Contra: The Alien Wars was one of the first Game Boy games that I owned. This was either a birthday or Christmas present, and I played the heck out of it! It isn’t as good as the SNES game, but if you wanted to take Contra on the road back in the early 1990s, thenContinue reading “Contra: The Alien Wars is a Great Game Boy Game”

Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge is Great!
Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge is an odd entry in the series. It was released in 1991, four years after Simon’s Quest, which is also titled Castlevania II. To try and avoid any confusion, I’ll just call this Belmont’s Revenge. It is the second Game Boy game, and it is a sequel to Castlevania: The Adventure.Continue reading “Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge is Great!”

The Best Retro Games I Played on an Emulator
Emulators were a big part of how I discovered and played retro games in the 1990s. Before I could really go anywhere outside of my hometown, I would wander from website to website downloading NES, SNES, Game Boy, and Genesis ROMs. I don’t remember all of the games I played back then, but some madeContinue reading “The Best Retro Games I Played on an Emulator”
The Great Gold, Silver, and Crystal Pokemon Games
I completely missed out on the second generation of Pokémon. The biggest reason for this was my friends. None of them were interested in the games anymore, and for the most part, we were too “grown up” for them. When the first generation games were released in North America, I was a Freshman in highContinue reading “The Great Gold, Silver, and Crystal Pokemon Games”

Revisiting One of the Worst Video Game Publishers, LJN
Most people who grew up with the NES and SNES have memories of playing LJN games. My friends and I rented quite a few of their games in the 1990s, and one of my friends owned at least two LJN games. In the 2000s, the perception of LJN and the games they published was shapedContinue reading “Revisiting One of the Worst Video Game Publishers, LJN”
