It’s good to see we live in an age where even bootleg games get some love, especially when they’re QUALITY bootlegs. Castlevania Reincarnation is a Chinese-developed bootleg entry into Konami’s franchise that was launched in the early 2000s for Java Phones. Inspired by Symphony of the Night and Aria of Sorrow, the game was sold […]
The gaming industry is no stranger to controversies, but while Mortal Kombat, Night Trap and DOOM are well worn territory, it’s not often we hear about small localized issues or controvseries from countries like Brazil, Mexico, Spain or Portugal. It’s because of that that St1ka (that’s me) created a video listing 17 Videogame Controversies that […]
The Sega Genesis / Mega Drive has one of the most active indie development scenes out of any retro system and today, GGS Studio Creation and Broke Studio are launching a Kickstarter campaign for their newest title, The Cursed Legacy. You can get a digital copy for about $12, a complete in box version for […]
As gaming media inevitably progresses and moves forward, we often forget our origins and how gaming reached its current point and I feel one of those casualties was the Wizardry series. Launched in the same year as Ultima, the Wizardry games co-created the RPG videogame genre as we know it today, without it, today we […]
Bootleg retro games are often the target of derision and mockery on youtube, but that seems to happen only because no one is taking the time to showcase the games that are actually good. It’s because of that that St1ka (that’s me) created a video listing 20 Bootleg games that are actually good and have […]
It’s no secret that the Sega Genesis has been receiving a slew of modern releases these past few years, but the NES is no slouch either. Perhaps the best example of how strong the NES homebrew dev scene is right now, can be seen in St1ka’s (that’s me) latest video. In this video I analyze […]
Retro Gaming is a funny thing, we’ve seen romhacks, homebrews, FPGAs and emulators, so you’d think we’d have exhausted all options by now. Turns out that’s not the case, because a new scene cropped up right under our noses: HD Graphics packs for NES games. That is to say, you take the original NES rom, […]
When most people think of Nights Into Dreams, most to mention the Sega Saturn original or the Wii sequel. But there’s actually a surprisingly high number of sequels, ports and spin-offs that most never heard of. In his latest video, St1ka (that’s me), along with Nick from RetroBreak talk about a total of 8 obscure […]
In today’s segment for “develpments I did not expect”, it seems the modern anime industry has fallen in love with classic SEGA, or at the very least, it has according to St1ka (that’s me). Long story short, modern anime shows have been showing cameos of classic SEGA consoles left and right during the last few […]
2022 turned out to be an exciting year for Game Boy Color and fighting game fans, as three titles for the system were dumped a few weeks ago, making them playable and widely available for the first time ever in roughly 20 years. These are three bootleg SNK Fighting games developed in the early 2000s […]
