- Episode 394 - Many games get released to the arcades and then practically forgotten after that, as they never got ported to a home console in their day. So let's look at some of those games!

What are some more interesting games that absolutely never came home?
Prop Cycle. There used to be a cabinet of this crazy game at a bowling alley I frequented. I always thought that I would buy one when I got older so I could use it to stay in shape.
It didn't happen, but I'd love to try it again some day.
They could have made it work on the Dreamcast fishing controller...
Big Fight: Trouble in the Atlantic Ocean
It's a really fun beat'em up game (also has versus mode), where bosses become playable after beating them. The game has quite a few branch paths, which really ups the replay value.
Techno Drive by Namco
The outfoxies
Surprise Attack (Konami, 1990), Magical Truck Adventure (Sega), Tokyo Wars (Namco, 1996), Vandyke (UPL, 1990) and Valtric (NMK/Jaleco, 1986).
The A-ha "Take on Me" Game Sack intro
2023 mario movie made me smile like an idiot because animation is cinema
4:15 - I think this revelation needs to be more widespread. It definitively proves that Billy Mitchell couldn't have performed his world record runs on an unmodified Donkey Kong arcade cabinet, as if it were unmodified, he would be playing Radar Scope.
Tagging @Karl Jobst!
The name we use is Silly Bitchell. Don't want to get sued for "slander" 😅.
He disappointed his dad. This revelation was on the Regular Show final battle.
The original 2,000 donkey Kong cabinets were converted from radar scope but there were upwards of 80,000 units sold in America alone so it's not like every donkey Kong game was a conversion. This isn't exactly a smoking gun that proves Billy Mitchell is a liar and a cheater. But there's enough evidence of that already anyways lol
@@JaredConnellCalm down, dude. It's just a joke.
The first fresh Sack of 2024!
Nothing like s fresh sack!!
Smells fresh, too! 👃
Long live the show, long life for Joe!
Hopefully thd the first of many😊
That's what she said.
8:52 1988? The Sega Model 3 hardware was so powerful, it could go back in time!
They were so ahead of their time😂
Damn! You truly cannot be satisfied without Model 3!
Arcades? Where they're going, you don't need arcades.
Sega Model 3 is an evolutionn
“I'm from the future. I came here in a Sega Model 3 arcade cabinet that you invented. Now I need your help to get back to the year 1988.”
We've entered the Rotoscoped Joe era of Game Sack.
RotoJoed
Looks Sketchy 😁
this man has listening to take on me on repeat because of the mario movie just saw last year in cinema
Ah yes, the "Take on Me" era. I'm also waiting for the "Money for Nothing" era, and eventually the cursed claymation "Tool" era, lol.
Absolutely loved the intro Joe!
What do you think of take on me?
But the outro tho 😂
I’ll just add the intro was amazing!! Great start to a new year. Take care and thanks Joe
The old one is better
I love the previous intro too but this new one is next level.
Kudos to the person who made that Hotel Dusk: Room 215 esc intro :D
The Hotel Dusk duology is something long overdue for a rerelease; given that the Trace Memory duology is coming out on Switch worldwide in the near future, who knows?
All the video thumbnails should be redesigned on that style.
If Another Code Recollection sells well the creator of Hotel Dusk (which is the same) will consider making a remake/remaster of Hotel Dusk.
I was thinking A-ha but I'm old.
I'm thinking the intro was done with ebsynth but I could be wrong
I binged-re-watched the previous 'Left in the Arcade' videos yesterday so this was a treat to sit down to after a *checks watch* 16 hour shift at work.
Love the new intro.
Ton of unauthorized Art of Noise samples in Silent Dragon! Would never have known that without this episode -- thanks Joe!
Yep, I was amazed and instantly recognized this woman's yell from its title screen, right from "Close (to the Edit)". Glad to see some people here knows good old English electronic music as well!
Slick new intro to ring in the New Year. Lookin good Mr. Joe Sack.
i've kinda sick of watching the same 2018 game sack intro that hasn't been changed until 2024 because this channel never dies and never gets retired along with AVGN scott the woz nor happyconsolegamer because retro gaming channels on youtube still living place in my heart for entertaiment
*Super Monkey Ball / Slashout facts:*
• Some of the enemies make cameoes as stone statues in Super Monkey Ball's storm stage (Expert 41-50)
• One of the stages is used as Dr Bad Boon's secret base in Super Monkey Ball 2 (Story Mode cutscene)
• The gear models from the Slashout clock tower stage are used in the Monkey Ball 2 clock tower stage
Being a huge Monkey Ball fan, that is basically the only reason I've played Slashout
Sega GT's graphics were incredible for 96 even for Arcade.
Agreed!
I thought i was looking at something from the early 2000s. Pretty incredible
Loving the sack on me intro
"Sack on me
Sack me on"
That should be on a t-shirt 👕
I'll be gone
In a sack or twoooo
The end skit is as funny as ever.Happy New Year, Joe and long live Game Sack.
Also, it's hard to think of a look more iconic than the Dreamcast style of super high resolution polygons, with ALMOST enough detail and animation to render convincingly realistic humans.
