This cache is part of the A-Z "Arcade Series", based on early 70's through mid-90's arcade games. These machines were a huge part of my early-mid childhood. Newport had quite a few locations with them, including the former Sunset Lanes & Lounge (Bowling Alley), Bud's Deli, Ames, and Kelly's Laundromat. Also, the current Village and Plaza Pizzas', and Best Dressed Laundromat locations had/have games on which I have spent fistfuls of quarters on.
An easy stroll down a well maintained "Rail to Trail." You are looking for a small, neon-green waterproof tube, containing only a log and pencil. Happy hunting, enjoy your walk!
Battletoads Arcade, also known as Super Battletoads or just Battletoads, is a 1994 scrolling beat 'em up arcade game in the Battletoads series developed by Rare and published by Electronic Arts. Up to three players, as the Battletoads, brawl aliens and mutant rodents through six levels to save the universe from the Dark Queen. The game also includes vertical and bonus levels. Each Toad has its own signature attack, and as customary for the series, players can knock enemies towards the screen, breaking the fourth wall.
Rare took greater liberties with violence and gore in Battletoads Arcade since the product was not destined for home consoles. It was Rare's first game to use the 3D graphics technology that was implemented in Donkey Kong Country and Killer Instinct. Although the game playtested well and appeared financially viable, the publisher hesitated to release the game. A port for the Super NES was in production but canceled. The game received its console debut when it was emulated in the 2015 Rare Replay, a compilation of games from Rare's history for the Xbox One.
A Rare employee reported that the game was unsuccessful in the arcades. An AllGame reviewer found that the game was true to the original's style and had better graphics but was still a let down. Retro Gamer has stated that the game is obscure now but had all the hallmarks of a Rare release. Rare Replay reviewers were surprised by the quality of the game and some considered it a highlight of the package. Battletoads Arcade remains the last entry in the Battletoads series.
