So I was playing this Super Famicom (Super Nintendo) game called Smart Ball (ジェリーボーイ Jerry Boy) which is a 2D platformer that was developed by System Sacom and Game Freak before they developed Pokemon and published by Epic/Sony Records for the Japanese version and Sony Imagesoft for the US version, the game was released on September 13, 1991 for the Japanese version and March 1992 for the US version. So I had this idea were Buddy from SuperKitties and Koppa from Shiren the Wanderer meeting Jerry from Jerry Boy, mostly because I think it would be really cute seeing Buddy and Koppa meeting Jerry.

Bram Stoker's Dracula (NES)

Developer: Probe    Publisher: Sony Imagesoft    Release: 09/93    Genre: Action As one of the biggest films of 1992 Bram Stoker’s Dracula had an insane marketing blitz that hit all corners. Naturally video games were a part of that process and every major (and not so major) platform received some version of an adaptation. While the 16-bit versions of Dracula received the lion’s share of…

** I had to mute so many portions of this game because of copyright issues.** Hook for the Sega CD: A Retro Review The Sega CD, known for its ambition to bring the power of CD-ROM to the gaming industry, hosted a variety of titles that sought to exploit its enhanced audio and visual capabilities. Among these games was "Hook," a title based on the 1991 film directed by Steven Spielberg. The game promised an adventure with the beloved Peter Pan character, but time has revealed limitations that cast a shadow on its memory. In this review, we will explore "Hook" for the Sega CD in detail, examining the developer's efforts, the game's presentation, and its gameplay, along with its narrative and the reception it received upon release. [gallery ids="168754,168753,168751"] Developer and Production "Hook" for the Sega CD was developed by Ukiyotei and published by Sony Imagesoft, a subsidiary of Sony that focused on video game publishing. The game followed the tale of the movie, tapping into the fantasy of Neverland and the battle against the notorious Captain Hook. Ukiyotei, not as well-known as giants like Konami or Capcom, had a challenge ahead of them: to create a game that lived up to the cinematic experience. Graphics and Music At the time, "Hook" was praised for its beautiful graphics. The Sega CD allowed for a richer palette and more detailed sprites than its cartridge-based counterparts. The characters were recognizable, and the backgrounds captured the whimsical yet perilous world of Neverland, from lush forests to the foreboding pirate ship. The music of "Hook" was a highlight, utilizing the Sega CD's ability to stream CD-quality audio. It featured compositions that were inspired by John Williams' iconic score, and its orchestral sound was a treat for the ears. The soundtrack successfully conveyed the magic and tension of Peter Pan's journey. [gallery ids="168749,168755,168752"] Listen to Hook's Soundtrack Gameplay and Mechanics "Hook" is a side-scrolling platformer where players take on the role of Peter Pan as he attempts to rescue his children from the clutches of Captain Hook. The gameplay involves running, jumping, and sword fighting through various levels filled with pirates and other dangers. One of the key elements that differentiated "Hook" on the Sega CD from other platforms was the inclusion of voice-acted cutscenes. These scenes aimed to flesh out the story and provide a cinematic feel. However, the game suffered from clunky controls and repetitive gameplay, which could not be overlooked by the voice acting or the narrative attempts. Story and Narrative The story of "Hook" follows the film's plot closely, with Peter Pan, now an adult, returning to Neverland to save his children. The game's narrative was presented through the aforementioned cutscenes, which were a novelty at the time. Despite these efforts, the story was sometimes hard to follow due to the limited storytelling capabilities of games from that era. Reception and Reactions When "Hook" was released, it generated mixed reactions. Some players were enchanted by its music and the novelty of playing a movie-based game, while others were frustrated by its gameplay flaws. "I remember being captivated by the music and the animations, but even as a kid, I felt something was off. The controls were stiff, and I never quite felt like the hero Peter Pan was supposed to be," recalls Michael Townsend, a member of the "Retro Replay" community. Facts About "Hook" for Sega CD "Hook" was one of the few games that featured full-motion video cutscenes on the Sega CD, pushing the limits of the hardware. The game's music, while not composed by John Williams, was designed to closely mimic the film's original score. Unlike its SNES and Genesis counterparts, the Sega CD version of "Hook" featured voice acting, which was a significant addition at the time. "Hook" for the Sega CD is considered rare and has become a collectible item among retro gaming enthusiasts.

Replay Value Despite its charm, "Hook" for Sega CD struggles with replay value. The gameplay mechanics and level design do not hold up well against modern standards, making it a title more appreciated for its nostalgia than for its lasting playability. Final Thoughts In retrospect, "Hook" for the Sega CD is a game that promised much but was hindered by the limitations of its time. The developers' ambition to deliver a cinematic gaming experience was evident, but the technology could not support their vision fully. With its enchanting soundtrack and an earnest attempt at storytelling, "Hook" remains a curious piece of gaming history—a reminder of the era's growing pains as the industry explored the possibilities of CD-ROM technology. It's a game that serves as a snapshot of the early 90s gaming culture, capturing the excitement and experimentation of the time.

Console Sports Games of 1994 - ESPN NBA Hangtime '95

Another ESPN licenced title this time ESPN NBA Hangtime '95 (Not Hangout) a sports game based around Basketball that was released for the Sega CD in 1994 in the US and Canada.

While having the same publisher as both ESPN Baseball Tonight and ESPN National Hockey Night in Sony Imagesoft, it does not have the same developed Park Place Productions rather this title was developed in house by Sony Imagesoft.

Like many Basketball titles of the mid 90s ESPN NBA Hangtime '95 opts for more of an arcade basketball game with matches 2v2 similar to NBA Jam.
