Super Smash Bros. 3D on 3DS Preview

Here comes a new Challenger!  Yes the demo for Super Smash Bros. 3D is out on the 3DS and I was able to get some early access on it last week and I must say that I am obsessed.  As a fan of the series since the first Super Smash Bros. on N64 I had quite a few expectations for the new game on my favorite handheld of all time.  While playing I wanted to take a close look at the playable characters in the demo, the controls, the graphics, the soundtrack, and the layout of the menus.  I was extremely satisfied with a lot of these and I will explain more about it.

Top 15 Other Dreamcast Games - Day 1

This list is different than the majority of Dreamcast Top Games lists.  By "Other" I am picking games that do not normally make it into a standard list of must have games for the system.  That means you won't see Skies of Arcadia, Shenmue, Unreal Tournament, Marvel vs Capcom 2, Sonic Adventure, Soul Calibur or any of those high rated games.  These are games that people easily overlook or forgotten that helped made the Dreamcast such a wonderful little machine.  We are going to be starting the list of with some strong contenders to give you an idea of the versatility of the Dreamcast's library. We start off with lucky number 15.

GVN's Dreamcast US release 15th Anniversary. The Other Top 15 games.

The Dreamcast refuses to die.  Indie developers continue to support the long abandoned system after Sega's exiting the console race. However I will be doing a top games list that will not include the "Essential" games for the Dreamcast which make the top of everyone else's lists.  That's right, you won't find any mention of Sonic, Skies of Arcadia, Shenmue, Marvel vs Capcom and the like on this list.  We are celebrating the games that people seem to constantly forget, the "Lost Gems" of the Dreamcast.  So for 3 Days straight there will be 5 games posted per day to celebrate the Dreamcast's 15 US Release Anniversary.

Day 1 Games 15 - 11 

Day 2 Games 10 - 6

Day 3 Games 5 - 1

Thursday Nite Flashback returns!

I kicked of the return of Thursday Nite Flashback by playing some Phantasy Star II for the Sega Genesis.  I plan on playing this game to completion every thursday night.  Phantasy Star 2 is another game that I got really far into but gave up playing after my save file mysteriously disappeared.  Here's a video of part 1 of my long play session.  It's mostly just some simple grinding.
