Notes: Action game based on the legendary cartoon show. You control either Ren or Stimpy on their quest to collect cash by entering their television. Gameplay consists of different quests based on episodes from the series. Game starts out nicely and then gets very difficult by the end. Takes a lot of time to beat, but is probably my favorite game from this company, even though it isn’t their best.
Notes: The first game of its type for the NES. You take on different enemies on the street. Doesn’t play too bad at first, but gets pretty annoying on the final level when you keep losing track of what doorways you need to enter. Controls are also weak, as only jump kicks seem to be effective enough to keep you from getting hit too much.
Notes: This game had potential, but really doesn’t make the grade. You task is to take out a group of terrorists using your strike team. Great concept, but the process to complete your task is so basic that the game gets pretty boring. A little more variety and unpredictability would have helped. The terrorists you face in this game are downright MR.
Notes: This could have been an excellent boxing that game that rivaled even “Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!!,” but it ends up falling short because the computer progressively becomes impossible to defeat. You can increase your power and throw super punches, but the difficulty is where this fails. I once got so pissed I used the Game Genie to make me invincible, or so I thought, the computer actually adjusted itself to equal my ridiculous stats! It’s okay though, it’s hilarious to watch the trainers give the boxers head between rounds (no joke, it seriously looks like this).
