I have affection for some Spectrum games like Jet Set Willy, Manic Miner and Monty etc. Rare Replay has a collction with some proper classic Speccy games like Atic Atac , Jetpac, Knight Lore, Sabre Wulf and Underwurld.
The Rare Reply is probably one of my fav collections.
Where's the Rare Replay available pls 🤔🤔
Would love Manic Miner and Arcadia along with Skool Daze and Back to Skool, would all play well on Evercade
You could do loads with the Spectrum! All-time greats like Manic Miner and Head Over Heels, an Ultimate Collection (take your pick), a Mastertronic collection with stuff like Feud and Zub, a modern homebrew collection or even one with all those modern classics from Zosya in your video! I think something like that on Home Computer Heroes is a likely first one though, although the recent Monty Mole Collection is ripe for Evercade too!
I have enjoyed the C64 collections, but the good old Speccy was my preferred platofrm so I would be excited to see some love for the Spectrum.
Manic Miner, Jet Set Willy & Skool Daze are a must John. I did approach Alternative Software who made an upgraded version of Skool Daze called Skool Daze ReSkooled and asked them to approach Blaze which they thought was a pretty good idea but not sure what happened to that. That game was released on Steam and PC 😊😊
Well it has to be all the ultimate and ocean titles, plus stuff like jack the nipper, school daze
I was starting to think Sean had a point watching the first few games, but then we got to Head Over Heels, an all time classic (even if the Amstrad version is prettier 😉). Anyway, I still think a Spectrum cart is worthy, just to preserve the memory and affection for the 8-bit era. Maybe we should get a petition going?
(Cheers for mentioning and showing the Retro Titans clip btw).
Totally need a Spectrum cart to preserve the memory.. but yeah there's a lot of games there that probably will only be appreciated by the diehards. A bit like the c64 carts but maybe more so.
I baffled why spectrum cartridge isn't on list. Amiga c64 here, no spectrum isn't. One of my favourite games on spectrum, bubblesoft pukman also jetpack. Great video
Very good question..🤔
Pretty sure we’d have seen some by now 🤷♂️
There's so many great Speccy games but if we rule out any licensed games and Ultimate Play the Game are a no go as well, there's still plenty classics. I'd love to see Wizards Lair (Atic Atac clone), 3D Starstrike (Star Wars clone), Wheelie, Scuba Dive, Ant Attack, 3D Deathchase, Buggy Blast and of course, Chuckie Egg :-) Keep up the awesome work!
I think if we get a Spectrum game it's most likely be a more recent indie title much like the MSX title we got. Sword of Ianna.
Ultimate cart is the obvious one due to the quality of games. Saboteur is, I think, owned by the author and he is still writing games for Spectrum so I’d have thought that might work for an HCH cart. Skool Daze and sequel are kicking about on other platforms so must be license-able. MM/JSW similar. Some of the big companies catalogue - Ocean/imagine, Gremlin, Mastertronic, Codemasters must be an option.
I had a spectrum 48k back in the 80's...I remember playing Way of the Exploding fist before school with a Kempston joystick stuck down on a hardback book,great days..but I don't think I'd want to go back to em now 😂
My question is where is Turtles collection games? Dead Cells collection? And Shovel Knight
On Nintendo Switch??? 😅
@@hablamosdeevercadelol
I only need one Speccy game for the Evercade. Chaos: The Battle of Wizards by Julian Gallop. Best game ever!
There are so many great spectrum games they could release like Exolon, cybernoid, chaos, lords of midnight or any of the homebrew games being worked on today.
Thanks for picking this up! I wonder why the Speccy is harder to arrange licensing for than the C64 would have been?
It's messy. Think C64 and Amiga was easier as Retro Games (makers of the minis) had license rights so Blaze made a deal with them. The whole license thing is a confusing mess.
