Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise (Switch - Rising Star Game - 2020 - FRA) Once again, I found this in a bargain bin and took it, even though I heard it had technical issues. The first game in the serie had quite a reputation for being weird and vaguely inspired by Lynch’s work, so I bought it too on the eShop. My goal here is to finish the first installment before playing its sequel. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #deadlypremonition #deadlypremonition2 #risingstargame https://www.instagram.com/p/CnfFep2oJMY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Trials of Mana (Switch - Square Enix - 2020 - FRA) I still have to complete the original one on SNES before starting this one… Or should I jump straight into it? ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #square #squareenix #trialofmana #seikendensetsu https://www.instagram.com/p/CncDolKI7Aa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy (Switch - SNK - 2018 - FRA) I had mixed feelings about this game. In one hand I wanted to try this new fighting game, and one the other hand I am more than reserved about female character representation here. But when I saw multiple copies of this game lying in the bargain bin, I didn’t have a second thought and bought it. Was it wrong? ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #snk #heroines #kof https://www.instagram.com/p/CnZ3JqNoCJ6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Mario + The Lapins Crétins: Kingdom Battle (Switch - Ubisoft - 2017 - FRA) Got it to get prepared for Sparks of Hope, but haven’t still took the time to even boot the game. The sad routine of a backlog game. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #ubisoft #mario #lapinscretins #kingdombattle https://www.instagram.com/p/CnFx-mGI9ji/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection (Switch - Konami - 2022 - FRA) I’ve never been a fan of the turtles. I guess I was already too old for that when it came out in France, or so I thought: it looked and sounded so silly. Out of the marketing barrage that flooded us back then, it was impossible to ignore the video games adaptations… They were everywhere! Most of my friends got one game or another, so I could try them for myself without buying one. And you know what? Most of them were pretty good, and not the typical cash grab that I would expect from it. Tournament Fighters on SNES is even one of my favorite game on the console! This collection got the major games from the arcade/8/16 bits and it’s pretty neat to have them all in one single package, especially when you see the price of their original releases nowadays. A great deal, even without the nostalgia attached.. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #konami #tmnt #teenagemutantninjaturtles #snes #nes https://www.instagram.com/p/CnALNIeIDJu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Neo Geo Pocket Color Selection Vol.1 (Switch - SNK - 2020 - EUR) 🌟 By now you should know that I’m a huge Neo Geo Pocket fan, and this collection is a blessing: flawless selection of 10 games, smooth emulation and great features. SNK Versus Capcom is included alongside the full range of NGPC’s fighting games, plus some of the best non fighting games like Dark Arms, which wasn’t already sold separately on the eShop. Sure, there could have been an online mode, or some early black and white games, like KoF R-1, as a bonus… Nevermind, this collection is kind of a dream come true for me, that’s why I bought the collector edition. Well… both SNK and Capcom collector editions to be precise. That is the way of a true NGPC fan. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #snk #pixnlove #ngpc #neogeopocketcolor #capcom #motm #kof https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm9-VmQIzeX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Disney Classic Games Collection (Switch - Digital Eclipse - 2019 - FRA) I’m a sucker for retro games collections on modern consoles. I had my eyes on this title for quite some time, but I thought it might be a bit expensive for so few content… and so I waited for a price drop. This collection got more content instead, including the SNES version of Aladdin, which is the best one: this time it was worth it! Plus all the extra content and bonus are neat. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #disney #collection #aladdin #lionking #junglebook https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm6lV8JI3jR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition (Switch - Koei Tecmo - 2018 - FRA) It sometimes is a curse to be a Zelda games collector: it means you have to get every game in the franchise, even if they are not that good, and even if it’s the third time you buy it. But I guess this Switch version really is the definitive edition, since it has all the DLC content spread across the WiiU and 3DS versions and then some. And when you know the initial release already have hours and hours of grinding, you can literally spend a whole playing just this game. But who would do that? ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #zelda #link #hyrulewarriors #koeitecmo #teamninja https://www.instagram.com/p/CmzYFudI4fg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

