  1. I played it a bit last night while having a few...adult beverages. The game was TERRIBLE when I first started playing it. But by the end of the night? Best game ever! Also, I noticed this morning that all of the vodka in my house is gone. Weird.
  2. The visual style is pretty cool. And the mystery stuff seems pretty intriguing. I'll keep my eye on this and maybe buy it when it comes out on Switch.
  3. Oh man, Virtua Fighter 3 was a good pick. I actually played that one for the first time just a few short years ago, and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was! Dreamcast has an amazing library of games, and Skies of Arcadia is no exception. Great pick there, as well. And this list reminded me I need to go back and finish Lost Odyssey - I really enjoyed what I played of it. Not sure why I never completed it. Not sure why NintendoLand is on this list. It is neither a hidden game, nor is it a gem. Simple mini-games for simple, short experiences that are at best fun for five minutes. Then I get bored and want to play an actual game. Bah.
  4. Yes. It has a box that is red (at least on the sides, I think?) so you can tell it apart from the OG units that came out at launch.
  5. I'm totally down with a Game Boy Classic. You hear me, Nintendo?!? Put out a classic version of one of your most important and successful pieces of hardware, you cowards!
  6. Furry suits only. No items. Final Destination. Instead of Marco, I was hoping just for the Metal Slug itself as a new playable character. Just the tank. And maybe the various soldiers from across the series can come in with guns blazing for the Final Smash or something. I mean...that sounds like a crazy enough Sakurai move, right? Which is fine, but...WTF Nintendo?! Why did you skip over Game Boy?! Switch is a portable system! Put your legacy portable games on your latest hardware, you cowards!
  7. Darn kids these days complaining about pixel art...ungrateful whelps! Back in my day, pixel art was all we had! There was no such thing as shaders or light-sourcing, or particle effects! We had never even heard the word “polygon.” All games had to be painstakingly built pixel-by-pixel, with limited color options and even when masterfully done, the image displayed would always be compromised by incredibly low-res television sets without standard color settings the developer could count on to display the game they wanted to properly. It was all we had, but we were grateful for it...! That said, this game looks good! Yeah, very Playstation One levels of detail and animation. Very Symphony of the Night-esque. I can dig it.
  8. Actually, this voice work is amazing. Probably the best ever done. You guys ever actually talk to an NBA player in real life? This is *exactly* how they speak. The game nailed it. It’s perfect.
  9. Huh. Just realized I will be traveling on Friday and won't be able to pick this game up until the following week. D'oh.
  10. The Mega Man Zero series was my favorite series of games during the era they came out. Loved them all. The ZX games on the DS were...also good...but never quite hit the same highs as the GBA games. Especially the first game, which had this incredibly difficult to understand map that nearly (or for some people, very much) broke the game. I'll get it for sure. Kind of like Chrono Trigger and Resident Evil 2, (and just about any Castlevania game) I'll buy and re-buy this over and over.
  11. Yeah this is pretty unusual. Some of the game stores around me (mostly GameStop) have been robbed or attempted robbery (at gun point) but all the criminals were after was cash. Not games.
  12. This single game is gonna outsell both the Vita and the Wii U. (individually, anyway)
  13. That Joker looks like a Create-A-Character from a WWE game or something. Terrible. The T-800 looks dope, though. Spawn is meh. Everyone else seems fine.
  14. Why can't any of these compilations have Sonic the Hedgehog 3? It was included in the Sonic Mega Collection back in the day on PS2/Xbox/Gamecube.
  15. I guess I am with everyone else here, and assumed they were already with Sony. Shows what I know! ....which is NOTHING!!!
  16. I have my Genesis hooked up to my home office TV. Still play some Castle of Illusion, Rocket Knight, Splatterhouse 2/3, Castlevania Bloodlines and Virtua Racing.
  17. OH GOD YES SHOOT IT DIRECTLY INTO MY VEINS!!! My buddies and I played the crap out of the OG game on PC/NES and had a blast during every second of it. Looking forward to this for sure. I wonder if it will also be available physically in NA? Or just digital only. Either way, I’m in Day One...unless early reviews or something show it’s a dumpster fire. But I’ve got a good feeling about it.
