A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
things that are happening
Yes, this is a real game and is made by the same guy who made Soda Drinker Pro, another really obscure first person soda drinking game. For reference, here is my Soda Drinker Pro (Xbox One version) review from 2016. Me and Gillman play through the opening week to see what exactly is happening in […]
There are several playable games in Nintendo’s fourth Game & Watch compilation but two are multiplayer compatible through Single-Pak link – Donkey Kong 3 and Boxing. DK3 pits two players in a tug-of-war style match by shooting water bubbles at each other, trying to push a fireball and a Boo to the other side. The […]
DK King of Swing has a Single-Pak link mode that acts has a quick demo to the main game. The goal is to reach the top of each of the three stages before your opponents. Unfortunately, the AI bot controlled Donkey Kongs play perfect matches every time, giving the player zero chance of beating them. […]
Mario Kart: Super Circuit is pretty much as good as it is going to get in terms of a multiplayer racing game on Gameboy Advance using only one cartridge. Up to four players, each controlling a palette swapped Yoshi, can compete in four tracks which are all call backs to the SNES original. This video […]
Originally debuting in 2007, Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space Remastered has been upgraded over the original. This 5 chapter batch of episodic content has been enhanced with updated visuals, re-encoded audio, better lighting and more. Here in our short play, we simply wanted to demonstrate the gameplay and briefly talk about the series […]
Konami’s handheld Gameboy Advance version of Silent Scope has a decent but short lived Single-Pak link offering. Instead of murdering bad guys, you instead murder balloons using one copy of the game for up to four players. This video is an overview of this extra mode.
This week, Gillman and I play a bit of FiberTales: DummyKart, a Mario Kart-type racer that has a Yoshi’s Woolly World visual theme and objective based races. It is a little different because each competition isn’t necessarily a race to the finish. Also, it only costs $5. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1717160/FiberTales_DummyKart/
F-Zero Maximum Velocity was one of the handful of Gameboy Advance games that launched with the system in 2001. For the time, it was a quality racer and was one of the first games to feature a Single-Pak link mode for up to four players playing from one copy of the game. This video demonstrates […]
Most Mario titles on Nintendo’s Gameboy Advance includes Mario Bros. Battle, a multiplayer offering that takes advantage of the GBA’s multi-boot capabilities. Using only one cartridge, players can compete in class Mario Bros. but with newly implemented features. This video explains this excellent multiplayer mode.
The GBA Roll Cage accessory by Mad Catz is probably the stupidest gaming accessory of all time. Looking like braces for your teeth, this thing is supposed to protect your GBA if you accidentally drop it. Thing is, the added weight and size makes it way more difficult to hold the system, which means you’ll […]