GoldenEye - Au Service du Mal (GameCube - Electronic Arts - 2004 - FAH) Back when I was working at EA in the early 2000’s, I heard rumors about the company getting GoldenEye’s rights. The original N64 game had (and still have) a cult following and I thought it was a clever move to port such an iconic title to the then current gen. And I remember everyone being disappointed by what came out of it: a pretty standard FPS with fun features but nothing memorable. No one was fooled by the game’s name intentional confusion though, and soon enough, no one cared about this GoldenEye. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #gamecube #ea #electronicarts #goldeneye https://www.instagram.com/p/CmuLDrroEt_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Resident Evil: Code: Veronica (Dreamcast - Capcom - 2000 - PAL) While Code: Veronica might not be my favorite episode, it still is a good game but I never really made a second run after beaten it for the first time. I played the GameCube version, Code: Veronica X, which is not exactly the same as this one. Hence the fact that I had to get it, and I did as soon as I’ve found one for cheap. A piece of video games history I’m glad to own now. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #sega #dreamcast #katana #capcom #biohazard #residentevil #codeveronica https://www.instagram.com/p/CmrhRSvIQSV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Les Chevaliers du Zodiaque: La Légende d’Or (NES - Bandai - 1988 - FRA) We were blessed with tons of animes on the French broadcast TV back in the 80’s, and Bandai thought it was a good idea to localize some early NES games adaptations. Knights of the Zodiac is sadly a mediocre JRPG, with heavy grinding and unbalanced gameplay. But worst of all, it was boring and frustrating: why not make a more straightforward action game? All I wanted was to blast my way through waves of ennemies. At least the box art is neat. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #nes #nesgames #saintseiya #knightsofthezodiac #seiya #bandai https://www.instagram.com/p/CmoRkoVoy72/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Garō Densetsu Special (Super Nintendo - Takara - 1995 - JPN) Lately, I’ve been looking for SNK’s fighting games adaptations on Super Nintendo. But given the fact that the European versions are slower, I exceptionally am looking for the Japanese versions. Fatal Fury Special is notoriously downgraded in the PAL version, having less memory and missing characters, because… reasons. Anyway, it’s a decent conversion of a great game. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #supernintendo #superfamicom #snes #eshop #ds #fatalfury #garoudensetsu #special #snk https://www.instagram.com/p/CRpLfmYH2U_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Starlink: Battle for Atlas (Nintendo Switch - Ubisoft - 2018 - EUR) Starlink is one of those « toys to life » kind of games where you can unlock various content via NFC toys. I got my starter pack thanks to massive bargains in store, due to the game’s not so massive success. And it was the StarFox extra content that got me sold. I try since to gather more Starlink toys at low price in order to complete my set. The game itself is somewhat fun but quite repetitive. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #eshop #joycon #starlink #starfox #nfc https://www.instagram.com/p/CVkIQ1goQor/?utm_medium=tumblr

Mega Man 11 (Switch - Capcom - 2018 - USA) I´m a huge Mega Man fan and I was quite disappointed that the game wouldn’t come out on cartridge in Europe. I don’t like to mix different regions in my collection, but I’m ready to do anything for my beloved blue bomber. So this is the American version of the game, and you couldn’t really tell the difference at first glance, so I am relieved. There are several games that are only available online for Europe that have true releases in the US, like the old Resident Evil and such. I would gladly get them but they are a bit pricy out there. Anyway, Mega Man 11 is a nice installment, maybe on the short side. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #switch #nintendoswitch #eshop #joycon #megaman #megaman11 #rockman #capcom https://www.instagram.com/p/CVsQ3VBI_8i/?utm_medium=tumblr

New Super Luigi U (Wii U - Nintendo - 2013 - FRA) I was curious about this pseudo sequel to a game I liked, so I bought it. It also was supposed to be a limited release, so I had to hurry, even if it’s pretty easy to find copies of it nowadays. The time limit is a great idea and the new playable character Nabbit is really fun, especially for newcomers. The thing is I was kind of already overdosed with NSMBU, so I kept this game for later... which is still yet to come. Typical. ____________________ #gamesarchive #videogames #games #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaming #collection #vintage #retrocollection #gamingmemories #retrocollectibles #videogames #video #arcade #pixel #pixels #console #japan #oldgames #gameroom #recalbox #nintendo #wiiu #eshop #miiverse #gamepad #eshop #mario #luigi #newsuperluigiu #nsmbu https://www.instagram.com/p/CMgrkhOnE2O/?igshid=1apy9301g86tp
