Rastan is my favorite. I left all my new generation consoles aside just to be able to play these games on a Linux retro-gamimg distro. I am happy that I grew up in the 80's and had a chance to play some of these gems.
And yet some Taito arcade games still managed to get skipped, like Asuka and Asuka, Ray Storm, 3 Side By Side/Battle Gear games, and Magical Date EX to name a few.
Wow! TAITO has a lot more amazing games than even I knew about, and I thought I had played many of their games over the years In the arcades. Great video!
@@Theshark15z I used to work for Game Development. The thing with Game Development is that producing a game would take years before it gets released. By the time it is released, newer tech and better graphics would have been available already and released by other competitors. Sometimes it is also due to project costs, especially if newer tech or game engines are available midway during the development of the game. It would take more time and more money to transition the current development from a previous tech to the newer platform/tech, which most game companies would not agree to as, in both marketing and finance's view point, would have better ROI if they meet the agreed game's release date instead. This is also the reason why porting previously released games to newer consoles would have a significant number of years to be completed.
Honestly, arcades are as popular as ever, just not so much in the United States (unless you’re in a tourist heavy area). Countries like Japan, South Korea, and Singapore LOVE their arcades
@@dragonfye1 There are places. In England a couple have appeared that follow the same formula - pay to get it but can stay all day and the games are free play. Means you go on loads you wouldn't otherwise.
Always thanks to your videos. It’s with best of videos like these than I discovered many old treasures who are now nostalgic classic to me. Chiky boys,legend of heroe tonma,dark seal 2,black heart,road to the sword,rabio lepus,hucha mecha fighters...and many more... I take a paper,or just my phone,I dowload the roms and play them on android console like powkiddy x18s,odin also directly on my arcade cabinet when I can. It’s a really great feeling to have a hype by myself about some 25years+ old games.
I love pc and console gaming but miss the arcades. Theres something about the sounds and smells. Plus all the people having a good time. I really love arcade racing games. Sega had one with 4 cabinets side by side. It was a blast
The first arcade I played in my life was "The Tin Star", from 1983. I was 4 years old and my mom bought 2 chips for me to have fun. Until today, I didn't know the name of the game and had never seen it again... I'm speechless. 😀
Сколько красивых, весёлых и захватывающих игр самых разных лет!!! Постскриптум. Встречал в виде "твёрдых" игровых автоматов только три штучки кажется!!!)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Aaaaahhhh... Que de merveilleux souvenirs d'enfance en compagnie de Bubble Bobble, Arkanoïd & Opération Wolf sur Amstrad cpc 6128... Merci beaucoup pour le up' amigo mio !!! 👍👍👍
Taito.. qué grande. Para mi tuvo su época dorada en los 80s, primeros noventas. Un poco como Namco. Luego se mantuvo en un discreto segundo plano (en los arcades) a la sombra de Capcom, SEGA, Konami, Atari, SNK, Irem, etc... si bien Taito siempre tuvo títulos-sagas excelentes, y es curioso que al final del video, quizás sea impresión mía, tiene varios títulos de gran calidad gráfica.. que habría que jugarlos, claro.. pero parecen muy buenas recreativas.
El legado Taito es el mas antiguo y el mas variado, ver este vídeo me recordó cuando mi papá me llevaba a las maquinas a jugar, lastima que el recopilatorio de Taito no llego tan lejos.
Espectacular colección de videojuegos de esta emblemática compañía. Qué nostalgia traen siempre los Arcade. Toda una pasada! Mis favoritos: Rainbow island, Operation Wolf, Chase HQ y Kiki KaiKai ;)
