Gawd I always wanted to do this so badly!

I know there's already a Youtube thread, but I think this deserves its own thread.

I noticed on Youtube, there hasn't been much love for the NEC systems spread around. Sure there has, but they've been nothing but official review videos, game intros, or if anything video games they would be predominantly games EVERYBODY knows about (i.e. Nintendo, Sega, Zelda, Mario) vs. fighter matches and combo videos, and lastly, anime and random FMV sequences from random next gen RPGs put into music videos infested with J-Pop.

Somebody's gotta be sick of running into all those, no doubt about it.

I invite anyone around here with capturing equipment to join me so I can start a movement to expose these niche masterpieces of classic gaming. Record yourselves playing your favorite games and put it out to the whole planet, whether it'd be on the TG/PCE, Duo, Supergrafx, or even the PCFX.

UPDATE: Footage of other Japanese obscure games on Famicom, Super Famicom, Mega Drive, FM Towns is welcome as well.

That's awesome, I can't wait to see all your other videos of PCE and SFC playing! By the way, I loved how you were trying to run to the finish before getting hit by that flying head at the end of stage 2, too bad he caught up with you

. You should make your own online-based video game show where you just record yourself playing games and review it while you play, like RetroCore .

More videos coming. Just taped myself beating PCE Ninja Gaiden, but I had to chop the video up in segments to fit Youtube standards.

Ninja Gaiden Acts 1-2

Great stuff again! Nice run through the first stage too

. Sorry, I just had to laugh when you got pissed when that damn dog knocked you off the ledge in stage 2, that was just hilarious

. I am sure that has happened to me before too.

Any chance someone can make a vid of one of the 'Bonk' series' - I would love to add something like that to Myspace profile?

Yeah I'll do that, taping myself beating Level 1.

More Ninja Gaiden vids. Act 3 Act 6

Cool. When I get my webcam back, I'll do a video of me of me doing Kaizou Chonin Shubibinman.

I did a quick one of Ai Cho Aniki level 1

The camera autofocus screws it up a little in places but hopefully I can fiddle with it for any future vids.

I saw this video too last night! Once again very neat stuff and I totally want to get that CD version now.

And thanks so much Paul for the Ai Cho Aniki video! You don't get to see videos for a game like that much, so that was a really nice thing to see. I really need to get the two PCE Cho Aniki games.

Sorry for the dumb question...but is that first video Samurai Ghost? If so, I'll need to pick up that one.

It's not that great.

I think it's a alright game, I mean sure, the animation's pretty funny looking like he's controlled by a marionette.

Sunteam Paul you get props for pitching in!

the 2nd level where you have to keep going forward to avoid the molten lava thats chasing you while fighting off the undead demons is soooo annoying in that Samurai Ghost >__<

Wow I should start sticking up stuff on that youtube too soon but I need a larger SD card for my camera in order to get some video footage

Ninja Spirit · « **Reply #14 on:** April 11, 2006, 01:23:33 PM »

Oh yeah not that it matters, but when you post your gameplay vids on youtube, put the location of where the video was recorded. I personally find it interesting seeing the game in action half a world away.

I like thinking stuff like, "wow this guy in Germany is good at Bonk" or this guy in England is good at Kaze Kiri" etc
