The sequel to Nemesis on Game Boy deploys an interstellar assault on the senses that can only happen on Game Boy… and also Nintendo Switch, apparently.
I had concerned going the NSO route because the game is on there, but decided to go old-school instead. And yes, the game’s also on Game Boy Color on one of the Konami GB Collections… it’s still Game Boy, though.
It’s Gradius… er, I mean, Nemesis for Game Boy from Konami, er, I mean, ULTRA Games!
Did I lose anyone? Good.
So this would be the time where I would load up on a bunch of wrestling game reviews on the road to Wrestlemania, but since the road to Wrestlemania seems to have more potholes than the island of Montreal at the moment, I’ve decided that we’re going to cover a couple Gradius games, starting with this Japan-only PC Engine version and then following up with the two Game Boy entries, Nemesis and Interstellar Assault.
In any event, Gradius is a fun one to revisit. There’s a Gradius Origins collection that you should check out for arcade fun… and also Salamander III is quite the banger.