4:09 love this 100% genuine photo of Shiggy
What a great opening intro!
That cat gallop is insane.
i remember when i got left at the arcade. it was fun until i ran out of money
This is why I bought a 48tb hyperspin setup. I don't want to be connected to the internet all the time just to play games going forward as emulators can use FSR as I wont need that stupid overpriced 4090 anymore.
@@John-PaulHunt-wy7lfwut
New year, new Game Sack! Bring it on!! Great job as usual.
Really pleased to see that gems like Spikeout are finally being mentioned more. It's fighting system is near to flawless.
64th Street was a precursor for Jaleco's Super Famicom "Rushing Beat" series; early ad screenshots of the original game (released as "Rival Turf" overseas) had the protagonist (also named Rick) dressed in the same pants and overalls combo as 64th St's Rick. He was modified into a Cody clone by the time the game hit the shelves.
The graphics for Spikeout screams Dreamcast and definitely would sit right at home for the console. I love these bright colours that lots of Dreamcast arcade-style action games had.
The new intro is SICK! Well done Joe
That intro was cool as hell. Happy to see you holding it down 10 years since I've first watched your channel. Say hi to Dave for all of us
It is unbelivable that Toshihiro Nagoshi has left Sega after so many decades. He's probably gone to live in a stranded paradisiacal island along with Yu Suzuki and Yuji Naka 😬
Hopefully it isn’t linked to the last paradisical resort island popular among rich successful men :P
Now I have to wonder if going to live in a paradisiacal island would violate Yuji Naka's probation and which would land him in jail
@@Jofe000 Haha, Yuji Naka is a lucky b@stard, he escaped from jail by a hair!
This is why FPGA hardware will always be the future of retro gaming. There's really no other way to play these games the way they originally functioned, outside of on the original arcade boards.
Love the intro! Gives me Hotel Dusk vibes.
Or 1980 music video vibes because that’s exactly what it’s from.
Indeed. :)
@@whatjake7898I’m familiar with Take On Me, I was just linking it to games.
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is not a spinoff. It's the main series. They have changed the name from Yakuza to Like a Dragon to match the Japanese name for the series, and they turned it into a turn-based game. You get the old style in actual spinoffs like Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name and the Judgement games.
Yeah, Infinite Wealth is basically Yakuza 8.
Ooooh yeah, new Game Sack video… it’s cozy time 😁
thanks for all the years of sacks! i appreciate everything that goes into them
When I first moved to Seattle around 1999 I took temp jobs for a while and one of them was at the Nintendo Warehouse over in Redmond. They had a (unmodified) Radar Scope arcade game in the lunch break area.
Yet again, Joe knocks it out of the park. Thanks for all your efforts, Joe, and a belated Happy New Year to you and yours.
A-ha, a new intro. Nice one.
I can picture some Sega Engineer, drunk and watching Radar Scope, and thinking "Hey, we can make something really cool with sprite scaling!"
Oooh, stylish new intro! Who drew that? Was it you or some other guy? I recall that you were a good artist.
I did!
You rotoscoped it huh? Looks good!
Very cool intro!
These videos always drop when I'm debating jumping out my window. So I appreciate the life sucks distraction lol
ooh yeah! Funky JET was my favorite game for a long time back in the arcade! ❤
Fun fact:
Yakuza actually also reuses animation from Spikeout like for example, Mine who is the final boss of Yakuza 3 reuses animations from White
I have been watching your videos for years now and I just have to say that every time you post one I sit through and watch the whole thing. It's rare that a CZcams video keeps me paying attention at the length your videos are. You're awesome! Thank you for everything and it's super entertaining and interesting to watch your stuff.
Good video. One of very few channels that have managed to stay entertaining. And that was good comedic ending. Several of them are gems. Thanks.
New year, new intro. Love the animation, flow of movement. It looks amazing.
Subject of the video: so many games never received home ports. Most I have never heard of, that you covered in this episode. Fun to learn about these lost treasures
love the new intro and the remastered theme!
Another left in the arcade? Again?
THANK YOU, Joe! It feels like that cozy show you watch at Sundays that we have no more. ❤
(loved that intro)
16:02, 64th Street A Detective Story is also available via Arcade Archives on Switch/PlayStation 4 & 5.
Yup, was gonna sayvthat
DERP! (window crashes)
Thanks for always making awesome videos! Hope 2024 is a great year full of even more Game Sack!
Thanks a ton! :)
Looks like someone really likes holding the sack😮
I've always wanted to play Scud Race. Hoping to see it show up on PSN or in a Yakuza game one day. Loved the intro!
I loved the yakuza games. Been doing a marathon of finally beating the games. Couple of months ago I went from 0 to 6 games I beat.
I believe most of them are on gamepass
Thanks. I really like these as it makes me aware of obscure arcade games and i can just rry them on mame
Somebody should make a montage of Joe saying things like:
"..but Sega decided to cancel it, because they hate all of us"
and
"if you like to be able to (blank), then you can go straight to hell, because there's none of that here"
(I've heard many variations of that over the years, and makes me laugh every time)
Thank you for Dedication and hard work on making these videos.I have been watching for the last 5 years. Love your Cheesy Skits 🤣👍👍
A-HA! I love the new intro!
