Since the release of the SNK 40th Collection (thanks, Exodus) I’ve been really into that era. There was nothing like a decent port of Ikari I or II for any console until this collection, IMHO. A PCE two pack of both games packaged with a loop lever stick ala Forgotten Worlds would have been priceless. The game itself could easily be improved over the originals. And Sky Soliders. I don’t think this was ever ported to anything. It was a really good shooter. I was really surprised by Sky Soldiers on my copy of the collection. Such big sprites for 8-bit arcade hardware.

As far as I know Sky Soliders isn’t on the SNK 40th, it’s just in the museum section. I haven’t had as much time to play it as I’d like so I could be wrong. It’s very hard for me to understand modern gaming. Everything is in flux. It came with some games and then more were added by free DLC which doesn’t make any sense to me but whatever.

I think I'm confusing it with another game that is on the set.
Hold on....
This one here...

FYI....To get the above game you need to update your copy of the game to get the free DLC patch.

Btw, Sky Soliders is vert and looks like crap when stretched wide like in that video.

The recent release of Toki on the Switch got me thinking about that game and how both the NES and Genesis ports were pretty good, so I really wonder how a PCE port would have turned out.

I recall playing it in the arcade and liking it also. As for how and why it got a new release is beyond me...must be some underground Toki fan group out there.

Ghouls and ghost Bubble bobble Rastan 1 Ghouls 'n' Ghosts (Daimakaimura) did get a port on the SuperGrafx, which is considered closer to the arcade than the Genesis version. Agree that Rastan would have been awesome.

I'm gonna miss that old Bubble Bobble thread on PCEFX. Mind you I did start it years and years ago, and I haven't heard anything in a long time.

It has Psycho Soldier and Victory Road. How did I miss this compilation? Definitely going to buy a disc copy for my PS4 when it's out (thanks NIS America).
