I don't know anything about how to register on the GamerDad.com site. I just provide content, I don't worry about the nuts and bolts of the site. But I did see that you commented on one of my reviews!
I can't believe nobody's mentioned the most popular video game Mama of them all.
I reviewed Trails in the Sky a while back. Honestly I like Falcom's other popular game series, Ys, a heck of a lot more. Ys Seven on PSP is particularly good, you should try it.
Can you guess who I'll pick?
I don't have anything intelligent to say about the subject of this blog, but I will note that I can't wait to play Dragon's Crown.
Personally, I like Ristar more than Sonic.
If you like Bionic Commando and don't mind super hard games, you'll like it.
Since I've been blind in my left eye since birth, I have next to no periphrial vision. So this doesn't look like something I'd like. I just want to be able to play a game.
I could never get into the Punch Out games. Not very good at them either.
The first SNK game I played was Munch Mobile in the early 80's. But back then, I didn't realize it was from SNK. In Japan it was called Joy Ride I think.
Another early SNK game I remember was Make Trax, or Crush Roller. Like with the previous game, I didn't realize at first it was SNK. I just thought it was Midway, since they published it in the US. The NGPC version of Crush Roller is crazy!
Neo Geo arcade machines were VERY commonplace in the 90's where I live, so I was very well aware of all their games by then. There was no way I could afford a Neo Geo home console though. I didn't know anyone who did. Not even the rich kids had one!
For a short while, I favored the Neo Geo Pocket Color over the Game Boy. I still feel that the NGPC version of Card Fighters is better than Pokemon.
For most of my game reviewing 'career', SNK has been very supportive of me and I've been able to review most of their games they send to me. But I didn't get to review the Neo Geo X, although they sent me lots of press releases about it.
I'd like to get the Neo Geo X, just to have it. But it is still pretty expensive just to 'have.' And I probably already own most of the games I want from them already anyway in some form or fashion. Except Neo Mr. Do! I'd like to have that one.
And that's all I know about SNK in a nutshell. Oh, I did get to meet one of the SNK fighter character designers. Falcoon I think was what he liked to be called. He signed a Mai poster for me at E3 and gave me a Fatal Fury hat one year.
Yeah I think SNK is pretty neat. --Cary
