Review #1281 – Super Valis IV (Super NES)

Imagine calling yourself Super and not quite living up to the moniker. That’s Super Valis IV in a nutshell… but is it a genuinely bad game or is it just a matter of tarnished reputations? A good question that this video does not answer, but it does bring this journey through the Valis series to a close.

Hey, you know what? I thoroughly enjoyed the trip through that series and was happy to explore most of the nook and crannies of that series. Maybe some day, I’ll stomach up the effort to go through the Valis computer games and turn those into videos, but that’s for much later down the road when I feel like doing MSX videos again.

Review #1245 – Wayne Gretzky And The NHLPA All-Stars (Super NES)

Back in the 90s, during the height of his career, Wayne Gretzky played in Pac Land and was made honorary Pac-Man for the day… thus this fits whatever Pac theme we’ve inadvertently followed here.

But yeah, this was a quick one that I wanted to get out of the way for a while and this seemed like the perfect spot to slot it in before we get to the heavy stuff.

Next week, we return to the world of widescreen… save for one or two diversions along the way.

Review #1244 – Pac-In-Time (Super NES)

From bumbling hero to shorty, stubby character… is that a good thing for the ol’ Puck Man?

Before anyone decides on dibs, Friday’s review isn’t Shadow Labyrinth; I don’t have the game. And it’s also not a Pac-Man game unless I somehow get that 7800 Double Feature this week rather than having to wait until December.

From there, it’s back to the “spooky” stuff before the week long marathon of… stuff.

Review #1243 – Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures (Super NES)

Going up a little later than usual, but still… be afraid that Pac-Man 2 is a thing around these parts again.

Review #1240 – Nickelodeon GUTS (Super NES)

Do you have it? ‘Cuz I sure don’t.

For those keeping count, this is the 100th video review done this year. And to celebrate the occasion, we have a rush job video that I was going to save for a rainy day, but alas, I had an opening and most of the other stuff isn’t ready.

For what it’s worth, the Halloween Week is planned out and somewhat ready to go.
