Bonk 2 and Super Bonk 2

both were some of the best platformers of their respective consoles

Bonk 2 was on a failed console and had no marketing

Super Bonk 2 followed a shitty sequel and was Japan only

Zenki Battle Raiden is a really good anime beatemup on the snes. great moveset and pastel graphics

People are lucky enough to get a Gunstar Heroes homage, Sin and Punishment sequel, and an additional Bangai-O game. Treasure often didn't work on sequels until after the 5th generation, even then they are few and far between.

fuck up you clueless feral cunt, einhander was popular considering the time it came out and plays nothing at all like fucking r-type not that i'd expect a shit no talent pleb queer like you to notice, also has the best atmosphere and ost to date within the genre and did a fair amount of new things with the 3d none of which were present in r-type, twat.

It's an R-Type wannabe, lad. Though, calling it that is a disservice to R-Type which has much more interesting level designs.

>the best atmosphere and ost to date within the genre
Its atmosphere isn't that original or great, just generic sci-fi cyberpunk that was big in the late '80s up to mid '90s.

>did a fair amount of new things with the 3d none of which were present in r-type
Wow you can shoot missiles into the background now, so innovative and fascinating.


Quit sucking Einhaender's dick and realise it's a bland shooter covered up by a style you like because you're a nerdy neckbeard.

Probably because R-Type Delta overshadows it. R-Type Delta may as well be the greatest console SHMUP ever made.

Some would argue Gradius Gaiden takes that title, but for me it's R-Type Delta by a large margin.

The point he was making is that Einhander isn't obscure at all to people who were buying their own games instead of begging from mommy and daddy.

I'm not saying he's right mind you because I was fairly sure many people knew about it regardless of age.

MobyGames has 137,037 games in their database and even that isn't a complete list. It would take you years just to beat the top 1%.

I wish I could find a good source to read the comics. Few years ago I couldn't find anything online nor could I find a place to buy any issues which sucks because the intro for the Genesis game had one of the coolest plot premises ever and the setting is really interesting.
