Isn't this free in the Amazon Underground App Store?

Michael Jacksons Moonwalker was an absolute gem, albeit the arcade version (often found in the local fair ground) was far superior to the one pushed out on to home consoles.

Ah, I remember it well. This and operation wolf (and dare I say Michael Jacksons moonwalker) are some of my most vivid childhood gaming memories. Loved the sweetie/chocolate land level

Well its good someone loves it.

​Md version played similar to shinobi/shadow dancer etc

I must of played a different game as the one on the megadrive was a dog, even if you could pick it up for buttons as everyone wanted rid.

Yes, it plays brilliantly on it - no need to sideload it either.

​You been struck back teh teh, you been hit back teh, a smooth criminal!

​You may need sixaxis pairing tool and have it rooted to play wirelessly.

Any chance this'll work with a Dualshock 4 connected? Can't imagine playing on a touchscreen

Will this work with the Nvidia Shield?

The whole idea that Michael Jackson was hunting for lost children hiding and having to touch then with his 'magic dust' to set them free is a lot darker now than back then.....

I used to love wasting my pocket money on that game... will search for the mame...

​Are you okay?......

Annie are you okay, are you okay Annie?

No it doesn't at all, keep wearing the tin hat fella....

No, no they really weren't...

Great conversion of a great game, nightmare to play on a touchscreen but superb on a controller.

​Moon Walker both arcade and mega drive version are excellent

Mmmmm tab clear, that's evoking nostalgia right there

That is a **** of permissions. The monitoring SMS one actually tells the person it's going to spy on them.

This just makes me want to play Quackshot now

and this offer cost 50p more with all the same info going out, maybe even more info. who knows.

Most of the permissions are there due to the way andorid functions, the access to SMS is not for snopping, but for recieving sms confirmations or paying like many apps and security do. Similar with others. The potential for other uses are there of course just like any app that needs it, google has just te same potential with it's ability to read SMS.
Again it is still 50p more than Amazon Apps.

(i'm not directing at you, it's the general tone of HUKD anti-amazon fans).

50p is neither here or there for the argument in reality, it's naff all. Even if it is enough difference for a new phone/ssd deal to be posted again. It's the missinformation an scaremongering of the Amazon Underground 'permissions' that's the problem here. The big advantage of Google Apps is the much simpilar update mechanism, Amazon Apps is naff and cumbersome from a standard Android phone user.

Great game. Got the PC conversion too...lots of fun...and yes, Quackshot was awesome.
Still got my Megadrive somewhere and a stack of Mean Machines. :smile:
Big fan of Ghouls 'n Ghosts and Fantastic Dizzy too.

As I said, I downloaded and used Amazon Underground when I had an Android. I'm just pointing out to people who are going "It's free! It's free!" that it's only free if you price Amazon having access to all the data that BuzzDuraband listed above as being worth nothing to you.

Just the same as Google Store/Play and the other parts it needs. No difference, it just explicitly tells you on Amazon underground. Both provide you with more than just games, amazon underground is more than just the Apps too.
One is just pre-installed from the start (either Google on many Android devices or Amazon on fire devices.
I guess you trust Google more, one of the largest datamining companies in the world. ?

​Yeah I know:) been following it

​??? it's is a downloaded it yesterday

it's free on Amazon just download the Amazon app on your mobile it will stay on your phone even if you delete app after. :-)

You're selling your soul to Amazon for those "free" apps. Look at the permissions it needs when the Amazon app is installing. Oh you want to read my text messages? Really?!

Heat for description!

Depends if you trust Amazon at least the same as you trust Google / Your Phone OEM? They all make money by mining your data.

Not quite. You'll be handing the information to Amazon who aren't providing the game to you out of the goodness of their blackened tax dodging hearts. They'll get every penny's worth back.

Your choice of course - when I had an Android phone, I happily installed and ran the Amazon Underground App but I was conscious that it wasn't some charitable endeavour.

Well you need the Amazon Underground App on your phone to download the apps and to keep acquirement of the apps. When I asked 'at what cost?', I was referring simply to the permissions you accepted Amazon to perform.





Some won't mind these, some will. I don't have Amazon Underground installed on any of my devices.

So exactly the same as if I download from Google Play. But 50p cheaper. Thanks for clearing that up.

Just their ones - although those apps can ask for permission for other information (e.g. access to your photos, your location, your contacts, etc).

Use of apps? All the apps on my phone or just the ones I install through Amazon underground?

The Amazon Underground App necessitates the disabling of a security protocol and allowing information about the use of apps to go back to Amazon. As has been pointed out, if something is supplied to you free of charge, chances are that you're the product being sold.

I don't understand your comment? It is free to download using the Amazon Underground App. So cheaper than 50p... The cost is zero... Or am I missing something?

That's a shame but hey, I've got the original installed via emulator on my shield tablet anyway ^_^

spider level or the toy box level

I remember playing the level with the donuts thinking that I really fancied eating one. as if by some miracle mum gets home from work with a job lot of near expired donuts. me and my brother ate about 7 each, in hindsight it was a mistake...

I have a Japanese MD1 with RGB cable, Sony Trinitron portable CRT and a Everdrive sitting in my sideboard.. just gathering dust. Shame I'm at work really.

Gunstar Heroes is the pinnacle of video gaming.

I was going to get this for Ps3.. how does the android version compare?

I disagree. It should be twice as hot because it's not on the Amazon Underground App.

It certainly is free, but at what actual cost?

Ah class, cheers for that.

How does this play on a phone?

Either way it's irrelevant as I've added heat for the description alone.

Nice game, one of the very few I completed as a young lad! Well worth 50 new pence for the youngstas.

There is a full online archive of their stuff here

This has some stonking reviews on the Megadrive when it came out. Mean Machines gave it 95% and said it was the best platformer on the Megadrive. Personally, I preferred Robocod but that was released almost a year later.

I didn't really get into this during the mega drive era. I was a road rash fan along with Toejam and Earl. I rarely hear people mention Toejam and Earl, sounds like I'm the only one who played it :0

You should experience it at some point, if not just for comparison reasoning. I'm sure it (I know it can be) obtained for MAME :smiley:

Unfortunately I never got the opportunity to play the arcade version - too busy winning goldfish!
