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”
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”
Yoshi’s Cookie is too easy, but fun | Yokoi Corner
Yoshi’s Cookie is an easy game, maybe too easy. It works well for the Game Boy, where you are trying to waste some time, but it would be disappointing on a console. I have played it on the NES and thought it was fine. Not full price fine, but acceptable as a used game IContinue reading “Yoshi’s Cookie is too easy, but fun | Yokoi Corner”
Yoshi is fun but lacks a lot | Yokoi Corner
Yoshi is an interesting puzzle game. It is a match-two game that uses enemies from the Mario Bros games as its game pieces. It is a nice take on the falling block genre of games. This isn’t as good as Tetris, Dr. Mario, or even Yoshi’s Cookie. However, Yoshi is a fun little game thatContinue reading “Yoshi is fun but lacks a lot | Yokoi Corner”
The Disappointing Wizards and Warriors X | Yokoi Corner
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”
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”
