Piko Interactive Collection 2 Evercade Review

 Piko Interactive Collection 2 Evercade Review     Beastball is a decent football game with horrible music and some good old fashioned violence. 7/10     Eliminator Boat Duel is a fantastic racing game that's pretty hard. 9/10     Football Madness is the first PS1 game on Evercade and it's a pretty fun soccer game. It has some power-ups so that it isn't boring. 8/10     Full Throttle: All-American Racing is a boring racing game, but hey, at least it has good music. 6.5/10     Hoops Shut Up and Jam is a pretty boring basketball game that came out the same year as NBA Jam, and it just isn't that good. 6/10     Hoops Shut Up and Jam 2 looks better than the first, but plays just as boringly. 6.5/10     Power Football is football with nothing special. 5/10     Racing Fever is a really good racing game with good graphics, good music, and it's just really fun to play. 9/10     Soccer Kid is a pretty ...

Jaleco Collection 1 Evercade Review

 Jaleco Collection 1 Evercade Review     Astyanax is a decent platformer that is really hard! 7/10     Bases Loaded is a decent baseball game with one voice line that actually sounds pretty good. 7/10     Brawl Brothers is a pretty good beat 'em up that's fun, pretty good looking, and has some good music. Also, it's the sequel to Rival Turf which is also in this collection. 8.5/10     City Connection is a great game where you're in a car and need to paint the ground of each level, it's pretty fun and very hard, only bad thing about this game is the music. 9/10     Earth Defense Force is a very hard, very fun shmup worth playing. 9.5/10     Operation Logic Bomb is a very fun top down shooter game that anyone who buys this collection needs to play. 10/10     Rival Turf is the prequel to Brawl Brothers and while not as good, it's still pretty great! Also, the cover art is up there with the worst of all time. 8/10 ...

Atari Lynx Collection 2 Evercade Review

 Atari Lynx Collection 2 Evercade Review          Blue Lightning is a great flight combat game on the Evercade that looks beautiful for an Atari Lynx game. 9/10     California games is a collection of four minigames, BMX is a decent biking game where you have to try flipping to get points, Surfing is the best minigame where you do flips while avoiding waves for points, Halfpipe is a decent little skating minigame where you do tricks for (surprise, surprise) points, Footbag is literally Hacky Sack and it's pretty fun. Also, this collection of minigames has pretty good music. 8.5/10      Checkered Flag is a pretty great racing game that's fast and looks gorgeous. 8.5/10     Chip's Challenge is the best puzzle game on the Evercade, I said a while ago that Magical Drop 2 was the best Evercade puzzle game, but after playing this, I know that Chip's Challenge is even better. 10/10     Electrocop is a decent action game...

Atari Lynx Collection 1 Evercade Review

 Atari Lynx Collection 1 Evercade Review          Awesome Golf is a golf game that's just too in depth for me, someone who's only played Mario Golf. ?/10     Basketbrawl just felt like a much worse version of Arch Rivals for the Atari 7800, but this Lynx version is even worse, it is so slow and boring. 4/10     Crystal Mines 2 is a very good puzzle game that has over 300 levels. 9/10     Cybervirus is the only FPS on the Evercade, and it's pretty great! 9/10     Dracula: The Undead is a point and click game, which is interesting for a Lynx game, but I couldn't get far due to how much I suck at this genre. ?/10     Gordo 106 is a decent platformer that isn't that special, but still fun to play for a couple minutes. 7/10     Ishido: The Way of the Stones is a game I can't review because I don't understand how to play Ishido. ?/10     Jimmy Connors Tennis is a decent tennis game, and the onl...

Oliver Twins Collection Evercade Review

 Oliver Twins Collection Evercade Review          Treasure Island Dizzy is the worst Dizzy game, you have one life, just one, and if you die, you have to start over the entire game. It's also the hardest Dizzy game because of just how many traps there are, it's really annoying. 4/10     Wonderland Dizzy is a much better Dizzy game and is better to start the series with since you can choose to have infinite lives. It's one of my favorite games in the series and the puzzles are very fun to solve. 9/10.     BMX Simulator is a hard simulator that you might like if you're a fan of BMX bikes or simulators, but to me it just isn't that fun. 5/10     Dizzy the Adventurer is another adventure game in the Dizzy series that's very fun to play, has great puzzles, and the graphics and sounds are both nice. 8.5/10     Dreamworld Pogie is a very good platformer that's one of the best games on this cartridge. 9.5/10     The...

