    Can't Remember Old Game - Help?

    Alright so i'm bored and have been messing around with emulators and stuff for fun lately.

    Anyway, there was this really old game that I always wanted to try but can't remember the name but here is what I know.

    (I don't know what system/platform it was on)

    1) It was on a TV show. On the tv show the two players would go against each other and try, i can't remember, if it was kill each other or just get a high score. I just remember this was the only time I ever saw the game was on this TV show where they'd have tournaments against each other.
    2) I want to say there was either gold/diamonds or circular yellow powerups, whatever they were, around the levels that you could collect.
    3)? I want to say the guys you controlled were maybe blue in color (armor?)
    4) I think it was futuristic in setting as I think they had like armor/protective marine stuff
    5) It had a top-down/or isometric point of view.


    It had SNES or worse graphics, so it wasn't after that system. It was sort of like an earlier Smash TV (and not Gauntlet)


    I just did some searching online too for old TV gameshows, i'm think it was either on Nick Arcade or VideoPower or whatever it was called.

    Eitherway there was a place where they had in the center of the room these arcade units that were attached to each other w/ seats in them that the kids would sit in. The screens were there and thats where they'd play, it was almost like an arena shape.

                Nah the Tron video game is too old-school, it had better bit graphics than that. Like 8-bit nintendo-esque.

                Nope it wasn't a bomberman game as I remember those.

                          nope...sorry. It was the only show I could remember that had kids play against each other in videogames. I'm still banging my head to see if I can remember the game....nothing comes to mind.

                          Also the host to Video Power was Johnny Arcade now on Law & Order: Criminal Intent.
