Beat Em Up Gems! Games List

PetroRie

@greenhulk haha the first image looks soooo WRONG!!!! Looks like a game in which you have to fight against the semen to avoid pregnancy haha. "Dont let anything come out of it!!!".

Jojo has also mini games in the story mode, the game is so freaking awesome. There are so many things to unlock, it should keep you busy for the couple days (if played with cheats) else couple weeks lol.

@PetroRie lol it is rather phallic.. I hope it doesnt harnass any 'special abilities', I have the neo geo versions but didnt know about the psx one so will get that later on.

Having no luck with the BOR stuff out of about 4 different ones only one loaded up past menu's (and went blank after.) I cant seem to find the SOR remake, maybe im looking in the wrong place?

Anyway, yet another co-op beat em up discovery.. Had a quick playthrough theres some fun bosses & stages!

Warrior Blade: Rastan Saga III - MAME/Arcade

@greenhulk
Nice find on Warrior Blade: Rastan Saga III. I had played that a long time ago and had forgot about it!

Having no luck with the BOR stuff out of about 4 different ones only one loaded up past menu's (and went blank after.)

That's what I was worried would happen. You should give the MS-DOS version a try!

I cant seem to find the SOR remake, maybe im looking in the wrong place?

It's not built into RetroPie and you have to go to this site for the instructions to add this "Extra" script:

The only issue I had with SOR Remake was how to exit the game and get back to EmulationStation.

Great list and discussion! This is the cleanest list of beat em' ups I've seen yet! Thank you! I can't get night slashers to boot either! Does anyone have any insight on that? I really want to play that game.

greenhulk

@quirk_unlimited thank you, this is all i keep getting when trying to load it, just goes to blank screen after that. Ive tried another version of it but wont boot at all

@greenhulk Same here! I've tried every version (clone/region) for mame2003 and advance mame none of them will load. And I am using the right romset with the right emulator. I've even tried the wrong roms. I've done searches on here for insight and all I've found are a couple people mentioning how good it is. But thanks again for this list!

BTW I wanted to add two more GBA titles
Gekido Advance: Kintaro's Revenge

Mame2010 loads Night Slashers with errors. I get like 35fps on my oc'd pi2, though.

@Omnija ah the Rushing Beat series. I always wanted to play them but I heard the american ports butchered the story by making up their own, removed scenes/intro and shortened the endings. Rushing Beat 1/ Rival Turf just got translated last year so I'll try that one.

Koryuu no Mimi looks interesting, you have "the power to control money and women" :D but it's a beat-em up for the Super Famicom. I tested the translated rom but the patch makes the game freeze in the first level in snes9x2010. The other emulators don't freeze the game but it makes controls unresponsive. Sigh...

Ane-San for the Pc-Engine CD. It's a fun beat-em up with an all girl cast. The grabs have some hair pulling:D. The game is weird, you can die in 2-3 hits but I think you can get stronger as you progress. The music is funny and amazing, one song is clearly a ripoff of "I need a hero".

More of a platform sort of beat em up, but very unique. I haven't really played much at least not till this weekend.

Snes - Great Battle III (2player)
Who doesn't like fighting as a gundam, or maybe a kamen rider or even voltron? Haven't gotten around to this one either. So i don't have much to say yet.
