Game-bit of the day 461: Castlevania (NES)

Game-bit of the day 460: Pokemon Stadium (SNES)


This is an odd game. It plays real good though but very odd overall. It was released by some crazy bootleger~!

Ads from the past 333: Flicky


A very cute ad from a classic arcade cabinet from the 80s. I've never played it but I do love the art.

Game-bit of the day 459: Street Fighter V (SNES)


This is one bizarre Street Fighter hack. It's a hack that lets you spam the entire fight with super moves! It's quite a sight!

Game-bit of the day 458: Captain Tsubasa 3 (SNES)



This is the Spanish version of Captain Tsubasa 3 for the SNES. It's quite interesting but the worst part is that the game doesn't save! You'll have to find a way to beat the entire game! 


Share:

Ads from the past 332: Micro Maniacs

This is a very interesting ad. It really only shows an alien dude doing some kind of movement. I'm intrigued!

Pokemon Card of the Week 047: Supporter


The artwork of this card is quite cute. I never even knew about support cards but I'm guessing they support somewhat.

Game-bit of the day 457: Rockman X3 (Genesis)


Here is a very odd and bad game for the Sega Genesis. This is Mega Man X3 for the Genesis. You can see now why the game was never released for the console. This is a bootleg after all. A very bad bootleg!

Game-bit of the day 456: Super Mario Bros and Ninja Gaiden for Genesis


These two games are not even supposed to exist! In my world, they do and are quite playable!

Game-bit of the day 455: Spud's Adventure (GB)

This is a very rare game and really good. That's the best part of these games! It was also released by Atlus!

Game-bit of the day 454: Splatterhouse 3 and Super Puzzle Fighter II


These are two gems that have completely different gameplays and artwork. The games are just beautiful in their own ways!

Ads from the past 330: Master System II


Here is a pretty awesome ad. It's based on the Master System and contains a bunch of different covers. Hmmm... I think I'm going to dig my old Master System.

Game-bit of the day 453: Contra 3 Alien Wars (NES)


This is a very odd game that was released in Hong Kong. The game found its way to me !

Game-bit of the day 452: Mario's Game Gallery (PC)


A little Mario game full of mini games for all your liking. It's quite odd but fun at the same time! 


Share:

Ads from the past 329: Duke Nukem


Here is a very manly ad about the Duke Nukem game for the Game Boy Color. It's pretty ran overall. Duke kicks !!

Game-bit of the day 451: Super Gameboy and Gameboys

This is a nice sight to see! The Super Gameboy brought your portable games into the big screen. This was a plus because you didn't needed to use batteries anymore or focus on a tiny screen. It's a wonderful accessory.

Finds 910: Enter PC-Engine and Other Wonderful Games!

 I've been hunting for one of these for a long time and it's crazy that I was able to find one locally. I didn't think twice about picking it up! This is the PC-Engine! A console with a very unique library of gems. With this console, I'm now opened to a library of awesome games that I will be acquiring little by little as some of their better games are hard to come by. I also picked up some games~! 
Here are two PC-Engine games which are Samurai Ghost and Kung Fu. They are very generic games but fun overall. I also picked up Dynablaster for the Gameboy which is actually Bomberman and finally a very unique collector's edition called Omega Quintet. I'm really happy with all these new additions!

Game-bit of the day 450: Zelda a Link to the Past (FC)


This is a bootleg that I remade the cover to make it. The game is quite confusing and is limited because of the hardware but fun overall. It's a plus if you know how to read Cantonese.

Ads from the past 328: Sega Saturn Sexy Ad

I remember seeing this ad and liking it a lot. I was like 8 but I know what I like ^_^ Anyways, I always get distracted looking at it! HA!

Finds 909: Unusual Gems! Playstation Style!


These are some awesome games for the Playstation 1 and 2. Working Designs is an awesome publisher so I'm happy to add it to my collection. Monster Seed is an unusual but entertaining Pokemon clone and the rest have all uniqueness of their own. I love picking up games like these.

Game-bit of the day 449: Ys the Vanished Omens (SMS)


This is an awesome RPG! The classic Ys series is unique and always come with a wonderful story line. Also, isn't the artwork just beautiful? 


Share:

Finds 908: Xbox Gems!


I did my research when I was looking at the Adventure Time game for the 360. The game just looks and plays like a Zelda game. I can't say no to that. The other game, Guilty Gear... well... it's Guilty Gear! Enough said!

Game-bit of the day 448: Yu-gi-oh! Dark Duel Stories (GBC)


The first portable Yu-gi-oh! game ever released. This one came with some very sought after cards! Totally worth playing!


Share:

Finds 907: Bravely Second Collector's Edition!


This is one impressive collector's edition. I thought that the first one was impressive. This one is just beautiful to look at. The gameplay does lack a bit especially when the first one was so great.
