Great Light Gun Games on Inappropriate Systems | Nostalgia Nerd

[@wraithcadmus]

The two I recall... Operation Wolf - Atari ST: Choppy and unstable (frequent bombs), but complete, and good fun T2 - Amiga: Shockingly good, a bit easier because it just threw less stuff at you, but did also support twin mice, a definite novelty.

[@jackeldogo3952]

I loved Lethal Enforcers (I & II) for the Sega Genesis. It was a blast. We had a 27 inch CRT and would play that game for hours. Playing standing up definitely improved your game rather than sitting on the couch. I also liked playing the T2:The Arcade Game with the Menacer on the Genesis as well.

I think the fact he threw in a Hacienda reference is due to the probably correct assumption that most of the viewers are in the age group that would have any clue what the Hacienda actually was. Also he included a couple of seconds of Blue Monday ,although it's a well known record, it's going to strike a few memory flashes in a certain age group of the generation that would have gone to the Hacienda and heard the record that hit the clubs just before the first rumbles of the Acid House cultural explosion actually appeared ,apparently overnight and suddenly everywhere. Happy, warm, innocent and nostalgic memories of a totally different way of life and interaction between us all.

the master system gun was truly superior to the nes zapper. It actually looked for the scan line giving full acess to the screen rather than crappy sprite flashing.

[@eleanorburns8686]

I must admit, I was rather impressed by T2 on the Master System, but I am easily impressed by parallax effects, and the old black box could do them when it tried. Phaser support might have made it a bit of a classic. Space Gun was indeed a dreary mess, though.

Let's be honest here, Revolution X was a turkey even in the arcades. The only reason it got as much attention as it did was because Aerosmith was in the middle of their 90s renaissance at the time... (In case anyone wondered what exactly happened to them, they've spent the last few years as a Las Vegas residency act - a bunch of planned 50th anniversary stuff was scuttled by the pandemic, and unfortunately the odds of the band touring again are low due to age-related concerns...)

I don't think it's a fair comparison but there you go and of course it doesn't fit your parameters but if you likevthe game it should wash away all of those horrid Revolution X 16-bit interactions...they were terrible. The only way to play it is at an arcade cabinet, PlayStation, and Sega Saturn.

Wow, you have just aided me solving a childhood mistery arcade cabinet! Now I know it was a Taito Space Gun. We occasionally gathered with a few classmates after elementary school classes were over in an old poorly maintained pub nearby. Sipping soft drinks and playing on this kind of cabinet. I don't think it ever was monochrome, but the monitor looked to me like a green phosphor type like our home PC equipped with simple CGA graphics at that time. Now I know that the cabinet was just either malfunctioning (red and blue colors missing) or someone replaced the original color monitor with a green mono one. It was somewhat harder to recognize things on the screen because of this. So in the end it seems someone just being cheap ass on repair and maintenance. :) I don't remember the game controller though. Not even how playable the game was with it.

[@DFX2KX]

The version of that game that I'm familiar with had a big red and blue set of raygun looking ones that where fixed to the cabnet. a button on the side for bombs or something if I can recall? We had one at Nickle World Arcade, and I too was like "oh, THAT game!"

I really miss light gun games, it's just sad that they died out not on their own accord. Home light gun games went out with the demise of the CRT TV, and the Arcade cabinet ones, well, they died with the Arcades. So I honestly don't think that they ever really died out of popularity but instead were a victim of the changing times. As whenever you find one out in the wild somewhere, people are ALWAYS ready and willing to pump in a few quarters. As they kind of went full circle, first only being available in the Arcades, to being in your home, to again only in arcades or wherever you happen to find them. BUT I think we COULD be seeing somewhat of a resurgence of the light gun games, just in a slightly different, but still familiar form. With today's VR technology a lot of on rails shooters have come about and have seen a LOT of success bringing back that same light gun game excitement. Games such as Robo Recall, Space Pirate Trainer and Pistol Whip have seen pretty good popularity, even house of the dead style Zombie shooters like Arizona Sunshine, Death Horizon, Drop Dead Dual Strike and others. So I don't think "light gun" games and on rail shooters completely died out but just waited for the right time to come back swinging, or rather shooting...lol.

