Wizards and Warriors is one of those games that is either a classic or a forgettable rental from the early 90s. I remember renting the first game when I was little and collecting the second game in high school. I had no idea that there was a Game Boy game. I was looking forward toContinue reading “The Disappointing Wizards and Warriors X | Yokoi Corner”

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”
The Best Collection of TMNT Games | Review
There is so much in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Cowabunga Collection! I have great memories of playing many of the games, and I’m glad they’re all in one place, especially with how ridiculously overpriced some of them are. Digital Eclipse put together the TMNT games from the SNES, NES, Game Boy, Sega Genesis, andContinue reading “The Best Collection of TMNT Games | Review”
Bubble Bobble 2, Should have been better | Yokoi Corner
If you like Bubble Bobble, then you will like Bubble Bobble 2. Well, it’s actually called Bubble Bobble part 2, but I will keep calling it Bubble Bobble 2. It is essentially the same game but has a story to it. Does the story matter? No, it doesn’t. However, it is nice to have itContinue reading “Bubble Bobble 2, Should have been better | Yokoi Corner”
Mega Man 2 Worlds of Power by F.X. Nine | Book Review
The Mega Man 2 Worlds of Power book might be my least favorite book in the series. Primarily because of the strange decision to make Mega Man human. It doesn’t make much sense, and the logic behind the decision is bizarre. This is a straight novelization of the game. There is no kid from theContinue reading “Mega Man 2 Worlds of Power by F.X. Nine | Book Review”
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening | Yokoi Corner
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening is one of the best retro games. I think it is probably the best game on the original Game Boy. I have many memories of playing this game while on car trips and traveling to wrestling meets. This was one of the games that I borrowed from a friendContinue reading “The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening | Yokoi Corner”
Infiltrator Worlds of Power #7 by F.X. Nine | Book Review
This was an enjoyably dumb story. I’ve never played Infiltrator before, so this was my first experience with it. I think that I want to try it out now, or at least see if I have the game. Well, I thought I wanted to play the NES game. After looking into it a bit more,Continue reading “Infiltrator Worlds of Power #7 by F.X. Nine | Book Review”
The 10 Best Game Boy Games | Yokoi Corner
I love the original Game Boy! There are a lot of great games on the Game Boy. There are so many hidden gems in the system’s library that it is hard to narrow them all down. I’m going to try to do that here. I’ll be pulling from the original Game Boy and the GameContinue reading “The 10 Best Game Boy Games | Yokoi Corner”
Final Fantasy Legend II | Yokoi Corner
Final Fantasy Legend II was one of the first Game Boy games I played. At the time, I didn’t know that it was a SaGa game. I’m pretty sure one of my friends told me about the name change later, probably when SaGa Frontier came out. This is a turn-based role-playing game that borrowed someContinue reading “Final Fantasy Legend II | Yokoi Corner”
Ninja Gaiden Worlds of Power #3 by F.X. Nine | Book Review
The Ninja Gaiden book from the Worlds of Power series is a delightful story. I had to look up how closely it follows the plot of the game, and I think the author did a great job. The story is cleaned up a bit, and there is more character development. The changes that were madeContinue reading “Ninja Gaiden Worlds of Power #3 by F.X. Nine | Book Review”
