of course it was not before even we see any game magazines we were very young and living in a small town that you didn't get much of anything really. And after playing Tmnt2 the arcade game we thought that expecting an arcade port for the NES wasn't something outrageous
Exelente juego, lo jugué mucho de niño. ( Capitán América y los vengadores)
Heavy Smash seems like something between handball, rugby and australian football... fun stuff.
Ninja Kids is great in Multiplayer Mode. Have it on a Taito Legends Collection for PS2 and I remember having a lot of Fun playing it with my Brother back then.
I love your nod to Miroslav Satan.
Love the content! Would love to see some more longer-form videos like this from you!
It's always a great day when Snesdrunk uploads
Hey man, are you gonna play the new Ghosts and Goblins game at all? I think it looks pretty cool though I'm waiting till I get paid before I buy it
Could he an interesting game to stream, since you're such a huge fan of super ghouls and ghosts. Other than the PSP game, this is basically the first home console sequel to super ghouls and ghosts. So I'd love to hear your thoughts on it
I'm always sure to have a great rest of my day after one of these!
I first heard about Slam Masters 2 via MvCI rumors.
Prior to the announcement of the DLC characters, there were references in the game's files to such characters as Black Panther, Monster Hunter, etc, and Black Widow was among those names. Noticing that there were more Marvel characters than Capcom ones, people started assuming that "Black Widow" was referring to the Slam Masters 2 character so that it would even out.
But then it just turned out that no, it was in fact Natasha Romanoff, this whole fan-theory was a case of Epileptic Trees, and Crapcom just really wanted to piss off people with OCD.
Speaking of Pacman-Era things, there was this supposed sequel to Robotron named Blaster. It has nothing whatsoever to do with a twin stick shooter, but it's kinda like Space Harrier before Space Harrier and they actually mix things up beween levels so you have different objectives every time. This never really made it anywhere, even when they were tossing out compolations of older arcade games everywhere.
"I wish they had ported Captain America to the Super NES."
"But they-"
"THAT NEVER HAPPENED."
"But!"
"SILENCE!"
Wow, lots of things to comment on! Starting from the end, Heavy Smash looks like extreme handball (which is not a made up sport - I mean, all of them are, but you get the idea, as it was a olympic one back in 2016). It's funny to see Haggar and Vendetta in the same video because back in the day when I was still very much into Final Fight a friend of mine would say "FF is so last year, Vendetta is the real shit right now", and I kinda despised Vendetta for some time because of that, since I played it and thought it was cool but not as much as Final Fight. Looking backwards I acknowledge its quality.
Ninja Kids was the biggest surprise for me, never heard of it prior to the video and it looks like a lot of fun! Also, I was crossing my fingers to see some hotdog blast or a mustard beam on Hotdog Storm, but you can't always get what you want as it seems. Finally, did you mean Axelay instead of Gradius when speaking about selecting the weapon types before the stages on Rohga Armor Force? Well, I believe this is it. Great video as usual, have a good rest of your day!
Love these lists. Need to fire up the pi again and check them out!
Ever heard of Handball? it's a sport, and Heavy Smash kinda looks like it
I’ve heard it called Gator Ball
where do you think handball came from ;)
Hotdog Storm..."hot dog" as in "hot dogging/hot shot/showing off", etc. It's in reference to the aerial hot shotting dogfight action 😎
I forgot all about Vendetta! We need a release on all these ASAP!
