www.retrogamingcollector.com —————- Gameplay from Star Wars Arcade playing on Sega’s 32X retro games console add-on.Retro gaming. This is not a review, walkthrough, playthrough, or demonstration of my playing ability. It’s simply a quick demonstration of the game so that anyone not familiar with these old games can see what it looks like. Any opinions or comments I make regarding these games should largely be taken with a pinch of salt. They are usually based on my first impressions after a very brief play.
I’d love to get a 32X system, the only problem is that the last 3 didn’t work.
1 didn’t work at all and the other 2 would work for a while and when it warmed up would start to flicker and the flicker rate would increase to an unplayable level!
Oh well, at least I have my Mega-CD1 and MD1. I love my Dreamcast too! – lovely system, shame that sega just gave it loads of arcade ports and not much original games.
Well of course it is. 32X uses a single Hitachi 32 bit RISC chip and cost £150. The Sega System 1 board in the arcade game uses umpteen dsp chips and cost multiple thousand pounds… so expensive in fact that most normal sized arcades couldn’t afford them.
It’s like saying that a Ford Fiesta has less power than a Boeing 747.
DO A BARREL ROLL
There were definitely some issues with reliability. I’m not having any problems with this particular 32X, but on the one I had back in ’94, Virtua Racing wouldn’t play for more than 20 minutes or so without the game crashing.
I had this game, it rocked!
I had that game once. Nice enough game, but there was some nasty slowdown at times, plus all the darn button combos you had to press for various communications if you only had a 3 button controller
some very good graphics for a 32x game
*Wipe out enemy fightas*
N.Y. cab drivers at their finest.
32x had the power to do a really good star wars, this graphics engine was good enough for me, pitty it was such a stiff game. But I still really liked the whole 32bit star wars addon thingy overall. It was cool to show people the graphics of the superstar destroyer and death star….which were pretty trippy and way beyond a snes power at least.
