What is your favorite under rated MAME game?

[hanzmoleman007]

This thread is intended to get you out playing all those older under rated games.

I always liked roc 'n rope and jail break. :)

[Jale]

Killer Instinct and Killer Instinct 2 :)

[Zach]

Umm KI and KI2 were some of the most popular games when they came out :confused:

[Jale]

Not in my country though :)

[hanzmoleman007]

Anyone ever played Sinistar or APB in the arcade sitdown cab?

[othello]

I Liked Frogger, Pacman and Space Invaders. But they weren't really underrated, more like very popular...

[Genome]

joust was always a good game. i think it was an old midway release. they re-released it on nes at one point though. its a very addictive one :my_rambo:

[hanzmoleman007]

Joust was excelent! I even killed the fast dyno bird that flies around when you take too long to finish the level. Never really liked joust 2 though.

My ultimate favorite classic would have to be dig dug. I loved the cabinet art!

[ragericho]

[m_lovitt]

under-rated??? I really dont know I got mame for one reason Pac-man (and all of the related titles super pac man, pac jr mrs pac-man ect...) how ever I have so much trouble config'ing "mame32" I never use it :((

[SPD FRK]

I like odd titles based on something different. There are way too many knock offs in the world whether it be cars, looks or even movies. Show me that you put some thought into it and you've got my attention. On that note, Snacks and Jaxson (http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=S&game_id=9595) is one I still play when I find myself twiddling thumbs. Based on the game of Jacks, it shows real thinking outside the box I believe.

[Alexander_13]

vendetta lol,cadilacs and dinosaurs,captain commando, all that beat them up types violent storm etc

[Epsi]

My fav at the arcades was always Time Crisis 2, playing with a buddy. But I dont think it works in Mame...

[alcoatjez]

vendetta lol,cadilacs and dinosaurs,captain commando, all that beat them up types violent storm etc

Excellent choice. Beat'm ups are also my first choice on the arcade emus. Nothing beats a good old 2-player beat'em up :)

[Dave The Man]

Time Lord for Nes!

[alcoatjez]

Time Lord for Nes!

[ubr]

es.pra.de
Dimahoo
Sengoku Ace 1 (2nd one horizontal, i like vertical...)

[zeldafreak1223]

my favorite actual arcade game was probably simpsons. its not exactly underrated, cuz every has wasted a quarter or two on it at least once in their life, but not many people enjoyed it.

the funniest homebrew game for mame would have to be sex trivia. it made me laugh:D

[Spellsong]

Baseball Stars 2
Blazing Star
Fighter's History
Crossed Swords
Saturday Night Slammasters (Grew up with the SNES version)
Ring of Destruction (Slammasters 2)
The Super Spy
World Heroes Series
Far East of Eden/Kabuki Klash

[MADNESSTIGER]

Agree partly with Spellsong... Baseball Stars 2 (Neo-Geo/Arcade)

Others I enjoy include:

> Sunset Riders
> Football Champ
> Street Hoop/Street Slam
> Michael Jackson - Moonwalker
> SEGA Touring Car Champsionship

Could go on forever, plenty of 'hidden' gems when you go down the MAME catalogue!

...talking of 'gems'...

> Super Gem Fighter (the missus loves it!)

[Epsi]

Its probably very lame and predictible of me, but the only mame games i play are cps 2 and neogeo... My favourites are any Metal Slug game, Xmen vs Street Fighter and Capcon vs Marvel.

[AnAutisticDog]

I dont know much about MAME so sorry if these dont count.
Primal Rage:D
Revolution X:D

[HAYDEN76]

Jail break , punchout, gunsmoke, mat mania, are mine

[gforce75]

Haha, man... that baldbull guys rocks in Punchout rocks! Imagine a punchout 3 for PS3!?

[HAYDEN76]

[Youngy 360]

I don;t know if youv'e heard of it but HotDog Storm is quite good ;)

[Hrothgar]

I can only think of one that probably hasn't been mentioned. Old goldy from Nintendo that was a Japan-only release: Sheriff. Had the graphics of an atari 2600,

[willyham]

Elevator Action...all the way BABY! classic platformer!!! and everytime u play its different...making a hugely lasting game!:D

[jpcline004]

Having a lot of fun w/ Shadow Dancer.

oh heck yeah. I also like Sengoku and Super Buster Bros. Not sure if they are "under rated" but they don't get as much attention as they deserve.
