Ring Rage is pretty terrible. It looks horrible, and the gameplay isn’t that good. This caused me to look a little deeper. The Game Boy game is an awful port of an arcade game released in 1992 by Taito. There were a lot of changes made to the game. I have no idea if theContinue reading “Ring Rage Looks Terrible on the Game Boy”

WWF Warzone on the Game Boy is Awful
I’m a little surprised that a Game Boy port of WWF Warzone exists. I’m not expecting it to be close to the PS1 and N64 versions of the game. Hopefully, it will be an entertaining experience. This game was released in 1998, which was very late in the Game Boy’s life. This means the developersContinue reading “WWF Warzone on the Game Boy is Awful”
WWF King of the Ring on Game Boy
WWF King of the Ring was ported to the Game Boy, and it is a very rough game. I’m one of the few people who likes the NES game, and the Game Boy port is not as good. The controls aren’t as good, and the graphics are hit-and-miss. This version of the game has fewerContinue reading “WWF King of the Ring on Game Boy”
WWF Superstars 2 is an Disappointing Game Boy Game
WWF Superstars 2 is a Game Boy exclusive released in 1992 by LJN. Yes, I know that having the LJN logo on it means the game might be terrible, but I will keep an open mind. Not everything you hear or read on the internet is true, and I have stumbled across a few goodContinue reading “WWF Superstars 2 is an Disappointing Game Boy Game”
WWF Superstars is an Average Game Boy Game
WWF Superstars was released by LJN in 1991. It is a Game Boy exclusive and one of the few wrestling games available on the handheld. I had never played this game before, and it is what I was expecting from a handheld wrestling game from 1991. TLDR: This is a decent handheld wrestling game. NarrativeContinue reading “WWF Superstars is an Average Game Boy Game”
WCW Main Event on the Game Boy is Fun
There are a few wrestling games on the Game Boy. Some are exclusive to the handheld, and others are inferior ports of console games. WCW Main Event is one of the exclusives. I’ve never played this game before, so I don’t have any idea what I’m getting into here. My first impressions of the gameContinue reading “WCW Main Event on the Game Boy is Fun”
Amazing to Forgotten, Konami’s Abandoned Hockey Series
Konami is a bizarre company. In the late 1980s and throughout the 1990s, it created many amazing and iconic games. Then, in the late 1990s, the company started to fall off as the cost of developing games rose, and the company focused on lower-cost ways of making money. Blades of Steel is one of theContinue reading “Amazing to Forgotten, Konami’s Abandoned Hockey Series”
A Review of Arcade Classic vol. 4 | Defender and Joust
It has been a while since I looked at a Game Boy game. I left off on the Arcade Classics collections. There are four of them, and the last one is probably the worst. This collection has Joust and Defender on it. They were classic arcade games from the early 80s and were the productsContinue reading “A Review of Arcade Classic vol. 4 | Defender and Joust”
Monsters in the Grass: A First Generation Pokemon Retrospective
Pokemon is one of those franchises that became a cultural phenomenon for a few years. It came to North America at just the right time when anime was getting popular, RPGs were becoming extremely popular, and even trading card games (TCG) were catching on. Pokemon had everything needed to become a media empire. I gotContinue reading “Monsters in the Grass: A First Generation Pokemon Retrospective”
Two Great Namco Shooters in on Cartridge
Arcade Classic number 3 comes with Galaga and Galaxian. I wonder why Galpus is left off of the cartridge. Anyway, this is the one that I’m looking forward to! Galaga is one of my favorite shooters. It is one of the few video games from the 80s that I remember playing. This version of GalagaContinue reading “Two Great Namco Shooters in on Cartridge”