Xeno Crisis and Tanglewood Evercade Review

 Xeno Crisis & Tanglewood Evercade Review          Tanglewood is a very good 2D puzzle platformer where you play as a cute little creature and you have to try to not be eaten by bigger, and stronger creatures. It's very fun, is gorgeous, and the music is just amazing. Tanglewood is seriously a great game and one of the best on the Evercade. Tanglewood is one of the best platformers on the Evercade and if you're a fan of the genre, you need to play it. 9.5/10     Xeno Crisis might be the best game on the Evercade. It's fast, arcade-y, crazy, fun with stunning visuals for a Genesis game, maybe the best music on the Evercade, it's challenging, but still fair, there are cheats if you're into that, and it is infinitely replayable. Tanglewood is a fantastic game, but Xeno Crisis blows it out of the water. Each and every level is fun and no matter how many times I replay them, they are still a blast to play. The boss fights too, are just amazing, hug...

Technos Collection 1 Evercade Review

 Technos Collection 1 Evercade Review          Crash n' the Boys Street Challenge is a confusing collection of five mini-games, all with different controls, that's just hard to play due to how confusing it is. At least it's funny. 6/10     Double Dragon is an arcade classic, but this version's not as good, it's still pretty fun, but not as great as the NES version of Double Dragon 2. 8/10     Double Dragon 2 is a fantastic port of the original that's just as good, and it is one of the best beat 'em ups on the NES. 9.5/10     Renegade was one of the first beat 'em up's ever made so I can excuse it being not as great as Double Dragon or other popular beat 'em up's, but it still shouldn't be played today. 5/10     River City Ransom is the best beat 'em up on the NES, one of the best beat 'em up's ever made, and it might be the best game Technos ever made. 10/10 (I'm very excited to play this game on the VS when that come...

Piko Interactive Collection 1 Evercade Review

 Piko Interactive Collection 1 Evercade Review          8 Eyes is a game I can't say anything about because I just don't understand how it works/where to go. ?/10     Ok, so I'm just going to say right here, I'm not going to review Brave Battle Saga, Canon, Drakkhen, Dragon View, and The Immortal because I hate older RPG's and with the time it would take to give a rating for those five games, I could probably make another Evercade review. I'll go back to reviewing games now.     Dorke & Ymp is a pretty great platformer with fluid, beautiful animation, good music, and is just fun to play. 8.5/10     Iron Commando is an insanely good beat 'em up that's very fun to play, has pretty great graphics, and the soundtrack is outstanding! 10/10     Jim Power is a very fun, very hard platformer that I recommend to experts of the genre. 9/10     Magic Girl is a pretty fun cute 'em up that has great music, pretty goo...

Mega Cat Studios Collection 1 Evercade Review

 Mega Cat Studios Collection 1 Evercade Review          Almost Hero is basically just a bad version of River City Ransom and it is so boring. 5/10     Creepy Brawlers is a clone of Punch-Out that's actually pretty good, but not as good as the classic. 7/10     Coffee Crisis is a pretty bland beat 'em up that tries really hard to be funny, but it fails and just makes the game worse. 4/10     Justice Duel is a pretty fun game that plays a lot like Joust, but with guns. Oh, and Merica too. 7/10     Log Jammers is a good mix of Breakout and something like Windjammers that ends up being pretty good. 8/10     Little Medusa is a great little puzzle game that I can recommend to fans of the Lolo games. 8.5/10     Multidude is a very fun Puzzle game that's creative (unlike half the games on this cartridge) and has some good graphics and music. 9/10     Old Towers is a stunningly beautiful puzzle ga...

Interplay Collection 2 Evercade Review

 Interplay Collection 2 Evercade Review          Clay Fighter 2 isn't as good of a fighter as the first game, but it's still pretty fun to play. 8/10     Claymates is an absolutely amazing platformer that has the great graphics of Clay Fighter, and is even more fun than Earthworm Jim. 9.5/10     Earthworm Jim 2 is a pretty good platformer, but it isn't as good as the first Earthworm Jim or Claymates. 8/10     Prehistorik Man is a decent platformer where you play as a caveman without anything making it special. If for some reason, you want to play a caveman platformer, just play Joe and Mac. 7/10     Rad Gravity is a weird, hard, and confusing platformer that I just can't recommend especially because of the better platformers on this collection. 4/10     The Brainies is a very fun and very hard puzzle game that's one of the better games on this cartridge. 9/10     The Interplay Collection 2, like th...

