Game Impressions I'm playing Esprade and Dodonpachi on a tiny cab, I'm in heaven.. Hungrymaster and LeagueofEvil are great too by the wat,
You dont make it easy do you ! Havent you got a windows laptop or anything ? If youre using something strange like ubuntu i'm not sure what you can do, unless there is a similar tool on Ubuntu like iExplorer. If not nothing
I do have a windows laptop with iTunes, but I rarely use it, because dad doesn't let me use internet on it because of viruses, idk...
Thanks for mentioning that game, havent tried that one myself so i'll do that now. Good to hear recommendations of games which arent the 'well known' ones.
iExporer for iMame Well it took my forever to figure out how to use the programs on my non-jailbroken iPad with iMame, anybody who has ever used a Mac knows the mouse has one button, well at 0230hrs I held down control and a nice little tab that said add file cam up in the imame/docs file, started moving the goodies in and my iCade needs new batterys and the games are sweet, Donkey Kong, Lady Bug, berzek and Mrs Pac-Man run very smooth and with the iCade makes the ordeal worth it.
Yep its my favourite app ! So many great games on that list, been trying to free up room to add some of the larger filesizes. I love some of the early 80's games such as Ladybug. I had a lot of conversions for my home computer in the 80's, obviously no way as good but its so great having the originals now. Playing track n field brings back memories, dont want to damage my buttons too much though by 'running' ! I'm just happy with the two Bomb Jack games
Thought id mention a few other nice games that are maybe not so well known. Feel free to chip in with your own: 3 count bout Andro duos Blood bros (change to auto video depth to work) Growl/ runark Crossed swords Dead connection Neo mr do Top hunter Blazing star Pulstar Sly spy Spinmaster/ miracle adventure 3 wonders Tumble pop Waku waku 7 Gowcaizer/ voltage fighters Enjoy
Thanks i'll check those out My 'tip' is Penguin Kun-Wars. Funny 'sport' type game where you have to throw balls to your opponents side, when the time runs out the person with the most loses. Its a lot of fun and gets very addictive I found it in the app store a while back but US only, emailed the devs to ask if they'll release it in the European app store but they said no ! So i tried legally to get this game, couldnt so i'm now happy i've got this original MAME version. Three Wonders is excellent, like a great Metal Slug/Ghost n Goblins type game. Very good
Zaxxon Well after check about 7 different files ( all claiming they were ver 0.37b5) for Zaxxon, I am coming up dry, But I did learn there was a Zaxxon II, and Super Zaxon.
Ha ha ! Anyway does anyone have any more lists ? Your last one was very good, some big file sizes there for some of the games but some really good ones you pointed out
list of fantastic games 1941 Aerofighters Badlands Black Tiger Bomb Jack Flying Shark Ghost Pilots Great 1000 Miles Rally Liquid Kids Metro Cross Neo Drift Out Rainbow Islands Shock Troopers Thrash Rally Truxton II Super QIX
Thanks for those, i know of a few of them but i'll check the other ones out. Always loved the 1942 set of games so its nice to have the prequel and sequel Metro Cross is an excellent gem of a game, one of my favourites. Rainbow Islands is a classic and Badlands was a great 'sequel' to Super Sprint, something a bit different.
I mainly play SF and Neo Geo games and am accustomed to the Japanese button layout on their cabinets. Its a lot more ergonomic a layout for 6 button games than what you're essentially allowed to use on the iCade. That said, I found a really easy fix that involves taking it apart. On the plus side, thats really the only difficult part, because low and behold, the iCade uses actual Cherry Switches The best part, is the build quality, all the leads use pressure mounted clips you can just slide on and off. This made modding it easy, you just swap the non-black leads to the buttons you want to swap with, in my case the far outside buttons. I was done in about 10 minutes, 90% of that on the screwing/unscrewing. Very impressed by the iCade's quality through and through.
Check out Varth! Was playing and my ship done an actual 'hadouken.' love stuff like that. Also more good games: twinkle star sprites, magical drop 3, hit the ice, last blade 1&2, shock troopers 1&2, ninja commando, sengoku 1&2!
Was Blazing Star on one of the lists? IMHO it's the best shmup on the Neo-Geo. Oh, I was looking on the Shoryuken forum and a few guys have already switched out the iCade stick and buttons with Sanwa parts. LOL! Let the modding begin!
