Let’s Play Bubble Bobble

Let’s Play Bubble Bobble

Let’s Play Bubble Bobble! Another pathetic attempt at tying in a game which has nothing to do with Thanksgiving with Thanksgiving. The angle was that Thanksgiving is a time for eating (plenty of fruit and snacks in this game) and getting together with friends, so I invited my buddy Matt who had never played this […]

Let’s Play Rambo

Let’s Play Rambo

Let’s Play Rambo! Ah Link’s Adventur… errr… I mean Rambo. Seriously, you don’t have to be playing this game for very long to say that this game is a blatant and shameless rip-off of countless other games, especially Zelda 2. Don’t get me wrong; there are probably a hundred games for the NES which stole

Let’s Play Street Cop

Let’s Play Street Cop

Let’s Play Street Cop! I don’t care if this game (probably should) gets lots of down votes. My friend Matt from NYC was down visiting and we were getting into some games and Street Cop caught one or both of our eyes. What happened next, well no one and anyone could have only guessed. Let’s

Metroid

Let’s Play Metroid

Let’s Play Metroid! Similar to the Legend of Zelda around the same time, Metroid really showed off what an NES game could do in terms of scope. Planet Zebes (at least the parts you could access) was sprawling, and really put this game in a league of its own and showed that Nintendo didn’t mess

let's play 8 eyes

Let’s Play 8 Eyes

Let’s Play 8 Eyes! I don’t know why I get this game and Magician mixed up. They’re both kind of difficult, Magician more so obviously, but… yeah I have no idea. So this is 8 Eyes, a game which teaches kids that even when you fight someone to the death, you can still break bread

Let’s Play Gauntlet

Let’s Play Gauntlet! A request from DL I believe who was very generous and gifted me the remake of Gauntlet sometime after this, this is another one of those mind numbingly difficult games. Let’s Play Gauntlet: I played this twice, once with Matt with Jen helping to guide us, and once on my own. Something

Let’s Play Battletoads

Let’s Play Battletoads

Let’s Play Battletoads! The game everyone was waiting for and requesting. Fortunately this “sort of” let’s play is done so people can’t really ask for it anymore. I say sort of because this was a complete clusterfuck, though it was one which I had anticipated, so I decided to bring in my buddy Matt who

Let’s Play Shadowgate

Let’s Play Shadowgate

Let’s Play Shadowgate! Shadowgate was an interesting game, unlike anything I’ve played on the channel thus far and unlike anything I’ve played on the NES ever. Let’s Play Shadowgate: This is actually a pretty cool game with a nicely developed story, and the north/south/east/west navigation system was a nice change of pace, feeling like a
