Price Alert! Rabio Lepus (aka Rabbit Punch) Gets a Robot Rabbit Rebate!

Good news for fans of obscure side-scrolling shooters! Rabio Lepus (which I remember in arcades as "Rabbit Punch") is now half off its original price on the Nintendo Switch, bringing the total down to $3.99. This was one of developer Video System's first games, starring two rabbit droids blasting and punching their way through the galaxy in an effort to rescue a kidnapped princess. Yes, there's actually a melee attack, reminiscent of the close range sword swipes in Lords of Thunder for the TurboDuo.

But wait, there's more! Masaya's Gynoug (aka Wings of Wor) and Advanced Busterhawk Gleylancer are on sale for $3.49 each, a historic low for both games. And Aero Fighters 2, created by the aforementioned Video System, is also reduced to half its retail price. Now you can take to the skies and blow up world monuments as a baby or a dolphin, all for just $3.99!

Old Games For Old Gamers

@OldGames4OldGamers@kbin.social

Discussion of retro video games (circa 1972 to 2013), from the perspective of those who played them the first time around. Pull up a chair and share your experiences. What was your first game console? What retro games have you played lately, and what recent homebrew titles hope to fill gaps in an orphaned console's library? This is the place to talk about it!

Rules

This is still early, so the rules aren't finalized, and are subject to expand and change when the situation demands it.

Don't be a jerk. That should give you a pretty good idea of how to behave, but in case you need specifics, treat other users respectfully, and avoid being racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic. Moderate snark is fine, but try not to make things personal.
Sharing homebrew games is very much encouraged, but don't provide links to officially released software still protected by copyright. Homebrew games based on existing IP is fine, and ROMs released to the public domain or available with a free use license are fine.
No porn, no illegal content.
Trades and sales are not banned, but this magazine and its owner cannot be held liable for transactions gone wrong. This isn't the place for that... have you considered Cheap Ass Gamer instead?
Discussion of older game systems (2013 and before) and classic games for recent consoles is preferred. Right now, that dividing line is set at the Xbox One, which was recently discontinued by Microsoft.
