I'll talk about anything that anyone wants :) If you have a topic you'd like me to cover, please don't hesitate to let me know, I'd love to do my own little Fortefyre magic too it!
@@Fortefyre How about talking about Kasumi Ninja for the Atari Jaguar, and the false advertising that occurred in the gaming magazines months after its release? Most anyone that has talked about this game has completely omitted that issue from their review, or didn’t fully do their research. I should know. I used to own the game back in the day and it pissed me off. I was expecting a fuller game with richer experience.
I think the best way to address it would be to make a video about 10 instances of false advertising in video game history. Would that be of interest to you?
I remember the only place I ever saw the vs cabinets was at a campground about an hour and a half outside where I grew up. They had a few of them. I remember being like 7 and being blown away that I was playing castlevania in an arcade
Couple of notes on these. First, it was possible for the red Vs. cabinets to have two different games loaded. One of our local restaurants had one in their waiting area. It had Vs. Super Mario Bros. on one side and Vs. Stroke & Match Golf on the other. They also had a second red cabinet in the bar area, but that one had Vs. Baseball on both sides. I never saw a standup dual set up with two different games, but if it can be done on one, it can probably be done on the other too. Second, Vs. Slalom cabinets actually came with ski controls attached (not sure if this was all of them or just some). One of my local movie theaters had it in the late 80s and I played it a fair amount. Instead of just using the generic 1 joystick/2 buttons control panel, you actually stood on a pair of skis while holding a pair of custom joysticks. There are pics of these cabs online. You used the joysticks (representing ski poles) to control your speed and leaned on the skis to control your direction. The buttons were on top of the joysticks. It still wasn’t that great of a game, but the extra immersion made it more fun than the NES version at least.
The names for the cabinet types are Unisystem for the uprights with one game and Dualsystem for the uprights with two games. It’s probably not the official name, but the sit down cabinets are commonly called red tents because of their appearance. The upside, by the way, to having the same game in both sides of a red tent or Dualsystem cabinet is that you can have up to 4 players in a few games. I know Vs. Tennis is one, where you can play doubles with 2 players to each team.
I'm a massive NES fan but I never knew there was a Vs. Tennis! ...or Vs. Baseball ...or ...other things. You have an easy-going approach to these videos and I appreciate that in your response to comments you keep it casual and relaxed, with light-hearted responses seemingly meant to infer the fun childhood it appears you had. I also appreciate the occasional vulgar language! A+ channel, don't fuck it up! ;)
I was a fan of Donkey Kong arcade in 1981, Donkey Kong Junior in 1982, and Mario bros in 1983. The moment I seen Super Mario bros VS arcade in 1985/1986....I was hooked!
I don't usually take a half hour to watch any video game stuff but this one was worth it. If you can find this old Java phone game not it's a variation of Tetris called Pent. Instead of four pieces, each piece has five. It makes it really challenging and mighty cool. Though the difficulty is unfair and it could have been programmed better. I wish someone would reprogram this because the concept is amazing and super cool.
I would love to have a red tent one day and a Unisystem cabinet with a light gun, so every game possible can be played on them. I think my favorite difference is the addition of the bonus round in Vs. Duck Hunt, which allows you to shoot the dog. And if you listen carefully, the music has added effects also, especially in Vs. Hogan’s Alley, where the music is way improved over its NES counterpart. And another Vs. game brought me one of my proudest gaming achievements, when I beat Vs. Castlevania deathless on the PS4. As for games I remember seeing growing up, I remember seeing a few Unisystem and Dualsystem cabinets, along with a red tent at a local bowling alley that had Vs. Castlevania on one side and Vs. RBI Baseball on the other. As for the other cabinets, I remember seeing Vs. Hogan’s Alley, Vs. Duck Hunt (never got to play that in arcade form until I was an adult), Vs. Excitebike, Vs. TKO Boxing, Vs. Golf, Vs. Gradius, Vs. Baseball (never got to play that one in arcade form) and of course Vs. Super Mario Bros. and the two I mentioned earlier. The Vs. version of Super Mario Bros. was the first form I played it in. Edit: Vs. Excitebike does have a bonus round not found in the NES version, that comes every 2 or 3 tracks. It’s basically a series of ramps where you try to jump over trucks, some of which are stacked, and you get a nice bonus for making it to the end of the round before time runs out. Oh, and great news for Urban Champion fans - the arcade version is available on the Switch eshop as part of the Arcade Archives line! It costs $7.99 to download, and like you said, it’s more or less the same as the NES game, though the music is different during the fight scenes, and with added instruments during the tracks that are the same, and it also has a high score table like most other Vs. games, though the title screen just says Urban Champion, not Vs. Urban Champion.
