@electrolite77 I know, it’s quite comical. So far I have clocked 280 hours on this, and have not completed it yet (admittedly, I am not rushing through it). I consider that quite good value for money
Is Grove Street doing this remaster?
They did such a good job with GTA 🤪
Edit: I feel like Trigger now, perhaps I should read comments before coming a bit late with this joke.
This old broom as had 32 new heads, and 14 new handles!
I was fool enough to buy this when it launched, but I have only played Vice City. Although there still issues with the last updates, it is playable. Adding the fog back in makes a big difference
I probably will buy this, but I want play without any guides.
Not sure how many hours I have played, but been playing it everyday since May 13th.
I have 118 Shrines, 70 Light Thingies, have maximised weapon / bow slots, just 3 more shield slots to get.
Upgraded most outfits, but 500 for the last upgrade is a real road block on that.
I have only done 3 Temples, but foolishly did all of the Dragon Tears before starting the Temples, so twist to the story was known too early (IMO).
I have been playing at a very slow pace, exploring and collecting.
Best value I have had from a game in years.
I’ve put in about 20 hours, haven’t really touched any main quests. Done 34 Shrines and 5 Towers, 2 light thingies. I am happy just exploring at the moment
They should give us an HD release of the unreleased Rogue Squadron Trilogy, that was completed for the Wii. The 3rd game is worth it to get the original Atari Arcade games
@gcunit the reason I asked because you said NS was one the 1st games you played on the Amiga. I know that NS was part of that Pack.
My friend had that Pack, which was what I wanted, but it was later so ended up with ‘Flight of Fantasy’ Pack. That had ‘Escape From The Planet Of The Robot Monsters’, Rainbow Islands, and F29 Retaliator. They were all very good, but was gutted I didn’t have Batman.
Excellent that it is confirmed. Wiki stated that this is going to release tomorrow a few weeks ago, but you never be 100% sure it will be. Come on Rainbow Islands
@electrolite77 I also had an Amstrad 6128. From what I remember, most of the Taito Arcade Conversion were done by Ocean, and were fantastic. The Sega Arcade Conversions were mostly done by US Gold, and were so disappointing
According to Wiki, the New Zealand Story is scheduled to release as an Arcade Archive title at the end of this month. We had Bubble Bobble last week. I am hoping Rainbow Islands, Chase HQ, SCI, Operation Wolf / Thunderbolt (with motion control) will follow
I have a lot of Arcade Archives on my Wish list. I normally pick these games when they randomly do a 50% off sale. Typical Nintendo, could not go to 50% off like the Non Nintendo Arcade Archives, had to do 33%. Tighter than a Duck’s ….
My favourite game on the Atari 2600 was ‘Frostbite’ (similar type game to Frogger), so most disappointing it didn’t make the cut, along with the Starwars Games.
Kaboom was also a fantastic game, very addictive. Would have been interested what the controller set up would have been. I guess tilting would be alternative to rotary

Re: Taito Corporation Preparing For 70th Anniversary Celebrations In 2023
@Mario500 Hi there. Wikipedia.
There is an Arcade Archives / ACA Neo Geo page. It lists all game available for PS4 and Switch
It is regularly updated. Occasionally you get Bogus Entries, but I find most of the time this is reliable and accurate
Re: Taito Corporation Preparing For 70th Anniversary Celebrations In 2023
@electrolite77 I also had an Amstrad 6128. From what I remember, most of the Taito Arcade Conversion were done by Ocean, and were fantastic.

Re: Taito Corporation Preparing For 70th Anniversary Celebrations In 2023

We had Bubble Bobble last week.
I am hoping Rainbow Islands, Chase HQ, SCI, Operation Wolf / Thunderbolt (with motion control) will follow
Re: Nintendo Download: 29th December (North America)
Bubble Bobble at last.
Hopefully this is the start of more Taito classics coming.
Wiki says New Zealand Story will release on 26th Jan. Not sure how reliable that is
Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd December (North America)
Wiki says Bubble Bobble will be the last Arcade Archives release this year
