One time my friend and I randomly found a Time Killers machine at a bowling alley. We'd have been about 12 or 13 I think. We were fascinated by it and spent every spare moment and coin we could find playing that thing. Most other kids were into street fighter and mortal kombat at the time. It was so weird and cool to find this obscure mystery of a machine that combined elements of both. Nobody we knew had a clue what it was. Apparently it isn't very good, but we played the crap out of it until it disappeared out of the lineup.
I totally remember Time Killers! As an edgy kid I thought the violence was awesome but in hindsight it wasn’t a very well made game. It did have a certain charm to it though compared to other fighters of that time.
That also reminds me of a game I remember called Pigskin where it was like vikings playing football and it was super violent.
I think I partially enjoyed it because it was the only fighting game I could do reasonably well at for some reason. Should dust off my copy of Mame and see if it really is as bad as all that.
