Games are the most optimistic way I have found of looking at the world

I was not a natural parent. The love was there instantly, but with it came all this anxiety I had not expected. Having a baby was like opening the door to a hilariously overstacked closet, and all of a sudden my simple life was buried under endless new things, new worries and new sources of nightmares. Cutlery was suddenly a class of sharp objects. Plug sockets were suddenly electrocution hazards. A mid-day walk through the nearby woods was suddenly filled with uneven flooring, with deadly mushrooms one might accidentally eat. Read more

Some of these have been fairly well known (such as Rave Racer and Aqua Jet ), while others have been a bit more niche ( Armadillo Racing , for example), but the end result is all the same: giving people an official way to experience various arcade titles from the comfort of their own home, with some added bonuses and options for good measure.

An Obscure Irem Beat 'Em Up Is Getting A Revival Later This Year, Courtesy Of City Connection

Ninja Baseball League-Man is back! Chances are, if I asked people to name an Irem arcade game, their first thought wouldn't be Ninja Baseball League-Man (otherwise known in the West as Ninja Baseball Bat Man ). Designed as Irem's answer to Konami's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade games, the game rather famously didn't do too well in the US at the time of its release , with much of its success being limited to Japan. This has led the creator of the game's concept, Drew Maniscalco, in the past to label the performance in the States "a disaster," with the designer attributing the poor performance to changing priorities at Irem America towards the console market (particularly the SNES), and a lack of investment in the game's marketing.
