<p>Hamster has confirmed that the next game in its popular <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/guide-every-arcade-archives-game-on-nintendo-switch-plus-our-top-picks">Arcade Archives</a> series is Seibu Kaihatsu’s <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/arcade_archives_zero_team">Zero Team</a></strong>, a side-scrolling fighter from 1993 which, until very recently, was considered something of a lost classic, due to the fact that it was never ported to consoles and only became playable in MAME in 2016.</p>
<p>Seibu Kaihatsu is most famous for its <strong>Raiden</strong> series, but Zero Team proved it was just as adept in other genres, too. Boasting slightly smaller sprites than Capcom’s <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/snes/final_fight">Final Fight</a></strong> – which is a clear inspiration – Zero Team is nonetheless a good time if you’re a fan of belt-scrolling brawlers. It’s a shame that it never got ported in the ’90s, but, thanks to its inclusion in the burgeoning Arcade Archives range, it can now reach a wider audience.</p>
<p>Zero Team will cost the usual £6.29 / $7.99 / 6.99 Euros, and will apparently include both the Japanese <em>and</em> western versions of the game (the latter was rebalanced). Will you be downloading it tomorrow? Let us know with a comment.</p>
