A very fun fighting game that has not been officially released on modern consoles or PC that would benefit the community that still enjoys playing today and introduce more players.
a very quirky, fast paced 3d fighter created in a heavily modified fighting vipers game and virtua fighter engine, that has an unique style that still to this day looks great, a little but great competitive community that still manages to show how this game can actually be mad fun, i used to play it on sonic gems collection for gamecube, and now still playing it on my xbox 360 with tons of features that included playable honey the cat for arcade mode, and playable metal sonic and eggman in versus mode my reason to wish this game being on GOG apart of the commodities of pc, is to preserve what i consider one of the must underrated sonic game ever, and one of my favourite sonic games of all time

Even if I'm not fond of the fighting genre, it was fun playing with Sonic and the other characters. Bark was my main GOAT with his reach and grabs. Wish the remastered version with Honey the Cat was available on all platforms instead of byuing a Like a Dragon spinoff just for that.

Me and my family played this game for hours in gatherings and parties, it's a really fun fighting game and the cartoonish effects made it funny and quite charming. Even today I still respect and love this game, and the soundtrack is incredible too.

Game of my childhood, I still remember when I played this in the Sonic Gem Collection and I always got stuck with Bank or Fang. I want my revenge now that I'm an adult.
Considering the game has been ported multiple times on different hardware over the years, it is unlikely they are unable to port it here. We just need a little push!

Shadow of the Ninja Reborn
Shadow of the Ninja RebornThis trailblazer in ninja action games is returning after 33 years. The original title was released on the Japanese Nintendo Family Computer by Natsume Inc. in 1990. At the time, it was one of the most polished Family Computer action games and rated as one of the best two-player coop games. It was also the first of a series of titles that solidified Natsume’s reputation as a master of action games. Released as Shadow of Ninja in North America and Blue Shadow in Europe, this classic is finally returning in a completely new production.

Trojan
TrojanThe arcade version can be played by up to two players alternating. The game's controls consists of an eight-way joystick and two action buttons. Similarly to Kung-Fu Master or Rush'n Attack, the player jumps by holding the joystick upwards instead of having a dedicated jump button like other side-scrolling action games. Instead, one button is used to swing the sword at enemies and the other button is used to hold the shield to block enemy attacks, including projectiles such as throwing knives and arrows. The shield can be held towards the player while standing or crouching, as well as upwards vertically and diagonally. Some enemies will throw magic balls which will cause the player to lose their sword and shield if they block. During these instances, the player will fight barehanded, with the sword and shield buttons used to punch and kick respectively. The sword and shield will appear on-screen after some point, allowing the player to recover their weapon. Other power-ups includes floating hearts that will restore the player's health and jumping spots where the player can jump higher than usual. The game consist of six stages, where the player will face the usual series of small fry enemies, as well as a sub-boss at the middle of each stage and a boss at the end. The player is allowed to start the game at any of the six stages. However, the player must play through the entire game again after defeating the final boss, Achilles, in order to see the true ending (similarly to Ghosts'n Goblins). The player can continue after a game over depending on the dip switch settings.

Tiger Road
Tiger RoadThis arcade conversion is a beat 'em up in which you (as Lee Wong) must rescue the village children from the evil Ryo Ken Oh. Many levels are horizontally scrolling, although with high ledges to jump onto and follow for a slightly different path. Magic urns containing improved weapons appear frequently. Most enemies are easy to attack and only need one hit to kill, although they come at you in large hordes. Once you get to the indoor sections you will find big enemies with the ability to kill you with one hit, in sections set on multiple levels complete with stairways.
