Let's see, the ones everyone knows are Contra FC, Ninja Gaiden FC, Section Z FC, and the Double Dragon games, in addition to the aforementioned Top Secret FC. Or maybe they just didn't survive to the end? That jump is a bitch! _ you left the last boss's gorenographically detailed exploding headshot in?! What in the heck! Must've been a Scanners fan on the team. On NES you make a short hop across a spike pit to apparently terrify (or impress?) him into submission. ON YOUR KNEES PRISONER, TAKE YOUR POSITION (・｀W´・)

*more enemies basically, dials the intensity up a bit - also they edited out a shooting star for some reason on NES! Along with several truckloads worth of Swastika-stamped sheet metal, brickwork and other miscellaneous scenery, as you'd expect. I used to think so - on sheer quality it most certainly ranks alongside masterpieces of the form like FC Double Dragon II - but since getting into the marginally superior FC version*, I suspect Top Secret: Hitler no Fukkatsu was meant as an original home sequel to the arcade Top Secret. I believe NES Bionic Commando might fit the bill, although I have little experience with it. Last edited by Herr Schatten on Tue 4:59 pm, edited 1 time in total. What are your favourites and why? And in which ways do they differ from the source material? So let's talk about those console (and maybe homecomputer) 'ports' that only bear a loose resemblance to their arcade counterparts, but aren't actually the worse for it. To this day, I have a soft spot for those. This reminded me of how in the 8-bit (and, to a lesser extend, early 16-bit) days it was actually rather common that developers didn't even try to replicate the arcade experience and went for a game that played to the target machine's strength instead, often with results that were good and interesting in their own rights. It is almost a different game, trading the open-level style of the original with flip-screen gameplay. Have only some mild experience with the Arcade version, but you should also try the SMS port.