Namco Museum Collection 2 Evercade Review

 Namco Museum Collection 2 Evercade Review     Burning Force is a fantastic shmup that is beautiful, has great music, and the gameplay is great. This is a absolutely fantastic start to a great collection. 10/10     Dig Dug 2 is even better than the first and gets rid of my only complaint about the first game, there is now music when you aren't walking. 10/10     Dragon Spirit is another very fun shmup that, while not as good as Burning Force, is still an absolute blast to play. 9/10     Galaga is the sequel to Galaxian and this game is better in almost every single way. It's an arcade classic for a good reason, it's very fun, and it's hard to want to stop playing. 9/10     Pac-Attack is a pretty fun puzzle game that plays like Tetris, but with ghosts and Pac-Man. How it works is you need to make lines like in Tetris, but you can't do that with ghosts mixed in with blocks so you need to use Pac-Man's (Pac-Men?) to eat the ghost do th...

Atari Collection 2 Evercade Review

 Atari Collection 2 Evercade Review      Air Sea Battle is a little fun, but it looks like it would be a lot more enjoyable if it could be played multiplayer. 6.5/10     Asteroids is a classic and the 7800 version is definitely better than the 2600 version from Atari Collection 1. 9/10     Basketbrawl is a pretty boring basketball game, it's basketball with punching. That's it. It's basically just a worse version of Arch Rivals. 6/10     Bowling is surprisingly one of the best games on this cartridge, I have to recommend it, it's really fun! 9/10     Centipede is an amazing port of the arcade original and it's my favorite game on this cartridge. 10/10     Dark Chambers is boring adventure game that you shouldn't play, at least it's better than Adventure. 6/10     Demons to Diamonds is a little fun I guess. 6.5/10     Desert Falcon is a decent shmup with an isometric view that I can recommend to fan...

Interplay Collection 1 Evercade Review

 Interplay Collection 1 Evercade Review     Battle Chess is a game I can't say anything about because I have no idea how to play Chess. ?/10     Boogerman is maybe the weirdest platformer I've ever played, but it's pretty fun and it looks very nice. 8/10     Clayfighter is a great fighting game with an absolutely beautiful clay artstyle. 9/10     Earthworm Jim is another great platformer (better than Boogerman) that has a pretty great sense of humor, and has great graphics and music. 9/10     Incantation is once again a good platformer on this cartridge. It's my least favorite of the three, but it's still pretty fun. 7.5/10     Titan is a pretty good little puzzle game, but the sound effects are just terrible and it's better to play the game muted. 7.5/10     The Interplay Collection 1 is one of the worse collections on the Evercade, but it is still fun to play the games on it. The worst thing about the collectio...

Data East Collection 1 Evercade Review

  Data East Collection 1 Evercade Review     Bad Dudes just isn't fun, it's boring and ugly and you shouldn't play it. 4/10     Burnin' Rubber is pretty fun and it looks pretty nice for an NES game, also you can destroy cars with you car by jumping on them. 8.5/10     Burger Time is very fun, has a good difficulty level, and is a great version of the classic arcade game. 9/10     Two Crude Dudes is a very fun beat 'em up where you can pick up and throw almost everything in the game. 9/10     Fighters History is (as of writing) the best fighting game that's on the Evercade, it is very fun and I recommend it to all fans of the genre. 9/10     Joe & Mac 2 is yet another fantastic game on this fantastic cartridge that I have to recommend, plus it's one of the best platformers on the Evercade. 9/10     Karate Champ is just terrible, it is a boring fighting game with terrible controls. 3/10     Magical Dr...

Namco Museum Collection 1 Evercade Review

 Namco Museum Collection 1 Evercade Review      Battle Cars is a fantastic little racing game that has great controls, beautiful graphics, and is just fun to play. 8.5/10     Dig Dug is a classic arcade game that is still very fun to play, my only complaint is how there's only music when moving. 9/10     Galaxian is another classic arcade game that still holds up. It isn't as great as its sequel Galaga, but I still recommend playing it. 8/10     Libble Rabble takes a minute to get used to, but after that it is amazing and I can recommend it to everyone. 9/10     Mappy is yet another arcade classic that holds up after over 30 years. 9/10     Mappy Kids is a decent sequel to Mappy that is closer to being a platformer than whatever genre the first game would fit into. 8/10     Metal Marines looks very fun, but I just don't understand how to play it. I'm not going to give a rating for this game.     Pa...
