Decided to fire up the Turbo Duo this afternoon, and play some MAKAI PRINCE DORABOCCHAN aka Kid Dracula.  Pretty simple game, but it is a lot of fun.  I found I couldn't put it down, and kept pushing through.  I played through to the 3rd stage, and in that time I found a lot of different paths to take, finding different armors or power ups.  I am sure I have just scratched the surface with it.  The only complaint I have, and its not really a big complaint, is the music..  Its kinda....dull?  Maybe that's not the right word, but it wasn't what I expected.  All in all though, I would say the game is worth the buy.  :)

Yeah Bernie if it's Naxat it's going to be at least decent.  I've never played a terrible Naxat game.  Makai isn't the greatest but it's not bad either.  For how cheap it is it's worth the pick up.

Figured I would play Riot Zone this morning on my Duo.  :)

Anyone else get pissed everytime they watch the opening cinema when the one guys says to the other he's not going alone because he's going to go with and then you load up and there isn't a 2-player option! This could have been a great game with 2-player and a little less repitition.

That was always my biggest gripe with the game.

Heck yeah When I first played it back in the 90's I was so upset they did not make it a 2 player game.

They probably did some analysis on how many duo taps were sold and decided to cut 2 player option from scope of development.

Just finished Ys 3... even though its a huge departure from the original's gameplay (side scrolling action vs overhead RPG), I gotta say it was a really fun game. Much better than Zelda 2 (which I've seen it compared to).

Now on to Cosmic Fantasy 2!
Original owner of a TG-16 since 1989!

CURRENTLY PLAYING:
Vita - Conception 2
PS3 - Tales of Graces f
Wii U - Monster Hunter 3 Ulltimate

I 1CC'd Star Parodier on Normal this evening.  Woo!









What a fun game!  Definitely one of my favorites for the console. 

Then I popped in Ninja Spirit and beat that too.  No pics of that since I feel like I've posted pics of that one before.

It's been a good evening. :D

STATUS: Yes and yes. However, it took years and I love the stupid game. I also don't have Aspberger's Syndrome (like the folks at various forums who tackle challenging games easily).

MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER: With that said...BE PROUD THAT YOU ARE TACKLING R-TYPE like your average bastard. Take a few years...

Played some Avenger today and could only get to the third stage boss.  It's not too difficult, but I'm just having a problem finding my 'groove' with this game for some reason.  I'm going to keep at it though.

I beat it for the first time about a month ago.  It's doable, just hard.

Started playing Tricky Kick, seems fun.  I don't know how far I'll get, I generally give up on puzzle games like this before I finish them.
Current want list:  Bomberman 93
