Ikki (Famicom Review)


This week's game review is Ikki for the Famicom. This is probably the most legendary game in the Famicom library. Not because it is a good game, but it is a bad game.  This is the legendary "kusoge" or shit game. But what makes the game bad? Is it really bad? Or is it one of those misunderstood games, or even flawed but harshly criticized game? 

Well read more about the game after the jump.

Contra (Nes, Famicom) Review



This week's game is Contra for the Nes and Famicom. Contra is a shooting action game for the NES in America and the Famicom in Japan. It was released in February 1988 in America and Japan, and Europe version in 1990 by Konami. It must be noted that Contra is originally an arcade game ported to the NES and Famicom systems, but the home system version is the far more popular version of the game. Contra will probably be on a lot of gamers' minds as one of their favorite games.

In this game, you control one of the two commandos, Bill "Mad Dog" Rizer for the player one and Lance "Scorpion" Bean for the player two, who are sent to destroy the evil terrorist organization Red Falcon Organization. The players must guide the commandos through levels, shooting everything in the way. At the end of the level, the players must confront the stage boss and defeat it to go to the next stage.