Taito, my favorite game developer. Amazing how MAME has this game as 1984, but the Taito Memories compilations have it listed as 1985. Looks like Taito goofed there. You can also tell this is one of the earliest Zuntata music compositions for Taito, no other game had music that rich sounding that early (that wasn't laserdisc). Return of the Invaders is an odd one, I've heard that one was more UPL made than anything Taito did. Same case with Last Duel on the second Capcom compilation, heard Toaplan guys worked on it.
Favorites are elevator action returns, rayforce, space invaders (original and 95), Kiki kaikai, liquid kids, frontline, zookeeper, rainbow island, and bubble bobble.
Taito is making a mini console version of their Egret II candy cab arcade machine from 1996. It is called the Egret II Mini and it is going to be released in March 2022.
Taito has many well known arcade video games. Space Invaders (1978) is probably the most notable, but games such as Speed Race (1974), Gun Fight (1975), Qix (1981), Jungle Hunt (1982), Elevator Action (1983), Buggy Challenge (1984), Bubble Bobble (1986), Takeshi no Chōsenjō (1986), Chase H.Q. (1988), Puzznic (1989), Kick Master (1992), Gun Buster (1992) and Puzzle Bobble (1994) are all part of Taito's library. Taito also had a license from Hanna-Barbera to produce games based on its animated series on The Flintstones and Jetsons and the movie Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
Kick and Run is the father of all football videogames ❤ Do you believe me that finally I found Cadash after more than 30 years !? Lol I never remembered the title but I remember it was a Taito game. Thanks a lot!!
Que gran compañia, que buenos ratos me hizo pasar con varios títulos, entre ellos fighting hawk, no está en la lista, aún hoy lo sigo jugando. Me encanta tu canal. Un saludo.
I like Change Lanes. It looks like the kind of game I might have seen screenshots (usually artist's renditions) for on the Colecovision or Intellivision, back when I only had the Atari 2600. Even though I never saw or played it, seeing it makes me feel nostalgic for the time when such graphics could really impress me.
Continental Circus has the coolest crash I have ever seen for that time! If you rear end another car going full speed, your car will turn diagonally and flip multiple times before exploding the same way you saw here. Given the technology of the time, it’s a very impressive sight, and it’s hard to be mad when you see something like that.
Gun Buster (1992) was really something; An actual arcade FPS just before Doom invaded our PCs! It's like they _knew_ games like that were going to be major.
Also worth a mention: some of the home ports, and not necessarily because the port itself was any good. For instance, the C-64 version of Rastan was bugged, and impossible to finish as published. But the cover art? Oof. Now, THAT was impressive. It was painted by Tim Hildebrandt, so you'd kind of expect that. Unfortunately, that particular work is hard to find online--the few scans I've of it are either on the small side, or have damage in places.
Nice video but I believe you forgot a very important taito game called stratovox from like 1980 , it was I believe the first video game that had speech
I always thought Battle Fantasia was an Arksys game it must have been licensed through them would be awesome to see a sequel for that I felt it was one of the most Underatted hidden fighter games even though it had a small roster it's mechanics n gameplay combo system ate well balanced....
taito siempre fue mas tecnica que centrada en historias . sega y nintendo centraron mas en lso personajes con las limtiaciones tecnicas, taito era una bestia grafica
My Top 10 Favorite Taito Arcade Game of all-time 10. Space Invaders 9. Darius 8. Halley's Comet 7. Volfied 6. Front Line 5. Elevator Action 4. Arkanoid 3. Chase H.Q. 2. Bubble Bobble 1. Rainbow Island
Do u know the japanese game, pac man concept but it's a blue egg caterpillar that extends? World 1 is island theme with crabs as ghost and world 3 or 4 is poker card theme.
Rastan is my favorite. I left all my new generation consoles aside just to be able to play these games on a Linux retro-gamimg distro. I am happy that I grew up in the 80's and had a chance to play some of these gems.
OK...It's Time for the Times of One of the Best Arcade Companies of all time...Taito...So prepare yourselves to enter the world of the creators of Space Invaders and Arkanoid!!

