Review #1220 – Faxanadu (NES)

We’re finally here, aren’t we?

This review was actually pretty tough to get through because Faxanadu was the last game I played with Sacha by my side a few days before she finally passed. So, there is an emotional hurdle that needed to be overcome in order to get through this thing, which is why this opens with the “For Sacha” signature that was a thing for most of my 2024 videos. This one is for her… and I still miss her.

Review #1089 – Platoon (NES)

To call this “fourteen years in the making” is a bit of a stretch, but that’s one long-standing name off the bucket list of mediocrity that has lasted longer than memory serves. Also, you’ll note that there’s no doggy tag in the corner of the video. No doggy – living or not – wishes to be associated with this thing.
