Turbo and PCE games with simultaneous multiplayer

[Joe Redifer]

An editor I know from the website cooptimus.com is creating a list of multiplayer Turbo and PCE games.

Here's what he has so far:

[ul][li]Aeroblasters[/li][li]Bonk 3[/li][li]Burning Angels[/li][li]Buster Bros.[/li][li]Cadash[/li][li]Detana!! TwinBee[/li][li]Double Dragon II[/li][li]Double Dungeons[/li][li]Dungeon Explorer[/li][li]Dungeon Explorer II[/li][li]Ginga Fukei Densetsu Sapphire[/li][li]Monster Lair[/li][li]Ordyne[/li][li]Parasol Stars[/li][li]Shockman Series:[/li][li]Parasol Stars[/li][li]Shockman (Shubibinman 2)[/li][li]Shubibinman[/li][li]Shubibinman 3[/li][li]Splash Lake[/li][/ul]

Please let me know what games he's missed. Note that 2-player alternating multiplayer (like Yo Bro) does not count.

I'm wondering if I should have split this post into a Turbo half and a PCE half because I am now taking about PCE in the Turbo forum and that is against the rules.  Gonna ban myself in a sec...

EDIT:  I accidentally a word.

[SuperDeadite]

Metamor Jupiter (3-players!)

And all the Bombermans (how did you forget these?)

[Black Tiger]

Battle Royale
TV Sports games
SFII' and the rest of the fighters...

[DragonmasterDan]

Battle Lode Runner

[majors]

Salamander, Moto Roader 1/2 and Battlefield Wrestling '94 and sports games like TV Sports and World games.

Parasol Stars? Is that two player co-op?

Yeah Parasol Stars is. Don't forget Panic Bomberman too. Rainbow Islands, however isn't two player coop. Too bad too, it could really use it.

[Black Tiger]

I'm pretty sure Vasteel has a human vs human mode. The real time battles would be controlled at the same time.

[Necromancer]

Here's a few more to add to the list: 1943, Ballistix, Chew Man Fu, Color Wars, Don Doko Don, Faceball, Final Lap Twin, Forgotten Worlds (half-assed two-player via code), Galaxy Deka Gayvan, Hellfire S, Magicoal, Motteke Tamago, Mystic Formula, Psychic Storm, Puyo Puyo CD, Puyo Puyo CD Tsu, Salamander, and a ton of sports/quiz games.

And all the Bombermans (how did you forget these?)

I didn't.  He did.

How about Strip Fighter 2?

[Flare65]

I know Master of Monsters on Sega Genesis had a multi-player mode.  I know this game is on the PC Engine CD, but have never played it.  Can anyone confirm?

[DarkKobold]

Seeing as the name of the website is (Co-op)timus, I don't believe games like Bomberman, Battle Royale, Street Fighter 2, and etc count. It should be obvious from the name of the website.

The idea of this website is for games you can play WITH your friends, not AGAINST your friends.

Ha! Good point. 2-player+ co-operative play.

This is a list of all (I think) multitap games on the system.  It's both co-op games and versus, of course, but I bolded ones I know are co-op.  Am I missing any that should be bolded?  Note: I count sports games where the players play on teams (like, 2v2) as co-op titles.


Turbografx/PC Engine games require a TurboTap multitap for any simultaneous multiplayer modes -- the system has only one controller port.  The multitap supports up to five players.
