I end my #WeekOfArcade with a little classic from Tecmo... which I've actually just realised is as old as... me! 😅😅😅
Bomb Jack.
Save some famous locations around the world by collecting the bombs before they explode.

Alright everyone, sing it with me:

Ghost Squad.
If you asked someone to name a SEGA arcade shooting game, they'd probably think of The House of The Dead or Virtua Cop series.
But they also made this.
The Ghost Squad travel the world taking on terrorist threats.
Smash TV.
Imagine a game show with unlimited prizes, and unimaginable wealth if you win.
There's only one trouble, to get them, you have to battle through hordes of enemies in multiple arenas. 😅😅😅
Chase HQ.
Taito's original Shunt 'em Up had you chasing down criminals in a modified Porsche 928 & ramming them off the road.
Interesting how you could do so much damage to the criminal's car, while yours is immortal. 😅
Turbo Outrun.
A wild race across the USA in a Ferrari with... essentially Nitrous Oxide?
Yep. That's the sequel to Outrun, folks! 😅
I'll be honest, I think I prefer the C64 version. But the Mega Drive version is pretty good too.
Trying something a bit different this week.
We'll start with the C64 version of Bubble Bobble. One of my favourite versions of the game.
