A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Awesome Pea 3 is the final, single-screen precision platformer that costs $5. While it has the most production values out of the trilogy, the wildly swinging difficulty factor will have you exclaiming four letter words you didn’t know existed. I couldn’t stream my play time of Awesome Pea 3 because it would have been banned […]
Ratalaika Games has been re-releasing old games to the pleasure of retro fans with the latest being the forgotten third game in the Shockman series. Originally released exclusively in Japan for the PC Engine CD, Cyber Citizen Shockman 3: A Princess from Another World is another side scrolling action platformer akin to the previous games […]
Nintendo bundled the original GBA Wireless Adapter with Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green in the mid-2000s. Surprisingly, they went through the hassle of developing a wireless adapter for the Gameboy Micro but was only available to purchase through Nintendo’s website at the time.
Sonic The Hedgehog: Pocket Adventure (1999) features two multiplayer modes through a link cable. First is a simple race to the finish whereas the other tasks the player with collecting a certain amount of rings before the other player. Unfortunately, the single player levels are reused for the multiplayer mode and only the stages that […]
Maximum Entertainment and Abiding Bridge released Sclash, an easy to play but difficult to master 2D samurai 1-v-1 fighting game. The gimmick revolves around tension and split-second decision making as each bout is loaded with drama as death comes from a single strike. Visually, the hand-drawn Japanese calligraphy art-style is impressive and carries weight. Instead […]
Dakar 2: The World’s Ultimate Rally (2003) might be a forgettable, niche racing game on Nintendo Gamecube but it packs a special GBA connectivity feature. By playing through the Gamecube game, players are rewarded with downloadable Time Trial tracks for their GBAs. Essentially, the Gameboy Advance version is a demake of the 3D original! Amazing!
Originally released on Dreamcast, Rainbow Cotton is now easily accessible on all modern platforms thanks to ININ and Success. As a point of reference, Panorama Cotton, Cotton 100%, Cotton Fantasy: Superlative Night Dreams, and Cotton Reboot have all been re-released over the last couple years. Personally, I welcome the revival of this cult franchise. To […]
Bomb Cat, published by RedDeer Games on Switch, is a Suika Game clone but with two differences. The first difference comes from the visual theme. Instead of dropping circle shaped fruit into a well, the player instead drops circle cats of different colors. However, gameplay remains exactly the same. If two of the same shaped […]
This week, me and Gillman play through the opening of Front Mission 1st Remake because he bought it on a Steam sale a while back and didn’t have a chance to play it. Personally, I’ve had the Front Mission remakes on my Wishlists for a while and will eventually buy them someday when on sale […]
I’ve always wanted to link both the SNK and Capcom Version of Card Fighters’ Clash to Match of the Millennium on Neogeo Pocket Color. Unfortunately, I was rewarded with practically nothing for my efforts. However, perhaps I need to get further in the Card Fighter games to unlock more in MotM…
