Sorry to bump an old thread, but..... WISE FWOM YOUR GWAVE!
I'm amazed by how many people have said Last Resort..... that was about the second shmup that came into my head (behind a new Blazing Star/Pulstar game), and the thought of it gives me chills.... Last Resort was an incredible game, and I can only imagine how a pseudo-3D version of it would turn out.
Also, I know it was a little late for such games, but a top-down driver a la Driftout would have been cool!
According to Wikipedia, SNK made different versions of the board, one that plays drivers, one that plays Beast Busters, and one that plays the fighting games. My question is this: If that is true, is there any reason the fighting board couldn't run, say, a shooter on it? Or a sports title, or anything else for that matter?
Earthis, I hadn't heard of Viewpoint 2064 before. I find it a little hard to picture how that game would control.... certainly could've made for an interesting Hyper64 title, though.
