It took me many years to finally get to beat this game. I have been on a kick with purchasing NES games as part of reliving my child hood and this title was one that needed to be gotten.
The game is a little bit short and has little to no replay value but the mini games are pretty cool. If you can get it cheap and you are a true collector of NES games I would recommend it as long as you know what you are getting. Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned. I wanted the box the game was with like the picture showed not just the game.

The cartridge then goes into a psychedelic freakout mode while it randomizes the tarot cards. After laying them out on a black screen as slowly as possible, it turns them over one by one in order to explain them to you in the hopes that it starts to make sense in regards to your question.
Arch Rivals featured a cartoonish style and 2-on-2 action. You picked your team from a group of one-named characters like Mohawk, Blade, Moose, and Lewis.
To stop your opponent from scoring you were allowed to punch the opposing player, causing him to drop the ball. You were also able to pants your opponent for a steal. Additionally, snacks and drinks would be thrown from the stands and wind up on the floor, causing your player to slip and lose control unless you avoided them. And even the referee would occasionally get in the way and cause your player to trip.
In an effort to look cute but really it just slowed down the action there was a cut to an animation after every single basket made-- either to one of the coaches, one of the cheerleaders, or to the ref. Do you remember a game where you could both surf and skate that featured a cat in a suit and a guy wearing a tiki mask?
The game was divided up into two games, essentially. For skating, you could choose between Joe Cool a cool guy with a pompadour and Tiki Man a cool guy with a tiki face. For surfing, you could choose between Thrilla Gorilla a cool gorilla with sunglasses and Kool Kat a cool cat in a suit. In the skating portion you earned points by doing tricks off ramps, grinding rails, and collecting coins; all of which added to your time allotted to cross the finish line.
In the surfing portion, you were awarded points for doing tricks and you basically just had to stay on the board and out of the curl of the wave for long enough to end the level. Abadox: The Deadly Inner War is a side-scrolling shooter where you blast your way through levels that look like H. Giger threw up uncooked hamburger meat, and the first boss is a giant face with detached eyeballs wriggling around in space.
Qix was an old port from a arcade game. It was a puzzle game about containing what looked like an escaped Microsoft Windows screensaver.
Xevious is another old arcade port and is just a very standard top-down shooter. Xexyz is maybe the most random side-scrolling action game ever and features a flying robot walrus, a giant naked bathing woman, and a fight against a Buddha statue.
The game with perhaps the most enduring legacy of any on this list is the wildly inventive A Boy and His Blob. The game was a platforming puzzle game in which you controlled a young boy who is followed around by an adorable alien blob. The way to solve the puzzles and progress in the game is to feed the blob different-flavored jelly beans. Each flavor causes the blob to transform into a different item that the boy is then able to interact with: a ladder, an umbrella, a trampoline, a blow torch, etc.
The puzzles were largely well-thought out and required a combination of experimentation and precise positioning. At the time, a bonus stage to wrestle with cattle on the beach was a hot topic. The "Arcade Archives" series has faithfully reproduced many classic Arcade masterpieces.
Players can change various game settings such as game difficulty, and also reproduce the atmosphere of arcade display settings at that time. Players can also compete against each other from all over the world with their high scores. You have to actually pin your opponent.
All right, all right, all right. Before you jump down to the comments to flame me, let me explain. Everything involved with Street Fighter: The Movie is laughable, including the fact that they made a mediocre fighting game based on a movie based on a legendary fighting game.
The Street Fighter: The Movie ports had that going on too, to a lesser extent. Not only did they introduce the live-action Akuma into the story, but they claimed that Gunloc from Saturday Night Slam Masters was secretly undercover as M.
Bring back that goofball universe for another go. I want to see what Gill would be like. How off-base could they make Dudley? Or even Rufus? Holy hell, the possibilities are endless. Eternal Champions is next to Killer Instinct in terms of games that were kind of a huge deal for a short burst after they came out, but then vanished for years, never to be heard from again. The game had a pretty kickass story where the Eternal Champion picked victims from across history who would have been great forces for good had they not been tragically killed.
In order to help bring balance to the timeline, one of them would get the right to relive their final moments and change the course of history. How would that be decided? A horrible bloodsport tournament. God forbid two completely different games exist under the same company.
The characters felt bigger and more grounded. It felt more like a 2D version of Tekken Tag in a way. The game was super fun. I love the designs because instead of making everything all futuristic, characters are mostly just either dystopian or extra gaudy.
It gives us supervillain King Lion, who has the triple threat of body armor, boxing gloves, and a giant sword. Why not? Maybe in the future looking like a cross between Dr. Doom and Strong Bad is considered threatening.
