	Mega Man 2 review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Is this knowledge necessary to complete the game? For the most part, no. It's just good fun. Little tricks like that do quite a bit to add to the experience. More importantly, they present a player with new ways to play. Even if you've gone through the game once using one strategy, it's always fun to try again by defeating the robots in a different order.
	Super Mario Bros. 3 review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown If you own a Nintendo, and you have not played Super Mario Brothers 3, do not deny yourself any longer.
	Mega Man 3 review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown So the whole 'more of a good thing' aspect of Mega Man 3 isn't what disappoints me. Rather, it was a lack of heart. Where Mega Man 2 had absolutely genius level design and totally cool environments, Mega Man 3 takes a more sterile approach. There are lots of wide, open spaces where not much of anything is happening. The polish isn't there in quite the same evidence, and some of the game's size is derived from repetition.
	Tecmo NBA Basketball review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown All in all, the gameplay of Tecmo NBA Basketball is far from perfect, but there's really no other comparisions.
	Super Dodge Ball Advance review (GBA) Reviewed on Date Unknown And that brings me to this point: the single-player replay value stinks! After your first two or three championships, you will find that the game just isn't any fun anymore. Even at the highest difficulty setting it is still way too easy...
	Mega Man 4 review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Another thing I like here is that the robots fit their stages so much better. By the time you reach the end of the sewers that make up Toad Man's home, the confrontation with the robot master will seem perfectly natural. Though the same could be said of some of the stages in Mega Man 3, the techniques this time around don't make me think Capcom got lazy.
	Tetris review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Once in a while, there comes an event that is so revolutionary that the world sits up and takes notice. The everyday lives of the simple minded plebeians that inhabit the world are enthralled by this event, and even some interstellar biorganism tree frogs from Alpha Centuri are intrigued. Tetris is not one of those events. However, it is a pretty fun Nintendo game.
	Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown Not only does Defender of the Future have absolutely no replay value whatsoever, it is so gosh-darn hard that you probably won't even finish the freakin' thing! Nonetheless, the game does contain at least some enjoyment, and it looks so good that you'll probably spend all your time admiring your sourroundings and ignoring the actual objective of your quest.
	Mega Man 5 review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown The eight stages may not seem all that original (many of them just seem like variations of some of the less memorable stages from past games), but their actual construction is still proficient. Gamers will guide Mega Man along the top of a train, and inside its engine. They'll ride bubbles toward a spike-lined ceiling, hop aboard a watercraft for some shooting fun on the river.
	WWF Wrestlemania Challenge review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown However, it's doubtful that you'll get more than thirty minutes of enjoyment out of it.
	Jet Grind Radio review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown From what I understand, Sega created a new program, apparently called ''CelShader,'' that draws a black outline around three-dimensional polygon figures, giving them a cartoony-look. Well, they decided to use this in Jet Grind Radio, and the result is some very pretty characters.
	Zelda II: The Adventure of Link review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown It's an enjoyable game, and everyone should at least try it to see if it's their fancy, but most people will be more disappointed than pleased.
	NFL 2K1 review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown Both the play-by-play and color commentary are awesome, and that play-by-play excellence should be noted a million times. The commentators accurately depict the events of the contest, and include player names, yardage, and...
	Spiritual Warfare review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown It's all quite cool, but odd in that the setting is contemporary (obviously that would explain the forklifts I mentioned above). Link never visited a bar and got thrown out. Link never went through the junkyard. So even if this is a clone, it covers some new territory.
	NHL 2K review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown And finally, even on All-Star mode, it's too damn easy to score goals, and it's too damn hard for the other team to score. This basically leaves you to either an undefeated season, or a 150-point journey...
	Phantasy Star Online review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown Not only are the textures incredibly smooth and detailed, but the characters are very well animated, and their appearance changes under certain lights, such as turning a realistic orange tint under an orange light, and looking like a disco bouncer when standing under a teleport, with the strobe light effect reflecting on them.
	Paperboy 2 review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown If Paperboy was John Candy, then its sequel is Chris Farley. The colors are gaudy, they clash ridiculously with even themselves, and yet somehow they look bland and unremarkable unless they're throwing themselves in your face. The cartoony look from the first title is mostly gone, yet the NES can't really handle the new visual direction. As a result, it's almost depressing.
	Koudelka review (PSX) Reviewed on Date Unknown Koudelka has a similar look and feel to a survival horror game; Except there are random encounters while exploring the monastery and the battles are duked out in a strategy RPG format on a 7x7 grid.
	Shenmue review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown With plenty of twists and turns and loops and corkscrews, and several different ways to reach a certain objective, the story is neither flat nor boring. And, may I note, is a far different story than your traditional RPG, along with a difference in gameplay.
	Chip 'N Dale: Rescue Rangers review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Ahead, a kettle lies over a burner, boiling a sludgy mixture while killer bees bomb at you kamikaze-style from the right. You know that a single misstep will turn you into an appetizer, so you watch a bee and then plot your jump as the space is clear. Suddenly, your bushy charge is plummeting into the soup and instant death, the victim of a crate to the head. It appears your devious cohort was waiting for you to let down your guard.
