Beat a Game 2023
6-Nov-23 5:21pmRenaissance2K
With my birthday month over, it's back to business as usual, playing through two games to satisfy objectives in the Retro Talkshop Thread.
Number: 75
Full Title: The Legend of Zelda
Platform Played: Super Nintendo
Collection: N/A
Native Platform: Nintendo NES
Original Platforms: Nintendo NES
Applicable Badge: Hyrulian Hero (1/2)
This is another fan port of a NES classic to the SNES by Infidelty, in the same vein as Mega Man 2 from last month. Despite being the very first NES game I ever witnessed, back in 1987, I didn't complete it until a few years ago on the NES Mini. The SNES version is a subtle-yet-remarkable improvement. Aside from a few bugs that are just as funny as they are unfortunate, the improved performance adds a lot of snap to the gameplay, and the ability to rotate through items without entering the menu is a QOL improvement whose benefits cannot be understated. I had a real blast with this one.
Number: 76
Full Title: Shining in the Darkness
Platform Played: Genesis
Collection: N/A
Native Platform: Genesis
Original Platforms: Genesis
Applicable Badge: Level Up! (already earned)
To complete the Retro Talkshop Thread's Annual Franchise Challenge, I feel like I've been playing through this old school JRPG dungeon crawler for ages, but Backloggery is telling me that I started this in August, less than three months ago. The artwork, battle system, and sense of humor made this game a whole lot more enjoyable, but I'm not sure how era-accurate me would have stood up to the task without save states and maps. The required backtracking, single save point, and unexpected traps made dungeon traversal a whole lot more frustrating than I would have liked. That said, when the game isn't trying to stab you in the back, it's a fun game that I don't see myself replaying in the future without some quality of life updates.

I've picked Final Fantasy XVI back up in earnest, though I'm growing increasingly skeptical of my ability to finish the game before the end of 2023. On the portable front, I'm enthralled by Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Playing solo is nowhere near the giddy experience I had playing side-by-side with my little sister just after launch, but it's still a refreshing take on an ancient formula.

Nintendo is just so lazy with their special editions. If they just went back to the N64 translucent days, they'd move so many consoles.

I've gotten 100% on the six main worlds and the hub world but haven't finished all of the Special World yet. I think I am missing ~15 standees as well and haven't gotten any of the badges unlocked after beating the game. The Switch says I'm over 15 hours. I wish it were more precise, but there is a lot of meat here. I am definitely in the camp that says this game annihilates the
series. I also feel it is much stronger than its Switch contemporary, Odyssey.

Wii Daisy Circuit was previously announced in a Nintendo Direct. On top of that, the latest wave includes Wii Rainbow Road, Tour Madrid Drive, GCK DK Mountain, Piranha Plant Cove, SNES Bowser Castle 3, Tour Rome Avanti, and 3DS Rosalina’s Ice World. Also don’t forget that Funky Kong from Mario Kart Wii plus Pauline and Peachette
Excited for the tracks in bold.
