Arby's used to do a pretty good job on social media of referencing video games. They even did something for the launch of Valkyria Chronicles 4. It's also worth noting that Sonic is actually owned by the same company that owns Arby's.

Not a BaD Decade - Super Mario Odyssey

This game is badass. Nintendo really hit it out of the park so hard with SMO and Breath of the Wild that I think the ball achieved escape velocity.

SNES Games I Love #9: Aladdin


Posted on 02/11/2020 at 01:03 AM | Filed Under Blogs

I was a SNES guy and not much into licensed games by that point (my SNES pleasures were Zelda, Metroid, Mortal Kombat II, and Final Fantasy VI) but I was surprised when I read how popular the Genesis game was on Wikipedia. Aladdin was apparently the third best-selling Genesis game of all time, behind two Sonic games.

This game sold half of what the Genesis version did, but it still managed to be Capcom's most successful non-Street Figjhter game on SNES. 

Captain N's Games of the Decade #22

One of my favorites of the decade. It was my 2014 GOTY. I bought it day one. 

Games, There's Just Too Many - BaD the Second

Currently playing TMS and Switcher 3. Ni no Kuni is awesome and I'm glad it got a re-release.

Adding Bluetooth to your Switch - BaD the First

I need a Bluetooth dongle. I have a set of Bluetooth speakers I got as a Christmas present that I want to connect my Switch to.

I've never really played with Minecraft. The single biggest game of the past decade and I haven't played it. Weird, huh?

Not a BaD Decade - Final Fantasy IX

I replayed this on the Switch recently.

My original PS1 copy of FFIX was autographed by Nobuo Uematsu at Distant Worlds in Omaha.

Captain N's Games of the Decade #29

Definitely looked pretty. Nothing like a racing game for showing off a platform's graphics. I remember when Virtua Racing, Ridge Racer, Daytona USA and even Gran Turismo were used to show off new consoles.

I remember the whole Online Pass BS. I wrote a long blog denouncing the Online Passes on 1UP. It was by far my most-read and most-commented blog. It got around ten thousand reads and almost 200 comments if I remember correctly, and after that the number of people who looked at my page went from 2-3 a day on a good day to hundreds a day.

Every time I think EA has reached Peak Tw@, they keep proving me wrong with their bashing single-player games, always online, and the whole games-as-a-service thing. I really wish Sega had sabotaged Madden 92 at CES all those years ago.

Not a BaD Decade - Tales of Graces f


Posted on 02/02/2020 at 02:49 PM | Filed Under Blogs

I got Graces when it came out. It wasn't as good as Vesperia, but it wasn't bad either. I did want to support the series because it had been a few years since Vesperia and a lot of games had been skipped int he meantime. 

It was the transition between old-style Tales and modern Tales (the last release before it, Hearts, was an older style Tales with a world map). It definitely was lower budget compared to Vesperia, but I notice that the Team Destiny games tended to be a little skimpier and lower-budget than the Team Symphonia games.
