Street Fighter Alpha 2. Capcom (1996) Super Nintendo
THEY’RE REVIEWING A STREET FIGHTER GAME! IT’S HAPPENING! LIGHT THE BEACONS, SOUND THE HORNS, GENTLY HELP YOUR GRANDMA DOWN THE STAIRS! I had a bit of a moment there. So Street Fighter is slightly divisive for us here at Games…

Aladdin. Capcom (1994) Super Nintendo
The only real fight in the Great 16bit Console War me and my mates had was between Aladdin on the Megadrive and Aladdin on the SNES. So forget your Crash Bandicoot vs Super Mario 64 as that wasn’t a contest. Forget…

Donkey Kong Country 2 : Diddy’s Kong Quest. Rareware (1995) Super Nintendo
The absolute titanium balls on Rare, eh? Given creative control of one of Nintendo’s most beloved mascots in Donkey Kong, Rare proceeded to take the proverbial mile, creating it’s own lore and characters for the first game. A smash hit,…

The Addams Family. Ocean Software (1992) Super Nintendo
One of the challenges of attempting to review Retro Games is the ability to take off your own nostalgia glasses. Just because you loved a game when you were 8, doesn’t mean that you have to still like it. And…

Killer Instinct, Rareware (1994) Super Nintendo
I suck at Tournament Fighters, there aren’t many I can beat and there are certainly even less that I am vaguely good at but at least I can beat Killer Instinct on easy though, so I’ve got that going for me.

The site has become a bit Capcom heavy, so I am going to try upping the Konami output for the month with Konami Month. I had been working on the assumption that all Batman games were a bag of wank…

Super Smash TV, Acclaim/Flying Edge (1990) Super Nintendo/Sega Genesis
In a rare twist I am going to review the same game on two consoles resulting in two scores. I never played Super Smash TV in the arcades, but I get the feeling you really needed the dual d-pad controls to…
