Game-bit of the day 612: Phantasmagoria (PC)


Happy Halloween! This is the perfect game for today! It's the spooky and revolutionary Phantasmagoria for the PC! This game comes in Seven discs! It's insane! It's a horror story of course. It's an obscurity if you ask me. You have to play it, I would tell you what it's all about but don't want to spoil everything. Hey, your main protagonist is a girl!

Finds 945: More Masterful Finds! Double Dragon & Zillion!


Two more great titles for the Sega Master System. I bet most of you guys didn't know that Double Dragon for the Master System is the better version of both the NES and Master System. Why is that? Because it's actually two players! Take that Nintendo! I bet you also didn't know that Zillion was based on an anime and that was unheard of back in the late 80s. Video games and anime together? Blasphemy! Anyways, two games you should definitely check out!

Finds 943: Demon's Crest is Finally Mine!

Finds 942: Golvellius for the Sega Master System!

Ever wanted to play a Zelda type of game for the Sega Master System? Look no further! This is Golvellius Valley of Doom and it plays a lot like Zelda. It even goes further by giving you different types of gameplay such as side scrolling and even a shoot 'em up type of game. It's everything in one and quite underrated! Get it now!

Finds 940: Sega Master System Haul!

This was a pick up I did some time ago but never got around to post about it. It's a beautiful Sega Master System haul with Power Base Converter. I can play these games on my Retron V without having to bring out my good old Master System. It's very handy for when you want to preserve your older consoles. Lets face it, they are getting harder to find!

Game-bit of the day 607: Phalanx (SNES)

This gotta be the most crazy looking and weird looking cover art for a game that doesn't even have anything to do with an old man. This is a shoot 'em up with a bizarre cover art. The game is good though..

Game-bit of the day 606: Dungeons and Dragons (Sega Saturn)


This is beauty for the Sega Saturn. The games are ports of the original arcade games we played back in the early 90s. They're so much fun to play through especially with company.

Game-bit of the day 604: Tokyo Mirage Sessions Special Edition (Wiiu)

This is a very odd combination of RPG elements. Both Nintendo and Atlus teamed up for a very cool game and the first that made it to the Wiiu. This console isn't getting the love it deserves!

Game-bit of the day 603: Faria (FC)

This has a very awesome cover art. I love how it looks and will probably show some art of it by the time you're reading this. It's Faria for the Famicom! We did got this game in the USA but the difference in cover arts is well...lets just leave it like that.
