Lagoon was a game that I never owned growing up – but a friend of mine did, so I traded games! I remember my friend’s older brother tells me that Lagoon was awesome compared to The Legend of Zelda. At that time I was quite impressed with the statement, but soon learned that Lagoon cannot… Read More SNES Review – Lagoon
I got my first NES when I was 6 years old – my brother and I got it for Christmas. My parents bought it from one of their friend’s kids, and it came with a whole bunch of games. It was one of the best Christmases I can remember! One of the games that it… Read More NES Review – RC Pro AM
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
Hagane: The Final Conflict is one of the rarest games that I own. It’s rare because it never had a commercial release and was primarily a Blockbuster Rental Exclusive. While I never rented it, I did play it years ago on an emulator. But it wasn’t until the end of my medical school training that… Read More SNES Review – Hagane
When I turned 7, my brother and I got this game for our birthday from my Nanny and Papa. My brother and I were super stocked when we got it because it had Yoshi in it and he was in Super Mario World! Once we got the game started I became a little disappointed because… Read More NES Review – Yoshi
Back in the early late 80’s and early 90’s I was obsessed with ninjas. While the top ninjas in my book were the Ninja Turtles – anything ninja caught my attention. I don’t remember when, but I certainly played Ninja Gaiden as a kid and remember being blown away by the graphics, the cut scenes,… Read More NES Review – Ninja Gaiden

The series has obviously evolved since the first entry, but what’s so lovely about the series is that each Dragon Quest game feels like traditional Dragon Quest game – whether it’s the iconic music, turn-based RPG mechanics, or… Read More NES Review – Dragon Warrior 2
I just finished watching season 2 of the Netflix Castlevania series, which got me interested in playing more of the games in the series! Similar to other games in the series, Castlevania III takes a Belmont through Dracula’s castle, but adds a ton more to the series – making it the best iteration on the NES!… Read More NES Review – Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse
Ninja Turtles was a staple of my childhood. My brother and I would do flips over the couch in order to prep for an episode of the TV show. When the games for NES game out, I was ecstatic. I first played the original – which was fine enough but it didn’t capture the intensity… Read More NES Review – TMNT: The Arcade Game
With the recent release of the Mega Man Legacy Collection on Switch, I have been revisiting some of the old Mega Man classics! One of my personal favourites is Mega Man II! Some people believe that Mega Man II the best classic Mega Man ever made – I am one of these people, but nevertheless… Read More NES Review – Mega Man 2
