Donkey Kong franchise
image
Sometimes a villain and sometimes just another stupid monkey, Donkey Kong began as a means of recycling failed arcade cabinets and ended up launching Shigeru Miyamoto's career as a superlative game designer and laying the foundation for Nintendo's video gaming empire. Even before Mario became a household name, Donkey Kong starred in numerous arcade and handheld names, sharing the pantheon with other mascots of the arcade like Pac-Man, Q-Bert, and Frogger. Since those humble single-screen arcade beginnings, DK - and the entire Kong family - have reappeared in platformers, rhythm games, racing games, and even a... math quiz?

2024 Annual Franchise Publisher Challenge
Psygnosis
Psygnosis is a British developer and publisher founded nearly 40 years ago. While they made a name for themselves developing distinct titles for computer platforms like the Amiga and Atari ST, they achieved worldwide fame in 1991 with the release of Lemmings, which they ported to nearly every platform imaginable. Over time, they developed a reputation for original titles with advanced graphics, which caught the attention of Sony as they prepared for the launch of the PlayStation. Many of the PlayStation's early standout titles were developed by Psygnosis, and they continued to develop original titles and flesh out franchises on the platform - and others - for nearly two decades afterwards. The Psygnosis portfolio is massive and diverse, even excluding the games they developed after rebranding as Studio Liverpool. Wikipedia has a comprehensive list that can be sorted and filtered to your tastes, but I've done my best to highlight some standout franchises below. Suggested Games Shadow of the Beast Lemmings Ecstatica Defcon 5 Discworld Toy Story Destruction Derby WipEout Assault Rigs Formula 1 Colony Wars Rollcage Alundra Beat any game developed and/or published by Psygnosis in 2024 to earn the image Owl icon which will appear next to your username everywhere in the Retro Talkshop Thread. |

February 2024 Edition - Shaq Fu & Quake
At the peak of his presence in the zeitgeist, Shaquille O'Neal could do no wrong. Except free throws. And acting. It was only a matter of time before he would appear in a video game. Shaq Fu is the result of that odyssey, a 2D fighting game released for the Genesis, Super Nintendo, and Amiga - as well as some portables - that pits Shaq Daddy against a bunch of interdimensional weirdos to save a young boy. The game received a middling reception at launch, a sentiment that comically seems to have deteriorated over time. Today, the game is - some would argue, unfairly - remembered as one of the worst games of all time, not because of its objective gameplay quality but because of its blatant absurdity as a cash-in. Play Shaq Fu on Sega Genesis Super Nintendo Game Boy Game Gear Amiga Complete Story Mode in any version of Shaq Fu (or Duel Mode in the Genesis, SNES, or Game Gear releases) to earn the a badge for the character you used: image image image image image image image image image image image image |
Quake's impact on its genre is arguably matched only by its older cousin Doom. While not the first fully-3D first-person shooter, its revolutionary engine set the new standard for competing games moving forward. Quake was one of the first killer apps for the PC's nascent 3D accelerator market, came with its own robust scripting language, and launched a multiplayer community and culture that still exists today. While not as omni-ported as Doom, it was later officially ported to the Saturn and Nintendo 64, unofficially ported to numerous other platforms by the homebrew community, and recently remastered by Bethesda for modern platforms. Play Quake on DOS & Windows MacOS Amiga Saturn Nintendo 64 Xbox One PlayStation 4 Switch Buy it on Steam Buy it on GOG Buy it on Humble Buy it on the Xbox Marketplace Buy it on the PlayStation Store Buy it on the Nintendo eShop Complete any port or version of Quake to earn the Quad Damage badge: image Complete any port or version of Quake II to earn the Quake II badge: image |
January 2024 Edition - Sonic Adventure
After a whole console generation without a mainline Sonic game, Sonic Adventure arrived on the Dreamcast, ready to satiate a ravenous fanbase. The game, which launched in North America on 9/9/99 alongside the Dreamcast, catapulted the Blue Blur into the third dimension with a large, story-driven narrative that spanned many locales, challenges, and playable characters. After the release of a sequel and the failure of Sega's final console, the game was ported to Windows and GameCube as Sonic Adventure DX with adjustments to suit the new platforms, and to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 as a rushed HD remaster. While Sonic Adventure's legacy is somewhat mixed, it is fondly remembered among Sonic superfans as the first time Sonic dropped on hardware that could match his attitude.

It wasn't meant to be an exhaustive list; I cut things off at the Wii which is when things stopped feeling retro. You can still play the later games and still get badges, but I defer to Wikipedia for that list.
I don't have the energy for a "Is retro a genre, an absolute time period, or a relative time period?" debate, but feel free to discuss amongst yourselves.
Game & Watch qualifies, but are they actually completeable, or do you just play the same screen forever?

The Game & Watch Collection games give you a 5 star rating when you hit 1000 points. So that's what I would consider beating it. I think on most G&W titles 999 is the max score it can display before it flips back around to zero.

Don't forget "an aesthetic" as well.
But this is your thread, you get to make the final call, and no one can dispute it.

Finally just rolled credits on Mario VS Donkey Kong (2024).
I definitely think I prefer the GBA version despite the quality of life improvements. The graphics are just too generic "Mario" for me. The original had an almost plastic look, and just, imo, still holds up for what it is.
The Switch version is definitely a lot smoother to control, and the two additional worlds are a great fit and a lot of fun.
That said, the original game is one of my favorite GBA titles. I have fond memories receiving it as a gift 20 years ago. I still have my original copy. The Switch version somehow feels soul-less. I just feel like it lacks the heart of the original.
Also, the removal of Mario's gibberish Italian slurs greatly offends me.

I beat and 100%'d Donkey Kong Land 2 . It's decent.
[imgt w=1536 h=2048]https://pbs.twimg.co...[/imgt]
It's hard to be passionate about DKL2 since, unlike the other Land games, this one sticks very closely to its superior SNES counterpart. The world map, level names, and general gimmicks are all direct imitations. Though the stages have new level designs, it makes you ask, "why bother?" It's still an enjoyable time, but it doesn't do quite enough to justify its existence in 2024.

Nowadays, you're right. As a kid who was a huge fan of Donkey Kong Country but didn't have a SNES, though, these games were a godsend. I played through all three of them back in the day on my original DMG Game Boy.

No, I didn't. Don't really have a good reason why not, though. I don't think I was a big GBC player by the time it came out. That, and as a 1:1 port, the hardware is just too much of a downgrade from the SNES. The Land titles made the right move in trying to be fraternal twins instead of identical ones.
I debated making that my next DK game this month, though.

Go for it, I say. It's a faithful port with a few fun extras thrown in. There's even a unique stage in the final world: Necky Nutmare.
