This is why Sega needs to release an Arcade Hits Collection. There are so many of their arcade games that never received a home release.

The first time Death Adder dies, his voice line "Daaayyyuummm" is sampled from Raphael's frustration from Casey Jones escaping in the first Turtles movie. The second time he dies when he falls off with Gilius, his scream is sampled from the policeofficer that falls to his death from the helicopter in Rambo: First Blood. Funny how they used those sounds :)

They are struggling with the Ages games. No wonder, they are releasing the old games over an over again. Virtua Racing and the original Columns 2 (which only was released on the Saturn after the Arcace-Version). Rumors say SEGA is unable to port Revenge of Death Adder because there are no more intact cabinets in their posessions to extract the data. And with data, they seem to have problem to port this with music and sound effects.

Genuinely baffling this year marks the very first time it's being officially released outside of arcades.. 1 Up Cabinet is nice, but this seriously needs a digital release (Or a physical in a Golden Axe Collection would be beyond measure!) on modern platforms to really make it available to the largest audience possible! A must play for all that's for certain. Thanks Again, SLX!!

This was THE best side-scrolling beat 'em up I of its time. I remember playing this and learning the ropes enough so I could complete the game with 1 credit. I only played as Trix, who was the most unique character in my opinion as his magic "attack" was actually healing. The Switch has been getting some great less-known arcade games of the era, e.g. In The Hunt, so Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death-Adder would be perfect!

One slight correction. The magic does have levels. For instance If you do Stern’s Max level magic. You get a light cut scene of a baddie face being fried to a crisp by the fire. With three thick waves of fire Instead of 1. Otherwise. Salute for unearthing this classic.

Golden Axe The Revenge of Death Adder hardly saw the light at local arcades from where I'm from, I only got a chance to play it once maybe twice in my teens due to the rarity in arcades. If this game never made it to the Saturn at least it should've been ported to the Dreamcast definitely would've been perfect for the Dreamcast since the console already has 4 control ports for 4 player co-op.

While I would have wanted it on the old school systems back in the day, I honestly could care less to have it on the Ni tendo Switch or otherwise, out of it natural arcade habitat. Arcade cab is the way to experience Golden Axe by miles for sure!

Your review on this also makes me reminesce the first time i laid eyes on this masterpiece heck even the first time i played golden axe...what an experience but ill leave that one to the side. That said this is one heck of a crypto-masterpiece i had NO friggin clue this existed and that late afternoon many years ago that i happen to stumble upon it while searching videos for good mame games on youtube i was SHOCKED i just couldnt believe my eyes LITTERALY i was also stunned by the year of its release the first game that looks primitive compared to this had only been out 3-4 years earlier..i just couldnt believe that. I can only imagine the feeling of walking as a kid in 1992 in an arcade place and seeing and playing this all the while comparing its graphical power with your sega genesis or snes bk at home MINDBLOWING! Mame is a treasure and im lucky to have it as many others do but rly no port of this SEGA...? Im confused probably a copyright issue or smth entirely else i guess we'll never know the reason but it rly is a crime for this not to have been ported anywhere. PS: i'll take it up a notch and say this imagine this game its style and art upscaled for a dreamcast release...holy fuckballs now that would ve been awesome.

This and the original were the best in the series for me. Poor Gilius. He was my main in the 2 home console games released. Too bad in GA3 (my least favorite in the series) they didn't have a character similar to Gilius playable. While he wasn't technically playable in physical attacks but magic in this, the fact that he was the hero that saved the day and ended the reign of Death Adder was symbolic. This is probably my favorite arcade of all time with the visuals, characters, music, mounts, multiple paths, character abilities and 4 players. This is a must.

I just beat this with my 11 year old son at Galloping Ghost Arcade tonight. Can't say how epic that was. Thank God for free play and unlimited continues. Not that it was all that hard especially with two players but they definitely load on the enemies on the later levels. Would've cost a pretty penny if I was shoveling in quarters. Either way such a great game! I was Dora btw. Love her back kick

It's cheaper, quicker, and less effort is involved. Either that or their arcade titles aren't as popular due to them not being in too many arcades. Either way now is the perfect time to bring them back and let everyone play them.

@@zylowolf7919 I agree with genesis emulations being quicker and easier to carry over to systems...but saying sega arcades weren't in many places is absolute insanity. Back in the 80's or 90's I couldn't go into an arcade without seeing Sega titles. Hell even some places around here like pizza huts had a random virtua fighter 1, virtua fighter 2, etc.

Fantastic game. I did a play through on my channel using Mame. Such a shame this game never got a Saturn release, or even a Dreamcast release. With all of the Sega compilations that have come out over the recent years, this would have been a great addition. I really feel for those that own this PCB, though...like Game Sack Joe. With that well known issue, this REALLY needs to get a home port on the current gen systems.

I always thought Death Adder's "DAMN!!!" sounded like Raphael's from the 1990 movie. Could they have actually lifted it directly, lowered the pitch, and used it in the game? Go back and rewatch the scene where Raph is chasing (and loses) Casey Jones. The camera shifts to a wide view of the city and you hear Raph scream "DAMN!!!!" in frustration.

There are many of those cabinets. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind reviewing such, if they were crowd funded. The majority of the content that he records, are from his own personal purchases. Of course games like this are emulated but, the hardware and all the console content are from personal ownership. Without help, you can literally go broke doing this.

Dear Sega Lord X: "Arcade 1UP review? Yes, please do!" is what I'd want to say. But I also know that they are a little bit on the costly side, so as long as you don't break your bank, go ahead :). Also, there's the size of that thing, so make sure you have the space for it. Finally, I've also read and heard that Arcade 1UP has had buld quality issues on some of their machines, though they are improving that aspect recently. You'd want to make sure that your shiny, new arcade cabinet is up to your standards. Well, just mumbling some shenanigans of mine. Have a good one!

It's really a shame this game never came out on consoles. It would have been great to see this on the Saturn or Dreamcast,or even the Sega Cd. Playing 4 player is a lot of fun. It's a far better game than the PS3/360 game from awhile back.

I found out about this game as a side note of an article about the mega drive golden axe series, 10 years ago. There and rhen I checked it on mame and was dumbstruck with the quality. To this day I can't understand why it's so obscure. It's one of the best games of the genre I played. My only complaint is that we don't have Thunderhead and Tryis Flare
