Really, whatever happened to the long list of pending ones?īesides, I don't find any review of this game. The Switch has been a boon for fans of arcade and retro gaming, but there are still so many deserving titles still out there.Īnother surprise release. Where licensing is an issue, find a way to make it happen. But they, M2, and other retro specialists would be doing gamers an immense favor by giving us more of the truly great titles we actually want. There's nothing wrong with Hamster helping to preserve every arcade game they can.even the lesser or more obscure ones. Even light gun games might finally have a means to return to home screens by utilizing the Switch's Jo圜ons, such as Time Crisis, the Point Blank series, and House of the Dead. There are awesome licensed coin-ops to revisit, including the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games, Super Star Wars Arcade, and Marvel vs. Namco never released several of their most iconic games, such as Ms. Sega still has a slew of genuine classics from across the entire history of arcades, ranging from Zaxxon, Congo Bongo, and Pengo to Afterburner to the Model 2 icons like Daytona USA, Daytona USA 2, SCUD Racer, and Virtua Fighter. We still haven't seen a current-gen Midway collection or proper Neo-Geo compilation (including Neo CD titles like Viewpoint). There are still a ton of genuine classic arcade games still waiting for an appearance on Switch (or ANY console), more than enough for Hamster not to have to space them so far apart. Worse, that obscurity is all too often the case for a reason, as there's no sugarcoating the reality that many of these games simply aren't very good. That said, their catalog to date overwhelmingly consists of titles that are either so obscure that many if not most people (even those of us who were around for the heyday of arcades) were unaware even existed. Hamster's run of consecutive weeks of releases is very impressive and all, and I realize that many of these old coin-ops would never have seen a home console release otherwise.