That intro gave me "Aha - Take on me" vibes! Kudos Joe!
Me: "I'll go to bed early tonight."
Maury: "The new Game Sack video determined that was a lie."
damn, that sword floating out of his hand, tho...
New year, new Sack, even new intro! I'm pretty partial to Radar Scope to several other "Space Invaders clones," barring the Namco games.
Great video as always. Love that intro too.
God I missed this channel. Only took me three lunch breaks to finish, too. Thanks Joe.
Love the ode to Aha’s video “Take on me” in the intro
I hear that "hey" sound effect from silent dragon and i instantly think of the song "fire starter" by the prodigy.
I'm the trouble starter, punkin' instigator!
that first games soundtrack sounded AMAZING
Sometimes I wish Joe was left in the arcade, but not today.
This video was good. And that intro looks so good, great job!
I usually don’t like change, but that intro was fire
The 1st Game Sack video of 2024. Gonna be an interesting one topic wise.
Awesome intro for the 2024 sack season 😮
I worked in the same building as Sega in the early '00s, and they let us go up and play the Planet Harriers they had in the lobby whenever we wanted.
New year, new fancy intro. Thx for everything, Joe.
Wooo first Gamesack video of 2024 and with a cool new intro!
29:31 THE best part of the video and one of the funniest things ever done on the series 😂
Love the rodoscoped intro! Reminds me of Hotel Dusk and Last Window!
These are my favorite episodes I think.
a hidden gem i recently found only on arcades is zero team 2000. what a classic fighting game!
I love the new intro. Kudos to the artist!
Spikeout is basically Streets of Rage 3D. And it has surprising amount of depth to its combat! A seriously underrated series. I've never seen it in real life and have only played it through Supermodel.
Great video! As per usual, in addition to the excellent research into the main topic, the ending skit is pure gold.
Great eh ❤
Love the cereal "paid" advertisement at the end!
The worst part about Planet Harriers is that Hikaru boards are notoriously fragile due to defective soldering on the BGAs which will pop off the board if they are handled roughly or sometimes just due to heat cycling putting stress on the solder joints. Every Hikaru board is on borrowed time and will eventually unalive itself at some point by means of one of the BGAs falling off the PCB just from being used.
Couldn't they just be resoldered? Doesn't sound like an unrepairable problem.
kinda reminds me of Konami specific board where it contains a "suicide battery" where the component will stop working at the designated date.
My cat kept looking at my laptop when that cat racer was meowing. Must be a pretty authentic sound effect!
The end skits are gold
It's a real shame Sega lost Nagoshi. Dude is a legend.
Love the consistency of this channel. Can always come back and find new content to go through. Thanks!
What an awesome intro! Now, you just need that "take on me" song in the background and your set Bro! Salud from Chicago! 🍻💥🍻👍
I like Silent Dragon's music actually. Suprised they had the balls to blatantly sample Prince's 'Get Off' for the 3rd stage. The first two stage BGM tracks use a lot of Art of Noise stuff. Would love to know the origin of the main repeating/looping sample from the 1st stage!
I wasn't aware of the samples on Silent Dragon before this (and I like the music too)... blatant samples, but that was how it was in the 90s. "Hey!"
I love the new intro Joe!
Silent Dragon - Wow, someone was listening to a lot of Art of Noise when they did that music.
I love the new “Take On Me” inspired intro, Joe!
Whyyyy??? The intro. 😢 I loved the old intro. I get it. It's a new year so you want it to look different but i am going to miss it. Besides that, great episode. Game Sack is one of my favorite channels on this platform. I eat my breakfast to it every Sunday morning as i am about to do now
The new intro could belong in an a-ha music video. Love it!
Cereal In - Cereal Out; I like how you described the whole lifecycle !
Oh ... and the rest of the video was pretty cool too 😇
Game Sack Cereal!! Now with free roll of 1 Ply Toilet Paper in every box!
🔥 intro
18:09 Won't you take me to Funky Town? 😂
Spikeout from Sega is the most groundbreaking game ever made. Coming out in the Arcade on the Model 3 in the future year of 1988! Mind blowing 3D graphics that bend reality. Sort like things you would see in 1998 but 10 years earlier! Also Sega Super GT/ SCUD Race is based off the short lived BPR racing series. Features licensed cars that raced in the series including the McLaren F1 GTR and Dodge Viper GTS.
Spike out looks amazing! Can’t believe model 3 was around in 1988
Game sack 2024 already poppin off
Planet Harriers was big time favorite of mine. I used to play it in Vegas at Fao Shwarts toy store on the third floor.
Stylish new intro was great, ending skit was great, and the stuff in the middle was ok too! 😉
Desert Breaker did get included in the "Astro City Mini V "-miniconsole, so it's not entirely left in the arcade.
Love me some sack. A sack full of games ready to explode all over me
Intro was FIREEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