Wow! TAITO has a lot more amazing games than even I knew about, and I thought I had played many of their games over the years In the arcades. Great video!
It's pretty rad that Taito was still making 2D arcade games into the mid-2000s.
so was Capcom and Snk. I think they just didn't have the resources to produce 3D games at the time so they hung on to 2D for a bit longer.
Like people with taste.
We still have 2D games,thanks god.

Awesome video !! Taito made some of the best arcade games !! One of my favorite developers !!
Wow! Taito is so crazy good! I knew they were good and made a lot of games but not this much! Impressive company.
TAITO has made some of my favorite arcade games of all time. The Darius and Ray series and Elevator Action Returns are some of my favorites.
Great compilation. I need to play the Darius games. Good thing a number of them came out on Switch
The Bust-A-Move games were always my jam (my favorite being 4). The many iterations of Space Invaders and Bubble Bobble were also great fun.
absolutley love these games from the great company of taito!!
Some great games from the great days of the arcade...
My all time greatest taito games to play are Bubble bobble and New Zealand Story
Agree 100%✌
They are both my top favourite games!

Que buen juego, buenos diseños, buenas peleas de jefes, buena ambientación acompañada de un gran soundtrack...
Always thanks to your videos.
It’s with best of videos like these than I discovered many old treasures who are now nostalgic classic to me.
Chiky boys,legend of heroe tonma,dark seal 2,black heart,road to the sword,rabio lepus,hucha mecha fighters...and many more...

Superman was a great game, Cadash, the greatest fantasy arcade game.
Taito was a big part of my childhood.

Front Line is probably my favorite arcade game ever.

Screw your "next generation" gaming. Playstation this and Xbox that, These are the games i wanna play.

Muito obrigado, de verdade!
Frontline, elevator action, zoo keeper, and many others were quarter munchers in my day.
Gun Buster (1992) was really something; An actual arcade FPS just before Doom invaded our PCs! It's like they _knew_ games like that were going to be major.
Also worth a mention: some of the home ports, and not necessarily because the port itself was any good.
For instance, the C-64 version of Rastan was bugged, and impossible to finish as published. But the cover art? Oof. Now, THAT was impressive. It was painted by Tim Hildebrandt, so you'd kind of expect that. Unfortunately, that particular work is hard to find online--the few scans I've of it are either on the small side, or have damage in places.
The legend of kage was the best taito game I ever played.
I had the Taito collection on XBOX we need more volumes for all the games.
7:50 Then Konami in 1986, took inspiration by this and they changed Salamander in Lifeforce in the US.
Bubble Bobble & Rastan - number 1
Missing Stratovox which is an iconic game. I believe the first arcade game to use synthesized sound.
The New Zeland Story and Liquid Kids are the most beautiful platforms of Taito
Taito of Japan, Taito of America.... they're all good!!
Vale la pena jugarlos todos
Some of these really need a re-release *coughElevatorActionReturnscough*
Some of their games also use “GOAL IN! " when you complete the level, not just Rainbow Islands only.
Battle Fantasia was actually Arc Systems. The game was just designed on the Taito Type X2 Board.
You know what's missing the original Double Dragon game with spike and hammer and Double Dragon 2 the revenge
Thankz Taito for a c😎😎l Videogame Childhood
🛸👾🚀SHMUPZ🚁🚂🕹
I miss japanese game developers
They still exist, Capcom or Nintendo are on the top, Sega still make a games.
Nice video but I believe you forgot a very important taito game called stratovox from like 1980 , it was I believe the first video game that had speech
I missed Superman arcade
The best Superman video game imo
I always thought Battle Fantasia was an Arksys game it must have been licensed through them would be awesome to see a sequel for that I felt it was one of the most Underatted hidden fighter games even though it had a small roster it's mechanics n gameplay combo system ate well balanced....
タイトーというより、東亜のゲームが好きでした。でもタイトーが無かったら東亜は日の目を見なかったかも。そういう意味でタイトーは偉大だと思います。
taito siempre fue mas tecnica que centrada en historias . sega y nintendo centraron mas en lso personajes con las limtiaciones tecnicas, taito era una bestia grafica
Thanks!

This makes me think of when I discovered how to use MAME back in 1999.
Was Twin Qix an unreleased prototype?
Rastan Saga 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Light bringers,warrior blade y Rambo 2 son los mejores juegos de taito.
Do u know the japanese game, pac man concept but it's a blue egg caterpillar that extends? World 1 is island theme with crabs as ghost and world 3 or 4 is poker card theme.
From the cute to the bizarre, Taito earns it's reputation as one of the Big 5 of arcade games, the others being Capcom, Konami, Data East & SNK.
and Sega and Nintendo
Midway as well
@@Kourumeme Only as a bit player.
