Its called Taito memories Pocket for the Japanese release which has been out for a while yes. But the ENGLISH version with a different name (Taito Legends) just came out recently. I prefer the English version as I can't read Japanese unfortunately.

This is a pretty good collection of classic games with a few remakes that are a much added bonus. Not as good as the Capcom Collections but still worth it for any retro gamer.

Someone needs to release The Ninja Warriors by Taito for the PSP that would be sick 2 players. it is basically unplayable on all the console emulators because of sceen limitations. the arecade was 2 or 3 screens long?

Is there a Raine emu for psp?

Get the Jap release if you want Rainbow Islands (like me!), as the *******s removed that from the UK version...

the version of rainbow islands on the jap release is ALL wrong!!

it's got that stupid Rainbow Islands Extra thing where the monsters fire guns an stuff. it just isnt rainbow islands!

personally i prefer the amiga version of NZS to the mame version.... it just feels better. one of my all time faves though.

i'd buy this if it had arkanoid 2 and regular rainbow islands on it though.... and bubble bobble.

/\ /\ If I hear its better on the Amoeba ONE more time! :mad: Your obesessed man! :eek: While we're doing NZS history - the Master System version of NZS is quite possibly the most faithfull conversion - that said you just cant beat the original arcade version :p (the Speccy version was pretty sweet whilst Im thinking about it... :rolleyes: )

without a shadow of doubt the amiga one is the closest to the arcade!! (and of COURSE i'm obsessed... it's the best computer ever made! i only stopped using one full-time a got myself a PC in the year 2000.... my amiga was l33t!! )

i'm sure there must be some close ties between the amiga and speccy versions of NZS though (regarding development) becasue hidden away on the amiga title screen in black ink on a black background are the words " (c) 1982 Sinclair Research Limited" :eek:

no word of a lie!

its no wonder the speccy version has the same feel to it.

tried the arcade, nes, c64 and amstrad versions, and none of them are as good as the amiga version imho. the speccy is defeinatly not far behind though!
