Time Gal for Mega CD with tremendous conversion by Wolf Team. I don't know much about MD tech but looks like they converted FMV to big sprites. Wolf Team even converted their FMV logo to sprite style. OP song belongs to top OP song list.

US version OP is completely scuffed.

Original arcade version.

I just want a version of Time Gal that looks like the arcade version but has the silly voice over of the English Sega CD version that I have a soft spot for.

I miss the days of seeing cute nicknames in JP game credits. Taito's Ninja Kids credits a [FZR.MOM](https://i.imgur.com/M3zL0wD.png) for the programming. We should maybe have a thread for the forgotten [Alien Poles](https://i.imgur.com/xYK4DrL.png) of the world.

This thread is so full of life-affirming energy.

My local pinball bar (Walt's in Eagle Rock) used to have this Ice Cold Beer machine (they might still have it, don't really know what the post-pandemic status over there is)

Still alive here at Button Mash! Think I only ever made it as far as the 3rd or 4th hole. It's a great barcade game. Everyone cheers each other on to the next level and there is a collective groan of disappointment every time you (inevitably) wobble a little too hard and lose

@vegetables#26365 Woooooooow, it genuinely makes my day to see that again. Is that the same machine from Walt‘s? I know that pinball machines get around town a bit, at least. I’ve read a bit about Button Mash & the local arcade scene during the pandemic, & I hardly know what to say other than so many folks are rooting for you. How are things looking as the vax proliferates, if you're not tired of the question?

And I'm at just about the same skill level, at best, though I just really enjoy how tactile that machine feels. And it is definitely a very communal experience to watch others play. My friends are much better at it than me -- I don't think we've ever neglected to play together when it's in the room

@tokucowboy#26376 Oh man, I don‘t own button mash. I sure wish I did. Jordan is just a really nice guy and is letting my partner and I use the space since he’s not open right now. I don't want to speak for him, but I do know he plans on reopening when things are more concretely safe for everyone.

Also, I think Walt's Bar might be opening soon! Or at least they've started doing food pop ups. Really liked that place the one time I went

@vegetables#26377 Gotcha, I was assuming some sorta involvement since you were in the space, but that is good to hear regardless. Very glad to know that they‘re still floating by & will hopefully still be here when it’s safe

I adore Walt's, too. I've seen herds of people out there recently which is a no-go for me, but when pinball is back in a safe post-vax capacity, I will be there to pinball. They always had beautiful machines & cheap Hamm's beer, which is enough for me

@vegetables#26365 Oh hey! I remember this from Button Mash! Glad someone posted it in this thread, because I specifically remember being like damn, that's straight up Taito!

I started this thread and in all this time I forgot that I have an Ice Cold Beer machine and that it was by Taito.

It is not working at the moment.

Egret II mini looks fantastic.

@docky#32393 I sure am gonna throw a lot of money at this tiny arcade machine. 95% of my recent video game playing has all been on the Astro City Mini. I am absolutely sold on teeny arcade machines now
