Finds 1311: Captain Comic 2 for DOS

Here is another awesome classic game for the PC. It's a classic series which plays a lot like Super mario bros. As a matter of fact, the sprite looks quite similar. It's a lot of fun nonetheless. Gotta love these amazing games.

Finds 1310: Rockman X4 Disk Acquired!

So a couple of years ago, I got a bunch of Mega Man imports and Rockman X4 was one of them. Unfortunately, the game came with the wrong disk. After talking to the seller, he gave me a partial refund and the case was left without being completed. That is, until now! I got the disk only copy of the game and placed it in its rightful place. It's quite satisfying to finish it!

Finds 1308: Castle of the Winds II for DOS

Castle of the Winds II is a game released for Windows. This is another game I tried when I used to be on AOL. So many of these games were available to play shareware of course. It's wonderful and very nostalgic.

Finds 1307: Ancients 2 for DOS

This is a classic game that I played during the good old AOL times. I remember going to the games section on the program AOL 3.0 to be precise, and downloaded the game. So incredible! It was a very limited game, but so much fun.

Finds 1303: Sega Genesis Mini is Mine!

Another wonderful little mini console for the collection. I was able to pick this up at Gamestop used for 34.99! Now, that's a steal! I snatched this up! It comes with lots of amazing games and guess what? Just like with any of the other mini consoles, it cane be hacked to add more games!

Finds 1301: Running Battle and Bloodstained Ritual of the Nigh

Here are two new titles! Bloodstained which is a gorgeous game for the Switch, and Running Battle which just attracted me so much from the cover art. It won't be the last time I buy a game for the artwork itself!

Finds 1300: Retro Freak is Here! The All in One Console!


For the 1300th post, we got a new console! This is the Retro Freak and it's amazing! It loads your classic games on your big screen high def TV! It's just beautiful! It works with an SD card and rips off the data off the card, then saves it to your SD card so you don't need the cart again. That's quite handy if you ask me. It plays over 9 consoles and has some add ons for more consoles including the Game Gear. This is just an amazing console. I already set them up in my room, now I just need the time to game! Totally highly recommend it!
