[@Movingvolations]

Thanks for sharing as always...

[@lukemorse1]

Thanks for watching these vids, I really appreciate it a lot

[@MrTuco40]

Man, how did I miss this game? No idea this ever existed. Thanks!

[@lukemorse1]

Sometimes these games back in the day were blocked out but others that were more popular or just the shear number of games at the time. Nevertheless, now hopefully you can give it a shot! Thanks for watching

[@einsp227]

2 videos in a short time? I'm here for it.

[@lukemorse1]

Haha, I figured that with it being the Halloween season I would try to put up a few of these relevant games. Thanks for coming by to check them out!

[@StRoRo]

Thanks for the upload. I've not long been diagnosed with ALS. I'm losing my ability to play games as well as everything else. Your videos have really helped me get through the days. Your classic style of game capture makes it feel like friends just hanging out playing games together. You may not think your videos mean much to people, but to me, they've been a great source of much needed fun and distraction.

[@user-9sidfgsxgj]

Never heard of this game, looks amazing!

[@lukemorse1]

It was one of those games that some people knew about and others didnt back in the day. Luckily with emulation, everyone can enjoy trying it out for themselves. Give it a shot if you get the chance!

[@dinkc64]

Dig the arcade videos, Luke! Been watching since 2014.

[@lukemorse1]

Thanks for the long term support there dink! just popping up a few of these old boards for the season. Many of them havent been turned on it some time so it also helps to make sure they are still running while being able to share them with everyone.

Used to see this cab scattered around maryland. Love jumping on monsters and beating their heads off. The music really cool also. Ive been wanting to do a cover for this game specifically the boss fight would sound really good using some brass from the roland fantom +some waveform insruments with bass and studio drums from the korg kronos blended with a 808 for and elecro for bump

[@lukemorse1]

Sounds like some really cool times around Maryland there. The jumping on the heads and music is definitely awesome. Doing a cover sounds like it would be pretty awesome and worth the try if you get the chance. Best of luck with that and thanks for watching!

[@StevenCusic]

​@lukemorse1 yea man ill let you know when I get to it eventually. Btw I think the music was done by 2 people one was Mikio Saito who was part of the 4 person ninja gaiden arcade sound team. It's nice hearing the pcb version of this since mame dosnt emulate the low and high pass filters on the board and can be a ear piercing. I usaully have to play these through a gate with lo and high pass filters with a notch.

[@evilash570]

Cool game I only ever saw it once when it came out in arcades.

[@lukemorse1]

Thats awesome! I never saw this one in the arcade back in the day but I was glad to find out about it later on. Now hopefully others can enjoy this one as well.

[@diddrumdontdrum]

Thanks for uploading another video. Always entertaining. You must have quite a collection of PCBs. Looking forward to what you put up next! Thanks again

[@TheKayliedGamerChannel-YouTube]

New one to me here, thanks for sharing this game fella🎃 Happy Halloween Luke :) 👌

[@lukemorse1]

You betcha man. Some of these games fly under the radar so if Im able to share something here Im glad. Happy Halloween back at you!

[@thegreatjonzini]

Always loved this game. They had it briefly at the video shop at the end of our school drive. Lots of donner money spent on it 😅 jumping the heads attack was great if you combo'd between a few enemies 🥂

I wish I knew about this exciting title back in the day. Tecmo made some fantastic games before they merged with Koei in 2010. I remember playing Dead or Alive for the Sega model 2 and being amazing by the graphics in the mid 90s. For consoles, the Ninja Gaiden series and Rygar are amazing titles. I have Rygar and the first two Ninja Gaidens on the NES but mine is going to need its 72 pin connector replaced soon.

[@lukemorse1]

I totally know what you mean WWP, This board is actually very similar to Ninja Gaiden on the arcade and you are totally right about the sega games. Those are some great games for the NES and if you take off your 72 pin connector and put it in some hot water and boil it, it usually cleans the pins quite well. Its a cheap alternative to buying a new one and if the pins are loose, there are videos on YT on how to tighten them up using a small flat head screwdriver. Give it a shot if you get the cance and thanks again!

[@The_Magic_of_Zelda]

@@lukemorse1 Thanks man! I'll try out your suggestions. I hope to get my NES back running again.

[@crazedlink]

That game has a cool Continue screen

[@lukemorse1]

Definitely! I like what some of these devs did back in the day, very creative and interesting concepts. Thanks for watching

[@murrij]

Thank you for showing this!

[@BlusViews]

Neat game never seen this one before!

[@retrogamingapapa3146]

I love Tecmo games ! Merci my friend ! ;)

[@jacobrichardson1952]

Ooohhh not bad Luke this is interesting!

[@Cahos_Rahne_Veloza]

Those turtle enemy sprites kinda look like Tokka ftom TMNT2: Secret of the Ooze.

[@lukemorse1]

Haha! awesome association there Cahos! I can definitely see that for sure. Hope you are doing well and thanks as always

[@butch405]

Would be nice to see some Japan only Mega Drive or SNES Games again

[@DPADFTW]

The FM Music hits hard. Love it. What Yamaha sound chip is on the board Luke? It's Dave BTW. Thanks. That video you made of the GTG2 board I sent you is now 13 years old man, where has the time gone XD? Hope you're doing well man.

[@pannonianbrute]

Golden axe 3 was heavily “inspired” by this I see :)

[@adrianknight1406]

Luke you must have some amazing hookup to be able to get all these games ( jamma PC boards). Many of these I've never even heard about. Thought I'd seen in all for the most part until stumbling across your channel. Why is it that you never speak on where and how you get all your hardware and PCB boards? Why so secretive?

[@pcbjunkie1]

Made a comment about the game's "graphic" nature in the last video. KZbin thought it was too much and removed it. Let's just say, these Halloween games are very... "cool".

[@steveazusa]

Has ninja Gaiden arcade vibes I know they are both tecmo

[@StevenCusic]

Same hardware and engine

[@gumdeo]

Not familiar with this one, looks neat!

[@piratestation69]

Im guessing this was a japan only game?
