Apparently this is the arcade version of Michael Jackson's Moonwalker. The Genesis version was a side-scroller.

I actually dig the chiptune Smooth Criminal.

Edit: Oh damn, cock-bot shows up at 8:25 and they're doing chiptune Beat It instead.

    I have it for Sega Master System. Pretty strange game. The sound effect when you rescue kids from trunks of cars sticks with me for some reason.

    I only played it in the arcade, and this was on mame. I never played the Genesis one. But yeah, it was labeled thriller in the menu but like a ton of other games the thing shipped with, was probably mislabeled.

    No, but towards the end of every level when you find bubbles the monkey you suddenly get an iron man esque suit.

    OP's mind while recording that bit:

    "I'm bad! I'm bad! I'm really, really bad!"

    Any recommendations for this? I’ve been pretty guilty about just using emulators to play and replay Pokemon games and Pokemon ROMhacks.

    I do happen to have just been gifted a R36S as well. So far I have really only used it to play Pokemon Crystal for about 15 minutes.

    I'll recommend in a different direction. Abomi Nation on Steam is basically like if Pokemon were built around Nuzlockes challenges. Often goes on sale for only a few bucks. It doesn't have any real Pokemon, but I really like the designs.

    If you're looking for other games to play, check out RetroAchievements. They have all kinds of events and stuff to reduce the "decision paralysis" that can come from having access to way too many games.