The DOS port of Operation Wolf was far and away the best, IMO, I'm surprised you skipped over it. As a child I couldn't distinguish it at all from the arcade version, graphically. Of course, I didn't have a DOS lightgun, but using a trackball to aim the cursor worked significantly better than arrow keys on a keyboard or a controller D-pad.

3:05 "Beg, steal or borrow a copy of this game..." Well, behind the humorous tone of that sentence, there's quite a realistic statement!

Even if you actually went to a store and bought it yourself, since you did that with mommy's or daddy's money, it still falls into the begging category...

[@REBELsst]

I am one of the weird ones that likes Generation X. I loved it in the arcade because the guns were very similar to the T2 guns. so similar in fact they were the T2 guns. Generation X was sold as a conversion kit for the Terminator 2 arcade cabinets. I stupidly bought the Genesis game after getting a Menacer and guess what... it didn't work like T2. while that kills the play-ability for me, it didn't kill my love for the game. Its T2 with cool music and your gun shoots CDs!!! that's pretty cool and i cant imagine a game being any more 90's. Lets also not forget the Pink justifier was only available via mail in offer.

I think teaching bystanders to get out of the way is a good thing. A similar game today would have all the bystanders standing in the way recording video on their phones. I enjoyed this video massively. Though I grew up with the Master System and Mega Drive, I had no idea these dodgy arcade ports existed. I liked Safari Hunt just fine, and it came free with the console. Oh and those concerned senate members and their hearings on videogame violence. I think the best thing they accomplished was to educate old rich white men to the fact that videogames were not solely intended for use by the 12 and under crowd. I know Night Trap has nothing to do with this video, but I thought it was hilarious that most of the objections they had to that game seemed to be based on the mistaken idea that the object of the game was for the player to murder the early 90's jailbait. I may be wrong, but I thought the object was to stop the killer and save the 'innocent' young ladies.

I've never played any of these games in the arcade. I did once watch someone playing T2: the Arcade Game. He had a stack of tokens and was feeding another one (or two?) in every 10-20 seconds or so. That's the one thing I've always disliked about any type of rail shooters, it's literally impossible to shoot everything without getting hit yourself. I never had any consoles past the Atari era and never had any lightguns for any of my computers. In fact, the only lightgun I've ever used was the one attached to the Coleco Telstar Arcade, way back in the 70s, and all I got to do with that was shoot a moving block on the screen. And after a month or two, the gun didn't even work properly anymore. It would register a hit no matter where you pointed it, even if you covered the barrel.

[@carringtonopper6407]

Correction: Rail Shooters aren't light gun games. In some cases they made light gun versions. A rail shooter is like Operation Wolf, Revolution X, Terminator 2 Judgment Day, etc. This is basically an analog stick controlling the X-Y of a cursor. There is nothing sensing light. A light gun game like Duck Hunt, Time Crisis, Carnevil, etc. Is a photosensor sending a flash command to the console resulting in scanline changes in respect to refresh rate which the photosensor picks up in order to return a hit or miss. Later it would evolve into knowing exactly where the scanline was and therefore where you aimed (Duck Hunt or Hogan's Alley do not work like this). So while yes your perspective is "on a rail" , only the games controlling through a mounted gun without photosensor are rail shooters.

[@spartonberry]

What I've heard is, do not play Revolution X but especially not on Twitch. Apparently that is asking for a DMCA strike. I hear the DMCA bot can find "music" in that port where humans likely will not. Somewhere in the noises that result when you take music, break it into clips and further compressed down to fit among the other game code and data (including some memory-wasting voice) that all need to share a 2MB ROM chip.

Its cheezy, but I think it is an improvement over T2. Great vid either way!
