Sumez | 3,040 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 It isn't, for some reason. But Bomberman 93 is sort of that game but better... And hell a lot harder. 94 feels more like a major shift in design, with a bigger focus on stage gimmicks and special enemies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, If I start collecting hu-cards, I'll put the original Bomberman on my list. I definitely would've overlooked it by assuming it's the same as the NES port. -CasualCart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3quit4s | 4,157 Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Hogwarts Legacy. Actually played through the entire main mission and did a ton of side quests. Not gonna 100% it because I never do that but really enjoyed the game and did a lot more than I would have with another game. Really great game and recommend it to anyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdrunner | 426 Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. I just got to 100% after chipping away at 80-something stages over several months. Not doing Mirror Mode, at least not now. Need a break! Speaking of, I hate how the game nags you with "Why don't you take a break?" after you've been playing for roughly 30 minutes. That was sometimes just one stage, especially on the "K" levels. And then there's stage 5-8, "Muncher Marathon", which will forever haunt me with nightmare fuel. Google it only if you're not afraid of being chased by large swarms of spiders. Seriously, WHAT is this level doing in a game rated "E" for Everyone? One other thought: I miss the Kremlings. The Tikis just aren't nearly as interesting. Not sure why the change was made at all. Anyway, all gripes aside, this is a really well-made platformer. It was definitely well worth the playthrough. Need to finish Tropical Freeze someday as well! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Pac | 7,683 Graphics Team · Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Today I managed to roll the score in Deadly Duck [Atari 2600]! This feels like one of my personal greatest gaming accomplishments (right up there with rolling the score in Turmoil), because things can go south really fast in this game, and it took a fair bit of endurance to keep at it without any breaks for 1 1/2 hours straight. -CasualCart 1 minute ago, CasualCart said: Deadly Duck - 114,630 [1/b] I've spent the last week slowly improving at this game, and today I finally broke 100k to roll the score! It took 1 1/2 hours of uninterrupted brick-dodging and crab-shooting to make it happen (no pausing in Atari games), but it was worth it! -CasualCart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailorScoutMandy | 782 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Fire emblem engage. It's the 3ds style of fire ember, not.over kill with social life stuff like three houses had. You should play it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackVega | 583 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Just beat SNK Heroines. This is the first time I've ever beaten any modern game in literal ages. The controls were simplified here and it was surprisingly fun and I'd recommend it for fighting game newbies and beginners 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiztor | 858 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge this game is (was?) a free* download only title on the Wii-U. it requires amiibo to play, so free is relative here. it's a puzzle game like the rest of the Mario vs Donkey Kong series. simple puzzles that end up with quite a bit of complexity by the end. i enjoyed this game as a rebound game- great to play in pieces around more enthralling games. had to borrow the final amiibo (Rosalina) from a friend to get the last few stars and unlock the final stage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the same reason the River Styx and Underworld are in Super Paper Mario, I guess. Or Mimi snapping her neck and transforming into a giant spider with gears in her head.

MegaMan52 | 2,488 Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 (edited) I played a short game this time, due to the fact that I've been busy. I decided to beat the prototype of the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive version of Aladdin included in Disney Classics Games Collection for Switch. I believe it is included in the original version of the collection, but I played it on the expanded version that includes The Jungle Book. Once you've beaten it, the game just goes back to the title screen. Still fun and interesting. Edited February 22, 2023 by MegaMan52 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I messed around with the wii version for a bit. It was pretty good, but really lacked the flavor of the SNES ones. One thing I wasn't a big fan of was how floaty the platforming felt in comparison to the snes titles. It almost felt like Rayman, which while not a bad thing feels like a totally different game. Still I enjoyed what I have played for the most part. A couple other games currently have my attention so I may return to it at some point for a proper playthough.

MegaMan52 | 2,488 Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 (edited) Beat Mega Man: The Power Battle in Mega Man Battle & Fighters for Neo Geo Pocket Color (played on Switch). I played the game using all three characters: Mega Man in the Mega Man 1-2 course, Protoman in the Mega Man 3-6 course, and Bass in the Mega Man 7 course. The Neo Geo Pocket Color version is sure missing a lot of the music from the Arcade version (Cutman's music is used a lot), but I really like the chiptune versions of the music that is included (especially Mega Man's theme). The graphics took a big hit, but the backgrounds look reasonably good. Gameplay is pretty much the same as the Arcade version. Even though the Arcade version is better, I actually still kind of like this version. Edited March 3, 2023 by MegaMan52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webhead123 | 693 Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Finished Yoku's Island Express. Despite not being very good at them, I'm quite a fan of pinball and video games that use pinball mechanics. Yoku was a nice addition to the genre, with a hint of Metroidvania and some other neat features. Colorful art style, pleasant music. A pretty nice game all around. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ankos | 490 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I finally beat this (not so good) Megaman clone by Sintax. The Chinese name is 新疯狂啊给-泡泡堂, but on old copyright databases its English name is listed as Super Bombmen. They just reskinned an earlier (much rarer) game they made called Zook Hero 3 to make this one. To my knowledge gameplay is unchanged between the two, but I don't have Zook Hero 3, so I cannot 100% confirm that. The other Zook Hero games were made by a different company called Vast Fame, who is very popular among Westerners who like old Taiwanese games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aguy | 777 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I beat Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies last night. I liked it, but not as much as DQ VIII (which I beat last month). It's lacking a main villain and makes a lot of the game feel a little aimless. DQ games do this a lot, where most of the game is built around smaller vignettes, but the stakes felt much lower in this one. The final boss's name is first mentioned about 75% into the game and you meet him for the first time about 2 hours before the credits. It only took 37 hours, which is pretty short. This one has no set roster, you create your own team like DQ III or FF I. I modeled my team after specific characters that required specific weapon choices that probably took an extra 5 hours of grinding, so it could have been even shorter. I'd like to play it again someday on an emulator so I can upscale the graphics and mod in the orchestral OST. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drxandy | 3,258 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Kinda beat most of forza horizon 5, have all the cars in the regular store, 638? Of 689? Photos, mostly done with hot wheels content, and mostly all events in both but not all 3 starred so not really beat all either way. The update with rally comes at the end of the month . Same with horizon 4, not perfect but most events completed as well as both expansions, don't have all the cars yet though. Still enjoying both though! Beat hi fi rush on normal, pretty fun rhythm platformer from bethesda, digging the music - I was surprised with nine inch nails(couple songs!) and the joy formidable songs being background in levels, started back at it on easy and am at level 5 now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abelardo | 155 Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Finished Leisure Suit Larry - Wet Dreams Don’t Dry on the Switch, I hadn't played any Larry game since the 90s and honestly I think they did a pretty good job with this one, the humor is good (including lots of references to the original LSL game), the puzzles were fun and (with a few exceptions) not overly difficult to figure out. Right now both Switch games are on sale so it's a good time to pick them up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
