A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Puzzle Link 2 is a more-of-the-same sequel only with a slightly more appealing visual style. But both Puzzle Link tiles on Neogeo Pocket Color are quality additions to the handheld’s library and the 2-player link cable mode is fun, entertaining, and highly approachable.
Yeo, the small team that also released the cult favorite The Friends of Ringo Ishikawa and Arrest of a Stone Buddha, have ported Fading Afternoon to Switch, a beautifully animated 2D noir crime simulation-lite. It is easy to see the Yakuza/Like A Dragon and River City influences but easily stands apart with its obscure gameplay […]
Medal of Honor: Rising Sun on Nintendo’s Gamecube can link with Medal of Honor: Infiltrator on Gameboy Advance. When connected, player’s get a helpful map that depicts the location of helpful items and enemy positioning.
Neogeo Cup 98 PLUS is the colorized version of the original Neogeo Pocket game and it features a 2-player head-to-head link cable mode. This is the only soccer game for the Neogeo Pocket Color, but not the only sports game.
Developed by a small European team, Mouse & Crane is a cooperative puzzle adventure targeting 4–7-year-old players. It is one of those games that a parent can play with their youngster to work together to complete simple tasks; a great starter game especially on Switch. With each player holding a single JoyCon, one player needs […]
It is true. Roxy Raccoon’s Pinball Party is a pinball game. However, this title is shortchanging this low-cost digital release. Instead, it almost plays more like a Mario Party mini game compilation because there are so many other things to do other than playing pinball. What this ten-dollar digital download lacks in polish, it overcorrects […]
Kururin Squash is the Gamecube sequel to the two original GBA games and features a Gamecube-to-GBA link feature. To access this GBA link mode, players must first grind the single player campaign to earn 30k gold coins to purchase the link option. Up to four players can compete once unlocked.
Shinyuden and Ratalaika Games deserve credit and recognition as they have been on a hot streak of re-releasing forgotten retro games on modern consoles. Available for the first time in the West, their latest release is another Masaya classic called Bike Daisuki! Hashiriya Kon, better known as Rider’s Spirits, a 16-bit Super Famicom original. As […]
Playing as a mask wearing sentient robot, the narrative begins innocently. While casually venturing through some ancient ruins, a legendary sword claims you as its wielder, tasking you with being the savior of the land. Astor: Blade of the Monolith doesn’t waste any time and almost immediately throws the player into the quest, which is […]
Baseball Stars Color is a quality little baseball title for the Neogeo Pocket Color. It is actually made better when playing against another human in the 2-player link cable mode as the AI can be unfair at times.
