| + | You can emulate most of these games released before 2002 with [http://mamedev.org/ MAME] (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator). Some games (Capcom, SNK) run better on [https://ci.appveyor.com/project/tmaul/fbneo-kbhgd/build/artifacts FinalBurn Neo], Playstation/Namco-based hardware runs better on [http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/arcade/zinc.html ZiNc]. NAOMI and NAOMI 2 games can be emulated in [http://demul.emulation64.com/ Demul] and/or [http://builds.reicast.com/ reicast], with varying compatibility. [http://nebula.emulatronia.com/ Nebula] also has additional optimization for SNK, Capcom, Konami and PolyGameMaster systems, as well as the Sega Model 2 Emulator, but they haven't been updated in years. For Model 3 games, [https://www.supermodel3.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1206 Supermodel 3] is the only that can do it (for now). For most PC-based arcade games, use [https://teknoparrot.com Teknoparrot]. |

Is much easier than the first two games and it is also shorter, however, after the first level, (aside from the last level) you can choose the stages any way you want like Mega Man. You can no longer save civilians like the first two, but instead you save your partners and sometimes you will get an extra life for it for no apparent reason. Still a fun game in the series. At this point, it had nothing to do with being in a house which raises the question. Why is it stil being called "HOUSE" of the Dead? |

It uses a machine gun (Uzi) for your main weapon and a button for a secondary attack, grenades (limited, but clear a whole screen at a time). A new function is where the zombies grab hold of you, or push you to the ground, and you gotta shake the gun like you have parkinson's to fill a bar up that pushes the zombies back, or you lose a life point. Continues the same (somewhat interesting) plot, and introduces new characters, weapons, continues the great trend of naming the bosses after the Tarot cards and multiple endings.

| − | |Incerdibly obscure as in I ONLY FOUND THIS IN A CRUISE SHIP OF ALL PLACES, BUT NO OTHER ARCADE obscure. You can barely find it on the internet for that matter, but this game is incredibly fun. Take command of treasure hunters and use you pew pew magic staff into ancient rooms and fight your way to the bosses. It has a TON of replayability mainly because it is always different (except fo the bosses) every time you play the game again exploring new rooms that you didn't play in your previous playthrough. Everytime you beat the boss you have a chance to nab the treasure in a sort of mini game. Fail and just move on. Good luck finding one. |

Lite mixing and Popular mixing have three stages, stages increase in difficulty. Technical mixing is where you choose a set which has 8 songs to choose 3 to play in a set order, final song in the set is a boss song to be determined by your performance on the 3 songs you chose yourself. Platinum Crew allows acess to misions which unlock songs to play in popular mixing, weekly challenges, and monthly special charts for songs (the special charts are extremely hard). |

Revision as of 18:58, 2 September 2019
| Arcade games |
You can emulate most of these games released before 2002 with MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator). Some games (Capcom, SNK) run better on FinalBurn Neo, Playstation/Namco-based hardware runs better on ZiNc. NAOMI and NAOMI 2 games can be emulated in Demul and/or reicast, with varying compatibility. Nebula also has additional optimization for SNK, Capcom, Konami and PolyGameMaster systems, as well as the Sega Model 2 Emulator, but they haven't been updated in years. For Model 3 games, Supermodel 3 is the only that can do it (for now). For most PC-based arcade games, use Teknoparrot.
Protip: full MAME sets can be found at Pleasuredome and RetroROMS.
