Cadillacs and Dinosaurs at #1? Yep this guy knows his arcade games!

[@loganford3921]

I remember being unimpressed of Samurai Shodown when. I saw it in gaming Magazines (EGM and Game Fan) in 1993 but when I saw it and played in the arcade it quickly became one of my favourites of that year. Samurai Shodown 2 is definitely is the best of the series for me and one of the best fighting games ever

Estoy acostumbrado a los videos con los mejores juegos que pululan por KZbin, pero amigo, lo tuyo es está a otro nivel. Me encantó tu sentido del humor que desplegaste en la historia. No me quiero imaginar el trabajo que debió haber llevado armar toda esa presentación. Ya has puesto muy alta la barra, incluso para tus futuros videos. Y podemos o no estar de acuerdo con el lugar en el que terminaron los juegos, pero eso siempre dependerá del gusto de la personas.

[@meecob]

Never played Night Slasher before but really enjoyed it. Great find!

[@psistis80]

Great intro. 25:45 for a split second, I read Virtua Fighter 4 & I was like WTF? Keep up the good work. Greetings from Greece.

[@snoozy04]

1993 was such an amazing year for arcade games

[@retrogames3404]

The best year of arcades ever. How wonderful is your list! Fully approved. Make an equal in this format for 1994 💥, it was also an amazing year including Daytona USA and others. I was very happy with this video, thanks man

[@digitalvictory8266]

Holy shit 1993 was amazing! What a great selection of games!

[@Shinobi33]

Ridge Racer for the Arcade looks amazing. Has this version ever been re-released?

[@josemanuelgonzalez9659]

El 1er y 3er puesto son probablemente los juegos a los que más monedas de 5 duros eché en los recreativos.

[@yami7017]

Missed these type of gameplay nowadays a truly remarkable classics. It's always my favorite era of gaming.

[@brahimhayouni2023]

You can find better than them in the Paradise, just convert to Islam.

[@brahimhayouni2023]

@joelanderson8062 I'm serious

[@Hektols]

Unos juegos excelente. Fue una sorpresa ver que Ridge Racer era de 1993. El Cadillacs & Dinosaurs tiene el puesto más que merecido.

[@luisfernandomiguelpiris252]

SAMURAI SHODOWN ES DE 1993

[@brentrusche2056]

All the games look fantastic. Would you be able to share with us viewers the shader settings you use? Thanks in advance.

[@CarlosTorresCali]

De la Lista conocí solo 8 juegos. Es increíble cada años de los 80s y 90s, todo lo que salia en; Juegos, Musica, Cine, Gadgets, TV, etc

[@pju28]

Como siempre un orgullo de ver tus vídeos. Continúa haciéndolo como lo haces. Un saludo desde AT 👍

[@guilleros7893]

Iba a decir que el primer lugar se lo merecía Rigde Racer por su increíble salto tecnológico en cuanto a mapeado de texturas y tecnicas como el gouraud shading. Hasta que he visto mi querido Cadillacs, el arcade 2D de mi infancia.

[@parrishharris3008]

This is a very good list of yours and i didn't know that these specific games debuted in 1993 and i have all these games on emulation but i can't find my RayForce that i love so much lol.

[@brendanroberts1310]

Its a shame some of these games never received a decent home port.

[@jonathanbranhamsgaminganda8799]

Eco fighters aka ultimate ecology in japan is one of my favorite games from this era 😊

[@wizards-themagicalconcert5048]

Love the look of your games ! What CRT filters and settings do you use ?

[@dewaynepierce5502]

Run and Gun was one of my favorites

[@estebanbianciotto1810]

Estupendo ranking!

[@Fluoride_Jones]

Great list! Up to this point, 1993 might've had the most quality arcade releases in a single year, but that's just my opinion. 👍

[@beachlife2968]

mid to late 80s was where the arcades ruled. Mid 90s especially when the ps1 came out it was finished

[@ultor7654]

Awesome channel !!! Thank you so much!!!!

[@gipgap4]

When CPS2 and Neo Geo ruled the arcades.

[@antoniomunozsanchez7476]

Aun me alucina el tamaño de los sprites en Violent Storm. Menuda pasada.

[@emanuelferreira6875]

Caddilacs and the punisher. How many coins i lost for them

[@remynath33]

Curious that Wade from Violent Storm is the same character as Nick in SNES' Power Athlete (Deadly Moves / Power Moves)

[@FantasyVisuals]

Capcoms AVP , Konamis Asterix , KingofFighters 98 , Gunsmoke , there are so many that are iconic

[@Zahir658]

You should do more of the character interactions often. They are adding fun to your videos 👍

[@vianns]

Cadillac & Dinosaurs the best Beat them all, never produce 🌟 I would like to see a remake of this game with the Unreal Engine 5

[@evilsetsuna]

Tremenda selección de arcades. Como dato curioso/pedante decir que el Tower of doom aunque en el juego señale que salió en 1993, no salió hasta el 13 de enero del siguiente año.

