Natsume Championship Wrestling (NCW) is the game I was most looking forward to when I started playing the SNES wrestling games. It looks good, but I didn’t enjoy playing it. The controls took a long time to get used to. The game has a big roster, but those wrestlers don’t feel special.

WWF Super WrestleMania on the SNES is Disappointing
WWF Super WrestleMania was the first wrestling game published by LJN on the SNES. It isn’t good, but it does show you the direction these games were going in.

Clue on the SNES isn’t that great of a game. Like many board games made into video games, there wasn’t much added to it. It is just the game.

Breath of Fire is one of the Best JRPGs on the SNES
The Breath of Fire series is one of the best retro RPG series. It seems to have been abandoned by Capcom in favor of other series. It feels like what Konami does with their franchises. This is a JRPG that is closer to the Phantasy Star series in terms of gameplay and how the plotContinue reading “Breath of Fire is one of the Best JRPGs on the SNES”
