Those purveyors of retro re-releases Hamster Corporation has revealed four more titles headed to modern platforms over the coming weeks and months. Clearly the publisher has plans to continue bolstering its Arcade Archive range well into the new year and beyond.
The four classic arcades preparing themselves for launch include Taito’s cute top-down shooterKiKi KaiKai(which would becomePocky & Rockyin its following years). Also en route are Jaleco’s 1989 shmupSaint Dragonand, from UPL 1985 air-hockey titlePenguin Wars, and its 1986 vertically-scrolling shmup,XX Mission.
No dates or platforms were specifically mentioned, but we’ll likely see these four games roll out weekly on PS4 and/or Nintendo Switch, once theprevious four revealshave been released. One can also expect each game to cost $8, which remains a bit of a sticking point given the limited playability of some of these re-releases(Penguin Wars, for example).
Incidentally, this week’s release is Technos’ clunky wrestling titleMat Mania, available to download now on Nintendo Switch.
