10 More ARCADE GAMES - Hidden Gems for MAME

[@MetalJesusRocks]

APOLOGIES to Jimmy for saying his KZbin channel wrong in the intro. That was take #7 of doing the intro & neither of us noticed. It's supposed to be: LotsOFGames ;)

[@COLOFIDUTI]

hey man! luv your channel! can you do a video on a raspberry pi arcade build ?id like to hear your take on that! cheers from Brasil!!!!!!!!!!

[@misscozygamer6555]

Willian monteiro pires i would like a vid about this 2 as im debating wether to build a basic set up then upgrade as i go x

[@lotsofgames]

Hey no worries! I am just glad we were finally able to get that intro finished. :D

[@crashfrog3051]

I recommend the RetroPi 100%, the magic is in the micro-SD card, get a good one with lots of space (64 GB+) and you'll be set :)

[@delatroy]

Very nice recommendations

[@lotsofgames]

I had so much fun doing this video. Growing up I loved going to the arcades with my friends. My love for arcade games is still strong. Thanks to everyone for watching and thanks to Metal Jesus for the opportunity to talk about some of my favorite arcade titles!

[@MetalJesusRocks]

JIMMY!!

[@julianmarquez8471]

jimmy

[@mrtoon6115]

lotsofgames zero team rocks!!!

[@Menleah]

Rad video! Made me want to look in to MAME again.

[@RetroreviewsPlus]

i played the game you call Light Bringer and love it....but here it was called Dungeon Magic

[@gindrinker69]

i really like this dude. he talks about games like hes genuinely a fan who wants to spread his passion for the medium. hope he becomes a regular guest

[@hectorabercrombie2615]

Here is a idea. How about getting the whole Metal Jesus crew together (Specially Reggie) and have a jeopardy like show but about everything retro games. You can have John Hancock be the host and the winner can win like a gold plated console. You can have this game every year. What you guys think.

[@squigin3380]

Hektor Abercrombie awesome ideal

[@derdingobaron]

Drunken Master Paul should be the host, but other than that, good idea!

[@hectorabercrombie2615]

I don't know about that. John Hancock will win every time. We need to keep this fair. Plus imaging seeing him in a suit.

[@derdingobaron]

Then don't invite him as a guest every time. DMP would clearly be the more entertaining host!

[@hectorabercrombie2615]

Reggie is AWESOME!

[@Shadowist]

This is an incredible list of games. I want to play every single one right now! I have a booked weekend for sure

[@MetalJesusRocks]

So glad you enjoyed the video!

[@lotsofgames]

Have a great weekend! :D

[@ThunderFist1978]

I've played a few of these at the Galloping Ghost Arcade in Brookfield, IL, like Ninja Baseball Batman, Mystic Warriors, which really grew on me during my last visit, and Wild West Cowboys of Moo Mesa. I love that you guys like that game so much!

[@Boragon77]

Hands down my favorite game was Black Tiger. My friends and I got so good at it, we could finish the game with one quarter without dying. My dad had an arcade while I was growing up and one of the first games I remember was Exerion. Also one of the last cabs he had was St. Dragon. But I could go on and on.

[@lawrencebishop7801]

No please, Go on!

[@flottenheimer]

Yes! Black Tiger is amazing. Loooove the gfx.

[@DailyFunFacts]

great list of games! I really liked the metal slug lookalike game 😊

[@MrKmika7e]

Do more mame hidden gems. Arcade is the best source to discover them, since its ingent catalog.

[@richardbenson1161]

The Punisher arcade game (1993) is absolutely not to be missed by fans of beat-em-ups.

[@OjoRojo40]

Quite mainstream really, like Cadillacs and Dinosaurs.

[@tokenblack7983]

OjoRojo40 yeah it's well know. Great game though

[@UnbrokenSoftwareLLC]

Thank you Metal Jesus and Jimmy! You guys are stellar guys; your support and shout outs are invaluable, so THANK YOU. If anyone has any questions or needs any help with LaunchBox, hit us up here and we'll answer them for you! :)

[@lotsofgames]

So glad I got the chance to share my love for the LaunchBox app. I appreciate all of the hard work that the LaunchBox team does!

