Been talking about beltscrollers since 2009...

>>8569367
neo-/jp/er detected

Playing AvP at the moment, a bit too easy. Does it get harder in later stages?

>>8569367

Kindly leave this board.

>>8569768
Well it's not the hardest beltscroller ever but the difficulty jumps a bit on stage 3, if you really want a challenge I guess play Armored Warriors/Powered Gear.

D&D Tower of Doom or Knights of the Round?

>>8569358
do you mean Powered Gear: Strategic Variant Armor Equipment (japanese name) is a nice one by capcom

>>8570298
Yes Armored Warriors/Powered Gear

Do you take the shortcut or not?

Is there a better beat em up than Guardian Heroes?

>>8572820
Yes,

It's called Alien Vs Predator.

are you excite for dragon's crown

where the hell did the name "beltscroller" come from, I've never heard a beat em up called a beltscroller before.

>>8572998
Vanillaware knows how to make gorgeous visuals but many of their games have somewhat lacking combatsystems.

Whats the point of the other characters anyway?

>>8572382
Yes, because only pussies don't go fight a boss the game warns you about.

>>8573352
I thought Muramasa was perfect, but you're right about the other ones.

>>8573778
I never got to play much of Muramasa because I lack a Wii, I remember them promising Muramasa HD for 360 and PS3 around early 2011 so much for that eh?

>>8573330
It¨s the japanese name for the genre.

We should try to make a /jp/ beltscrolling MAME pack.

Muramasa was really enjoyable but really short. I think the short length (for each character and overall) really benefited the gameplay and style of the game though.

>>8573883
FUND IT.

>>8573923
Well any particular suggestions?

Should we include all regions of the games?

>>8573941
well just from this thread we've got
-AvP
-D&D Tower of Doom
-Knights of the Round
-Powered Gear/Armored Warriors
-Battle Circuit

also obvious ones like Final Fight, Captain Commando, Knights of the Round, Battletoads arcade, X-men, The Simpsons and the TMNT games.

>>8573992

I have all of these ROMS milling around an old HD somewhere if people are serious.

>>8574000
I've got a fair amount as well.

alright /jp/, everyone zip and upload your beltscroller roms and we'll pool them together. for justice.

Does Metal Slug count as belt scroller too?

Warmly waiting for justice pack.

>>8573992
How about we go into "less" known games then,

Gaiapolis one of the few vertical scrolling belt scrollers

>>8574024
Sorry, Metal Slug falls under shooting games(stg).

>>8574024
It has to have a Y axis to be a belt scroller. Metal slug has only x and z.

Anyone here ever played Taito's PuLiRuLa quite the strange game to say the least.

We can find all roms here but should we also include the other regions or only the parent roms?

http://www.retroroms.net/modules/news/

Alright he is just a bunch of random stuff. Couldn't find any of the better things.

http://www.mediafire.com/?eg6942w4284e4d4

>>8574082

Then you must include GANGAN.

>>8569358


Why does that look like Blodia?

>>8574124
we're off to a good start.

>>8574185

Because it's Blodia.

Armored Warriors/Powered Gear
Battle Circuit
The Punisher
Captain Commando
D&D Shadow Over Mystara,Tower of Doom
Warriors of Fate
Alien Vs Predator
Metamorphic Force
Gaiapolis
The King of Dragons
Knights of The Round
Arabian Fight
Cadillacs and Dinosaurs
The Punisher
Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon
The Simpsons
X-Men Arcade
Undercover Cops
Ninja Baseball Batman
Knuckle Bash
Knights of Valour games
Oriental Legend
The Gladiator

Uhh I think I can name a few more

>>8574218
Asterix's
Bucky O'Hare
Altered Beast
Golden Axe 1,2,
Sengoku III
Captain America
SplatterHouse(fuck how could I forget it)

Well actually I could continue to name tons of them il just stop..

Well I got quite a few games il start out with the "basics"

KONAMI,CAPCOM,TAITO,SEGA etc and if people start getting sick of them I will start adding more stuff like Undercover Cop etc

>>8574276
Why you may ask I am doing it this is because CPSII games quite bigger than "regular" mame rom which is around 2-6mbs while CPSII can go from 10-40mbs

And yes I will try to get all regions of the roms in here.

