We still need a tagline/subtitle whatever. This can be the voting page. The nominees so far:
And if anyone has another better one, just say it and if other like it say you like it.

Still this.
I'd just like to say, I enjoy playing Altered Beast. That being said, I've only ever played the Genesis version. Should I try the arcade version? I know it's available on VCA.
Also,
I vote for this.

I've never played either version, but it's pretty much a rule that console ports are always inferior to the arcade originals. You should definitely try out the arcade version.
As for the subtitle, I'm going to vote for
If everything followed that rule, Contra wouldn't have existed as a series.
Hello there.
Hola. Keep a low profile for 15 more days and you're in the clear.
Welcome! What are your favorite furry things?
I can't take another loss T_T

Well, I haven't actually played the arcade games (I'm waiting until I get a 360 for that) but I think it's pretty clear that the arcade Contras are better than the NES conversions. Contra 3 and Hard Corps (which I have played) are likely better than both, but they aren't arcade-to-console ports anyway.

Is anybody artsy here?
Prax is.
FFT(A) series has so many good designs. FFXII too, I guess, since it's based on the same world.
Contra 1 NES is far better than the arcade game. Super C is pretty good on both. Contra 3 and Hard Corps don't have arcade versions (other than arcade hardware running the originals) and it's up to your taste whether they are better than the first two, since they have a bit different focus. I prefer the first two.
Contra 4 is better than them all.

D-Pad, Kai, heka...some others too, I'm sure.

I haven't played the Contra games, though I 'know' of the SNES one due to osmosis (read a walkthrough of the game in a games magazine).
One of my favorite arcade games that I haven't beaten is Metal Slug. Man, that series has good sprite work.

If you like those games you should check out Mercenary Kings. It's looking pretty sweet.

I love Contra, but don't care much for Metal Slug, despite being similar.
Is there an English version, or at least a version with subs? I really want to see this.

Bangaa are the best.
I haven't played the original arcade Contras, just the NES ones, so I can't really argue this point too hard, but just from watching videos, the arcade versions have better graphics and it seems like they have better pacing, too. But Contra might not be the best example, since I haven't played the arcade games. I can say firsthand that the original arcade versions of games like Forgotten Worlds, Final Fight, Captain Commando, and the first two Ghosts 'n Goblins games are all better than their console ports. I'm also not arguing that game series get worse or better when they make the jump from arcade to console, just that if you have the choice between playing an arcade game or playing its console downport, there's not really any reason to pick the port.

Yeah, I definitely want to play a Metal Slug eventually. They look really great.

If you know where to look, yes
Anyhow, the games I happened to play the most in arcades are:
Hydro Thunder
Cruisin' USA
Time Crisis
Metal Slug
Aero Fighters
Brave Firefighters (at a Chuck E. Cheese)
Out of those, Hydro Thunder and Aero Fighters were my favorites. That throttle was something ...

I used to play a ton of The Simpsons, TMNT, and The Avengers. Nowadays I can't really get into any of those, though, and instead I prefer Capcom's beat-em-ups.
Bangaa are pretty good, yes.
I mostly play House of the Dead/2 in arcades, because that's what I can find locally that I care about. Arcade racers are too expensive. Although I want to try the Cruis'n USA and Outrun 2 machines I found.
As for Contra arcade, my issues with it is that the controls aren't as fluid as the NES version, and the second half of the game is pretty messy. But yea, I'm gonna go get the VCA version of Altered Beast, anyway.
