A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
The Nintendo Puzzle Collection (2003) is a compilation disc exclusive to Japan that contains three popular Nintendo Puzzle games: Dr. Mario, Pan De Pon, and Yoshi’s Cookie. But connecting a Gamecube-to-GBA link cable, portable versions of these games can be downloaded to an empty Gameboy Advance via the link cable. Even though this disc was […]
Pretty Girls Escape PLUS is the latest game in this long running EastAsiaSoft published series only this time it focuses on matching-colored blocks. There isn’t much replay value in this simple puzzle game, but it only takes a few minutes to unlock the Platinum trophy. Imagine a Tetris well pre-filled with colored blocked. If two […]
Essentially a glorified Sokoban game, Knowledge Keeper offers plenty of single player puzzle solving for five bucks. Playing as a tiny robed wizard character thing that walks like he is in an early South Park episode, it is your jobs to flip switches, walk through teleporters, push boxes, avoid water/pits, change colors, and collect the […]
Ario is a 2.5D action-adventure that has some slight tower defense mechanics periodically. Unfortunately, the lack of polish makes this game unplayable in spots with some truly head scratching design choices. Playing as a boy searching for his mother as it gets raided by odd looking masked enemies, the plot doesn’t make sense. Normally, the […]
Diamond Hands: To the Moon is literally the same game has Hellstruck, Rage with Your Friends right down to the menu interface and gameplay. The only difference is, instead of playing as a demon, you play as a businessman… for some reason. Either way, be prepared to suffer as this game is tough and requires […]
Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike (2003) has an unnecessary connectivity feature with a Gameboy Advance. Exclusively available in the 2-Player Vs mode, a GBA can be linked to display the wingman commands. In other words, if the player didn’t want to tap orders via the Gamecube controller’s d-pad, you can awkwardly take your […]
Hellstruck: Rage with Your Friends is a Jump King clone. If you never played Jump King, it is a comically difficult vertical platformer that demands perfection and the utmost dedication. Playing as a demon, it is your job to jump from platform to platform to reach the top. There are no enemies to fight. No […]
Clearly inspired by classic 8-bit Castlevania, Crypt Stalker is essentially a new NES-style Castlevania game right down to the overall interface, spritework, gameplay, and plot, but with some welcomed editions. Instead of being a descendant of a long line of professional vampire killers, you play as a stalker – one deemed worthy enough to save […]
This week, me and Gillman play some Supermarket Simulator (PC, 2024). During this quick stream, we talk about simulators in general and how they have annoyingly taken over all aspects of gaming recently.
Crash Nitro Kart on Nintendo Gamecube has two connectivity features with a Gameboy Advance. If the GBA cartridge version is connected, racers, stages, and cheats become unlocked (Spyro on the GBA version becomes playable). If an empty GBA is linked, a pointless music-based mini game can be downloaded.
