The SNES is one of the many consoles I missed in the early 90s. My family bought a PC instead of another console. Thankfully, a few of my friends had the Sega Genesis or the SNES. This was how I first played many of my favorite games. My friend Drew was the person I playedContinue reading “Best Rental Memories on the SNES”

The Best WWF Game on the SNES
WWF Royal Rumble plays like a better version of WWF Raw. The controls are better, the graphics are about the same, and the roster is about the same. The two games are very similar, but Royal Rumble is better. However, the same issues from WWF Raw are present in Royal Rumble. The characters play theContinue reading “The Best WWF Game on the SNES”
Awesome Graphics, Klunky Gameplay: WWF Raw on the SNES
WWF Raw is one of the games that I think I’ve played before this review. I might have been thinking about another WWF game on the SNES, but I thought I had played this before.

Good Graphics, Bad Gameplay, WCW SuperBrawl on the SNES
WCW SuperBrawl Wrestling isn’t a good game. It looks good, but the gameplay leaves a lot to be desired. It isn’t terrible, but there isn’t much reason to return to this game. Every wrestler feels the same, and they all look similar. They have the same move set, the same animations, and the same bodyContinue reading “Good Graphics, Bad Gameplay, WCW SuperBrawl on the SNES”

Have you ever wanted to kill poachers? Have you ever wanted to kill poachers while fighting alongside animals? Well, this is your chance! Growl is a beat’em up from Taito.

Good Gameplay and Terrible Visuals, HammerLock Wrestling on the SNES
HammerLock Wrestling is much better than I was expecting. I can see why the game might not be considered the best, but it has a lot going for it when compared to the other wrestling games on the SNES. It was surprisingly fun to play!

Best Beat’em Ups on the NES
The NES isn’t known for its beat’em ups. This genre is better known on the Genesis/Mega Drive, SNES, and arcades. However, several ports of 80s arcade games found their way to the NES. There were also a handful of beat’em ups made for the NES. The 80s was a strange time for every genre ofContinue reading “Best Beat’em Ups on the NES”
Kung-Fu Heroes is a Simple but Fun Arcade Game
Kung-Fu Heroes is an adorable game! The character sprites are big and goofy looking. It is a unique style and looks great for an early NES game. This is a port of an Arcade game called Chinese Heroes, the first game in the Super Chinese series. It is a single-screen beat’em up game. You fightContinue reading “Kung-Fu Heroes is a Simple but Fun Arcade Game”
Rush’n Attack on the NES is a Decent Arcade Port
Rush’N Attack is a port of an arcade game called Green Beret. Why did they change the name? No idea, but I think it doesn’t matter all that much. The name is kind of fun and is a play on Russian Attack. I assume that is what Konami or their American office was going for.Continue reading “Rush’n Attack on the NES is a Decent Arcade Port”
