  • Holy crap, it’s really been 30 years?

    The Nintendo 64 and Super Mario 64 was my most anticipated game and console of my lifetime. And it lived up to my expectations. Super Mario 64 was a truly revolutionary gaming experience.

    The transition into 3d was kind of rocky, and a lot of developers took some time to get up to speed. But Nintendo and Rare kept putting out banger after banger.

  • I’m not familiar with the master system, but the Genesis has a fair number of good games. I think it unfortunately doesn’t hold up as well as it’s competitor the SNES though, because Sega went hard on licensed properties and sports titles, and a lot of those games just aren’t particularly relevant these days, and there were a lot of cross platform games that were just better on the SNES.

    But a few that I think are worth mentioning:

    • The adventures of Batman and Robin
    • Contra hard corps
    • gunstar heroes
    • vectorman 1 & 2
    • Ghostbusters
    • streets of rage 2
    • comix zone
    • Toejam and Earl 1 & 2 (the sequel is a very different game)
    • zombies ate my neighbors
    • road rash 2
    • earthworm Jim 1 & 2
    • Castlevania bloodlines
    • Shinobi III
    • Rocket Knight adventures
    • Mickey mouse Castle of illusion
