Quite the variety this time!

I am back with the NES-A-Thon! Yeah I'm still pushing my way through it surprisingly. I don't have much left. But I've been saying that for the past 20 NES-A-Thon streams now.

The first game of the night was Total Recall. Which I guess was a movie based game. I've never seen the movie. So I assume based on the game, there's this guy who gets pulled into alleyways to take on hordes of bad guys and then climbs pipes to escape the area. And also punching down police officers. I mean that's what was shown in the game. Next game was Sesame Street ABC. You definitely learned your letters in this game. Now I did play a Sesame Street learning NES game before. I could've sworn the games had more... variety? Here... each one is basically the exact same. Drop the letters from the Ferris wheel and have them ring the bell. And then watch a dance when you win. Also known as, holy shit this game is boring. You know what is not boring though? Super Mario Bros. 3! Yes finally... I get another Mario game! It's a fucking miracle! I happily trot my way through the game. For some reason I decide to go to world 8... I never made it past 8-1. But hey... at least it was a fun game!

Spy Hunter was not a fun game. You move way too fast. You never have enough time to react to what's ahead of you. It essentially a high score game from what I could tell. And yes. Another damn vomit inducing background. Clearly game developers have no sympathy for the players. At least Rock 'n' Ball didn't have vomit inducing backgrounds. Looks like it was a game collection. I just played Pinball because... well... it's Pinball! I wasn't good at it... that or the layout was so damn unfair. Drop your ball through the center star? Yeah you ain't getting that ball back. Bases Loaded II Second Season was the next game. Could you guess this was a Baseball game? Also known as... the worst fucking NES Baseball game ever with a shitty ass angle for when you're batting and slow ass players to control causing you to give up 5 runs in the first inning? If so, you win a cookie!

Athletic world was no better. Apparently it was a Power Pad game. But even when I got the virtual Power Pad configured, I still couldn't play it. So I just watched the demos. And boy I am glad I didn't play the game. The athlete fucking sucks! 720 Degrees was the next game. A skateboarding simulator. A very mediocre one at best. At least the minigames... or... the first minigame I played was decent. Though the ramp one was confusing to all hell. And even when I did figure it out, apparently I got no reward for it. I guess I played it wrong. Also, don't run into any people in the lobby area. That's a horrible idea. KlashBall was up next. Also known as, futuristic Soccer. My team was down 4-2 with less than a minute to go. But then I clutched up and tied it. To overtime we go. And this was a rare occasion where I kept playing after the 5 minutes. Admittedly I was actually enjoying this game. Which never fucking happens. Sadly we lost 7-6 in overtime. Ah well. It was still a fun game!

The last game of the night was James Bond Jr. A young kid with a gun. Going on... a bland adventure. Jumping around through a sewer, realizing you're not going the right way, bouncing on water because that's physically possible, finding rocket ships, not playing the game any more, ending the stream, not putting in any more words in this blog post.
