Game-bit of the day 491: Primal Rage (Sega Saturn)


Isn't it fun to fight with dinosaurs and even a primeape? This was one of the many amazing fighters that was released with the Street Fighter fever in the mid 90s. So many to choose from!

Game-bit of the day 490: Dig Dug 2 (FC)

This is a pretty awesome game. The sequel is quite entertaining but I think you would be happy with either the first or second game. They are both classics.

Game-bit of the day 486: Contra Bootleg (FC)

The cover of this art is quite good. I wonder where they got it from? It's usually borrowed from a cartoon or something else.

Game-bit of the day 485: Donkey Kong (FC)

This is a classic game for the Famicom or NES if you have a converter. Furthermore, This is another one of the many bootlegs out there that have no title screen but you can tell what to expect.

Ads from the past 345: Donkey Konga 2

The bongos beat game for the gamecube had a sequel and it was just as fun as the original. I would've taken a 3D Donkey Kong adventure any day though.

Ads from the past 344: Pro BMX 2


This was the Tony Hawk for Cycling pros and it was quite good. Of course, it didn't took off like the Tony Hawk series. The game always lived in the shadows but you should definitely try it out.

Ads from the past 342: Dragonriders of Pern

This is a very simplistic ad which is what most of them were back in the 80s and early 90s till they turned crazy on us. This one shows a photo and some info about the game on the bottom. As simple as that! Enjoy!
