Reviewing Every NES Game Part Two of Who Knows How Many

 I now have to at least get past Air Fortress so I can tell osg to SHOVE IT. I will do it easily because talking about this STUPID HORSESHIT is what I like to do. I have been doing it for over twenty years now. It’s a pretty good place to get my thoughts in on EVERY NES game no matter what they are. My thoughts are my own and if you want to agree or disagree do it politely, unlike portnoyd the stupid jerk who never does anything politely. He probably proudly goes into churches and farts as loud as he can and leaves. He is a JERL.

Well, we already got to one of the games that I were making a bottom 50 list of games on the NES I would put this one on there (sorry OSG) I really very much do not like this game in the slightest. It is ugly, it is slow, the controls are wonky to do the simplest shit. This game is just basically Great Value Castlevania, but even then Great Value food still probably tastes better than this game would. The graphics are fine and the music isn’t all that bad either it’s just everything else that really hampers my fun and enjoyment of this game. Too bad, it could have been something enjoyable.

Here is a pretty unique little game that I personally enjoy quite a bit. It involves a Boy and his blob… A squishy little guy from the planet Blobolonia. The planet has been taken over and it’s up to A Boy and His Blob to save the day! The Boy can use several different kinds of jelly beans to turn the Blob into all kinds of different things. You have to find treasures and find your way through all kinds of puzzles and stop the mean Blob jerk from winning the game. The games graphics are weird. They look very Atari-y, which makes sense because David Crane was born from an Atari, yet weirdly updated. I kinda love them. It’s weird to see updated Atari graphics on a NES. The boy is a goofy lookin stick figure and I want to give a hug to the Blob. The music is very memorable and catchy, pretty simple but hey nothing wrong with being simple when it’s still very well done ya know? Anyway I like this game and I think it’s fun to play.

This game fucking RULES. It’s one of THE best shumps on the NES, up there with Life Force and Gun Nac. It’s a lot like Life Force because you go from overhead stages to Gradius like stages? Yeah let’s go with that. You have to fight all kinds of gross weird looking monsters to save something or someone. I actually think you get eaten and the person you have to save is yourself from becoming poop! So go on and turn the NES on and help this guy not become alien feces! Anyway the graphics are very memorable, kinda cartoony but it helps keep them different enough from Life Force. The music is fucking AWESOME and anyone who disagrees is poopy. Natsume is one of the best publishers ever and every game they make is both cool and good.

I see this game a lot like a bad movie. It’s inept and ugly and really rushed. It was not worth 1 dollar let alone the 200 they wanted for it at retail. However I also kind a love it. Like everything about this game is so ineptly done that it’s fucking hilarious. A friend and I make fun of this game all the time. It’s a chore to play any of the games on this cartridge for any amount of time. the controls, movement of the characters, the fact everything is so slow all works against it as a playable NES game. But as something to laugh at for being so bad it works wonders. It’s a gold mine for any saucy Angry Video Game Youtuber guy that was around in like 2006 to 2011. I think they all took this game apart. It’s kind of amazing in its own way. Never actually play it but do turn on one of the games and just piss yourself laughing. Also who can say no to a game that just awkwardly and randomly shoves It Takes Two by Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock into the title screen? I bet they didn’t get permission either lol.

This game is pretty decent. Which is a rarity coming from Ocean. I dislike Ocean more than most NES fans dislike say LJN or THQ. I would rather play several games made by LJN or THQ over the majority of Ocean games. I like one other Ocean game on the NES. Anyway this was based around the 1991 movie, which I loved. Maybe that’s why I have an affinity for this game. I don’t know. It’s one of those games where you have to find keys and clues and all kindsa shit to be able to explore other areas of the Addams Family house. The controls are pretty fucking wonky and annoying and the hit detection is pretty shit too but I still enjoy this one to a degree. I dunno.

Another five games down. I will do this so I can stick it in your craw JOUST. STICK ALL 800 GAMES IN YOUR CRAW. I don’t even know what a craw is but YOURS IS GONNA GET STUCK WITH 800 NES GAMES SOON ENOUGH BOY!

Good games: 5
