Like Space Harrier before it, SEGA AGES Columns II is a faithful console port of the arcade version thanks to the consistently high emulation quality of developer M2. All the bells and whistles you expect are here including visual toggles such as screen stretching, enabling scanlines, and plenty of boarder options. Even the worbbly arcade […]
There is good reason you never heard of Ichidant-R before; it has a confusing name and was only released to Japanese arcades in 1994. Thankfully, Sega and M2 have ported this forgotten arcade title to Nintendo Switch under the SEGA AGES banner. The easiest way to describe Ichidant-R is to compare it to other mini […]
At first glance, the 2D pixel art of Reventure might look like a typical puzzle platformer, possibly with some Metroidvania gameplay, but includes something entirely unique. Instead of simply trying to save a princess, the ultimate goal is to unlock all 100 different endings. This might sound tedious, or even confusing, but just about every […]

Simulation games are out of control as there is basically a simulator for everything nowadays. Whether you are cleaning up a spaceship after a demon fight, trying to fix a broken car, navigating muddy roads transporting heavy cargo, or imitating a bee, there are no shortage of simulations, extending way beyond simulating city building of […]
It doesn’t take much to see that the original Torchlight was clearly inspired by Diablo. From the character types, combat, looting, and even how items pop out of treasure chests with the same wobble sound effect, the Torchlight series was clearly aiming to put their own spin on what made Diablo great. With Torchlight II, […]
In 1993, 10 year old me purchased Secret of Mana on SNES for, I want to say for $79.99, scrounging up all the Christmas, birthday, and chore money I could find. Although it broke the bank, I consider it to be one of the best purchases I made in my lifetime. Everything about this game […]
