Llist updated.

Quite a lot of nominations, which is good, but some people that have expressed an interest haven't actually put forward nominations.

And where the hell is Muttley's?

Hmm, how about Shikigami No Shiro II on the Naomi, that should cut down the competition a bit

Enjoy the sun

I like that game! I suspect it's not emulated, or if it is, not something that will run on basic PCs, so we'd probably have to disqualify it as a nomination.

Wish I had my US PS2 here now, though, so I could have a quick game. Unless I just nip out and buy the UK version...

Oh well if you've nominated that I shall not nominate Shadow Dancer.

You know, I did spot Shinobi in the thread somewhere, but it didn't stand out when I was going through them for the edit. Strange. Consider it done.

Sorry for my ignorance and lack of googling, but what's a "Naomi"?

Naomi is a particular type of Sega arcade hardware with a similar architecture to the Dreamcast.

OK, here's the deal.

Later today I will put up 6 votes, with 4 randomly selected games from this list in each. Everyone votes for the game they would like to play out of each 4. That will give us the 6 games we need for the Summer Six-Pack.

Currently we have 22 nominations, so if we don't get another 2 by later today I will use the random game selector in WolfMAMEPlus to pad the game numbers up to 24 (obviously I will check the games are playable and fulfil standard Lleague requirements).

Because of the voting procedure, the competition will not start until next Sunday, with voting closing on Friday night (to give me time to generate all the Lleader Llists, etc.).

So, the Summer Six-Pack will run from 11th June - 6th August (8 weeks total).

I will endeavour to get all the games included in the vote available for download, so you can try them out before voting if you can't decide (will give you something to do this week).

Any comments?

I nominate Penguin-Kun Wars (mame) - A remarkably frenetic little game of quirky table tennis-iness. Lob balls at your opponent on the other side of the table, and getting rid of all balls on your side. Getting hit by a ball gets you stunned for a few seconds, and you get a score bonus for stunnning your opponent. You win when all the balls are on your opponents side.

It's ace.

Is Penguin-kun Wars a high score game? I can't remember, it's been ages since I played it. It was a good laugh from what I remember.

I've added it to the list, anyway.
