Blaze Entertainment finishes off 2024 with a great collection of arcade-themed carts.
We’ll be looking at
Data East Arcade 2
and
Toaplan Arcade 3
here, but
Toaplan Arcade 4
and
Metal Dragon/Life On Mars
are also available to buy now. Twelve games feature on
Data East Arcade 2
and it’s a robust selection. The highlights are easily
Edward Randy,
a brash, over-the-top action game,
Burgertime
sequel
Super Burgertime
and
Joe & Mac Returns,
a single-screen action game that’s similar to Toaplan’s
Snow Bros. Express Raider
is a decent action game,
Crude Buster
is an enjoyable scrolling fighter, while
Shoot Out
is a challenging single-screen shooter.
Last Mission, B-Wings
and
SRD: Super Real Darwin
are OK shmups, while
Trio The Punch: Never Forget Me
is a forgettable average action
game. That leaves
Peter Pepper’s Ice Cream Factory
and the run-and-gun
Midnight Resistance.
