I've been going through old TV lists to see what I missed or want to watch again. A lot of the kids shows I used to watch aren't very interesting to me now, but a few are, especially the ones I never saw before. I'm especially interested in the Gary Anderson marionette shows and a similar Japanese one called Star Fleet from the 80s.
I played the original Pac-Man CE within the Namco Museum and the DX one, I believe, within the Pac-Man Museum + this week.
Yeah, it's always in the back of my mind when shopping.
It's quite a surprise after playing Galaxian and Galaga, where you're fixed to the bottom of the screen, to suddenly be able to roam. Weird to think that that was something new back then.
Oh, it's on Namco Museum Archives vol. 2.
What's the deal with the DX version of Pac-Man CE? How is it different?
I just like capturing the aliens and fighting with a ton of bullets. It doesn't last long though as enemies cycle on and off screen and destroy your ships.
I'm still trying to get to grips with Solaris. I keep playing it, but it hasn't sold me on it yet. I think I just need to learn how to play it better.
I've upgraded weapons but I haven't seen a new map yet. I guess I got to play more and level up these characters.
I played it on Activision Anthology a while back after you mentioned it. Then I bought a cartridge the other week, but I can't get it to work. I'll probably save it until I get a original console and see if it will play there. Possibly it's not compatible with the Retron 77, but it could be just broken inside. Darn it.
Rare Replay was a major reason why I got a Xbox One. I wish more developers would do a collection like that.
That was like the first area in Fantasy! Haha. I somehow got past that part. That game is too hard. I love games with multiple game styles in them.
SiniStar hungers, so yeah, I'd stay away. I just wish I could pick up those sinibombs more easily. Something about the controls makes it difficult.
Gyruss and Time Pilot are rising to the top of my favorite arcade games of the 80s. I didn't know that about the guy who developed them. Cool!
These are a lot of Mario vs DK games I didn't know about. I did know about the Game Boy game though as game journalist Jeremy Parish talked highly of it when I used to listen to him on podcasts. I've been keeping an eye out for it in game stores I go to.
