Nekketsu Oyako (Sega Saturn) longplay

Описание: aka Hot-Blooded Family. Tool-assisted playthrough as Rando. Using savestates at loading screens.

Not so well known Final Fight clone first released for PSX and later redone for Saturn and released in Japan only. Haven't tried the PSX version, but according to some forum posts Saturn version got extra content such as some background animations plus new character and enemy moves.

Design is not bad and music is mostly quite good, but gameplay unfortunately not so much. Different type of attacks you can do is not that impressive, especially considering this game was released about 5 years after Final Fight. Few moves are very hard to execute even though the key combination is simple. More often than not, different move than intended is pulled. What's even worse the most difficult moves are not that useful so in fact player is encouraged to spam only few simple moves and not to try using all the moves at arsenal.

Lack of block option simplifies the combat even further and especially against bosses the only solid strategy is trying to lure them near the same level with you, but attacks needs to be done just before they reach the line of sight. Otherwise bosses will connect with a regular or special attack which are almost always impossible to avoid or counter.

Can be fun for a while when not taken too seriously, especially in 2P mode, but doesn't hold much replaying value because of simple and frustrating gameplay.
