(2025 Update: Replaced the old Youtube embed with a slightly less old Dailymotion embed that was eventually replaced with a newer than new Youtube upload that I’m shocked made it through in one piece. Featuring a new title card and some considerable edits here and there, including the restoration of an old intro from when this review was originally intended as a Halloween upload. Despite these changes, it’s still the same old review that is outdated and superseded by a new one in 2012.)

Review #014 – Pole Position (Atari 2600)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
An alleged video review of Pole Position somehow degenerates into a rant about fences.
Review #013 – Pole Position II (Atari 7800)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
When Nintendo brought their Famicom to America, they packaged it with Super Mario Bros. When Atari brought their 7800 system out of mothballs a year later, they packaged it with Pole Position II… an arcade title from 1982… guess which system fared better.
Review #012 – Urban Champion (NES)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
A video review of Urban Champion, a NES title released during the heydays of the console and probably not worth your time.
Review #011 – Pac-Man (Atari 2600)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
Pac-Man on Atari 2600… the infamous port that supposedly killed an industry… not sure if I’d go that far, but humor the humans who still hold on to this belief.
Review #010 – Tron: Deadly Discs (Atari 2600)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
Finally get to review a childhood favorite of mine. Even though I barely remember seeing the movie it’s based on. Oh well.
Review #09 – Super Mario Land (Game Boy)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
The first Mario on Game Boy… a trendsetter or just following what came before?
Review #08 – Realsports BOXING (Atari 2600)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
Macho wishes that Hogan would be a man now.
Review #07 – Raiden Trad (Super NES)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
Another video review upload for nobody in particular… an SNES port of an arcade shooting classic… or so I’m told.
Review #06 – Adventures In The Magic Kingdom (NES)
(2025 Update: New video upload with new title card and slight edits.)
Another review contest submission entry… although this uploaded version removes some of the bits that were added strictly for the contest, such as an ad for a pub that may or may not still be around these days.
