Classic games come boop-boop-booping their way onto DSiWare.
If you have fond memories of lazy Saturdays taking turns with a friend’s Game & Watch, the possibilities for recreating those experiences have been pretty sparse in the last decade. Today, the primary way to get your hands on LCD-style games is through Nintendo’s own Game & Watch collections for the DS and, strangely, in this summer’s Deadlight on XBLA. Outside of those cases, though, the LCD game is essentially dead. Or so it seemed, until Retro Pocket swooped onto DSiWare and packed several Saturday afternoons’ worth of LCD-style games into a package that will have some peering over the top of their sunglasses to take in something so rad.
Available from the Nintendo 3DS eShop on October 4.
Available now as an eShop title on the Nintendo 3DS for $5.99.
Portability, accessibility and affordability do not excuse mediocrity.
I’ve read countless reviews that contained statements like “It’s good for a mobile game” or “It’s a decent downloadable title.” I don’t agree with this conceit. Games should stand on their own merits regardless of platform or method of publication, and Zombie Slayer Diox clearly does not.
It’s a shame these visuals were squandered on such a shallow game.
Given the touch screen of the 3DS, it’s no surprise that iOS game, Samurai Sword Destiny has made its way to the Nintendo eShop. What’s also unsurprising is just how shallow the experience is, given Destiny’s original home. With a combination of two level types, players will find themselves either slashing arrows and avoiding boulders during forced progression, or dispatching a variety of foes by continuously slashing back and forth until all enemies are defeated. It’s a mindless timewaster that doesn’t command its price.
