A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
things that are happening
Disney’s Tarzan by Digital Eclipse shipped with RUMBLE PAK functionality programmed into the game but shipped in a standard cartridge. It is assumed the RUMBLE cart was pulled during development due to higher cost to produce cartridges with the rumble feature. To activate this secret feature you will need a special flash cart and the […]
Instead of collecting rings like in Sonic Advance and Sonic Advance 2‘s single-pak link multiplayer mode, Sonic Advance 3 tasks the player with finding and holding a Chao. It doesn’t matter how long you hold it, you just need to be one holding it when the 3 minute timer expires to win. This is a […]
Bomberman Max 2 is the follow-up to Bomberman Tournament and the differences between those two games are jarring. Instead of the classic top-down Bomberman, Max 2 features awkward side-scrolling gameplay that just isn’t the same. The Single-Pak link mode is also very limited as there aren’t any options, only one stage, and an odd character […]
Out of all the classic Atari 2600 titles found in this quality compilation cart, 20 of them support multiplayer through the use of a single game pak. And in case you didn’t know, Ice Hockey and Fishing Derby still rock. PRO TIP – remember to hit L+UP to activate the multiplayer function before each game […]
For some reason, there is an Asteroids mini-game Single-Pak link mode found in The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Vs Jimmy Negatron on Gameboy Advance. Up to four players can compete in a lousy, never fun multi-boot mode. The music loops much too often and each match takes way too long. You might have more fun […]
2021: Moon Escape is a brand new original Gameboy game released in 2022. I was able to get a preview version of the game straight from the publisher, Incube8 Games, and wanted to test this out. This top-down action RPG is basically Zelda only instead of a sword you have a gun and instead of […]
A few days ago, I collected my 7,000th badge in the free-to-use Nintendo Badge Arcade on 3DS. Previously, I documented what happens when 5,000 and 6,000 badges are earned. The Arcade Bunny actually reveals a secret code word. Not sure what it is used for but perhaps it can be used a sequel..? Also, I […]
This week, me and Gillman try out Pretty Girls Escape, a connecting-colors puzzle game. I have been covering many games in the Pretty Girls series over the last year or so, most of them being on PS4 with easily obtainable Platinum Trophies. These are very simple, straightforward, and nowhere near as lewd as you might […]
Colin McRae Rally 2.0 is a visually and technically impressive GBA game especially when it comes to the Single-Pak multi-boot 4 player link mode. Using 3D models and realistic physics, this is a more simulation-style racing title as opposed to more acadey (never use the break) racing game. Up to four players can compete from […]
This week, Gillman and I increase our bust size by playing some Seven Pirates H, a new RPG by EastAsiaSoft ($40). It is rather ridiculous but sort of refreshing to play a traditional turn-based RPG… even if the premise is over-the-top. At least they don’t shy away from their source materials, leaning into the theme […]
