Notes: The sequel to “Contra.” Plays basically the same with some more detail and overhead levels added to the original style of play. Seems a bit easier to me, but I guess they’re basically the same. It’s a decent follow-up.
Notes: This could have been good. It looks like a larger version of “Super Sprint” in a way, but plays nearly as well as “Jovial Race.” Poor turning makes it difficult to get into, as well as the most annoying musical scores ever. It’s fun to upgrade and pick levels, but it takes time to adjust. Beware the sinister harlequin demon, grasping your money with a menacing, empty red gaze on the label.
Notes: If you enjoyed “Nintendo World Cup,” then you definitely need to pick this one up. It’s the only dodge ball title for the NES, which doesn’t sound like much, but this really plays well. Pick you team and take on your opponents in the great game of dodge ball. Uses the classic super deformed characters that you should be well accustomed to now.
Notes: In my opinion this is the only game that really utilized the abilities of the Power Glove correctly. It’s only one of a few titles that were released specifically for the accessory. Basically, it’s a puzzle/action title where you eliminate rows of blocks in the background with your floating hand. As you squeeze your fingers with the glove, the hand on the screen moves to catch the ball. It works really well, and is worth the effort to set up the ill-fated glove. The story behind the game is completely inane.