[@UnbrokenSoftwareLLC]

Thank you Jimmy! We're just ecstatic to be able to keep doing what we love doing, and we owe that to the entire community. :)

[@Spacemutiny]

LaunchBox I just bought it and I'm loving it!

[@UnbrokenSoftwareLLC]

That is awesome to hear Anthony!!! Thank you sir. :)

[@GamingPalOllieMK]

I played Mystic Warriors as a kid once at some arcade, fell in love and never found it again, so glad you guys included it in this video, awesome awesome game. Also Cow Boys was one of my favorite games at the arcades, but at least that was always there to play :)

[@The_RadicalOne]

No Super Battletoads Jason? Unforgivable!

[@TG_Sponge]

Hi

[@broganheller3085]

Radical Reggie that game is awsome

[@MetalJesusRocks]

Reggie, sounds like you are offering to help with the NEXT Arcade Hidden Gems video!?

[@broganheller3085]

MetalJesusRocks that vid would be godly

[@prowlwrestling695]

Reggie's going rogue hehehe

[@1982tjones]

@MetalJesusRocks and Game Sack are the only channels I see that cover a lot of these great arcade games that I might have seen a couple of times as a child but could never find again. Best Channels on KZbin!

[@themrnails]

Awesome games on this list I never knew about. Thanks! More MAME gems videos, please. Thanks for the video!

[@CalebMichaelRiley]

Ok, this was a good idea for a video! There are so many Arcade games out there that most people, including myself, never got a chance to play. Kudos!

[@VHSMassacre]

Thanks guys! We were playing Light Bringer and it was a ton of fun. More in depth than your average beat-em up.

[@MrTonyoftheDead]

I would honestly play every one of those games! They all look like so much fun!!! Thanks for the video guys! Also Jimmy has a great channel, I'm glad I'm subscribed to him!

[@TrencejGaming]

I still cannot get over the fact that, As a Hardcore Collector/Player, you have a TFT and A generic off the shelf joystick in your Cab. There are so many Cabs out there, with just the minimum of work, can be bought back to life and Mamed, and the games will look so much better on a 15hz CRT. My Current cab is an absolutely beautiful old Virtua Fighter 3 Cab with a 28inch CRT.

[@Peppiinait]

I don't think I've ever come across a more Indiana Jones-like game than The Cliffhanger that's actually not branded as such. Great episode. More arcade games, please.

[@eric4133]

Thanks for the video The Cliffhanger Edward Randy, Elevator Action Returns and Zero Team will be added to my Mame arcade machine. Some suggestions for less well known games are: Night Slashers, Martial Masters, Deathsmiles and Daraku Tenshi: The Fallen Angels.

[@Calymos]

man, you're my favourite youtuber, Metal Jesus. if I ever move to Seattle, I seriously wanna game with you.

[@SalDOWN]

HOLY FUCK!!! Zero team... I have been trying to find the name of this game for over two decades... We played this game all days, months. I have to reinstal MAME now, I can't belive it. One of the very best!!! Thank you sooo MUCH! (^__^)

[@jamiet.653]

If anyone's in the Chicago area, stop by the Galloping Ghost Arcade. It has five of the ten games: Ninja Baseball Bat Man, The Cliffhanger Edward Randy, Elevator Action Returns, Mars Matrix and Wild West Cow Boys of Moo Mesa. Edward Randy is as amazing as it looks.

[@lotsofgames]

Jamie Tibbetts That arcade sounds super rad. If I am ever in that area I am going to spend some serious time there with a huge stack of quarters! 😁

[@jamiet.653]

No need for quarters. $20 gets you unlimited play all day. It rocks. \m/ I'm there every Monday. :)

[@osamaroum]

"mystic warrios" is a great game . "Wild West Cow Boys of Moo Mesa" is just a "sunset raiders" with cartoon charchters .

[@ratedrbeboparcade]

@metalJesusRocks Wow guys huge props for adding (wild west cowboy of moo mesa)

[@mauryj.3415]

I just played ninja baseball batman in the arcade last weak, didn't realize it was a rare cabinet, awesome!

