Ibara after a long break from it, my crappy "high score" is but a pipe dream at the moment infact I seem to be getting worse by credit.

Windy - Street Fighter 3 3rd strike on new battery.

Just changed 6 x CPS3 cart batteries and all good, nerve racking but very pleased indeed.

Power Stone. Absolute blast to play with my kids. They are so savage. But I still manage to beat them at it.

Meh, I’m out of practice… invite me back and we’ll see how I do 8-)

Edit: Also, you’ve got it! Bung a memory card in so you don’t have to play 20 minutes to get to mission 6, and you’ll have it battered in short order

Edit edit: sublime MVS choices! Aside from Magical drop, can’t fault it!! Bung a NITD, Zupapa or Neo Turf Masters in there, and you’re immaculate.

Is Zupapa good? That's one Neo game I don't think I've really ever played.

I really enjoy it. It’s a Snow Bros clone, like NITD. Slightly different mechanics, but very similar.

Looks a bit childish at first glance, but it’s actually good fun and really playable.

One of only two left on my MVS wish list (the other is Ninja Commando, which is seriously underrated)

Never played Snow Bros but do enjoy a bit of Nightmare in the Dark and Zupapa - which one of these is the best - would it be Bubble Bobble?

Virtua Fighter 3tb. It's in there most of the time. The other three that get some playtime are Samurai Spirits 2: Asura Zanmaden, Street Fighter Zero 3 and World Heroes Perfect. The rest just hide in the kloset. Forever.

I'd say Snow Bros is the best out of all these 1 screen type games, followed very closely by Tumblepop and Bubble Bobble.

Having owned the game for nearly ten years, I've finally just got round to playing it "properly" (on Mister :shifty:) and learning how the specials, combos, bombs etc actually work!

It's great fun, and equally as good for a laugh just having a good ol' button bash. Cool music, backgrounds and animations too :awe:
