Mini Golf

Cop 01

Aggressors of Dark Kombat

Mini Golf is frustrating as heck. Maybe you're supposed to have a track ball?

Cop 01 is kind of cool in a plaform/run n gun kind of way.

Aggressors of Dark Kombat is a traditional fighter, but I didn't see any scoring, and I suck at fighting games, so I'm going with Cop 01 for my vote this week.

@obsidianspider one more vote for "Cop 01" here. :-)

Unfortunately I won't get a chance to try these out before Wednesday, mini golf looks fun but I guess if the control lets it down then it may not be a good choice.

As I can't actually try these in time, I'll abstain from voting this week. I'll be back in time to play the winner though.

@obsidianspider Yes, Mini Golf is a trackball game (works great!). It can be pretty fun with friends. If you don't have a trackball it's not worth playing at all. I have to unmap the joysticks too, as it is just too easy to bump them.

Yeah I would have picked Mini Golf as I love playing it on my stand-up MAME arcade machine since it has a track ball but since this is a retropie poll I went with A.O.D.C.

Cop 01 won.

obsidianspider · 28 Dec 2016, 18:44

I had to try out my Genesis Pi a bit and I'm really enjoying Cop 01. Such a weird name for a game, but it's fun.

33,300 to get the competition going.

(After game over you're taken right to the high score screen and then back into the demo screens, this wasn't taken while I was still playing.)

@meleu Again no cabinet artwork available. And again an original flyer exists but main image is a picture of a girl in bikini.
Very basic (poor) marketing approach ! On top they not even used a nice model :-))

Seriously I don't think of making an overlay with that; does it relate to the game in any way ?
Only usable part would be the game logo but that's not enough to create a decent overlay.

There's another flyer that shows some how to play instructions but it's totally in japanese ....

Suggestions ?

obsidianspider · 28 Dec 2016, 19:39

@UDb23 We need a photo of @meleu wearing a jet pack like the main character in the game and you can use that ;)

UDb23 · 28 Dec 2016, 19:41

@obsidianspider :-))

meleu · 28 Dec 2016, 23:52

@obsidianspider I'm not good with cosplaying :-)

@UDb23 can we suggest a mainstream game? Example: when I receive guests with children at my home they usually like to play The Simpsons. Would you make an overlay for this game?

UDb23 · 29 Dec 2016, 08:26

@meleu this one ?

meleu · 29 Dec 2016, 11:57

@UDb23 exactly! :-)

UDb23 · 29 Dec 2016, 16:42

@meleu OK. Will be my next overlay.

mediamogul · 29 Dec 2016, 17:18

@meleu said in MAME ROW #14: Cop 01:

they usually like to play The Simpsons.

Most would say that out of the dozens made, this is the only good Simpsons game out there. I would argue that 'The Simpsons: Hit & Run' is also amazing, but they're both great games regardless.

UDb23 · 29 Dec 2016, 18:06

@meleu ... Next.. right after this one ;-)

UDb23 · 30 Dec 2016, 19:54

@meleu There's something for you here.
;-)

GtBFilms · 31 Dec 2016, 02:50

@obsidianspider that's a decent score, I've only been able to get 18,000 so far!

meleu · 31 Dec 2016, 05:52

@GtBFilms yeah! @obsidianspider got a decent score indeed.

I'm on a trip with friends and family but I brought my raspi. I've got 30k but didn't take a picture because I didn't beat the 33k of @obsidianspider . I will try harder soon. :-)
