Retro Game of the Week 072: Tiny Toons (NES)
I actually played the pirate of this game but fell in love with it nonetheless. Tiny Toons for the NES is how a very funny cartoon converted to a console should have been done. Konami did a lot of things well in this game which went up through the SNES era but that's another story. Tiny Toons is your average platformed that can turn a hell a lot better if you love the cartoon as the familiarity is uncanny for such a game. You'll see characters from the series all over the place. The story of the game is very simple, Babs Bunny has been kidnapped and it's up to Buster and the rest of them to save her. They will have to go through six awesome levels filled with enemies you may have seen in the cartoon DUH!
The game is very interesting as you can pick a partner from the duck(Plucky), the Tazmanian devil (Dizzy), and the cat (Furball) to accompany you on your journey. This is key as each character has their own ability therefore they will be useful in different ways on each level. Some of them are more useful than others so it'll take you at least one run through the entire game to figure out what level each belongs to. It doesn't make any difference since if you already went through the game once, you already know and figure out everything you need to know in order to beat it so take your best guess!
The levels are very easy if you figure the patterns and what not. You can probably get through the game in less than an hour but it's fun over all. The music is quite good as well as it familiarizes with the cartoon's at some points not all of course. To conclude, this game is very easy to pick up and play which can be very good for people who aren't ready to learn new gaming styles and to through hour-long tutorials. Yes, this is the power of retro gaming at its maximum! You better believe it!
