Magical Chase Vs Cotton - which is better?

[Black Tiger]

Cotton will always play better thanks to the model 2 Saturn pad.

you lost me there??? we're talking about the PC Engine version here.
 

Yeah right, the PC Engine could never handle Cotton Boomerang, let alone the original game.

He's talking about the fact that you're talking about a SEGA SATURN controller, and presumably, the Sega Saturn version of Cotton....

in a TG thread where we are talking MC vs Cotton for TG.

Not to mention the fact that Cotton 1 isn't even on Saturn....

Series outline for the n00bs:

1.  Cotton:  System 16B, PCE, PS1, NeoGeo Pocket Color
2.  Cotton X68K:  X68000, this is based on Cotton 1, but it has a lot of changes including totally redrawn sprites, tons of added parallax and new backgrounds, plus exclusive bosses.  More of a "Cotton: Turbo."
3.  Cotton 2:  ST-V, Saturn
4.  Cotton Boomerang: ST-V Saturn (This is Cotton 2: Turbo essentially)
5.  Panorama Cotton:  MD
6.  Cotton 100%: SFC, PS1
7.  Rainbow Cotton: DC
8.  CR Cotton: PS2 (Pachinko game)

also there was a..
cotton 2 for windows95/98 in 1998
a cotton for S! Appli in 2007
a superlite1500 original cotton for PS3/PSP in 2007
and a superlite1500 cotton100% for PS3/PSP in 2007

SuperLite 1500 would be one of the japanese "Simple" series?

I was under the impression the "PS3 and PSP" games were just the PS1 version via digital download, did they actually get real phyiscal releases?

Also it should be noted the PS1/PS3/PSP (they are all the same thing really) ports of Cotton 1 is a bit different from the arcade.  They removed the 2nd loop completely, making the game much easier to clear, and oddly they actually changed a few of the magic attacks, they used some of the PS1's particle effects and look different to the 16B original.  And oddly they did add a new difficulty option that adds suicide bullets.  The music also doesn't sound quite right to my ears.   Been a while since I've heard them both back to back though.

The PCE port is a very good port.  Some colors were lost, and the fancier background effects were toned down, but gameplay is 99% the same as the 16B.  It's slightly easier due to the dragon boss having a total safe spot, if you can make it that far.       The arranged music is truly fantastic as well.

The X68K version is absolutely insane, but it's best appreciated if one has already 1cc'd the 16B/PCE versions.
