I got Simon's Quest for Christmas and had to wait for Nintendo Power to tell me kneel down with the crystal to go to the next area. **** that game, and the designers. You don't have to fight a boss FFS, Dracula is a ****ing joke. No enemies in the final mansion/castle?! LMAO Ugh. |

heres an interesting tidbit for you gauntlet fans. since both gauntlet arcade games were hits, there was a 3rd gauntlet game that got approved for development. but while the game was being made, the Midway company got bought out by Bally. the new management scrapped the idea of a 3D gauntlet and made the game a sci-fi shooter instead. the final product was called Xybots. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6Yp2XrrCYBc" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

I remember this game was especially difficult. it had a slam-dial controller. i don't think there were any other games that had that. I liked it though because I was a fan of the Brian Colin pixel art in games. |

by the way, "high score" is a docuseries on Netflix that goes over the start and rise of video games, etc.
Pretty good stuff. I recall several minutes spent discussing Nintendo Power and the NES tips hotline. They feature a guy who was pretty young and he tells his story of how he got a job there, etc. Entertaining. |

Check off Castlevania and Ninja Gaiden for the NES.
Both games seemed impossible when I was a kid, now I can blow through them. |
