Oh great. I'll have to try Ant-Bear then.
Doesn't look like Oils Well is on the C64 Mini but there is a firmware update you can get to add games to the system. I'll probably not go that far though. At least I can play Ant-Bear though.
I watched videos on these. They seem a bit too simple for me, but they are cute. I think I like the DS games a bit better.
Cool. It would certainly be a lot of fun with two or more players.
Yeah, that's kind of cool. I may try it too.
I'm already planning my reddit post to r/xboxachievements, trying to figure out if there is a quicker time to completion that I can tell people who are just going for achievements. I see howlongtobeat gives a completionist time of 202 hours, but I'm thinking it can be done much faster if you know the system of the game well and optimize everything. I'm just playing, and learning the game as I go, having fun with it.
I know. I was surprised too. 2014 was VH: The Great War and 2023 the sequel. 9 years between them, enough time to have forgotten about it.
I read that Anteater was made for the 2600 but not published. Maybe Atari 50 will get it somehow from Mattel.
I read also that Oils Well was ported to C64 as Oils Well: Pipeline Run. I wonder if it's on my C64 mini console I got last year. I'll have to break that out again next month when I do 80s stuff.
Neat games! I like Anteater especially.
I remember being mystified at the Tekken/Pokemon mash up as well when the game came out.
I noticed there's a file sharing feature for Mario Paint as well so you can share drawings. I guess you can plus in any plug 'n' play mouse to the Switch for this?
Subscribed. This looks more fun than Scramble. It doesn't look like you need to shoot fuel tanks to refuel your ship. That's a relief.
I remember seeing the TRS80 around in the 80s but I never had one. I didn't know it began in '77. I'll have to add it to my list of 70s systems and games to play. I love that still shot of the whole system, monitor and disc drives. It gives me retro fever.
Were you playing the game outside?
Alaro looks kind of cool, but I seem to remember you saying it was a bit expensive.
I got out the Switch just to add Space Invaders: Invincible Collection to my wish list. It's the three from Forever and every SI game ever plus Lunar Rescue. It's $60 though, so I'll wait for a sale. I wonder if there's a physical copy out there?
Glad to hear DK Banaza was good. I'm desperate to play that.
I have the Shovel Knight Amiibo because I love the look of their games, but, yes, HARD. How annoying. I'll take a look at Mina: The Hollower though.
So many of these retro-looking games and game collections out right now. It's hard to tell which are worth it. They all look a bit like shovelware to me.
