(Arcade) Renegade - Completed 1 Credit, 1CC / 2 Loops Clear 1080p60

[@DoomedEtiquette]

Renegade is a hard game. You made it look easy. Very nicely played. And great appeal after finishing each stage !!

[@thedarksideoftheforce6658]

Trick is to stay moving and not let them get you into a headlock. Jump kick as much as you can and back kicks are good also.

[@xoacatl]

It really is! Farthest I made it was to the female boss. In Chicago my cousin and his friends called her Big Bertha... The Nintendo version was a good play

[@chanceForNotBeingRapper]

no expection that in nes ver you fight a final boss with guns barehand like an early Konami arcade game did unfairly and resets you to the beginning of the game, and the arcade ver has one hit kill knife guys which resembles the reality😂 super hard game, even the nes version has a fucking maze in the final level to increase the gameplay length, the motorbike stage is decent but the overall game is super primitive and hard except the scene design is good

[@johnko2455]

Oh God, this brings back memories from like over 35 years ago......

[@TheChoujinVirus]

fun fact: this game is a predecessor to Double Dragon, also it's a prequel to the River City series

[@jamierose9095]

The first game in the Kunio-Kun series. How the westernized version relates to River City Ransom and its sequels is up for debate.

[@MrLtia1234]

@@jamierose9095 This westernised version also has two home computer sequels, which aren't Kunio Kun sequels, just to confuse things!

[@emerliss962]

Remember when this came out at local arcade wouid have a row of quarters up ppl waiting their turn- was prob 2 weeks solid that everyone lost to Bertha / Then finally someone figured out to get her running at you was the trick. After figured that out rest wasn’t bad but still 35 years later I remember those couple weeks nobody could beat her!

Thanks for the cool vid. The final stage kicks my ass (darn 1 hit kills!) but the way you weave and manipulate the third boss' movements helped a ton to beat her.

[@Pete_Hahn]

Thank you very much, glad the video was useful to you. Yeah - on level 4, the one hit kills really spikes the difficulty!

[@truemperahzentertainment6133]

River City Girls she's impossible as the first boss though Japanese Lizzo I call her!

[@osculim]

Damn this game frustrated the crap outa me back in the 80s. It was hard. Im sure it was always set to its highest difficulty at the shop where we used to play it.

[@xtraplayer7281]

There was only 1 game setting on this. Hard ! I dont think i ever beat that last boss with gun.

[@DjTractus]

I loved how the knee in the balls attack sounded like a shart.

[@el_benja]

The way to throw punches, the way the characters fall to the floor… it’s Double Dragon without any doubt

[@Pete_Hahn]

for sure, this game laid the groundwork for double dragon as it's from the same company (Technos Japan).

[@crokkadoodledoo9956]

funny how licensing works. would of loved to seen this same game and graphics with the Warriors movie characters and plot.

[@Hotshotter3000]

You done good Pete! I wanted to break this one and get 3 loops done. Let's see how difficult the 3rd loop is.

[@Pete_Hahn]

Thanks! It's a definitely harder, mostly because they throw more enemies at you in a couple stages (1 more biker in level 2, for example) and also the bosses have more health. The timer becomes the single greatest threat at that point; You almost have to speed-kill all the regular enemies just to have a chance at beating the boss with enough time.

0:33 What my mom does when she finds out I got a terrible grade. 2:42 What an American tourist does in the usual way when arriving at a hotel in Cancun, after staying, leaving his suitcases, and putting on his bathing suit.

[@aaronjones3504]

That second stage soundtrack is wonderful

[@Pete_Hahn]

I think the whole OST is pretty good, 2nd stage is nice and so is the 2nd part of the final stage when you're fighting the knife wielders and final boss.

[@doctorx2105]

​@@Pete_Hahn I'm most partial to stage 3. I still whistle 3 and 4 while driving!

Both great games!

