That wasn’t originally a Ghostbuster game in Japan I believe so they were shoehorning the license in. It did get Euro computer ports, wonder why it never came to the US. Also I wonder if Slimers name in Japan translates to green ghost maybe?

I grew up playing the Activision Commodore 64 version at friend’s houses. I was so excited when they announced the NES version and I asked for it for Christmas as I didn’t have a C64 and was so disappointed. I was never a fan of the platform and gun Genesis version either. later I got the Master System version and that will always be my favorite version of the Activision or any Ghostbusters game.

haha yeah I knew it was ported to some euro PC's. Some people get so mad in the comments when I show a game that technically does have a port even if I consider it "inferior". Like I am breaking someome's rules other than my own lol

Love Power Instinct. Got the chance to play 5 at a localish Round 1 this yearthat also had Salamander 2 no less. I still play 1 on the SNES, 2 on the PS1 and Matrimelee once in a while, I just played 2 last week. White Buffalo always gives me a hard time.

That monkey shooter definitely looks like fun, shame that didn’t get ported by I guess it’s too quirky.

I just got Power Instinct V on an OG Type X2 board. Had to have it on "real hardware" even if its just a PC in a box. Well that and I mean if I have Type X2 hardware I can probably do a video series on it lol

I do love the Type X as it's both fun hardware to collect for AND easy to run on Windows lol
