A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Inside the thoughts of Sir SquallSnake.
The US saw the release of 16 official Gameboy cartridges to feature the built-in Rumble Pak. Japan featured 7 exclusive Gameboy Rumble Pak games. The majority of them being pinball and fishing games. Powered by a single AAA battery and sporting a removable battery cover (which always seemed to get lost), these unique games are […]
The Gamecube version of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) and be linked with the Gameboy Advance in two ways. First, by connecting an empty GBA, 2 mini game games can be downloaded: a Bewjeweled clone and a Mode-7 flying racer. The other linking feature requires the GBA cartridge version of Harry Potter […]
This week, Gillman and I play a bit of TCG Card Shop Simulator on PC. During this steam, I cannot believe the amount of people that are this passionate about card games, how they are willing to spend crazy money on stupid plushies, and how they smell so bad that you literally need to Febreze […]

This week, Gillman and I played through a couple stages in the newly released Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland on PC because it was the free game of the week on the Epic Game Store. Basically, I just wanted to check out the NES-mode, which didn’t disappoint.
Pokemon Channel (2003) is the sequel to N64’s Hey You Pikachu!. In other words, it is sort of a virtual pet simulator. Sort of… Packed inside the Pokemon Channel box were 3 GBA eReader cards that can be scanned into the game. In short, they are lousy line art cards to paint with a very […]
Released in August 1999 in the US, the Neogeo Pocket Color was SNK’s attempt to sneak into the handheld video game market, competing with the Nintendo Gameboy/Gameboy Color and the Pokemon craze that was happening at the time. About a year later, SNK hit troubling times and was purchased by Azure, a pachinko manufacturer, and […]
EA’s Gamecube version of Lord of the Rings: Return of the King can be linked with the Gameboy Advance version. In the Cube game, players can upload abilities points gained in the GBA version. In the GBA game, Samwise Gamgee becomes unlocked during multiplayer link cable sessions. There is also the chance to see rare […]
Dexterity is a forgotten SNK original that is basically real-time Othello. The 2 player link cable multiplayer mode is pretty fun once you understand how to defeat enemies by flipping tiles.
