Darkwing Duck for the NES, based on a cartoon show that Disney
put out in the 90s. I remember the show
quite well from when I was a kid; however I only recently found out that there
was an NES game for it. Now much like
many Disney games for the NES put out by Capcom during this time, is game is
actually extremely solid for a shooting plateformer. The animation matches the series pretty
well, the controls are extremely solid, and it’s actually more fun then I was
expecting.
Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest for the NES, now in general
this game is known for being almost impossible to complete without some kind of
walkthrough not really due to the difficult but the translations resulting in
character dialogue that is extremely unclear and confusing. Still I find myself enjoying the game a lot
regardless of the games numerous flaws though a lot of this may be due to the
fact that we did have a player’s guide for the game from Nintendo Power before
we played the game so I guess we experienced less of the overall frustration.
Batman for the NES, though only slightly based on the
original Tim Burton movie, it is commonly viewed as a classic on the NES,
though today was the first time I’ve ever actually played it. I don’t really have much to say other then
all of the good things people has said about it in the past are entirely true. Though I can’t beat the first stage at the
moment, NES hard, there is a reason this term exists.
Adventure Island 3 for the NES, this was the game I was
actually looking for earlier in the year when I accidently purchased the
original. Compared to the original I
like this one much more and even when test playing it, I ended up playing it
for much longer then I usually do with these kind of things. One thing I will say, this is probably the
best condition game I have ever purchased from a used game store such as Gamers,
I see almost no flaws in the cartridge or even the labeling. Though not really all that important considering
the condition many of these kinds of games has, it’s always nice to see
something in extremely good condition
Kingdom Hearts for the Playstation 2, even as an RPG fan I
have not played any Kingdom Heart games at this point though I have been told
many times by people I know that I must play this series at some point and now
I shall. Not much to say since I’m new
to the series but here it is.
So this ends the collecting for this year, in the next
couple of days I’ll be putting up my 2012 collection album so please take a
look when I do ;)
