I think I like this version better than the NES one. Cleaner movement.

No. Please no. All the no's. Had to play a round of real Tetris to cleanse the pallet.

Not bad. I usually loathe retro soccer games, but this was in the realm of enjoyable.

Bate's Backlog - Target Earth

Way too aggressive. I think I would have liked it a lot if it weren't so punishing or had infinite continues.

Cool concept, but way overdone. The game itself is slow enough, you don't need to menu me to death.

Bate's Backlog - Superman

A little clunky, and stingy on lives/continues. Has potential, though.

Bate's Backlog - Super Volleyball

Pretty good for an old sports game. Good controls, though I'm sure I didn't figure them all out.

Among the worst of the old-school 'into the sunset' type racing games.

Bate's Backlog - Super Fantasy Zone

I feel like I've played this before. In any case, not a bad shoot em up. Despite it's cutsie appearance, there's some challenge in the bosses, at least

Controls are very weird in this game, it would take a lot of getting used to.

Bate's Backlog - Strider 2

Not as amusing as the first game. I still think I might want to take a second look at these at some point.

There are parts of me that really want to like this game. The animations are really cool. The difficulty is pretty high, though. Never a lack of things trying to kill you. It's alright, I guess

Max don't take no #$% from nobody. Not in those ball-squashing tights. I'd be pissed, too.

Played Streets of Rage 3 a lot as a kid. Never really played this one, but still the same solid format.

Does raging at this game after so many years count as nostalgia?

Some graphics problems with this copy, but the gameplay is solid. Would definitely revisit

Bate's Backlog - Starflight

This is a weird one. Looks like it has potential and is a long game, but probably need to know what to do to enjoy it. Was out with a flu yesterday, so missed an upload. Will have an extra upload today, a couple hours after this one.

Bate's Backlog - Squirrel King

What a total rip-off of one of my favourite childhood games. I looked into it and yeah, it's a bootleg game. Probably in violation of copyright. It isn't even good enough to be called a homage, no less. Smh

This wouldn't be too bad if it weren't for the weird directional controls. Also, what were you thinking with that font?!

I can at least transform in this one. Still not sure who this bad guy is that the mask keeps talking about

The mask says it'll give me power, but I'm still just punching and kicking. What a scam.

I remember this one from when I played in arcades, in the long long ago. A bit of bs, but overall pretty good

Not bad. I don't usually like this kind of perspective, but it wasn't bothering me that much. Controls are a bit wonky

I like wrestling games, but not the super old ones. This one is kinda in between, but feels more like a fighting game than a wrestling game.

Decent puzzle game. I can see how this would ramp up in difficulty later

Another gem on the Genesis. Loving the style, and the added pet dog. Not an easy game, mind you.

Feels so good to be back on the Genesis. Another good platform / puzzle game here. These high movement speeds would be sweet when you know the game well.

A nice little side scroller. Good aesthetic, good controls, and forgiving progression for essentially one-shot deaths.

Bate's Backlog - Rockman Mega World

Technically I've played this in the backlog before, as this is just the Japanese port of Megaman Wily Wars, but I didn't play Megaman 3 back then, so might as well.

Another lovable game. Great concept, great theme, great level design. Probably in my top 5 on Genesis

Loving this one. The controls are interesting, the music is sweet, the aesthetic is vibrant and playful. Easy revisit list candidate

This is all so unnecessary. Just identify as a real boy; nobody can say shit anymore. Get with the times, Pinocchio, sheesh.

Moving over to the Genesis for a while to mix it up. Although, this one is basically a 3 in 1 of NES games, so...
