There are a few games that I really enjoy and go back to every year. Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen is one of those games. It’s my favorite game on the SNES. I know that sounds weird, especially with all the great games on the system. There is just something about it thatContinue reading “A look at the Ogre Battle and Tactics Ogre series”

Doom Game Boy Advance | Yokoi Corner
I love that Doom for the Game Boy Advance (GBA) exists! It is a well-done port that brings the game to a handheld system. However, it does come with numerous notable changes. They don’t impact the game too much, but they’re noticeable. It is still Doom, and Doom is fantastic! This port looks like theContinue reading “Doom Game Boy Advance | Yokoi Corner”
Super Dodge ball Advance is a nice remake, but lacking something | Yokoi Corner
Super Dodgeball Advance is a reimagining of the Super Dodgeball on the NES. While I like the game, it didn’t have enough added to it. However, when I played this game, I didn’t know about the NES game. So, I have two reactions to this. In 2001, I liked this game! It was great toContinue reading “Super Dodge ball Advance is a nice remake, but lacking something | Yokoi Corner”

It wasContinue reading “Fire Emblem was worth the wait | Yokoi Corner”

They also work exceptionally well on consoles and handhelds. Advance Wars was my first experience with the series. For some reason, Nintendo didn’t bring the earlier entries to North America.Continue reading “Advance Wars: One of the best GBA games | Yokoi Corner”
Balloon Kid | Yokoi Corner
Balloon Kid took my favorite part of Balloon Fight and turned it into a game. This is an expanded version of the Balloon Trip part of Balloon Fight. It seems to have dropped the parts I don’t like and expanded on the stuff I enjoyed. Balloon Fight was a clone of Joust. It was aContinue reading “Balloon Kid | Yokoi Corner”
Dr. Mario | Yokoi Corner
Dr. Mario is one of those puzzle games that I thought would be more interesting than it is. Let me back up a bit. When this game first came out, I didn’t know it was a puzzle game. I’m talking about the NES version of the game. When I was little, I didn’t have NintendoContinue reading “Dr. Mario | Yokoi Corner”
