NES – Bionic Commando
Back in the days when most of my gaming experiences came from borrowing games from other people, and my uncle was the biggest gamer I knew (which also made him the coolest), I would spend many a weekend visiting family with all of us huddled around the NES waiting for our turn. Bionic Commando lended itself well to ‘die and pass the contoller’ style gameplay, and I can still remember the joy of beating the entire game in a single sitting with three other family members.

Bionic Commando comes from a school of gaming not found much in gaming today. Lose all your lives and run out of continues? Sorry small fry, you kind of need to start over from the beginning. Tough luck. (more…)

Remember when you were a wee little child and asked your parents for a dog but you couldn’t have one because of your little sisters allergies and were given a pet lizard instead? This week’s edition of Nintentunes is dedicated to that as it is an all reptile edition. This week we will go dinosaur hunting, eat sewer pizza, and even talk to our reptile mayors in the city. Join us, and as always, enjoy the music! (more…)
