So that's what's doing that...


I don't think blowing smiles up to 900x900 is a high priority when designing a web browser. For general graphics zooming =< 2x it works fine.


Still, I do prefer the chunky huge smile.

There's no way I've seen to fix it. :(

Never played any version of Astyanax, but NES Strider > arcade.



Arcade Strider had wooden animation of the worst sort, controls that felt off because of the wooden animation, speed that somehow seemed too slow, sound like a 1st gen Genesis game (and NES music > Genesis/CPS1 music anyway), and difficulty and memorization of the not fun/frustrating type.

If anything, Firefox 3 >>> other browsers because of the PicLens add-on.

It sounds like you need to play Three Wonders.

Oh yeah and don't forget about Bionic Commando arcade. oh my GOD.

Covered under "etc". :D

The BC arcade game bums me out. There's no reason for it to be bad, Ghouls & Ghosts-esque graphics on better hardware, right? Yet it totally burns the coffee when it comes down to playing the damn thing.

I have placed all those who prefer the NES Strider to the arcade version on a list. These people are not to be trusted under any circumstances.

It didn't do much new gameplay-wise (although the wall climbing was uncommon for the time) but I do think NES Ninja Gaiden was special. It was the whole package of excellent control, art direction, and catchy music. I consider it a landmark game for cinemas as well. I don't think it was better than Shinobi overall but it was close; the faster pacing gave it its own feel.

Punch Out. That's all that needs to be said.