This is a great response! Thank you for enjoying the video and adding substance to our experience in the comments! I'm so jealous you got to see all of these in real life!
The only one I remember playing in the arcades was Super Mario Bros. When I got it at home, I was ecstatic. I also did remember the arcade version being much more difficult.
Thanks for putting together and showcasing all the VS games because I didn't realize there were as many as there are. Just wanted to provide more info about VS Castlevania as it's one of my favorite franchises and know both the Arcade and NES versions well. For one you take way more damage in the Arcade than you do on the NES. For example in the NES on on the first and second level normally you would lose 2 units of health if hit by an enemy, 3 units of health on the 3rd level, and 4 units of health by every enemy for the rest of the game. Now, it's been a while since I did a full playthrough of the Arcade but I know for sure on the first level enemies do 4 units of damage right off the bat, but I'm not 100% sure if it increases to 6 and 8 damage later or just stays at 4 units damage. Another difference in Arcade is they greatly reduce your time at each level where you pretty much have to book it to the boss and hope you beat them before the timer runs out on you. Here and there but not too often certain candles that normally held stopwatches just give you a big heart instead. Then finally, after you defeat a boss you get less bonus points thereby making it harder to earn extra lives, pretty much requiring you to uncover all the hidden treasures for any shot at extra lives. Castlevania is already tough as it is but the VS Arcade is so brutal I wouldn't even recommend it for beginners or casuals. 😃
Well they aren't ALL of them, just the American ones that had a NES port equivalence :P. Turns out there's alot more in Japan! Have you endured the suffering that is Haunted Castle yet? LMAO
@@Fortefyre Oh okay thanks for the tip and will do more research on that. But man Haunted Castle? Dude, that game is so busted to where it's like..somebody needs to explain what happened? I pray there's some Japanese interview explaining so in a magazine somewhere that just hasn't been translated to English yet lol 😄
Meanwhile Bandai Namco casually releasing VS. THE ADVENTURE OF VALKYRIE: The Legend of the Key of Time and VS. SUPER XEVIOUS MYSTERY OF GUMP like it was no thang
I played a few of these games in the arcade in the late 1980's and early 1990's. Some notes: 1. Vs Super Mario Bros - Level 7-4 had a different solution to the maze and was way harder because of that. 2. Vs Dr. Mario - The ending screen after level 20 was different than the NES version. 3. I never saw the Vs Tetris version that you showed in this video. I only ever saw the Atari version which is almost the same as the Tengen NES version.
What is your highest score on the NES Tetris? I've only been able to break 496k and that kid who broke the game was freaking awesome. Have a awesome day bro!!! PEACE
Regarding Tengen, by 1988 Nolan Bushnell had been gone from Atari for a very long time. He departed in 1980 so, shortly after Atari was bought by Warner. By 1988, Warner had sold the company to Jack Tramiel. Atari/Tengen disliked the 5 releases/year, console exclusivity, and manufacturing exclusivity restrictions that Nintedo imposed on its licensees, so they tried to get around that by manufacturing their own cartridges, and used a clone of the 10NES lockout chip to do so. Unfortunately they did not cleanly reverse engineer the chip, and in fact stole the code embedded on it, violating Nintendo's copyright. As a result Nintendo severed all relationship with Tengen, and they were no longer an official licensee.
@@Fortefyre You might be right on that one. Just thought of another. The first Goonies game. I remember looking everywhere for the cartridge but only saw it in the arcade.
I don’t know if you own a Nintendo Switch, but Vs. Urban Champion is available to buy digitally for $7.99. Many of Nintendo’s arcade games are available to buy as far as the Arcade Archives series goes. Hell, Vs. Castlevania and Vs. Gradius are both available on all current consoles to buy digitally. Only Atari RBI Baseball, Mach Rider, Dr. Mario, Tetris, Freedom Force, Platoon, Top Gun, Sky Kid, TKO Boxing, and the light gun games in their Vs. form aren’t available to digitally purchase. If I’ve missed any, correct me.
People in the modern day if they want to try Vs.Super mario bros. and don't have the money to buy an arcade cabinet, Just buy the simulation of owning the arcade cabinet on Nintendo switch, it is called arcade archive, and the payed online services is not required for the online feature since it was release before the payed online subscription, they are 3 mode to pick, the left mode is high score mode and that one need only connection, you just play untill you finish the game, or get a gameover while trying to do the best score and you cannot pause, and only have one game over with no continue, and you can't adjust the setting. The right most is caravan mode need online connection can't pause can't change setting, but you only have 5 minutes to do a high score, they are no continued once you game over. The middle option Vs. Super mario bros. is just the normal arcade of Vs. Super mario bros. But you can change the setting if you pause that simulated owning the cabinet, there is also interupt save so places where there is just makes stuff up to make you lose. That is done on purpose to eat quarters back then when it was actually only available in the arcade. So in my opinion it is harder then Super mario bros. the lost levels. Since Super mario bros. the lost levels does have the high bounce mechanic on flying turtle, and lost level the make stuff up is normally the player fault or a broken controler, since they jump as soon as they run, so they don't have full speed and that is why they miss the jump. While in the arcade version even a small jump can be miss by the game itself trolling, you jump with low momementum to make a tiny jump the arcade version randomly decided to either give you more momentum out of no where to over shot the jump and die, or completely remove all momentum so you don't make the tiny jump. And randomly you press the jump on time well aware of the input lag and it just ignore the jump button completly.
