It’s the first of many Antstream-fueled review fodder uploads and if nothing else, I’ll be mining this shit for all its worth… whatever that ends up entailing in the long run, that is.
Anyway, you’ve probably seen sample video of this thing last week via Extra Bits. Now here’s the review portion of the program.
Wait just a minute, King. This isn’t Portrait Of Ruin. What the hell is this?
Well, I wish that I could say that it’s a swerve and you all fell for it, but no, technical issues prompted me to put the kibosh on the Dominus leftovers and replace them with some dirty and quick. Hence, Part 1 of this endeavor, which covers every wannabe angry reviewer’s low-hanging fruit once they saw ericmansuper’s original video from 19 years ago… I could have held this off for another year and marked as a 20th anniversary celebration, but no, VEGAS has to take a fart during the editing process. Thanks, Shanoa.
Anyway, this one’s a late night special. Another one’s coming later today.
You know, we haven’t touched a Mega Man game or an NES ROM Hack in a good long while… let’s kill two birds with one stone.
(Yes, we’re back to 4:3 for this one since I played this on an Everdrive via FC Twin… or is it the other way around? Who knows? Who cares? We’ll up the quality next time… or whenever I feel like it… yeah, that’s it… next.)
A week of Yoshi is ruined by a belated Kirby episode… but regardless, it’s a week of Yoshi-themed puzzle games on your NES, Game Boy… and even SNES gets a run at it… and then on Saturday, we’ll do something or other, I don’t know.
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.