Spectrum games, here’s hoping🙏games like Atic Atac, Manic miner, Jet set Willy, Knight lore, Sabre Wulf, Skool Daze, Chuckie Egg, Black Widow and don’t forget The Great Escape, etc etc etc all awesome games👌
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍
I seriously doubt you’ll see any of the Ultimate games as Microsoft now own them.
@@martynlewis9020Never give up🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Now 351 Spectrum games on Antstream 😀😀
Nomad and transformers I'd like to see the zx versions on evercade two games with childhood nostalgia for me
I live in the US and I honestly never even heard of the Spectrum.
It was called the Timex in the US at the time 😊
i would love to see all the rare games come to evercade, but that would be a hard one to get
Probably unlikely sadly.
@@CrazyBurger yeah rare has changed too many hands since their spectrum days and i believe their ultimate play the games titles go for alot of money
It would have to have a lot if games 🎮 on it because they are basic... there's so many great 64 games we'll never get... monty on the run for a start ❤
Well Sean makes a good point on the RT podcast. We don't need Spectrum Arcade conversions but that was only a couple of companies that did the coin op conversions.
We don't need these.
But the Spectrum had LOADS of original games that could be put onto a home computer cart, or even a standalone one:
Skooldaze & Bak 2 Skool
Bobby Bearing
The Wally Week series of games
A Firebird cart with 7-8 of those budget titles like Booty, The Wild Bunch etc
A Mastertronic cart with a similar amount of games - getting the Magic Knight series would be excellent.
We have had a Gremlin Graphics cart already but what about Monty Mole, Jack The Nipper games? Gremlin put out loads of great titles.
Ocean had a lot of games that weren't coin op conversions or movie licence based...
Sadly with HoH getting a Remake for the Next...that won't happen.
An isometric games cart however would be great too....however a lot of those are now tied to Microsoft so, little chance of that.
But with thousands of Spectrum games out there...surely some licences could be obtained.
You would think it would be easy but there's probably more to the licence details than we know. I dont understand it personally.
Sadly, we won't be seeing the peak of the spectrum, i.e., Ultimate, as Microsoft owns them.
I don't think stand alone Spectrum cart would sell very well.
I think some Spectrum sprinkled in a Home Computer cart would be a better decision interest-wise.
From his talk. I guess it is STILL very tricky for them to achieve an actual collection?! At least one that can make the ZX proud! There are way TOO MANY to mention. In regards to a choosing the BEST?! What you have highlighted here Crazy Burger are really good! Again from his talk. I am optimistic that Blaze WILL deliver though on a collection. I give it TWO years. After all the interest in there! I am hoping it has 20 games on it! If not, then maybe about SIX of ZX Spectrum very best?! 🤔😊👍
most of the best spectrum games were released on the C64, which would be a much better version, but if there were spectrum exclusive games that could be good?
I was never really a ZX Spectrum person. I found the bleeding colour palette to be weird, the audio to be rather poor for the most part, and I haven't really seen any game on there that really intrigued me. And keep in mind that I grew up with MS-DOS back in the 90s, so I've had my share of primitive looking and sounding games. And while I have been exposed to the C64 back in the day, the ZX Spectrum just feels like something beyond my time to truly appreciate. But that's just my take, and I can't speak for anyone else.
Great video yet again, and well deserved 30k subscribers, well done. What was the name of the game streaming service you showed for the old retro games?. Keep up the great content. Del👍😁
It's Antstream. Web version. Also on modern platforms though think you need to subscribe. I joined a few years ago when it was free!
@@CrazyBurger That's great, thank you. 👍
most speccy games have c64 ports, lords of midnight, doomdark revenge, jet set willy, jetpac, manic miner. I suspect it comes down to the z80 emulator not embedded in the evercade firmware.
An update can fix that. Thought all the emulators were on the cartridges?
Argh my eyes! 😂😂
I was never a Spectrum fan myself and so i have no nostalgia but I recognise how popular it was in the UK and in parts of Europe. However, it doesn't look like the games have aged well. I wouldn't say no to a Speccy cart though, but as with the C64 collections it'll just sit gathering dust on my shelf.
