Hi guys,

 

Back with Madlittlepixel. Here we see him doing an unboxing review on the Arcade Stick Pro Christmas Edition. Enjoy. :)

 

From the description,

"The Neo Geo Arcade Stick Pro was an awesome device. It is an arcade stick with Neo Geo games built in that could also be used on other consoles or PC. This Christmas Edition includes all the released accessories, minus HDMI cable, and now has MVS mode!"

Hi guys,

 

This morning we are with Retrograndad. Here we see the kind sir with his project that he recently finished on a Neo-Geo 1 slot bartop unit. Looks really cool. Happy to see others in the community accomplishing their dreams and producing their own units for themselves. Nothing like building something with your own two hands. Makes you feel you can accomplish anything.  Enjoy. :)

 

From the description,

"Well this was my 1st Project in Lockdown (1) A project started last year for a PC or Pi, but i had lost interest and had no time to get it done, and so the project sat half done in the shed waiting for the right moment... that was the moment when i won my Neo Geo 1 slot, I had some unused parts in the shed an old joystick some buttons a speaker set and an amp i had been using for something else, all low cost parts just in backup.

 

So i finished my drink and got to work!... But I lost the building footage so i only have photos that makes this video is a little slide show with caps, i hope you don't mind also the music is from Bensound.com... so it is what it is!! Hope you enjoy the video"

ITEM REVIEWED

The Last Blade: Beyond the Destiny (Switch) Review

AUTHOR

SquallSnake

POSITIVES

Large roster of fighters, each with two fighting styles
Lots to unlock
Survival and Time Attack modes are well done
2 players on 1 console is awesome

NEGATIVES

Takes forever to unlock the good stuff, grinding required
The soundtrack isn’t the best and backgrounds are limited
Rewind option is a godsend when playing on Hard, but still no Save State feature

FULL REVIEW
 
 

SNK has released another NEOGEO Pocket Color (NGPC) fighting game to the Nintendo Switch eShop, The Last Blade: Beyond the Destiny, alongside the previously released Gals’ Fighters, King of Fighters R-2, and Samurai Showdown! 2. Like these other fan favorite fighters, the NGPC edition of The Last Blade features approachable gameplay for all skill levels but also depth for those who want to master the dual fighting style mechanics.

The Last Blade has a couple differences that make it stand out. First are the fighters themselves. Instead of fighting with fists and feet, everyone uses a weapon. Weapons range from a variety of swords, to pikes, to an old fighter that attacks with a fishing pole and sea creatures. This is important to note because of the parry system. When weapons strike, the clash results in a parry, bounce-back system. Even though it might sound a little complicated, worry not as players can button mash their way through the Story mode on the easier settings. The highest difficulty provides a significantly steeper challenge, so skill will be required to defeat the often cheap AI tactics. Finishing the story mode on the highest setting is the only way to obtain the best endings, however.

The other big difference comes from the quantity of unlockables that are available.  Each successful match rewards the player with points. These points are then used to unlock endings, scrolls (which can adjust fighting capabilities), and even a couple mini games. Having so much to unlock means the carrot is always dangled in front of the player but the problem comes from the speed in which anything is unlocked. Not only does the difficult story mode need to be completed with each character to have the opportunity to unlock endings, the number of points it takes to open the best content takes a ton of time and grinding.  The hidden baseball and shooter-like mini games are some of the best content available but having it locked behind a timed paywall is a steep price to pay.

 

To keep players engaged to earn those precious unlocking points, there are additional modes besides the typical Story campaign.  Survival challenges the player to defeat as many enemies with a limited life bar, providing additional objectives along the way at a chance to increase score. Outside of the Training mode, this is a great way to really experiment with the two different fighting styles of each character and hon those parrying skills.  Time Attack is also unique as the player has an unlimited life bar but is stacked against the clock.  The higher number of take downs in 60 seconds, the more points that are awarded. These modes are great short-burst time wasters to help grind for points.

The same quality of life features in the other NGPC Switch releases continue here too. There are numerous border options, the ability to zoom the screen, high res scans of the instruction manual, and even an option to rewind are welcomed features. Easily the best feature, however, is the ability to play 2-player VS mode using one console. This originally required two NGPC consoles, two copies of the game, and a link cable when played on original hardware. Unfortunately, one feature was cut from the original release – the ability to trade scrolls. This option was probably rarely used with the original release so it isn’t a huge deal but important to mention for fans of the original release.

 

The Last Blade: Beyond the Destiny is of similar quality as the other NGPC Switch fighting game releases. The chibi art style is just as adorable and the overall mechanics have that NGPC familiar flavor. The good news is, SNK is now running out of other fighting games to port to Nintendo’s console. This hopefully means that The Match of the Millennium is coming soon/next.

Hi guys,

 

Back with lukemorse1. Been a while since we seen him. So here's a cool video on his NGCD collection. Enjoy. :)

 

From the description, 

"Here is a very quick overview of my neo geo cd collection. Completely off the cuff and unscripted so there are tons of mistakes in the video. Some opinions on the games may differ from person to person which is understandable but just wanted to run though the games I have. (in no particular order) to show the collection."
