In this thread we tell each other what our favorite hidden gem from our collection is and why other people should try it. Please follow the format below: Game Name/System:Omega Boost/PSX Why do you think not many people have played it: I don't remember a strong ad campaign for this game growing up. I read every tips and tricks and game magazine I could but I have never heard of until recently on an episode of Classic Game Room. Why People Should Play it: It is a fast paced 3d shoot similar to Panzer Dragoon but with a Macroos Plus kind of Mech shooter vibe. It plays smoothly, has simple controls, great 90s rock/dance soundtrack and has some high quality FMV cut scen…

Don't really know if this is the right thread to post this question but as it is not directly HyperSpin related, I thought it may work better here. I set up Zinc yesterday to work with HyperSpin (haven't done it yet with MAME) and after getting it to work, I started with the game Aquarush. While still playable, it has numerous graphical (color) glitches. I saw on some videos that MAME seems to reproduce this game much better, without those glitches. I was wondering if MAME can now reproduce all Zinc games better or if there are some that still work better with Zinc. I tried to look for a site with that information but couldn't find anything. As MAME is an ongoing WIP…

I've noticed through searching that different forks of MAME have enhanced compatibility. The biggest one is MAMEUIFX fixing the speed issues in Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting, which plays too quickly in MAME due to an unemulated interrupt sequence. Are there any other notable ones? I've been using the standard, command line version of MAME ever since I began using HyperSpin and want to know if it's worth the effort of switching.

in my search for fan games, remakes and demakes I came across card sagas wars and it looks very nice. it has a combo system for all the unique character.. you get to play all the heroes of present and passed video games. now I hear you thinking MUGEN!! yes but with some mugen the character draw style isnt always consistent, or the characters are just ripped from there games and animations reused.. These are all redrawn in the style. you can have Master Chief battle Chrono, or Simon Bellmont fight a bunch of lemmings(!!!(oh no!(boom))) I mean it looks great.. it's just not finished yet.. have a look http://cardgallery.tales-tra.com/main_csw.htm https://www.…
