The more games that I play, the more I realize how many games I missed out on. While I still think Pro Wrestling is the best wrestling game on the NES, Tecmo World Wrestling is amazing! The game has a lot going on, and it feels like a game you would expect to see onContinue reading “Tecmo World Wrestling is Better than I was Expecting”

Tag Team MUSCLE is the Worst NES Wrestling Game
Tag Team Match: M.U.S.C.L.E. is one of those NES games you might have rented on a Friday night and given up on it by Saturday morning. You would watch some cartoons, play the game for ten minutes, and then go outside to find a stick to play with. I’m sure many people have had thisContinue reading “Tag Team MUSCLE is the Worst NES Wrestling Game”
The Best Wrestling Game on the NES
Pro Wrestling is the best wrestling game on the NES. It has the best roster of wrestlers, and in many ways, it is ahead of the other wrestling games. The game isn’t saddled with a licensed property, like WWF or WCW, so it could be its own thing. However, it was given a generic nameContinue reading “The Best Wrestling Game on the NES”
Heavy Barrel, A Shoot’em Up Hidden Gem
Run and Gun shooters are a somewhat forgotten subgenre of shooters. You don’t see too many modern games emulating this style of gameplay. When I think of this group of games, I think about Commando and Contra. Heavy Barrel is one of the games that I didn’t know about until I started collecting video games.Continue reading “Heavy Barrel, A Shoot’em Up Hidden Gem”
WWF Wrestlemania on the NES is a Classic, but Not Great
WWF Wrestlemania is the first professional wrestling game that I remember playing. Is it as good as I remember it being? No, it isn’t, but I think it is a product of its time. The game is more like an arcade beat’em up or a prototype for a fighting game. You have a limited moveContinue reading “WWF Wrestlemania on the NES is a Classic, but Not Great”
Stinger One of the Best NES Shoot’em Ups
Remember when Konami made games that you wanted to play? I know it has been a while and the Konami of today seems to not care about video games. However, in the 80s, 90s, and 2000s they made some great games! They also made Bayou Bill, but whatever. Stinger is one of the many greatContinue reading “Stinger One of the Best NES Shoot’em Ups”
Best Games on the NES
The Nintendo Entertainment System has a decent size library. Between 700 and 800 games were released for the console, depending on what you want to include. There were several unlicensed games made for the NES and some region-specific games. I wouldn’t say I like all of the games, and I’m sure no one likes everyContinue reading “Best Games on the NES”
Best Games I played in 2022
I’ve played several games this year. Many of them have been either retro or indie games. I’ve found that I’ve been shying away from the AAA games that don’t appeal to me or seem to be overpriced. I’ve decided to make a short list of the games that I think are the best games thatContinue reading “Best Games I played in 2022”
Koei’s NES Games Retrospective
Koei is a fascinating company! Established in 1978, it made many fantastic and strange games. At least weird for me as I only know them for their historical simulation and Dynasty Warriors games. When I look at their library now, I see the franchises that sparked my interest in history and storytelling. I remember findingContinue reading “Koei’s NES Games Retrospective”
The Best Worlds of Power book | Bionic Commando | Book Review
This was the best book in the Worlds of Power series. Bionic Commando is an entertaining story that tries to cram the video game into it. It also added many abilities to the bionic arm, making the story more interesting.ng There is some weird stuff that I can only describe as video game tropes inContinue reading “The Best Worlds of Power book | Bionic Commando | Book Review”
