Spotlight: Castlevania II - Belmont's Revenge


The Castlevania games appearing on the original Game Boy have a reputation of not being of the highest quality. Even back in the day my friends and myself, along with I assume many others, knew that the original game didn't quite capture the spirit of the NES games. The second game, Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge,  however, was a far superior game. So today we're going to talk about it!

Spotlight: Ironsword - Wizards & Warriors II


Today I'm going to talk a bit about a fantastic NES game! The Wizards & Warriors series has always been fairly popular, but this one gets a lot of attention because of our good friend Fabio up there. There's more to love about this game, though!

There is a lot of hype around the 32X Spider-Man game Web of Fire due to its rarity, but not a lot is ever really said about the Sega CD game The Amazing Spider-Man vs The Kingpin. Don't get caught up in the web of deception; this game is absolutely... well, amazing! Now it's swing time!

Spotlight: Dark Wizard


Fact:  The Sega CD's library is not all questionable quality full motion video games.  While it has a reputation of having some truly awful games on it, the Sega CD is the home of a handful of unknown or underrated games.  Today we're going to put the spotlight on one of those unknown games.  Let's take a look at Dark Wizard!  Come on!

Spotlight: Wolfchild


Today we're going to spotlight the often ignored game Wolfchild by Core Design, Ltd.  It's definitely... average.  That doesn't mean it's bad, though!  Let's take a look at it!

Spotlight: Metal Storm


Metal Storm kicks off a new feature called Spotlight.  This is one of my favorite games for the NES, so I think it will be a good candidate to start with!  These aren't reviews... these are Spotlights!
