The Best Retro Video Game Online Stores


Posted on 07/30/2023 at 08:23 PM | Filed Under Blogs

Another thing I liked doing back then was going to outdoor flea markets and many tables would sell new PSOne games super cheap.  Like getting an unopened copy of Ridge Racer Type 4 for 3 bucks.  That's one of the reasons why my PlayStation library is so big!  After a while they stopped selling video games at these flea markets and trade days, so I stopped going.

I kind of miss the mom and pop brick and mortar retro game stores.  There was one in a local mall for the longest time called FX.  And back in college I would go to GameFellas, which is a store that one of the folks who helped start PixlBit worked at.  I might've met him and not even known it then!  When I would visit family in Alabama, I would go visit a store called Player Two.  And when I was in high school, there was another retro game store in Alabama that was about the size of a walk in closet.  It didn't have a name and might've been a bit sketchy, but you couldn't beat those prices!  I got a lot of games there.

Unless the Switch puts it on their Genesis online collection someday.

Summer of the SEGA Genesis Mini 2: Part 1

When I got the Genesis Mini 2, games like Crusader of Centy wasn't even on the Switch yet, so it seemed like a better deal at the time.  But then, I still don't have the Online Plus account for my Switch, so I wouldn't be able to do Genesis games anyway.

This Week's Monsters

New Pokemon Snap was my GOTY when it was released.  I think it's cool that HAL Laboratory made the first game and Namco made the second one.  They do make reference to characters in the first game in the second one if you play it long enough.

Aw yeah!  You played Arkanoid DS?  Isn't it great?  A lot of people hate it, but I really liked it.  And that music!  What do you think of the music?

I think I'm the only person in the world who likes Mario 2 more than Mario 3.

I remember Vindicators and Xybots in the arcade.  Even though Xybots isn't my cup of tea, it's really not that bad of a game.

Mega Man 2 is one of the best games on the NES.  Even though my favorite is MM3, I can understand why someone might like 2 more.  My favorite Mega Man games are MM3, MM2, MM8, MMX, and MMX4.

I think Crusader of Centy is the best game in this batch.  But wait'll you see the crazy stuff that's in Part 2 next week!

1987 in Gaming


Posted on 07/23/2023 at 10:27 AM | Filed Under Blogs

So if you have to choose between Zelda 1 and 2, I'd pick Zelda 1.  To this day that's still one of my favorite Zeldas, and the second one is way too hard and one of the few Zelda games I never finished on my own.

I really like the Ys games.  Purists may not like it, but I enjoyed playing the first one on my DS.  Such great music in those games, too.

For shooters, I know you know that I like 1943.  I also really like Fantasy Zone but it's way too hard.  I also really enjoy Darius.  Another one of my top favorite shooters.  The first stage music "Captain NEO" is one of my top favorite video game tunes ever.

Mega Man came out in 1987...

This Week's Dragons


Posted on 07/22/2023 at 08:32 AM | Filed Under Blogs

The original Dragon Ball (Not Z) is one of my favorite anime cartoons.  

I really liked New Super Lucky's Tale and I'm glad it eventually came to Switch, since I don't have the new Xbox consoles.  It reminded me of something you'd play on the GameCube.

I reviewed Arkanoid: Eternal Battle.  It's all right, but it felt like it was missing something.

I may have said this before, but 1943 is one of my top favorite shooters, even after all this time!
