Arcade dork from Scotland. Playing, learning, scoring, investigating & generally messing about with arcade games of all genres since forever

Well I for one am looking forward to learning advanced scoring strats for the Curious George kiddie ride

tbh it'll probably be better than those other beat em up's n stuff they mentioned a few months ago
remember Sega's recent "Arcade Paradise" trademark? well, go ahead and forget about it xcancel.com/okunari/stat... 🇯🇵

5th place run with various original & unhinged scoring strats. Lots of info in the description

Not a masterpiece game by any stretch but a hugely overlooked part of fighting game history (1st chip damage, player projectiles, air guard, super armour) & a great Caravan

5th place this week in the day 1 Galactic Warriors Caravan. Loads to learn & test but it paid off

Best known as a shmup god,T3-TBC can also make robots fight & had the best score across all platforms. CLOBTA also played on Switch so was able to take the win there

Hacha Mecha Fighter T's now exist

Ever wonder why a Supergun has such a stupid (but cool) name?

It was just a name used by Taiwanese firm Gamesgroup Corp, similar to later products like Super Wildcard & SuperUFO game copiers

Raven Games (London) got their own version made to UK spec & called it Supergun Deluxe. It stuck

Galactic Warriors was already out before Gamest existed but they covered it in their early 'What is Konami?' feature

Like a futuristic take on Yie Ar Kung Fu but with 3 characters to choose from & features like chip damage, air guards & projectiles, that would go on to become the norm years later

This week's Arcade Archives release is Konami's 1985 robot fighting game Galactic Warriors🤖

The movie begins

As Bond dies we hear his final thoughts 'good thing MI5 has 60 gallons of my jizz stored in a top secret base & so long as M hasn't gotten into it again, they'll be able to clone me. Hopefully they give me a 2nd dick that shoots lasers or something this time'

The theme tune plays
This is such nonsense. Roger Moore or Lazenby would have just laughed this off.

“Wouldn’t have happened to the other guy” etc…
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

please do not sully the good name of The Outfoxies

Super Mario already gets Pac-Land's credit these days. Smash is merely an Outfoxies like lite.

Can Mario kill with a bowl of soup? Can Luigi explode a man in a wheelchair? No....but Dweeb can
The world isn’t ready for the original Smash Bros getting a console port for the first time.
If it does not happen at some time I will buy a hat & then eat it

Dweeb will appear on our screens in the future. I am sure of it🙏

How's twitter doing these days I hear you ask?

Well, in Cyber-Lip related news, a middle aged Scottish dork on bsky is out-performing SNK's own official, paid for account's Cyber-Lip anniversary tweet, despite them having a six-figure follower count

Saudi blood money can't buy CLOUT like this😉

If you like games & have reading comprehension then you too should be following this a/c, as they write about games & then you can read about them

There's lots of pictures too incase you can't read, not that this sentence will mean much to you then I guess
If you love the Games From The Black Hole blog, please can you share and let people know why.

It's time to get this account a following comparable to X so I can move on! When this account gets to 1000 followers I will not only stop posting on X, I will nuke it from orbit and delete it forever.

Cyber-Lip boss room patterns:

There's 4 random patterns where you fight previous bosses, get a weapon reload and fight Cyber-Lip, the last boss. You must know the patterns if playing for score or if you want an easier clear.

After his insain-ness was cured by several grenades to the mouth, Konami purchased Cyber-Lip's remains & put his pneumatic teeth to use in Surprise Attack's space fortress🤔
November 7, 2025 at 8:18 AM
Can everyone please wish a happy 35th birthday to our definitely not insain but slightly evilly reprogrammed toothy overlord Cyber-Lip, who 1st appeared on the Neo Geo MVS back on November 7th 1990🎂

Just to say, this game's as addictive as hell. Especially the Caravan

Hi-Score Mode is unusual as it implements a scoring system that's not in the arcade game, where it was just number of kills / win or lose. It's not explained but I assume it now factors in accuracy, destruction & deaths too?

I'll assume this trending ACA is either some US politics or baseball pish I have zero knowledge of or interest in but if it's about Arcade Archives Tokyo Wars, then that is a good thing

Play some Tokyo Wars. It has tanks in it
November 6, 2025 at 2:01 AM
It might be Tokyo Wars day but tomorrow's Famitsu reminds us of other recent ACA releases, Midnight Landing, Gee Bee, Battlantis, Joyful Road & Scion

An eclectic selection of games spanning genres & never before ported games from the 70s to the 90s. There's something for everyone
November 5, 2025 at 1:06 PM
The controls may be the same but the stats appear to be a little different

When Tokyo Wars was showcased at the AOU Show, Namco hadn't found a voice actor yet, so snuck an employee in behind the players to shout the game's lines

Unfortunately, with 4 screens to cover at once he soon lost his voice & suffered a mental breakdown🫡
November 5, 2025 at 11:17 AM
Mitsurugi would prefer if you don't explode him with a tank shell so he can put in his own appearance on ACA someday
November 5, 2025 at 8:54 AM
And here's the Japanese print advertisement for Tokyo Wars

Honestly, between the running tank battles in the streets & Godzilla & his chums stomping about, I'm surprised there's much of Tokyo left
November 5, 2025 at 8:40 AM
This weeks Arcade Archives release is 1995 Namco tank game 'Tokyo Wars'

War is hell but not when Namco's in charge. See you on the battlefield tonight
