    Why does no one mention that Double Dragon on the NES doesn’t have 2 player co-op and the SMS does? &nbsp;That was a huge deal back in the day!

    How did you not mention Double Dragon being two player on SMS instead of single. HUGE advantage

    I had a SMS as a kid didn&apos;t have a NES

    Ghostbusters on SMS. the dots when you move around equate to how long you have to go in the driving sequence. So the goal would be to minimize your movement on the map. Also the two people walking around are the Gatekeeper and the Keymaster.

    Captain Silver on Master System infamously has two versions; the US one used a smaller cartridge size to shave down the cost, meaning it had to cut out several stages and the ending cut scene. The European and Japanese ones are more complete.

    The SMS version of Strider wasn&apos;t made by SEGA, &nbsp;but Tiertex, and the game&apos;s layout and stages are based upon the computer ports (also made by Tiertex)

    Hello, UK person here. Seeing a US YouTuber with a Greggs homage T-shirt really made me chuckle.

    Finally, I had the chance to see again Altered Beast for the NES, which I once played in the 90s.<br><br>Here where I live (Itatiba, Brazil), only one place had this game for rent, and it was difficult to get a chance to play since it was always rented to other kids.

    Loved Ghostbusters on SMS as a kid, but IIRC we never made it past the staircase segment at the time

    Playing Double Dragon with my brother in our Atari ST is one of my best child memories :)

    Loved Double Dragon on the Master System. &nbsp;I remember a buddy bringing his system over on a snow day. &nbsp;Bunch of us playing NES and the Master System. &nbsp;I just remember being so pleasantly surprised.

Aegis plays a clean stream instead of YouTube's player, so pre-roll ads, trackers, and fingerprinting never ride along. Drop Shields any time if you want the official player back.
