/vr/ - Retro Games

Thank you for reminding me that there is a new MechaGamezilla podcast.

What's MechaGamezilla?

They were really desperate to come up with enemies for this game compared to Kirby's Ghost Trap.

That red dude on the right looks like such a robot master, it's not even funny

>>1211827
Did the animators bring their kids in to work to design these characters for them?

>>1211827

THAT ROBOT HAS TITTIES

fuck that game the second opponent is broken as fuck the game goes from not to bad to hard as fuck by the second round
>>1211765
get over yourself nintendrone they just used characters from the adventures of sonic

One thing I never understood was why the good doctor is getting mad when you die? Suppose it's Sonic failing to defeat his minions, why would he scream and jump like that? It's odd.

>>1212382
I saw it as him being excited since he laughs when you don't continue.

Certain assets were reused/remixed from Puyo Puyo:

>dat purple "deal with it" bot

>>1212382
He's throwing a fit because he doesnt want you to continue.

Where are all of these cartoon images coming from? I can never get enough Classic Sonic.

>>1212576
The first episode of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. The 'henchbots' from Mean Bean Machine are all derived from this first episode. The game even gives them all names and quirky personalities.

Although Grounder seems to suffer from a dissociative personality disorder and insists that everybody call him Sam.

Someone should make some porn of that robot with tits.

>>1211737
The best part of Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine was that they had an animation of Robotnik pointing around like Hitler.

>>1211827
holy shit...
That beige robot is that background gag thing from Astro Boy

At least Sega Technical Institute was based enough to simply "remix" some songs instead of swapping out the CUBE sound driver with the infamous GEMS driver.

Fun fact: The CUBE Sound Driver is one of the most common Mega Drive sound drivers. It's also used for Zero Wing, and is the only Toaplan game to use that driver.

I'm in the minority, but I like the Puyo Puyo version better. It sounds more regal, hard to describe it. Hey, at least it's not this:

Once more, Sega does what Nintendon't.

>>1212592
Because he's going to have you for Launch.

>>1212987

>>1212991
Hey, he actually says that in the game. And strangely, Scratch and Grounder seem a little more menacing than what they appeared in the cartoon.

Also, I really liked the cartoon's depiction of Robotnik. It'd be nice if all future interpretations of this character were loosely based on Long John Baldry's spin.

>>1212604
Gotta admit, Sir Ffuzzy's winning face is fairly badass. Also looks cool in the game gear version.

>not playing the superior kirby's avalanche

>>1212995
Everyone knows AoStH Robotnik is best

>>1213026
I never really played any Sonic games, but does Eggman behave similarly to him in any of the newer games? I know there is one scene where Sonic managed to catch up to him, and he asks him "How did you get here", in spite of Sonic being, well, fast. He doesn't have much common sense despite being smart.

There was an episode of AoStH where Robotnik has a 'pinball fortress' similar to Sonic Spinball; he even has a giant scorpion robot kinda like the game too.

>>1213042
Except Spinball wasn't good and had horrible music. Seriously, fuck the GEMS driver. Couldn't Sega hand out a better sound driver than that, or was patriotism too strong to allow filthy Japanese sound drivers to be the norm?

>>1212978
that sounds like compile fucked up and put a song meant for an aleste game into their puyo puyo series. It's not bad it just does not belong in a puzzle game thats for sure.

Sonic Spinball Mindfuck is an interesting thing where they did up the Sonic Spinball songs using the Sonic 1/2/3 instruments.

>>1213063
Actually, this doesn't sound like it'd be much of an action song. RPGs and other games with low action tend to have very "grand" songs. I can't see this being used other than a final boss theme in an RPG or a Puzzle game. I certainly can't see this being used as a Vs. Theme.

>>1212102
Grounder has an ass crack. What do you expect.

>>1213037
> Eggman

Underage detected

>>1213065
>record scratch

So does that mean Sonic 2 is the only game that uses a record scratch sample?

>>1213070
Eggman is shorter than Robotnik, and easier to write out.

>>1213067
It's not grand though it uses guitars which is suited more to action, if it was brass instruments then yeah I totally see it being a final theme to an RPG boss. its too intense for a puzzle game though i still think

>>1213080
It's hard to make grand music with the Genesis music. And really, that part at 15 seconds sounds very "Ancient Greece" like. In fact, "Brave of Puyo Puyo" sounds "Ancient Greek".

>>1213083
the fuck does ancient greece sound like?

>>1213075
Not sure, I don't know much about the Sega genesis/megadrive's sound systems.

>>1211737
Oh look. A bunch of extra robots that appeared in the pilot episode of the cartoon and were never seen again.
THEY'LL BE SO POPULAR! LET'S PUT THEM ALL IN A SEGA GAME!
