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 […]
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.

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.

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 […]
Another week, another modern game for the Sega Genesis. Yes, in what has become an oddly common sight, the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive is receiving yet another new game. The Cursed Knight is a platformer / shmup hybrid whose development is already completed, but the developers are seeking funding through Kickstarter to manufacture the […]
During the last couple of years, the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive indie scene grew exponentially with more and more developers and small studios using the console as a base platform for their next title. Now this trend continues yet again, as Neofid Studios announced Astebros, an action roguelite spin-off to their 2021 release, Demons […]
Metal Dragon is yet another new game for the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, this time courtesy of the indie Spanish MSX developer, Kai Magazine. This is their time developing a game for the Genesis, though Metal Dragon did originally launch for the MSX 2 with this being a port of that title for Sega’s […]
