Cover Art Theatre
permalinkReady for Week 2 of December 2014's Advertainment Month? (I hope so, cuz that's what you're getting)
Last week we looked at FCI porting some Super Exciting, Outerspace Video games from the arcade to your grocer's NES system, and now its time for Taito to flex its might.
Or should that be, its "DINO-might?"
It should probably not be "dino-might"...but it is! WHAM!
And well, aside from their odd choice of invoking J.J. Walker's catchphrase from the show Good Times, you've got to hand it to Taito:
Some of their games deliver the goods:
FACT: Bubble Bobble is friggin' amazing.
Q.E.D.
And I legitimately remember Operation Wolf as a famous and popular arcade game...
Though I'm not sure I'd qualify these as "Mind-blowing arcade quality graphics..."
But their ad copy may be a LITTLE optimistic for some of these games...
I'd never actually played this game before...
But consider me spellbound!
and I've always found Renegade is good for a laugh (even when you're NOT looking at its alternate cover art)
Honestly, what's not to like?
So I think I'll sign off this week by saying...
Good Taito, Good Times...Dyno-MITE! Tune in next week for more Advertainment!

I know 2am is not time to be alone in the subway...because... subway trains stop at 1 am. Which leads me to suspect our Mr K character is a homeless guy probably kicked out by a girlfriend who never tolerated his cross dressing habits. Jus my opinion
