Bonk’s Revenge for the Nintendo Entertainment System Restored
September 2nd, 2015 Carl Williams Sometimes censorship in videogame is weird. Other times it is probably for the best. While I personally have no problem with upside down crosses in a game like Splatterhouse, there are people that are. Concerned parents usually have more to be worried about in that game than some background sprites. Same thing for the positioning […]

March 11th, 2015 Carl Williams This is interesting news, especially considering that severe lack of information on the RETRO Video Game System. CYBER Gadget Corporation is working on a console named “Retro Freak” which will purportedly play 11 different 16-Bit era consoles worth of games.
