4 Sega Genesis Super Mario Ports You Don’t Know About
December 13th, 2015 Carl Williams Super Mario is a Nintendo property and the chances of Nintendo letting it onto other platforms is pretty much less than zero. Why would Nintendo let their leading man out to work on say, Sega Genesis or PC’s? It makes no sense for them to do so. They are not in the same position that […]

Is It Time for Mario to Return to Computers (Mario running in Unreal 4 Engine)?
June 29th, 2015 Carl Williams It is not all that often that Nintendo lets their lead franchises out to play on other platforms other than Nintendo bred ones. We saw this happen in the 80’s in Japan when Hudson Soft released a Super Mario Bros on the PC-88. We also saw it happen with the CD-i when Philips released versions […]

Super Mario Bros 2 Hits the Nintendo Entertainment System – April 28th 1989 – Today in History
April 28th, 2015 Carl Williams Nintendo was still new to sequels when Super Mario Bros 2 (SMB 2) hit the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Boy did they go away from the norm for what a sequel was supposed to be. This seque was almost a complete departure from the original NES title. In Japan the title used for the US […]

Kunoi Mixes Running Games with Retrogaming Classic Elements Slashing Through Kickstarter
March 20th, 2015 Carl Williams Endless running games are quite the “thing” in the mobile world. For the most part, they have not really taken off on computers, where the first person shooter (FPS) is king. Kunoi isn’t looking to attempt to change that, though there are some running game elements here they are not front and center. No, front […]

Fan Translation: Picross 2 for Game Boy Now Available in English
February 13th, 2015 Carl Williams Before Sudoku was rocking the world there was Picross.

Demake: Super Mario 64 for the Atari 2600, Yes You Read that Right
January 15th, 2015 Carl Williams When Nintendo launched their 64-Bit beast of a console it was at an interesting time. The competition were busying themselves with 32-Bit CPU’s and the games that came along with that level of graphical prowess. Nintendo decided to not even bother with the 32-Bit generation and leap frog to the next logical plateau, 64-Bit. Of […]

Bandit Gaming: Super Smash Bros Ported to TI-83 Graphing Calculator
November 15th, 2014 Carl Williams What can’t the Texas Instruments TI-83 do? We have seen Mario clones, puzzle games and more on this graphing calculator, and of course math related stuff. Now, we can add an unofficial Super Smash Bros game to the long list of applications you can use on your TI-83, or TI-84, that are not specifically calculator/graphing […]

New Game: Candlelight is 2.5D Side Scrolling Action Platform Awesomeness
October 29th, 2014 Carl Williams Anyone that knows me knows I am into 2.5D side scrolling games from the likes of Astal and Clockwork Knight on the Sega Saturn to the reboot of Castle of Illusion or Swordigo. If it is 2.5D side scrolling action, role playing, adventuring, I will at least give it a chance. This is the reason […]