[@TheMadMouth1]

Glad to see Edward Randy getting some recognition.

[@mattb9664]

Thanks for these recommendations! Can’t believe I never stumbled on to Mystic Warrior - awesome soundtrack and game!

[@yoshinatsu]

Love your videos with Jimmy! He's a super chill guy, and he got himself another subscriber a few weeks ago :)

[@johnnyclaimerhaddadin195]

Had an opportunity to try the games you suggested and I’m happy to say that they are all on my arcade retro system. I’m glad I discovered your video. It’s so hard to filter through the thousands of games on my system and I have to say my favorite is that ninja batman game lol. It’s a beautiful game and the gameplay is solid.

[@ChescoYT]

This really is a great slept-on arcade game list, tons here even I never heard of! I'm obsessed with the arcade game 'Toki', wished it was mentioned in the videos.

[@darcyska]

I love how Jimmy describes game mechanics and why we should check them out - very great descriptions!

[@volvoguy804]

S.T.U.N. Runner was so awesome in the arcades. Took me years to remember the title.

[@jonmccown2323]

Wild west cowboys of Moo Mesa is one of my all time favorites.

[@PeterHartman1]

Thank you so much for putting the names in the description! Now I can just watch your video without taking notes! I would love to see the number of players each game supports thrown in somewhere.

[@scottcollins5240]

Data Easts "Gate of Doom" is another good one

[@Fluera]

Metal Jesus you should totally have Jimmy on the channel again, he brought some absolutely fantastic recommendations! Every single one of them look awesome. Thanks for the video! :P

[@TheJay24069]

Realize this video is a little old, but I'm super stoked I found your channel. In the process of building my AIO cabinent and looking for some additions to it. Everyone else recommends the obvious games like Street Fighter, Metal Slug, etc. I love coming to your channel and ALWAYS finding new shit that either myself, my friends, or my family including my four year old daughter will enjoy. Keep up the content mates.

[@NaturalGallantBodybuilding]

Great vid. Looking forward to finding and playing these games!

[@StephenBiggsAdams]

I remember Elevator Action Returns appeared at my local Bowling alley in Burien around '95-'96. Holy cow, it was awesome to see then!

[@xelthos2051]

Light Bringer reminds me a lot of Knight's of the Round. Loved that beat 'em up.

[@androidfleshbot2854]

How can you not like this ... So much talent and glad to hear from the past ! Great content as usual . cheers !

[@colesgunz2]

I built an arcade machine with my Dad and I must say, there are 2 games you use the trackball with that are a LOT OF FUN! They are the most fun to play when you are drinking with friends. One is a bowling game called "World Class Bowling" and a horse shoe game called "Shuuz". They are just hilarious to play with friends and everyone gets so competitive about it!

[@Loftin08]

Nice subject. Arcades have a rich history with massive amounts of games that most of us haven't even heard of. I've got to try these!

[@willywampa84]

Awesome video! I still have a bunch of Moo Mesa action figures back at my parents house from when I was a kid, lol!

[@nokiot9]

My Xbox one has been collecting dust ever since I found MAME. It's awesome.

[@Junker.66]

All bangers! Didn't knew about Ninja Baseball Bat Man having so few cabinets in the US, I'm from the north of Mexico and used to play one at my local arcade, but I think it was a bootleg cabinet. It was one of the small white ones, not the huge 4 player cabinet I've seen online.

[@digitalphil]

Video Quality upgrade? awesome! Metal Jesus always making these vids better!

[@MetalJesusRocks]

Thanks! Shot this at 60fps to match the arcade gameplay better.

[@stonent]

60fps is the best thing to happen to youtube. I will take 720p60 over 1080p30 any day of the week if I had to choose between the two.

[@adamphillip5305]

Nice one MJ, never heard of Light Bringer & Demon Front before, gonna have some fun with those.

[@gamernaut8864]

Great video guys! All of these games look awesome! And the majority of them, I've never seen before. HIDDEN GEMS for sure. I will definitely seek out and acquire each and every one of these games! Must have's. Thanks! Elevator Action Returns reminds me of Flashback somewhat.