I think Vs. Duck Hunt is a more full-featured game in arcades than the home version, and it's not just because you get the satisfaction of blasting that damned dog. Also, was Vs. The Goonies mentioned at all? That never got an NES version per se, but it was available on PlayChoice-10 and Famicom. The Vs. version does what Konami did with Vs. Castlevania, boosting the damage enemies do to you. It was annoying in Vs. Castlevania, but downright game breaking in Vs. The Goonies.
Second, I am to graduate this December with my Master's in Philosophy from seminary and then go on to get my PhD with my plan being Christianity and video games, particularly our need for stories. My parents will be down this December and I plan to buy Golf on the Switch, not because it's an awesome game, but because my Dad and I did used to enjoy playing that together.
It's one thing for people to point out how modern arcade games don't look any better than modern home console games. It's also another thing when you have a preference for the home console version in terms of looks over the original from back in the day; such as is the case for Ninja Gaiden. However, it's impressive just how unappealing looking the visuals of Versus Tetris are. They don't even have a demake charm to them unlike with Alien Syndrome NES, Mighty Final Fight NES, or even most famously Punch-Out NES.
Super Mario Bros 2 is an oddity. Those enhanced levels in VS Super Mario Bros, inspired the main infrastructure of Super Mario Bros 2 in Japan. In America we got a reskin of Doki Doki Panic. We did eventually receive the lost levels on the Allstars cart :)
What do you have in mind? Like an intro stinger? I always preferred just jumping into the action, but some of my other videos do have intros like RGGS, Generations, and Series Slayer.
Your commentary on tengen and Atari was a little on the incorrect side. Nolan Bushnell was gone from Atari long before the NES was released in the United States Atari was split in half between Atari computer and Atari games. I believe the name of the man who purchased Atari games was Nakajima. Check out the video that the gaming historian put out a few years back.
I laughed...I grew up playing golf and have always loved the nes Golf. I still play nes rounds of golf every once in a while. I have heard so many people say how much they hate nes Golf and it makes me laugh.
A Versus Gradius seems so pointless. Just play the system that version was actually made for in the first place. Heck, the separate Turbografx16 version is quite good; I even prefer its music over the original arcade.
WoooW i never trought that atari/tengen would becallowed to put baseball and tetris on those vs systems, in fact i trought that only nintendo will put their own games on it and nobody else, let alone tengen.
Tengen was originally licensed by Nintendo, when Gauntlet (not a Vs. game, but it was on PlayChoice 5 & 10) and R.B.I. Baseball first appeared. T&N were still on good terms at the time.
Nintendo may have exited the arcade market back then, but it makes me smile every time I see MarioKart at my local arcade.
Yeah, it's nice to see them. I don't know who makes those though.

14:20 hey buddy you're wrong about Will Smith and Men in Black you shot the only right one and he didn't shoot any wrong one that's why he got the job
Haha, facts!
oh no Platoon emotional damage 😭
I died a little inside. I had to play it twice for footage.
I laughed...I grew up playing golf and have always loved the nes Golf. I still play nes rounds of golf every once in a while. I have heard so many people say how much they hate nes Golf and it makes me laugh.
It's honestly not a bad game, I'm just bad at it lol.
Aside from VS. Baseball and VS. Tennis; I'd rather just play the NES versions for the others.
They are all great in their own way, but I believe I would be the same way.
A Versus Gradius seems so pointless. Just play the system that version was actually made for in the first place. Heck, the separate Turbografx16 version is quite good; I even prefer its music over the original arcade.
Absolutely!
WoooW i never trought that atari/tengen would becallowed to put baseball and tetris on those vs systems, in fact i trought that only nintendo will put their own games on it and nobody else, let alone tengen.
And then we have platoon 😂
Tengen was originally licensed by Nintendo, when Gauntlet (not a Vs. game, but it was on PlayChoice 5 & 10) and R.B.I. Baseball first appeared. T&N were still on good terms at the time.
Even though the graphics are way shittier I'd rather play tengen vs. tetris than vs. platoon
