Two player Deep Blue would be laugh fest! For some reason though, I can't imagine the Thunder games being as fun with two players, not really sure why.

now that would be sweet. one person could aim guns to the right, and one to the left. Would need the difficulty to be increased alot tho.

Any platform game where one person controls movement and the other person controls jumping would be a real laugh.

I'm pretty sure I've recreated that scenario before a couple times with two people on one controller. :P

Final Zone II would have been cool with coop. A vs. mode in FZ II would have been cool as well - even up to 5 players. Sort of like Wizards of Wor, but top down Final Zone II style. I just think coop mode would have made sense with this game since there were a bunch of characters to choose from.

...unless this game actually is coop....

Final Zone would indeed be a lot more fun as two player co-op, especially if you could get into bitch slap contests.  Gotta love that game - watch your mouth or I'll slap ya again beeyotch!

Would a multi-tap allow this in 1 player games?

Uh, no.  A relatively simple controller hack would get the job done, though I can't see it being worth the effort.  Sure it'd be funny for a few moments, then it'd just be as frustrating as all get out.

My thoughts exactly. If the tap worked sweet, but not worth hacking a controller to do that.

In Aero Blasters you can start a two player game and control both ships with a single controller. I used to do that all the time. It let's you take advantage of the super-powerful screen-blast you can do by having both players charge and release simultaneously. Also doubles your firepower.

It was the way I first managed to beat the game.

You mean one of these?

Anyone who's never run a Duo Tap through an "extension cord" before should try it out.

Nat, let me know what you think of the game after playing it with twice the firepower  :)

BTW, level 2 is, in some ways, harder with this trick.

I can think of another,Side Arms even when it was released again on cd it lacked the 2p for wich the arcade version had.

Enjoyed that shooter so much i wish i could have played,it with a friend back then.