>>8574291
.Or wait I take that back I will include 1 Euro or US version and 1 Japanese one which I assume will be whats considered "default" to play.

>>8574291
Current size of the pack 240mb think thats enough for starting out?

I will upload it so guys can review it maybe add some stuff etc then we can finalise a "final version"

I tried not just making it KONAMI and CAPCOM beltscrollers only but it was quite hard since I am quite fond of them when it comes to this genre.

>>8573778
Muramasa is one of my favorite games ever, although I don't play many "beltscrollers." I still go back and fight Yukinojyo once in a while because he's just fun to kill. Are there any other really good such games one might recommend?

>>8574498
Guardian Heroes and maybe Dungeons and Dragons Shadow Over Mystara is pretty much the only thing I can think off that would be "compatible" outside of the other vanillaware games.

>>8574498
Muramasa is fucking amazing, I wish I still had my Wii so I could play it again.

I will upload the pack tomorrow, my upload just failed and fuck my isp.

Hope this thread is still around untill tomorrow good night!

George Kamitani from Vanillaware also worked on Shadow Over Mystara and Tower of Doom

>>8574498

Muramasa is so awesome. Beautiful but not overly complex art/sprites/environment + fluid and well composed soundtrack + intuitive and fun gameplay, and the plot and characters are likable even if they aren't fleshed out. It's just a very relaxing and enjoyable game, one of the few things that made a Wii worth purchasing.

Here is the first version of the pack feel free to add games etc

http://depositfiles.com/files/9rlqfhzqu

is there a more dead genre then arcade beat em ups+

>>8576824

STGs/shmups and Western-style adventure games are also dead as HELL.

>>8576832
stgs have quite a few developers and a large doujin scene now who the fuck makes arcade beat em ups?

There was not a single release from 2003-2011

IGS is the only still making them last release was the new Knights of valour game.

Final Fight a shit

>>8576842
dragon's crown is coming out this year

>>8577461
Thats cool but it's not arcade.

>>8577440

>>8578824
Thats not Alien Vs Predator my friend.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNTJJlWxmho

>>8576413
Anyone feel like commenting?

>>8578874
I would have prefered mediafire, but beggars can't be choosers.

>>8578874

Downloading it right now. Also I am not really sure how well the ROMS I put up really are. Haaven't used them in four or five years but I remember them working fairly well. >>8574124

>>8578917
Do you think we should have a MAME client all in one for it or just leave it at a rompack?

>>8578939
Hmm. I would probably add a mame client. For laziness sake.

>>8579150
In a few days I will make a "test thread" and if people are too stupid not to know how to set up MAME then I will add it. For now I have faith that people here have enough intelligence to set up MAME:

>>8578874
Literally spent the last 6 hours downloading that. I'm going to enjoy this.

>>8576413
>>8578874
you have done a great service and /jp/ thanks you, friendanon.

>>8576413
could you post the list of games that were in the pack, it would be nice

>>8579989
This.
It would ne nice to know what exactly I'm going to download

>>8579989

Pretty much just this. >>8574218

Also thanks. I haven't play Pretty Soldier since the shoddy emulation days of 2002.

>>8580000
but are more in there or not, because in gonna download everyone of this >>8574218 and this >>8574250

>>8580003

All of those are in there.

>>8580007
its a chain image
don't click guys

Just found a lot of stuff from a seven year old hard drive. I'll upload it all tomorrow after work if this thread is still here.

>>8580374
if its seven years old the roms might have newer dumps that will not function on the newer mame version

>>8580374
the roms might be outdated if they are 7 years old

>>8580374
If they are 7 years old they might be outdated

Why bother with roms packs?
Most of them are available in a few seconds with sites like planetemu.net

>>8580672
Because it makes "Lets play insert said game" threads alot easier then having about 50 guys bitch about how they can't find functioning roms and whatnot

wat is scrolling berlt?

What do you guys think off Guardian Heroes?

>>8583595

It's really fun. I only have the Sega Saturn version so I can't really say how well the XBLA and PSN ports turned out.

>>8583595
It's a very enjoyable game I had quite the time playing it around 1996, Han is my main guy what I truly enjoyed was how many routes there were with different bosses and whatnot alot of replay value in the game. Now what I don't like about the game is the leveling no I don't enjoy Battle Circuit either.

can we discuss 3d games like diehard arcade and zombies revenge?
