Arcade Games Of the 90's - Part 1: 1990

[@wolverineiscool7161]

The best era ever, so glad to have been a 90s kid

[@lukegarrett820]

I love how the "80's" still reigned in the early 90's arcade games. The music of any game from 1990 to 1993 still had that 80's sound going for it. You can notice the transition in some games. X-Men, Night Slashers and one called Violent Storm had music that sounded 80's and 90's.

Thank you this reminds me a lot of the best moments of my childhood

[@randy7894]

1990 was a good year for arcade gaming. Treasure after treasure. And thanks for making these video's! Very much appriciated.

[@ReydelSans]

15:22 fun fact: aside from appearing on his own game, sonic first debut as a car key chain in rad mobile

[@CoolsBreeze]

Some people always say that arcade of the 80s was the golden age but I think the 90s arcades were the golden age since graphics had improved so much and there were so many good arcade games.

[@bm123178]

Thx I saw some of my teen year games. Brought back some arcade memories and also been looking for the name of few will check part 2 out well done.

[@hotdoggington6962]

Some real all-time classics in this one. Pigskin 621AD is maybe my personal favorite arcade game ever

[@MrNastyBlasty]

They were not just games but parts of our lives and childhood, remarkable and unforgettable memories. What an amazing channel you have friend, will keep my eyes out for your future post and content as I absolutely adore the retro games although I play the modern ones nowadays. Let’s keep them alive. Have a good week ahead.

[@jiraiya0698]

Great Videos, I can´t wait for you guys to reach the late 90´s and early 2000. I remember a lot of games from that era that I never have seen again. Mostly running in Naomi.

[@didyoubot]

I just love the colour palette of pixel graphics. It looks so realistic way back then.

[@chiissu]

Good stuff. I knew 8 of these and another 19 of these I knew of but not that it was in the arcades. Keep up the good work. I check your channel every few days or so to see if you put out another of these.

[@MrLarrythehacker]

I can see why classic arcade enthusiasts prefer the games of the 70s and 80s compared to the 90s onward. The 'golden age of video games' as it was called were more about puzzles and figuring things out while here it's mostly about fighting and shooting. To me most games look very similar to each other so I can definitely see how the industry got oversaturated and went on the decline.

[@GaryRetroGamer]

So...this channel has a series - currently in progress - outlining the arcade games of the 80s. If you watch it - you will realize that the early 80s were *far worse* for games "looking very similar to each other". Also, historically, the industry over-saturation and decline happened in the 80s. Arcades had peaked and busted by the mid-80s.

[@MSTerMegane67]

Great list! Looking forward to Part 2!

[@zphoenix2922]

Once again great video gary

[@ScaryGarrySG1]

Complete with the 1990's hit "I got the power!"

[@Caparzoshow]

Thank you for doing this dog im discovering lots of new games thanks to this lists 😃

[@GaryRetroGamer]

Thanks! This channel is also working through the arcades! So another decade to be completed. Keep watching!

[@marcelotorricomendez7723]

this is so beautiful!.

[@HypercatZ]

3:00 When you could do antics like that without any serious backlash.

[@sonicmania9993]

Great Steamkey Gary, thanks! It's top-down twin-stick dystopian police game JYDGE, made by the Neon Chrome devs 10guns. Slick action, and I like the world-painting... As for this video, wow wow wow. I'll be watching again and again, and look forward to the continuing series. I've swung back to preferring short-play, arcade-style games in the last few years -- too busy with kids/life to play a 60-hour RPG, or to put in the time to "get gud" at the best challenging modern action games with their exhausting campaigns. How great would it be to have a 90's arcade around the corner with these games in them?

[@ambushbugz]

I love this idea of era gaming video!!!!

[@mariogarv]

7:15 the guy on the left looks like Supaiman from Akira Toriyama´s manga "DR.Slump"

[@dimitrispitarakis1051]

[@_devik]

[@ROMBomb001]

Mercs and Raiden are missing 😥, otherwise great list! Thank you for your hard work.

[@GaryRetroGamer]

Hey, thank you for the kind words! Indeed, those two are missing - as well as a quite a few others. We'll be "revisiting" this chapter and re-issuing an updated version in the future - which will definitely include those titles!

[@ROMBomb001]

@@GaryRetroGamer Very cool to hear! I look forward to it :)

[@billcook4768]

So much goodness.

[@filiberto9729]

Buen vídeo Gary 😁

[@allenofblacksteel9169]

looking for an old certain game. I remember it just similar to ninja gaiden or castleveinia in term of gameplay. The game have a stage that is when you reach to a certain map you will see the whole background of the map is black. the entire map have lot of giant iron bar maybe the color of the iron bar is white. It's like a giant prison because behind the those iron bar is the princess stuck and imprison behind the bar. when you reach at the end of that prison map you will see princess behind the bar and a boss ready to fight you. I don't remember if defeat the boss will rescue the princess behind those giant iron bar. the princess size is just as big as the character player control. Anyone of think of?

[@gus5117]

Nice selection

[@shionkreth7536]

[@CrazyFriendlyGamerAlex]

Great list, Gary! Can't comment more due to being lazy and also reason why I don't upload lately and watch many vidsXD

[@krisortiz1563]

Does anyone remember the name of an arcade game where it was full screen armored fighters with weapons and you attack high low and mid and you can break armor and chop limbs and cut heads off. I played it at Davis month Air Force base outside of the px when I was like 12. I can’t remember the name

[@GaryRetroGamer]

Crossed Swords on the Neo Geo system.

[@Tigerlord4835]

I would think Taito Gladiator

[@windyearle]

Are you doing one of these per year for every year of the 90s?? So 1000+ games?!

[@GaryRetroGamer]

15:25 What is that sonic doll doing in a 1990 game when the first sonic game wasn´t released until 1991 !? unless this game shouldn´t be in the list at all?

[@GaryRetroGamer]

"Sonic's first shown appearance in a video game was in the 1991 arcade racing game Rad Mobile, as a decorative ornament hanging from a rearview mirror" -- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(character)
