Exclusive to Japan, this simple block placing puzzle game is unexpectedly entertaining. Using a set number of blocks, each puzzle must be solved before your opponent to win. Shooting blocks across an Excel spreadsheet sounds like a horrible idea but I promise it is way more fun than it sounds. This is Single-Pak link!
This week, me and Gillman play through the opening moments of Blind Fate, a new 2.5D action adventure title. Seasoned indie-developers Troglobytes Games, and global publishing house 101XP, are thrilled to announce the official release of Blind Fate: Edo No Yami, the sci-fi action-adventure game based in a world now ruled by bloodthirsty and ruthless […]
For this week’s stream, me and Gillman play through the opening moments of Priest Simulator. This pre-release stream had us scratching our heads as this is one weird, documentary style game. Seriously, it is so odd that we were at a lost for words. If you are watching this, this game is now available on […]
This week, me and Gillman try out the newly released demo version of Turbo Kid, a BMX Metroid-style game based on the movie. In Turbo Kid, you take on the role of The Kid, a lone warrior on a quest to cross the Wasteland in a retro-style exploration adventure with the outrageously funny gore that […]
Sequel to Kuru Kuru Kururin, Kururin Paradise is a Japan-exclusive GBA title that has one of the best Single-Pak linking multiplayer experiences on Nintendo’s handheld.

In 1990, Balloon Kid released on the American Gameboy, sequel to Balloon Fight (NES/Arcade). A decade later, Japan received an exclusive enhanced edition of Balloon Kid called Balloon Fight GB for Gameboy Color in 2000. This handheld sequel features a 2-player link cable VS Mode. Unlike the original release, players now have the ability to […]
Bomberman Quest’s 2-player link cable multiplayer mode has some restrictions – it is 1v1 only due to the hardware limitations, and players must unlock items in the single player campaign for use in the multiplayer mode. However, for a 2 player top-down deathmatch, it isn’t so bad considering.
Tennis, along with Baseball and Golf, released as launch window titles for the original Gameboy in 1989. Out of the generically named Nintendo sports title, Tennis, in my opinion, is the best. I provide 2 reasons in my video why 1989 Gameboy Tennis is great and still worth your time today, specially when it comes […]
