Genesis Review – Powers Rangers: The Movie
Power Rangers: The Movie was a big deal for me when it came out. At the time I was just finishing up Grade 6, and was obsessed with the show – especially the Green Ranger arc! To see the Rangers on the big screen was awesome, but I never got around to playing the Genesis… Read More Genesis Review – Powers Rangers: The Movie
SNES Review – Super Castlevania IV
I remember in the early 90s, I picked up a video game magazine, and on the front of it was an advertisement for Super Castlevania IV! The article was so hyped for the game, calling the graphics “hyper-realistic” and that you would “sometimes just want to pause to look at the scenery.” While the game… Read More SNES Review – Super Castlevania IV
NES Review – Super Mario Bros 2
Super Mario Bros 2 was a game I rented early in my NES days. It was quite different from its predecessor – and this was something my brother and I were not prepared for!

N64 Review – Pokemon Puzzle League
Pokemon was such a hit in the 90’s that the franchise spawned numerous side-projects such as Pokemon Pinball, a full-blown TV show, and Pokemon Stadium! One that I initially missed while growing up was Pokemon Puzzle League – one that has been a pleasant surprise! In terms of gameplay – this game is a puzzle… Read More N64 Review – Pokemon Puzzle League
SNES Review – Earthbound
This is a very special game for me. I remember when this game came out – I didn’t buy it right away. A friend of mine from camp told me how was awesome it was – how you could stay in hotels, order pizzas, and how some of the enemies were actually vomit! The game… Read More SNES Review – Earthbound
