FEATURING: DAIMAKAIMURA A.K.A. GHOULS'N GHOSTS, FANTASY ZONE II: THE TEARS OF OPA-OPA, AND PLANET HARRIERS
Somewhere near the woods lies a gas station, neatly placed seemingly in the middle of nowhere; however, it is far from desolate. For there anons from all around gather inside a room. A room filled to the top with arcade machines. There, anons enjoy the evening drinking, calling each other faggot and just having a good old time.
>What is this?
Anons vote for some games (or someone just posts some) and play them until they beat them or lose. Arcade games that don't take long to complete and reward skill. Once finished they post their score and see who did the best. They give others advice, share what they think of the game, call each other casuals, say which character they would fuck and more.
>How much time do I have to play?
One month or until winners are announced. New threads are posted at around 00:00 UTC-8 on the first Saturday of the month whenever the fuck I feel like it.
>Where do I get them?
All ROMs here: https://files.catbox.moe/vlot7r.zip

DAIMAKAIMURA A.K.A. GHOULS'N GHOSTS
>scrotum-smashingly difficult platforming action game, and second in the classic Ghosts'n Goblins series
>later games give you a double jump but this one doesn't; at least you can fire upward
>have fun beating the game a second time with the worst weapon to get the true ending

FANTASY ZONE II: THE TEARS OF OPA-OPA
>the ongoing tragedy of Opa-Opa and his estranged father originally came out on the SMS and the SMS-based System E hardware
>M2 remade it for the semifictional System 16C board, and MAME supports the remake because the 16C just had a memory increase over the 16B
>has the classic Defender-style shooting, but you can now go between dimensions to fight harder patterns and bosses, which affects the ending

PLANET HARRIERS
>the Outrun 2006 to Space Harrier II's Outrun 2019
>a really great and very difficult blend of classic Space Harrier with Panzer Dragoon's lock-on and Fantasy Zone's shops on Y2K arcade hardware
>it's a Hikaru game, so you need the newest build of Demul to play it properly (included along with the BIOS in the ROM package); make sure to reverse up/down in your control config
I've tried earnestly to get into Ghouls 'n' Ghosts before but it just isn't as fun to me as Super Ghosts 'n' Goblins.  The extra jump really makes SGG a joy to play.  Figuring out how to perfectly time your double jump to avoid peril while launching simultaneous projectiles is incredibly satisfying.  This is in spite of that incredibly tedious raft level early in the game.  It was a deceptively simple addition, but SGG added the one thing the series really needed from the beginning.