[@kadad5288]

[@Khaos969]

Target Renegade the two player sequel was the best

[@weehuge]

Loved this game but it was so hard! Kicking the guys off the subway platform/pier on Level 1/2 got rid of them far quicker. Played it for months before I realised that when you were kneeing someone you could then throw them over your shoulder. The annoying part was when you were fighting one guy on level 4 or 5, all it took was one of his buddies to stab you and you were done. Grrr!

[@Pete_Hahn]

very nice, 4 times through is crazy good!

[@jonathanlegthigh8264]

@@Pete_Hahn 417,000 last night. I should record these. But then, where would I submit the video and score? What's the official high score leaderboard for MAME games? BTW, what do you use to record your game? How do you do it?

[@Pete_Hahn]

@@jonathanlegthigh8264 There's a couple places you could submit it, and they have each have pros and cons. But, almost all places that verify emulator scores require you to use an anti-cheat version of mame called "WolfMame". It can be downloaded from MARP (Mame Action Replay Page), linked here: replay.marpirc.net/ Get the latest version of this, and then you have to record an INP (input) file which is your proof that you upload to the site you're submitting to. Recording an INP file isn't very straight-forward; the newer versions of WolfMame have a built in tool in the GUI, and in older version you'd have to use a command line prompt. There's a few tutorial videos out there, I made an old one years ago for the command line versions: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpPScmewo5mGeMk Once you are done playing after recording an INP, you simply zip the file by right-clicking on it > send to > compressed (zipped) folder. That file gets uploaded to MARP or Twin Galaxies, the 2 sites that I know of that track emulator scores. I could go on about the pros and cons of each choice - MARP's website looks like it was last updated when MySpace was new, and Twin Galaxies requires you to participate in adjudicating others submission to submit your own (1st one is a freebie, I think). First step is get set up with WolfMame, and take it from there...Good luck and happy gaming! 💪

Console version with the female gang boss. You can jump kick her when she runs she automatically shoulder bumps you and it's invincible. Only back kicks work. Arcade version you can jump kick her and she doesn't shoulder bump you.

[@Pete_Hahn]

cool, that's good to know if I try to beat the NES version one day. 👍

[@doctorx2105]

They probably requested that when they realized the arcade kids had gotten wise

[@holden6104]

So many titles on the ps4. I got this, mat mania, double dragon 1&2, sunset riders and many other .25 cent arcades.

[@jonpon69]

Big Bertha 😉

[@iwantagoodnameplease]

I can't even do one level, let alone 3.75 complete loops. Do you know if the slowdown at the start of the levels is just on emulators, or a "feature" of the original cabinet version?

[@Pete_Hahn]

the arcade board also has slowdown, especially the motorcycle stage

[@alejandromanjarrez1563]

It plays just like the arcade DD2. Renegade is a historically strange game; it's a direct prequel to River City Ramson, the prototype for DD, a spiritual prequel to Combatribles, and it also acts as a Rip Off of Warriors, long before there was a Warriors game.

[@Pete_Hahn]

you summed the game up really well! I honestly feel like it plays better than double dragon, way too much slowdown in that game. Maybe I should give it another chance, given how iconic it is...

[@bluecoolboy4755]

Renegade is the american version of kunio kun

[@figment1988]

That's what it all boils down to. As for Mr. K and Jack's outfits, it's obvious they were modeled after the 1979 movie The Warriors

[@jessragan6714]

That last boss could kill you with one shot in the NES game. I suppose it's the same way here? That's kind of crap considering that you only start with one life.

[@Pete_Hahn]

Yes, the gun shot from the last boss kills you in one hit. So do the knife strikes from his minions, unfortunately.

[@leroyvisiongames2294]

Yup, final can one-shot you here too, except in the arcade version the enemies on mission 4 can also 1-hit KO you with the business end of their ice pick. Also, I have no idea why they start you with only one life in this version; perhaps it’s because the game is so short? The NES version is longer and gives you the standard 3 lives, so that would make sense.......
