    The meat of my site is the SNES reviews section. Read my rating guide before you read any of the reviews. Ratings explained

    So far, I have up:


    An American Tale: Fievel Goes West


    Power Moves


    Rocky Rodent


    Saturday Night Slam Masters


    Time Slip


    Wolfenstein 3-D

    My latest review: Super Metroid. 1st game to score a perfect 10? See for yourself...



    BTW, those (text-filled) pictures are original and self-made just in case anyone's wondering.

    Latest update:

    Memories of Renting

    Did you too grow up renting NES, Genesis and Super NES games from various mom 'n pop's, as well as the big boys? Do you harbor warm, fuzzy memories for such? Then, believe it or not, you're not the only one....

    Thanks Steven! I really liked the reviews, especially the coverage of lesser known games like Timeslip...and the "Memories of Renting" is excellent!

    Yeah - I liked your site.

    I miss renting games as well. It was so fun and I remember how Fridays were always so frustrating because you only got the good games for the weekend if you either rented a game and kept it late or if your parents rented it for you in the morning while you were at school.

    Renting games. That brings me back to my high school days + 1 year or so after. So many NES, Genesis and TG16 games I rented over that period of time.

    I too was sad to see the mom and pop stores go. On the plus side, I did take advantage of the going out of business sale the closest store to me (Video Plus in DeBary FL.) had. I loaded up on NES, Genesis and TG16 games, several of which I still have. I even scored Tengen's Tetris for about 6 bucks there, and it was complete.

    Anyway, great article!

    Still love your site---thanks for all the great recomendations. I bought a copy of Do Re Mi Fantasy--amazing!!! What a shame that it never came to the US.

    Thanks for the kind words guys.

    It's been about a week, but I'm back with a new review



    "Doom in 2D platforming blasting kiddified form" describes it somewhat well IMO. It's also a strange mix of Megaman and Metroid!

    B.O.B.

    Keep an eye out for DP members IronDraggon, cyberfluxor and Neo Rasa peppered in there!
