These moves LOOK like they should be wince-inducing.
But there's no weight. It's a multitude of issues. There's not enough animation frames. You push the button and the graphic for the strike happens, with no frames between, so no sense of inertia or gravity.
Certainly better than ANY console Superman I've played thus far (I know the Gen version has fans), Taito's take on the Man of Steel seems okay, if repetitive. And firing projectiles from his hands? Who does this guy think he is? The Eradicator?
Biggest problem? NO oomph to hits.
It actually shows Clark Kent take off his glasses and suit and fly off as Superman.
Okay, fucking got my attention, Taito.
SUPERMAN
And right away, yes the John Williams classic theme song is here.
THE SIMPSONS
Fuck it, I've already done this.

ASTERIX!
I normally dislike most brawlers, but Asterix uses a modified Turtles in Time engine, which.. hey, I loved Turtles in Time. This is loaded with personality and really good.
These are just quick previews. More to come this summer after #IGCvSNES
Speaking of licensed games where the developer is talking about getting the rights..
First thing's first: I know 100% for a fact Capcom is talking to the rights owners of Cadillacs & Dinosaurs. Long suffering fans, stay tuned..
As for the game: it might use the Final Fight engine, but the "oomph" of the punches is brutal here in a good way. They FEEL impactful.
UP ON THE MESA!
LIVE THE REAL C.O.W. BOYS
STANDING UP FOR LAW & ORDER
AND LIVING BY THE CODE OF THE WEST!
CLEANING UP
THE TERRITORY
KEEPING EVIL
ON ITS TOES
TAKES A DIFFERENT BREED OF THE HEROES
UP ON THE MESA!
LIVE THE REAL C.O.W. BOYS
And they're sunset riders I reckon.
I have an earworm for the damn theme song already.
COME AND RAISE THE MESA TO THE WESTERN SKIES
WITH THE SOUND OF A THOUSAND CATTLE CRIES
A CHOSEN FEW
WOULD SEE THE LIGHT
AND FIGHT WRONG WITH RIGHT!
UP ON MESA!
HIGH ABOVE THE CLOUDS!
THERE'S A WORLD APART
FROM ALL THE REST!
