Gaia Gensouki 742 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 The Great Waldo Search is done. Why is this so much easier than the other game? I can't get past the subway in Where's Waldo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Gensouki 742 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Where's Waldo is done on normal. I only had a few seconds left. This game is somehow much more difficult than I had imagined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nerdynebraskan 232 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Friday the 13th is done. And since that was my sloppiest run in YEARS, I will take that as my cue to go to bed. See y'all in the morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_wizard_666 995 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Hey @scaryice, you may need to double check the numbers...Nightshade was a 9 last year when I beat it, but it's listed as a 10 now...that can't be right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Gensouki 742 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Puss 'N Boots is done. What a dull and painfully mediocre game with fairly bad controls. Even the levels and enemies didn't make any sense. Why was I suddenly fighting against a flying saucer or some kind of giant demon thing? Anyway, at least another first time completion.

Gaia Gensouki 742 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Fisher Price: Firehouse Rescue and Fisher-Price: Perfect Fit are done. I did the former on level 4 (highest difficulty setting, I guess) and the latter on 3, once alone and once against a CPU. Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PII 1,237 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 5 hours ago, Gaia Gensouki said: I feel like some people online overstate how bad this game is. For an early NES game it was quite decent, imho. Only a little bit repetitive in the long run and the format isn't really ideal for highscore hunting. It's a fun little game alright. The cart sold well and everyone I knew as a kid liked it. It's really too bad we didn't get an even more RPG-like sequel with a huge over-world of Ocean to explore. I would be all over that game if it came out today. It's certainly not like there was a lack of source material. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I feel like the closest NES game regarding your idea might have been Pirates or maybe Uncharted Waters? But still not quite the same. Anyway, Castlevania is done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually right. Let me explain: The points are based on the last 5 years, so the 2017 data was replaced with the 2022 data. And Nightshade was beaten 29 spots higher in 2017 vs 2022, so it ended up losing a bit of ground - falling from 589th to 598th overall. The final 9 point game is #595, so it was barely was a 9 last year, and now just barely fell into the 10s this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaia Gensouki 742 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Just finished Felix the Cat. I've already heard good things about this game and it mostly lives up to its good reputation. It controls well, there are plenty of upgrades and levels. Also, the difficulty is rather low so it makes for a chill playthrough and is suitable for children etc. On top of that the graphics are pretty decent and the tunes are nice to listen to. If I had to criticize anything, then it would be the bosses which were mostly the same. It felt like there were only 2 different patterns for the eight regular bosses. Luckily the final boss was a bit different and slightly more challenging. Other than that it's a pleasant game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaMan52 1,954 Member · Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) Beat Mega Man 3, my favorite game in the series (along with Mega Man 5). It is certainly the one I've played the most. In fact, I still have my original copy that I've had since 1994. Also, I recommend checking out Mega Man 3 Improvement if you haven't. It restores a lot of things that were cut from the game. I did a full playthrough of Improvement in 2020 for Mega Man 3's 30th Anniversary. Edited January 1 by MegaMan52 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
