Hello, friends. I ve done many a best ten list in my time here at TouchArcade, and I ve dedicated several to the Arcade Archives line of classic arcade ports on the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4.
Golden Week is behind us now in Japan, and that means Hamster is back to its quest of putting seemingly every NEOGEO game SNK owns the rights to on iOS and Android.
The Epic Games Store has announced its latest batch of free games for the week, replacing the previous ones with "Against All Odds," "Horizon Chase Turbo," and "Kao the Kangaroo." Users can claim these games for free until May 11.
The NEOGEO is generally characterized by, with only a few notable exceptions, fighting games and Metal Slug. Within a couple of years of its launch, the vast majority of the output on the console seemed to be mining (quite successfully) a few particular types of games.
Those who follow Hamster s Arcade Archives releases on the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 will know that the developer pretty clearly appreciates the shoot-em-up genre.
