What are some awful ports that we haven't covered yet that you'd like us to show?
Americans are lucky to not be familiar with Tiertex. In Europe they were infamous as the studio everyone went to to have a game made on the cheap, and on the shits, for computers such as the C64, Atari ST or Amiga.
I ditched school once to play Pit Fighter on the SNES. I regretted it.
Speaking of the Sega Saturn's region-lock mechanism, there is a special RAM cartridge for the Saturn called the Action Replay Plus and the Action Replay Plus is a 3-in-1 RAM cartridge for the Saturn and what it does is, it breaks the region encoding, helps you perform cheats in all of your games and it is also a memory card with TONS of free space for saving your game data without having to modify your Sega Saturn. The Action Replay Plus works on ALL Sega Saturn consoles in ALL countries. Look up the Action Replay Plus on Classic Game Room's KZread channel. CGR's Mark Bussler reviews the Action Replay Plus cartridge. Check it out.
8 MEGA POW-- memory
I love the irony that "8 MEGA POWER!" is still only 1 Megabyte, so only about two-thirds of an HD floppy disk. lol
You hate Tiertex as much as AVGN do with LJN.
I think I actually talked about this one on one of the other Piss Poor Ports episodes, but I have to go with the PSP port of the original Devil Summoner. They like...didn't port it. They basically just dumped the rom onto a UMD so it's not even properly formatted to the PSP screen. It's just incredibly ugly and kind of clunky and is not a good port at all.
I think Black Ops 3 on PS3 and the Xbox 360 would be worth taking a look at in the next episode. It looks like it was made in 3 months compared to the 3 years the actual game had
At the end when Dave talked about a what if scenario where what if somebody really liked a game and the only system they had was the one that had the terrible port...yeah, that hit close to home! As a kid I really loved Pit Fighter in the arcade (I was a dumb kid). I was so excited when I saw it was coming to the SNES and I saved up my allowance for a long time to buy it sometime around it's release. The day I bought that game was the day I first discovered what the words and phrases regret, buyer's remorse and EXTREME DEPRESSION actually meant and felt like.
The Mortal Kombat game on Gameboy, you did the moves by tapping each direction on the D-Pad at a time. For example, Sub-Zero’s ice beam, you had to tap down, wait a sec, tap forward, wait and then the punch button.
Tiertex sounds like a company that makes dollar store condoms
I'm pretty sure the Tiertex application form has a Yes or No question that simply states "Do you hate everyone?".
Here's an idea for a future episode for you guys "fun games with bad graphics (for their time)" or "bad graphics, good games
“Don’t worry...I’m still here” Died...☠️
I love that Dave always takes an opportunity to snatch Snatcher, but he should be grabbing Lunar Eternal Blue.
I have tears streaming down my face from the ending sketch. Joe’s death groans are oscar-worthy. And when Dave reached for the Snatcher I lost it. Bravo.
The ending skit got me laughing out loud. There is no channel on KZread like Game Sack.
Your reaction to the tumbleweeds on Turbo Outrun cracked me up "Oh man, tumbleweeds and traffic, better hit that turbo." Lol
Damn, that Turbo Outrun for the Genesis plays even worse than the regular Outrun...for Master System.
