Pretty weird and innovative Data East shooter!

I just downloaded this arcade game on the Nintendo Switch. It's short but insane, fun, and badass. It's the Running Man and Smash TV combined into a dangerous pinball event!

In terms of art direction, use of colour, imagination, animation, SFX, music, the wild varied environments(Ok, practically everything. lol) etc etc, Nitro Ball totally spanks Xeno Crisis. I just wish NB had a bit more meat to the game play, but it's still a good time, if a bit on the easy side. Really embodies the early 90's and just how amazing and fun pop culture was back then. Nitro Ball, Night Slashers and 'maybe' Joe & Mac Cave man Ninja are probably the best Johnny Turbo has to offer on Switch. Too bad the image is so soft and there's no way to reduce the screen size, which would of been great for people gaming on larger 65" TV's like me.

This soundtrack needs the Tee Lopes treatment

Smash TV meets Marble Madness! Weird. I never even heard of this game until today.

When you thought you’ve seen all the crazy arcade games,this pops up!!!! Looks like a mix of Smash T.V with Ikari Warriors or something. There’s always treasure to be found in our youth years. Thanks for the upload!!🥲

[@teddychu1177]

With some Pinball elements :D

[@SolCresta3405]

When pinball meets run and gun.

[@raycat3764]

And I thought I have seen every weird unique game...Data East sure was something.

[@candykatkittylichiousisthebomb]

That summarizing blurb at the start was very helpful and out of the ordinary.

[@J-D-P]

This is such a good game.

[@TheTiltblazin]

This game looks so awesome! No lagging or delays. Smooth gameplay movement!

[@DamoclesAlpha]

I wouldn't be surprised if that Ghost Town level was a deliberate shout-out to Data East's earlier The Real Ghostbusters/Meikyuu Hunter G arcade game.

[@elijahvincent985]

Take Pinball, Smash TV, Football and anything space-related, and this is the EPIC result.

戦場の狼2+ピンボールか。

How do I block these longer than usual video thumbnails from showing up in my subscriptions feed? Is there a way to force everything to the normal sized thumbnails, or do I need to totally unsubscribe?

[@XanthinZarda]

3 dots, "hide".

[@michikelet7212]

Man I love these HUGE thumbnails!!!! 😃

[@Amonimus]

That's a complaint to youtube's UI designer
