Spring Training Reviews


Posted on 04/24/2022 at 04:12 PM | Filed Under Blogs

The Taito Milestones collection was lacking. Where were Space Invaders, Bubble Bobble, Arkanoid? What about classics like Space Dungeon, Zoo Keeper, Rastan, Jungle Hunt?

I've heard that Bandai Namco is pretty much abandoning Ms. Pac-Man because of all the legal hoops they have to jump through with ATGames. That sucks. I'd have also liked to see Jr. Pac-Man on a collection. 


 

Episode 221: We Don't Talk About SOPFFO


Posted on 04/22/2022 at 07:59 PM | Filed Under Feature

Opening Match: Mario is too busy getting busy with Peach and possibly Pauline, so he literally phones it in. As in, he phones the ring and tells them to declare him the winner. Which they do. Chrono Cross resigns itself to a consolation prize of a night for one at the Desert Sands Motel in Stanfield, Arizona, where it has only the company of a 1974 issue of Playboy and the smell of the Stanfield stockyards. 

 

Closing Match: Ched Quest is doing well, but Tetris gets a Tetris. The resulting block explosion squashes Chex Quest into the ceiling. Chex Quest sounds surprisingly like Doomguy when he dies.

Mortal Kombat mania was huge. I was even more hyped for MK2 (Nothing.... NOTHING can prepare you.) Especially when I saw the SNES version in a playable demo. 

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past Review

I originally played TP on GameCube, which is the canon version, judging by the fact that the Wii U version is based on the GC version. Motion controls are why I didn't finish Skyward Sword on Wii. I finished it on Switch using the Pro Controller.

Single greatest game ever made at the time of its release. Nothing made in the 16-bit era on any platform even came close. It's still part of my "holy trinity" of Zelda games, the other two being Breath of the Wild and Twilight Princess. 

Unboxed the Switch Finally

I love my Switch. I have my launch year model. I own more games for Switch than any other platform I've ever had.

I recently learned that there is a Game Boy port as well. And watching it on YouTube, it's pretty good.

Episode 219: We're Comin' At Ya!

Cage Match:

Chrono Cross takes Dead Space in a somewhat difficult match.

Area 51 gets into the ring, sees Mario, and is like, "OH, COME ON!" before storming out of the ring in a huff.

You can play almost every Atari 2600 game ever made in your browser, and download ROMs for emulation. There are also ROMs for the 5200, 7800, 8-bit, and ST, but those don't have browser emulation.

Elevator Action Review

Compared to almost every Atari-era arcade conversion, the NES version of Elevator Action is a masterpiece. Even on the NES, Elevator Action is one of the better conversions, especially when even Donkey Kong had over 25 percent of the game cut out on the NES.
