The Simpsons games on the console aren’t very good. The Arcade game was the only one I remember being fun to play. The others were more frustrating, and I remember playing them for a bit before going back to something else. The Game Boy games are new to me. I wasn’t sure what to expectContinue reading “Bart Simpsons Escape from Camp Deadly isn’t Great | Yokoi Corner”

The Pokemon Trading Card Game is disappointing | Yokoi Corner
This does a good job of merging the mainline Pokemon games with the trading card game. I think this was a good choice because it lent some familiarity to what you’re expected to do. I remember playing the trading card game when I was younger. It came near the end of my interest in themContinue reading “The Pokemon Trading Card Game is disappointing | Yokoi Corner”
Ms. Pac-Man is a Great Port of a Classic Arcade Game | Yokoi Corner
Ms. Pac-Man is a great game to port to the Game Boy. The graphics and gameplay are solid. It is an excellent port that emulates the arcade experience quite well. This is a well-made port of Ms. Pac-Man. Well, it isn’t as good as the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive port; it is a very good one.Continue reading “Ms. Pac-Man is a Great Port of a Classic Arcade Game | Yokoi Corner”
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is not a great game | Yokoi Corner
This is a frustrating game. I could see it being good if you didn’t have anything better to do, but I couldn’t see anyone being excited to play this over and over. This is one of those games that seems to be banking on people wanting to play an Indiana Jones game. The developer wasContinue reading “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is not a great game | Yokoi Corner”
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”
Robotrek is a better than average RPG
I’m sure this has happened to many people. You revisit a video game, movie, or another form of media that you liked as a kid, and it doesn’t give you the same feeling. This happened to me when I went back to play Robotrek on the SNES. Robotrek is an RPG that Enix published. ItContinue reading “Robotrek is a better than average RPG”
Fire Emblem was worth the wait | Yokoi Corner
Some franchises took a long time to come to North America. Fire Emblem is one of those games. It wasn’t until the Game Boy Advance (GBA) that we got an official release. There were ROMs online with various stages of translation. I remember finding several ROMs that didn’t work or were poorly translated. It wasContinue reading “Fire Emblem was worth the wait | Yokoi Corner”
Advance Wars: One of the best GBA games | Yokoi Corner
The Wars series is one of Nintendo’s more interesting series of games. These are turn-based strategy games that are more cartoonish than other strategy games. 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”
Superman on Game Boy is Odd | Yokoi Corner
Have you ever wondered what would happen if the developers of Superman on the N64 made a Game Boy game? Well, it would be just as terrible, but for different reasons. Superman on the Game Boy is about what you would expect. It is a side-scrolling game with you playing a stupid version of theContinue reading “Superman on Game Boy is Odd | Yokoi Corner”