The sound though. Pretty nasty in most games 😂
Yeah those sounds are painful yet nostalgic to those that had a speccy.
For a brief moment, upon seeing a black handheld with Spectum on it -- "Vega Plus?!" Thankfully no.
My first introduction to Speccy was the Vega, and while I am glad I got to play the games there, I'm not too interested in Spectrum collection, but the modern Speccy games, though, I'd be interested in. As long as their audio is 128K. Text adventures? Need the support for a proper keyboard, thankyouverymuch (that Vega lacked).
Cool. C64 or ZX Spectrum Gremlin Graphics cart would be perfect as there is a lot of great games, we said this 4 years ago tho lol. More focus on say ZX Spectrum indie games would be a win as many of them are superb. The hard sell are the Americans, they are mostly NES when it comes to 8bit.
Cheers Crazy!
Yeah, i don't see a Spectrum cart selling well in the US
Sean’s not wrong tho….it was of its time and what we had….we all moved on without much thought back in the day….
Perhaps hard to love if you haven’t got that nostalgia?
Oh definitely.. I think someone with no nostalgia for it, will not be interested. Especially if they didn't enjoy C64.
100 Lines Crazy Burger for missing out Skool Daze and Bak 2 Skool.
200 lines for spelling "bak" incorrectly! Amazingly I never played it..
People who moan about long loading times today never experienced a spectrum in the 80s.
Lol the pain.. worse when they crash after loading..
FFS not another C64 cartridge inbound 😂
There's that possibility.. could well see Protovision cart.
Maybe not global enough?
This is a nonsense argument from Sean. You aren't licensing any versions of Outrun full stop and that isn't what people would be asking for when they talk about Speccy games.
Once again we are hearing that because a particular Blaze guy doesn't care to play it that means the rest of the userbase doesn't want it either. It doesn't work that way.
What was nonsense was the Orange, it was Green. 😜
Honestly, most of these games have not aged well. Most of them are incredibly janky with cryptic controls and unforgiving difficulty.
Yeah sadly this is true. Some of those sounds and music are hard on the ears.
Sometimes I just don’t get you and a part of the community either.
At this point, and especially you having a channel that shifted its attention almost completely to cover the system, we all should know how this works.
The Evercade is not the GameBoy or the Game Gear. Blaze is not providing the console and selling the licensing for companies like Konami or Sega to release cartridges and take all the fall of development, manufacturing and marketing, while all Blaze does is receive the licensing money. Blaze is taking all the fall and then some. They are the ones who need to pay for the licensing, they are the ones who pay for the development of software, manufacturing and distribution. There are reasons why we get what we get, there are reasons why there are legacy carts and more will be appearing, there are reasons why we’ve been getting all these impulse buy tat and there are reasons why we’ll never get certain things and others won’t comeback.
The brand, BIOS and most of the games are owned by Subvert, known to be scummy and overprotective of his stuff, he almost ruined the life of a youtuber for some videos on Horace. Horace! I wouldn’t be surprised Subvert already has something against Blaze or Funstock.
The guy knows he’s sitting in gold and he won’t take silver for just a peek. You need to take into account that Blaze needs to keep the carts within a certain price range and still have a profit after all the expenses; that’s why we sometimes might get a cart with 30 games and others just 3 or 2. They know their audience, or at least the ones with common sense, will absolutely understand that a newer game like Full Void would get a single game cart release, but would completely be annoyed to pay the same for a 40+ year old release like Horace Goes Skiing.
Of course, we got an MSX game, but that doesn’t mean can get Spectrum games or an MSX Collection, what it actually means is that it all comes down to licensing; we had it because the licensing fee still allowed Blaze to profit. We have had NES emulation from day one, but we won’t ever get a Nintendo Collection.
