Kirby’s Adventure! It was a fairly late release on the NES, but it was worth the wait! My bro and I bought this game brand new when it came out in 1993. We played the heck out of it and eventually beat it. At the time, I was blown away from seeing Kirby in full… Read More NES Review – Kirby’s Adventure
I played this game when I was seven or eight years old. One of the older kids on the street had this game, and he lent it to us for a week or so. I was blown away by the openness of the game and cool it was to get out of the tank! As… Read More NES Review – Blaster Master
The Legend of Zelda – my personal favourite game series. Recently I have been completely obsorbed in Breath of the Wild (my new favourite in the series) – I have particularly enjoyed taking the game on the run! Which made me remember the first mobile game in the series – Link’s Awakening! I recently had… Read More Gameboy Review – Link’s Awakening
Konami was in its heyday during the days of the NES. Apart from Contra, the company started their fan-favorite franchise of Castlevania! It’s a game that takes the player directly into Dracula’s castle where they must journey through a number of levels, battling evil monsters, and eventually ending Draculas rein of terror for good!

Doom for PC was the first game that I ever played that gave me nightmares. I would play late into the night in my families computer room with the music ramped up. Hearing the growls up of the demons and eventually being ambushed by them scared the crap out of me – and I loved it!… Read More N64 Review – Doom 64
Six months into my collecting hobby, I was travelling around in London, Ontario for interviews for where I would be working in the following year and ended up stumbling upon upon a retro game store. I was expecting to find little – but their inventory was awesome! They had Princesses Tomato and the Salad Kingdom… Read More NES Review – Metal Storm
I remember riding on my bike to Microplay the weekend this game came out. I took an hour to get there – and to my disappointment, someone had already rented it out! The 2D gameplay with 3D graphics brought two things I loved together in one awesome game! The next weekend, I road my bike… Read More N64 Review – Mischief Makers
The original Zelda on the NES is a timeless classic. I always wished that a new one would be made with a similar feel, but new maps, dungeons, and story! A lo and behold, during my game collection adventures, I discovered the realm of game hacks. Game hacks are fan created projects that alter a… Read More NES Review – Legend of Zelda: Outlands
Gunsmoke is one of those games I had no idea existed until I played it following my collection crusade over the past year. This weekend, I sat down with my twin bro and blasted through some levels. Essentially, it’s a cool Capcom arcade shooter, but unique in that instead of taking control of a space ships blowing… Read More NES Review – Gunsmoke
