Yeah you're right, OP. We should play real classics like Mr. Wino and Dizzy Prince of the Yolkfolk on the ZX Spectrum instead.

the australian autist has been on a rampage lately

whiny faggot, thread hidden

the passwords are annoying. everything else you wrote is unironically a positive

I feel like internet culture of the late 90s/early 2000s did a lot of heavy lifting for this game's enduring reputation.

Is one of those /shmupg/ autists on the loose again?

>>12506240
That part. Why were euro games such shit back then?

>>12506330
You think maybe most of those publishers didn't have Konami or Namco's bucks?

>zoomer garbage thread #15897124984283763890
where is the moderation?

>everything OP says is correct
>only response is autistic screeching
I can only imagine the type of braindead retard who enjoys the combination of the worst implementation imaginable of two of the worst genres.

Streets of Rage released a year later and is like 50x better than this turd.

>oh boy do I love killing 500 copy-pasted goons just to mash A thousands of times to sift through endless text boxes just to consume one of 100 random bullshit items that I have no idea what it does with nonsensical balance and pricing sold in the copy-pasted town that looks identical to the last one

>>12506242
Reminder that moot called Australians the worst fucking posters on the entire website(also he got raped)

>>12506540
As opposed to the ZX Spectrum game where you walk around a 200 room maze looking for keys and die endless bullshit deaths because the controls are godawful?

the GBA version is actually pretty cool with all the customization it has
I much prefer it over the original

>>12507838
and then the game crashes because of a bug they missed and the publisher sends you an instruction to type POKE 42329,12 before starting the game to patch it

>>12507839
i especially like the hidden mechanic where you earn reputation points depending on how you fight, which leads to you being able to recruit some of the bosses to join you in your journey

>>12507827
Well surely luggage lad must know better than anyone.

>>12507838
No one mentioned the ZX Spectrum retard. Compare to even other games on the NES

You're supposed to be a kid when you play this game. Yeah it's too shallow and messy for all but the most casual or nostalgic adults. Anyway people who say "trash mobs" are retards.

>>12510089
even as kids we knew that games like TMNT were purposely designed by sadists to cause you pain and suffering

>>12510089
Explain why trash mob is a bad term. Fodder, ads, mooks, whatever you want to call them, same shit, just disposable copy-pasted braindead shit

>>12506296
I am sure Technos inspired "little fighter" series of games of the era. Wong, I'm paraphrasing, said he liked the Nintendo games where a bunch of little fighters were on the screen and you had to clear them out.
>>12506323
There were plenty of nobody's that made good games, in US and Asia. There were like 3 euros.

>>12506296
eh, the fact the series has endured long before and since while spawning many imitators means there really are people who like it over final fight based beltscrollers
if anything it's everything copying sor over final fight that vexes me more

>>12510131
SoR is the only beat em up that isn't excruciatingly boring and doesn't just feel like a fighting game training mode

>>12510131
Oh of course people like that, not denying that. I just think that, at least in the West, the online culture of the early 2000s helped grow and maintain its relevancy. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the people who worked on River City Girls were first exposed to the game thanks to said 2000s internet culture.

>>12510138
all the combo based belt action games besides fight n rage are more closely aligned to sor even if they end up converging onto avp design elements. even sor4 just became a combo and chain focused game with a slug 3 runtime

>>12508178
>No one mentioned the ZX Spectrum retard.
and ?
cope

Yeah it’s a punishable crime to make a beat em up with upgrades and a lot of moves and weapons and bosses and a story and shops. Everyone knows the genre peaked with Konami’s The Simpsons.

RCR really does suck, though it has a style and sense of humor that's very unique to it that lures in players into thinking they're playing a good game.

Nekketsu Fighting Legend is the only good RCR game from that Famicom era and I recommend it to even the biggest River City skeptics.

>lures in players into thinking they're playing a good game.
I was lured into thinking it was a good game by playing it and having fun. Man, I'm glad you came along to tell me I was wrong!
