Favourite and/or most disappointing home arcade ports

[crunchywasp]

that's ace. I'm pretty sure I've been caught out by some games mag April Fool's lies - most likely false announcements that got me all excited. Mean Machines always made an effort on April Fool's

I still have Mega Drive VR - it was awesome (& expensive) at the time and was great seeing your MD pushing so many (ahem) polygons around. VR Deluxe on the 32X is still great I reckon and I still like a bit of VR on the Saturn

Ahh mean machines I've got a feeling it was in that, that was the one that had. How do I put it their own characters?

[crunchywasp]

MM was a firm favourite of mine. Jazza, Rich, Gaz, Rad etc

Great archive here that'll bring back loads of memories...

Captain Commando on the SNES was a disappoint as you couldn't ride the mechas - that was one of my favourite parts from the arcade.

Street Fighter 2 Turbo on the SNES was ace and still is IMO

Pit Fighter - I enjoyed this on the Amiga, took my ages to pull off the moves but was still fun

Crazy Taxi on the DC - one of my all time favourites and great mini games. Virtua Tennis was also another classic port. Got to love the DC and Sega for all their great arcade games ports

I miss Sega consoles and their arcade games I remember waiting for Manx TT to be released on the Saturn, I hammered that and Sega Rally in the local bowling alley

The DC bought me back to console gaming. Was totally addicted to it. Got to get my VGA box dusted and get the DC re-connected

Same here, my DC is currently sat all unloved in the spare bedroom (on the floor and totally unplugged )

There are so many awesome games on the DC, it is unbelieveable that it bombed so early in its life.

[emphatic]

Agreed. Time to put it back into my EGRET II for some nice DC Arcade ports!

I consider SF2 World Warriors SNES to be arcade perfect. I know it isn´t graphically, but still.
It is amazing. I bought a Super Famicom with SF2 offcourse, 60hz, duh!

I remember getting mortal kombat 2 on the snes and thinking it was
About £50 at the time too I think

[cools]

MK2 on Amiga was a great port.

[tart31]

I loved MK2 on SNES, at one point I knew everyones move.

I remember paying 60 notes for nba jam on the snes!! To be fair that was also a great port....from down town, he's on fire!

[crunchywasp]

NBA Jam was

[tart31]

Ah NBA jam was quality!

I bought SF2 on c64 and took it back the same day, it kept crashing on the 2nd fight, but obviously that wasn't the main reason I took it back.

Golden Axe and Final Fight were both awesome on the megadrive

a lot of the PS2 ports sucked big time. Only remembering those 480i ports make my eyes hurt...
