Retro Redux: NES Quest – Updates, New Vote, and Refresher
The NES Quest continues to move forward, albeit at a rather slow pace. I tried to juggle several games over this last week: Hyrule Warriors, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, and StarTropics.

Retro Redux: NES Quest – New Vote
How random selection works on NES Quest.
