7/16/2008 NES Open review
The NES is home to many golf carts, but only Nintendo's NES Open Tournament Golf features Mario and friends enjoying a quick round on the links when they aren't cleaing pipes or stomping Koopas. But if you look past the Mario influence, you may find an excellent golf title. Click here for a review to see if this game is par for the course.
Also the Links page is finally up and running again.
6/26/2008 Metroid review
Today's review takes a look at the third of Nintendo's 'Big 3' franchises, Metroid. This began the adventures of Samus Aran that manky gamers have followed for many years. But after nearly two decades of sequels and remakes, is the original still worth your time? Click here for a review.
5/27/2008 Nintendovision fixes
Not much of an update this week. Just wanted to try and plug some of the holes I've yet to fill since I moved over to the new host. I re-added two TV show articles to the Nintendovision section, Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Video Power season 1, complete with a bunch of nice screengrabs. I'll try to fix most of the missing sections in the near future.
5/19/2008 Wayne Gretzky Hockey review
It's a known fact that great sports figures don't always endores great sports games. One prime example of that notion is TH*Q's Wayne Gretzky Hockey. Gretzky may be the greatest hockey player ever, but sadly his name is found on one of the worst hockey titles ever. Click here for a review to see how bad this title is.

4/14/2008 Q*Bert review
Arcade legend Q*Bert may be known more for is controversal language than his looks, but he's also known for having a great arcade game in the day. Konami decided to bring the coin-op to the NES and it doesn't dissapoint. Click here for a review.
3/30/2008 Bases Loaded 3 review
With baseball season now underway, I'd though I'd take a look at Jaleco's Bases Loaded 3, the third entry in the long-running series. While it has some thigns going for it, it also has some issues that keep it out of the major leagues. Click here for a review to see why this game this game would have benefitted from more spring training.

3/05/2008 Ninja Gaiden III review
With most NES trilogies, the third game in the series is usually the best, such as Super Mario 3, Castlevania III and others. Tecmo's Ninja Gaiden III, on the other hand, proves that the third time isn't always the charms. Click here for a review to see why this game didn't save the best for last.
