When I was... eleven years old. I had a desktop stripper.
Okay? Uh, now... I will attempt to say what actually went down.
I downloaded one of those desktop strippers and I thought it was like
>Oh my god. There's boobs! BOOBS!
And it looked like the best thing ever. And then when I downloaded it, you know what I got?
A 2 frame, 24 x 24 pixel gif of a woman having a seizure. I'm not even joking about that. and it was super sped up too.
The worst part? I couldn't get it off my PC... So my parents found out.
My dad was so disappointed.

I felt so bad. You know all credit to my dad, he had to raise me. My dad had to raise me... My dad... I've never seen such violent disappointed in me. He wasn't mad but he was so regretful that I existed.

the stage progression is better, and i guess its cool to be able to throw enemies at the screen, and i guess its kind of a cool gimmick to use that for a boss fight. but thats it. it literally stops there.

hyperstone heist surpasses it in every possible way. better looking, better music, better controls, and it has tatsu.

Turtles in Time: great game
Hyperstone Heist: literally a port of Turtles in Time that had to be downgraded due to inferior hardware (but still great, if all you have is a Genesis)
Alien versus Predator: best beat-em-up of all time
Mario 64: most overrated retro game, among several that are more overrated than Turtles in Time

>Hyperstone Heist: literally a port of Turtles in Time that had to be downgraded due to inferior hardware
This is completely false. The only thing similar between Hyperstone Heist and Turtles In Time are the intros. Everything else is different, from levels to enemie bosses. The graphics and sound still looks as great as it did on the arcade. Must be why M2 has a hard time emulating the sound of Hyperstone Heist on the Sega Genesis, which is why I had to install retroarch just to get it working.

>> No.7887747

The snes is actually the inferior downgraded system.

It's why games like thunder force 4 simply couldn't be ported to it. It was an inferior console with slower speeds and sound.

U can name literally hundreds of mega drive music yet with the snes it's the mario theme .... and that's it

Simpsons Arcade is equally overrated.

I played like 30 or 40 beat em up over the past few months and the only beat em up games worse than these two were double dragon and kunio-kun.

On the other hand, one I expected to be shit but was far and away the best game is Aliens vs Predator.

HH *feels* superior at first due to the better hit detection and the satisfying and responsive feedback, but in the end it's an inferior game all you have to do to win is
>run + special attack
>repeat
Literaly braind dead button smash and there is NOTHING in the game that can stop it.

That and the bosses are super lame, they're all basically the same with their "run from one side of the screen to the next" routine.

TMNTIV has much more varied gameplay and requires a lot more technique AND tactic in order to get good.

Hyperstone Heist had a boss rush at the end, which is one of the laziest ways to pad out a game with five stages.

This is just a factually incorrect statement. There's nothing to argue, you're just downright wrong. The only question is why. Did you grow up on TMNT and this game, developing a strong bias and/or nostalgia for it?

or you can just hit an enemy once to make them flinch, walk in close, and throw them to their death. oh yeah, really tough and deep combat there. if you're playing a turtles game for deep combat, you're playing the wrong game.

Konami's beatemups are all pure trash. Simpsons. X-Men. Every Turtles one they made.
They take a very hot license, give it great visuals, incredible music, and then toss all these great ingredients into gameplay so simplistic and shitty any other company would be embarrassed to release it after Double Dragon, let alone fucking Final Fight. To even call Konami's buttonmashing, jumpkick spamming shitpiles beatemups is an insult to the genre.

I love this game, but who the fuck is overrating it? Some random e-celeb with minimal knowledge on the cause? Back then, TMNT was popular and the games were fine, so we grew up with that, had fun, and that's it. I don't remember anyone going nuts for this game, even though the majority of them liked it.

As a matter of fact, there isn't a single game worth of being overrated. Try yourself and post one here. A deluge of hate will come over your way, since everyone has their opinion, but aren't smart enough to realize that.

Can u give me at least 10 well world known snes themes or music that ARNT just the mario jingle?

SOR has had a club event dedicated to it and has had several club remasters done.
U then have themes from golden axe, Alisa dragoon, alien soldier, gunstar heroes, sonic. The list goes on.

The MD had the better sound chip which is why it's got better and well known songs/music

what is the "mario jingle" to you? athletic? underground? donut plains? vanilla dome? bowsers valley? star road? special zone? course clear? yoshi's island? speaking of club remixes, star road was used in music that actually charted. music that people hear and recognize. it's trivially weak bait when you claim more people recognize streets of rage because you heard it in a gay bar. you are out of your league.

Konami beatemups are subpar. They generally allow combo breaking and other shit (some make the health count down) to force artificial quarter feeding. They can be 1cc'd, but stupid mechanics make it more difficult than it should be.

Violent Storm is the only good Konami beatemup.

P.S. SNES port? Fuck you.

I remember the throwing and slamming to the sides being really overpowered to the point it kinda ruined the rest of the moveset.
I had more fun with its predecessor.

>>7891520
They are. Slamming, primarily. It meant:

- Instant death to the enemy;
- Instant death to any other opposition touched by the enemy being slammed;
- Slamming doesn't finish quickly, raising the chance of it touching other enemies;
- You are invincible during it;
- At the end, you are awarded with more points toward gaining an extra life than finishing the opponent normally.

Wow! Quite a list of advantages. I still like it though.