[@wackaholic3689]

Absolutely love this channel. Keep up the great work Jason. (Great name by the way)

[@pilgrim666butters]

I played Wild West Cow Boys of Moo Mesa as a kid but never knew the name. Watching this I had that game in mind, great to see it on the list and to putting a name to the game to my memories

[@benamite]

I'm working on my arcade cabinet and I see this pop up in my notifications! What an awesome day!!

[@Tenchi10]

Favorite Arcade game was C.O.W.-boys of Moo Mesa, followed by Simpsons and then X-Men. Lots of quarters.... Lots of time spent playing.. lol Glad you mentioned that game at the end. :)

[@TheDorianTube]

FINALLY someone mentioning Dungeon Magic/Light Bringer. This was my favorite game in the Arcade days (Well, my second favorite. My absolute love will always be War: Final Assault)

[@retrogamingscreenwriter623]

Very cool to watch a vid and learn about games off the beaten path. Never heard of any of these gems. Good job, man!

[@SharifSourour]

Mystic Warriors looks amazing! Thanks for covering all these amazing looking games.

[@derdingobaron]

Man, I played the shit out of Cowboys of Moo Mesa as a kid. It was my favorite arcade game back then. When you mentioned Sunset Riders, I was like "Are they gonna do Cowboys of Moo Mesa?" and I was a little disappointed, but then you redeemed yourself by picking it at the end :)

[@MitsuhashiTakashi]

that car in the cliff hanger makes me think it's a sequel to cliff hanger the lupin the 3rd lazerdisk game weather or not officially or not

[@MoonSpiritChannel]

Love Ninja Baseball Batman and Cowboys from Moo Mesa! Those are some really great arcade games nobody knows about.

[@MarkSchamel]

I discovered your channel recently and really enjoy it. This was another great *gem*.

[@JasonNoxid]

Very awesome selection of arcade games. Elevator Action Returns is awesome!

[@leebumble]

Incredible selection, most of which I've never heard of which is great. I think you need to some more of these arcade hidden gems vids.

[@Aboveup]

Oh shit, Mystic Warriors and Elevator Action Returns. Played those on my channel not too long ago. Fantastic titles.

[@erich1593]

YES! I've been looking for cowboys of moo mesa!!! I played that a lot at my indoor soccer arena as a kid! Man, ive always been wondering what that game was!

[@bardknight]

I loved this video. Some of these games look awesome and I hadn't heard about most of them. Looking forward to trying a few of them.

[@SeekFindPLay]

Great list! I played through NBBM when I visited Galloping Ghost, the bosses in that game are awesome!

[@milkmancow5]

I love this list. I am just getting back into my arcade game collection and I will definitely get some of these.

[@TheHatefulBuddhist]

I used to play Elevator Action Returns all the time at the local CC's Pizza. It's one of my favorites.

[@dannycanfield3038]

Yeah, you're gonna need a part 3 here. Just discovered Biomechanical Toy; it's trippy. And Arabian Fight. Some parallax scrolling or something gives it more dimensions and bags guys jump in from front of screen and Egyptian heiroglyphs peel off the wall and attack. Really cool graphics engine.

[@Phi1981]

And there I was writing the titles down before you mentioned that you put them in the description :) Also: I saw Sub Culture for PC in the background and just bought it again on ebay. Great game!

[@TheCreteDog]

Very good video. You and Jimmy are great together! Keep up the good work.

[@Spacemutiny]

Great video! I recently bought a MAME machine and I am curious to know how people challenge themselves with arcade games since you can just keep continuing. Do you just play through the game for fun? Limit youself to a certain number of continues (in total or per level)?

[@NeoTrggrTheGammer]

Man I love Wild West Cow Boys of Moo Mesa...I remember playing it many years ago at a random family fun center and loving it because I was a huge fan of Konami beat em ups like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Simpsons Arcade game as a kid...one of the first games I played on Mame

[@maddogkilla1]

Hidden gem suggestion,I played this really old school game called Galaga. It was pretty fun, more people definitely need to play it. Awesome retro sounds

[@2bloodyorcs624]

Whats that? my favorite hidden gem is called "pac-man" most people haven't heard about it but it's a pretty unique game.

