G-type | 2,482 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) Can you name the game from just a partial screenshot? Whoever guesses it correctly, gets to post the next challenge. If there are no correct guesses within 24 hours of posting, you can follow up with a hint or a larger portion of the image If there are still no correct guesses after 48 hours, you have successfully stumped VGS and may post a new challenge or nominate one of the other players to go next. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Challenge #1: Edited July 27, 2023 by G-type 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RH | 4,903 Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Well, I tried to search for similar screens. It looks like a beatemup background, but the angle is off. Beatemups tend to be tilted as if you're looking down so you can see the street, where this is squared offed. It's more like a platformer but I can't recall ever seeing store fronts in a platform. My first thought was maybe Yo! Noid but that wasn't it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red | 437 Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 That's from the best street brawler on NES, Bad Street Brawler! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So... my guess was right that it was a beatemup. Good eye, @Red! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a feeling it was a beat-'em-up. I didn't know the game well enough to place it, but now that I do a search it comes right up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronzeshield | 293 Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Reminds me intensely of Caliber .50 on the Genesis but I don't think it's that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