[@Andres5045]

Es tarde, me meto en la cama, miro un rato youtube, clickeo en un video que me sale en recomendados y me entra un antojo tremendo por jugar mystic warriors

[@giampsjorbat2247]

Excelent video!

[@MrBen2177]

This was my favorite gaming Year. Nothing that came after beat this

[@AkagiRedSun]

I recently got into Retro emulation and I’m glad I’m off current trend of game. I got my old favorite games up to PS3 and stuck on MAME and other arcade cabinet

[@wrod1522]

What shader are you using? looks amazing

[@aldoushuxleysghost]

1993 was a great year, to be sure, but the decline had kind of already started this year as well. By '95 and '96, the waning arcade popularity had become all too apparent

[@Pain-ec2tk]

Spin Master is one of my favorite arcade games with Mortal Combat 2 and Cadillacs and Dinosaurs

[@fuerto84]

Mortal Kombat 2

[@sobesons]

Vaya año!

[@deszaras3]

Perfect 👌🏻

[@ponzioriver2657]

Saludos amig,una pregunta para qe consola son los juegos? ,hay muchos juegos qe no juge y estan buenos las listas para buscarlos y descargarlos 👋🎮

[@THEMARTIALARTSCHANNEL-bb4fx]

These are no console games, these are arcade games 🤣🤣🤣

[@franciscooteiza]

[@Induna123]

This was probably the last great year in the arcade for me. After that it went downhill.

[@wasekasi]

Perfect😎.

[@classylarry]

Ridge Racer looks pretty impressive for 1993

[@PANTYEATR1]

Love Samurai Showdown! Wish there was a PS2 version💪

[@mrdark8276]

Hey, Johnny Cage triple kick decapitation?! How to do that? : )

[@TROldSchoolGamer]

It can be unlocked in the game cheats.

[@mrdark8276]

Nice! Thanks for the hint. Kongrats for your channel. Always one of my favourite! : )

[@hong10ly70]

Great games!!! I prefer play arcade games than switch games

[@hong10ly70]

Nice game

[@edmundosantos2421]

From which game are these 2 characters presenting the top list?

[@shay_3859]

23:44 So this is where the green goblin bomb eound effect comes from😂?

[@ernanquispe6512]

hola. como se llama el juego de donde sale la imagen de tu portada del vídeo

[@TROldSchoolGamer]

samurai shodown

[@DENCROW]

Qué versión de la rom de NBA Jam rompe el cristal del tablero? Se que hay versiones donde el cristal no se rompe, yo queria jugar la version que se rompe. Which version of the NBA Jam rom breaks the Backboard glass?? I know there are versions where the glass doesn't break, I wanted to play the version that breaks

[@TROldSchoolGamer]

No se cual versión es, pero puedes desbloquear cosas muy locas en los trucos (cheats) como romper tableros.

[@mjolnir1069]

Menuda colección de fatalitys te has marcado en Mortal kombat 2 😂😂

[@dreammaster8036]

What is the nameEmulator of the game ?

[@dexterkoeman6050]

In my opinion, Cadillacs + Spin Master are the better ones. Abraço de Portugal.

[@HeavyWeapon44]

⭐

[@聖鬥士]

Wow

[@mota7506]

buena añada

[@luisfernandomiguelpiris252]

IZA JINJYOURNI? YES IN 1993

[@ilirtanku9722]

Violent Storm the best

[@TROldSchoolGamer]

Every time I play it, it seems better to me. It could have easily been in the top 3.

[@loyal2thesoil412]

🤣 I have this on my regular modded OG Xbox it's the NINJA MASSIVE , down loads .

[@beachlife2968]

A lot of final fight clones

[@dantebelmont1408]

😮

[@blessennaveed3919]

Plz 18 numbers game name plz

[@TROldSchoolGamer]

Mystic Warriors: Wrath of the Ninjas

[@jojolecruchotdugeeklille2681]

BATSUGUN????

[@mikehunt4797]

EcoTurd.

[@luisreyes1963]

2 basketball games in the top 10? Biased much? 🤨

[@TROldSchoolGamer]

Sports arcade games were very popular, and that year saw some of the best NBA basketball games, in my opinion. Perhaps I have some bias towards RUN & GUN since it was one of the arcades that I enjoyed the most. It was impressive, with graphics that were among the best you could see at that time, especially for sports games. Additionally, you could play with up to 4 players simultaneously.

[@MARC-FENIX]

@@TROldSchoolGamer A lo que hemos llegado. Un español preguntando a otro español en ingles, y el otro español (que habla español en sus videos en su canal) contestando en ingles al español. No me sorprende nada si seguimos a la cola en muchas cosas.