[@synistawun4201]

I actually covered Cowboys of Moo Mesa for the first time on my Twitch Channel a couple of months ago and I absolutely loved it. I popped so hard right now when I seen it was included on your guys list. Awesome!

[@Trusteft]

1. Demon Front would make a good movie. 2. The Cliffhanger Edward Randy looks like he is fighting the poor relative of Cobra. 3. OMG, Mystic Warriors! I completely forgot about this game. I remember it was one of the last arcade cabinets arrived at the place I mostly went to play them. (soon after, they moved) I wasn't ANY good at it but....or liked it that much....but it has a special place for the reason I mentioned. 4. I don't remember the game Wild West Cow Boys of Moo Mesa, but, I think I have seen the cartoon once. Or was that BraveStarr? Hmm Another great video, thank you for sharing.

[@txcforever]

Love Elevator Action Returns. Glad seeing it being mentioned.

[@mosesh06]

Every Tuesday and Friday: "New metal Jesus!"

[@MetalJesusRocks]

I have risen! ;)

[@travisiswin]

My local CiCi's Pizza had a Wild West C.O.W. Boys of Moo Mesa cabinet that I played every time my parents took us there. I almost cried when I went in one day and it was gone, but they replaced it with a Neo-Geo multi-cab with Metal Slug X and Baseball Stars 2, so that helped.

[@Krystalmyth]

Ninja Baseball Batman can be found in Portland, OR at QuarterWorld on SE Hawthorne BTW.

[@pinfarmer]

I looove landstalker. I'm going to be playing this similar game on my mama cab tonight!

[@jacobphillips8573]

Awesome. I need a newer version of MAME - I don't have any of these games!

[@jasonjmc27]

Dungeons and Dragons Chronicles of Mystara is one I used to play a lot back in the day... lots of fun!

[@davespiros]

i was just watching Cinemassacre live stream Ninja Baseball Bat Man!! Cool video man!

[@jackbessant1936]

Elevator Action Returns is rad as shit! I've got it on Saturn

[@HereForAStorm]

Jack Bessant ... love that game, it's pricey on Saturn, congrats

[@KabukiKid]

I remember seeing Elevator Action Returns in a movie theater lobby once and was also like, "Oh... they made another Elevator Action?" heh

[@FABIOZITO11]

I had it on the ps2,in a collection of Arcade games,it was my favourite of all of them

[@toninhopavan2]

I love tgis videos. I have an arcade cabinet and always find new things here to put on it

[@attilathehun0]

This is the best video yet. Oh yeah the golden era of gaming 16 bit rules!

[@sirreal9691]

Ninja Baseball Batman is the greatest game I would have never known about thank you.

[@ChiknPhil]

Oh, man. I've actually played Ninja Baseball Bat Man in Laughlin,NV at Harrah's way back in 1994 or '95. I loved that game. I need to get a new working MAME to play it again. My last one is way out of date

[@manuparra3283]

I'm proud to say that I played 7 out of those 10 games in my childhood

[@bloodlust935able]

lol that Loot-crate shirt with the skull made out of kittens is still my fav i got

[@rainingthrasher9469]

Awesome video guys! Would love to have a cabinet in my game room! So good for having people over as well.

[@evanbeck4651]

Great video , I played ninja baseball bat man recently at a arcade in Chicago super fun game

[@Marco_Ak]

Wow, I remember Cliffhanger! It was the only game I completed on a coin-op. I played it in co-op with my cousin. Good old times

[@AntAskew]

I need to play some of these at some point! good find!

[@RuairiOTuathail]

Great video. Didn't know any if these except the dream cast one. Thanks!

[@linkmaster6486]

Must be getting old, I fell asleep watching this I was like why the hell am I hearing Metal Jesus in my dreams? 😄

[@argylega]

Not sure how I made it this far in life without knowing about a game where you ski & shoot bad guys at the same time - thanks for righting this wrong. :)
