BurgerTime is one of the few NES games that I remember playing with my friend Eric. He had a bizarre collection of games, but they were all fun to play. Besides BurgerTime, he owned T&C Surf Designs, Roger Rabbit, Super Spike Volley Ball, Mario/Duck Hunt, and I think he had Super Mario 3. Playing withContinue reading “BurgerTime is Great!

A Good NES Port of a Great Arcade Game
Do you remember that time that Mario tried his hand at construction? Well, it was back in 1984, and it was in the game Wrecking Crew. I can only assume that Mario was trying to find himself after his brief attempt at being a carpenter and then trying plumbing. This was before he pretended toContinue reading “A Good NES Port of a Great Arcade Game”
Paperboy, A Good but Not Great NES Game
I don’t remember if I’ve written about Paperboy, and since I can’t find a post that I made about the NES game, that’s where I’ll start. I have played several versions of this game before, and I’ve gone over the N64 version. This is one of those games that I found myself wanting to like.Continue reading “Paperboy, A Good but Not Great NES Game”
Which is better? Dragon Quest II or DQ IV
Dragon Quest II and Dragon Quest IV have quite a few similarities. Both are high fantasy games, have party systems, and are fun in their own way. There were a lot of improvements made between the second and the fourth games. Dragon Quest II improved on the first game in the series quite a bit.Continue reading “Which is better?

Which is better? Dragon Quest III vs Phantasy Star II
Dragon Quest III and Phantasy Star II are turn-based RPGs with good stories and gameplay. They have a lot of differences between them, which makes for a fun comparison. Having a science fiction RPG and a high fantasy RPG makes things more interesting for me when I write these. Phantasy Star II is a gameContinue reading “Which is better?

Which is better? Final Fantasy vs Dragon Quest III
Dragon Quest III and Final Fantasy are both high fantasy RPGs. They have a lot of similarities and only a handful of differences. This Dragon Quest game feels like it is closer to what the first Final Fantasy game was doing. Dragon Quest III is still a fairly new game to me. I played itContinue reading “Which is better?

Adventure Island 3 is Better than the Second Game
Adventure Island 3 is the last game in the series that I’m going to be covering. It was released in 1992 in Japan and North America, and Europe got the game on the Game Boy. For some reason, it was released as Adventure Island II on the Game Boy. Like any good series of media,Continue reading “Adventure Island 3 is Better than the Second Game”

Donkey Kong 3, One of My Favorite Shoot’em Ups
Donkey Kong 3 is a strange single-screen shooter that I’ve written about a few times, but never reviewed. I’m a little surprised by this because I really like the game. It is a unique shooter that has some platforming mechanics to it. Like many of these early NES games, this was based on the arcadeContinue reading “Donkey Kong 3, One of My Favorite Shoot’em Ups”
