Sorry
It’s been a while since my last update, I plan to get back on the NES train within the next few days. The videos will be better (hopefully) and the reviews will be more indepth.
So get ready, a storm is coming, can you feel it?!
These are the first impressions of someone experiencing the Nintendo Entertainment System for the first time in their early 20's
005. Metal Gear
This game is tough as nails, so tough in fact that after you play it you actually are Solid Snake. Don’t be fooled by the crappy dialogue (e.g. “I feel asleep”and “Uh-oh the truck have started to move!”), it will only make you drop your guard. Never drop your guard in this game.

So feel free to leave any and all comments.
004. Crystalis
I don’t want to give away too much about this game because it’s not as fun that way. I’ll just say that the graphics are great and the game itself is fairly addictive. These cutscenes are pretty great too.
Interesting note from Wikipedia:
- “The game’s story appears to be somewhat influenced by that of the Hayao Miyazaki anime film Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind,and some aspects of the art design appear to be, as well (for example, the giant insect boss in the swamp appears almost identical to the Ohmu; giant insects seen in the movie).”
The other SNK RPG that I have played was Dark Arms. Also pretty fun and unique. It was for the Neo-Geo Pocket Color.
Coming Soon
Games that I’ll be looking at soon:
- Crystalis
- Metal Gear
- Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode
- Bionic Commando
- The Legend of Zelda
- Monster Party
- Super Mario Bros. 2
Crystalis and Metal Gear will hopefully be posted this week.
003. Dragon Warrior
As you can see below the American cover art totally did a terrible job at just ripping off the Japanese cover art. (Click for a larger version)
In the video I fight a “Slime” which are pretty much the most popular thing in the entire series. Now I’ve got the slime fever. Whatever that means.
And here is the artwork for Dragon Quest IV as I promised.
002. Tetris
I play the classic puzzle game and give you the low down on what those shapes are actually called. Your popularity at parties just went up. You’re welcome.
I think that the Japanese Famicom cartridge art looks much cooler.
001. Super Mario Bros.
This is the first post about the first game that I ever played on the NES, it’s also the game that saved the industry. It’s Super Mario Bros.!
Sorry that the video is so crappy, I’m still testing things out.
This is how to beat Super Mario Bros. in the quickest way possible.
