My favorite video game console, the SNES, came out in 1991. I remember when I got it, too. This was before strict console release dates were a thing, so I got it about 2 weeks before most stores did at a Canton, TX trade fair. I got it 20 bucks cheaper, too! And the first game I played on it was not Super Mario World, but Gradius 3!
I rented that Duck Dodgers game back when I was a SNES-playing teen. Seemed pretty fun. Nothing I'd buy, but I enjoyed the rental. I loved how when you got hit, Daffy Duck would whimper "Mother" like in the cartoon.
Interesting thing about Stray is that it's published by Annapurna. They're a movie studio but they also publish video games! Some include Donut County, and I reviewed Wattam earlier this year, which was made by the same guy who did Katamari Damacy. I met with Annapurna at PAX South, so I have a good relationship with them.
Bugsnax was made by the same people who did Octodad, huh? Man that was a funny game! Would've made a great cartoon. Another neat thing about Bugsnax is it's coming to both PS5 and PS4, so I can play it on what I already have!
I looked up NES games released in 1990 and there are SO MANY of them! Lots of ones I liked, too. Lolo 2, Kickle Cubicle, Little Nemo: The Dream Master, Mega Man 3, Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers, Mario 3, and many more!
I was too busy to watch it, but a new Ratchet and Clank game sounds cool. I probably won't get a PS5 just for that. I didn't even get a PS4 until a Black Friday sale. If you can do me a favor and let me know if there were any other games announced you think I would like, that would help me out a lot. If Sony wants me to buy a PS5 right away, they should make another Loco Roco game, or get Capcom to finally finish Mega Man Legends 3.
You know I always thought I remembered reading about a Castlevania game with a female Belmont. But when I didn't see it on the collection, I just thought it was my imagination or something.
Yeah it would be interesting to try out one of the 3-D Castlevania games. As many games as I reviewed on the N64, there was so many that I missed out on because I was a poor college student at the time and I also leaned a bit more towards the PlayStation, especially in the later part of the 90's.
A female Belmont does sound cool! Why would Konami want us to forget about that? Was the game really bad or something?
You know you fight that same version of Dracula in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a boss.
Didn't you say that after your brother beat Dracula and he turned into a bigger monster and clobbered him, that your brother stopped playing a lot of games after that?
