I was wondering why I was suddenly getting subscribers out of nowhere XD Pam thank you so much for mentioning me ^^
I’ve also been on a spending spree xD Got the OSSC now and I finally brought a Dreamcast :]
The Saturn games you brought are games I want, darn the expensive retro prices xD
Now I shall be off to catch up on your other videos 😁
Add one more to the subs. That's a really appealing and nostalgic era of gaming for me
Wish more ppl would help other channels she's a rare one!
Subbed!! Pretty rad that she mentions smaller channels!
No problem! I like your videos. My bf is super into Saturn, he had a full set at one point, but now he's moved on to focusing mostly on the imports.
@@Cannotbetamed1 Awh I do really appreciate that :))
Oh neat, I still have a lot to learn but I also am interested in the import scene, I really want more fighting games for the Saturn xD
Awesome update Pam! You got some awesome games too. I need to play some more games.
Nice NES pick ups. Zelda 2 is my favorite Zelda game.
I do like that it includes side-scrolling
Omg Zelda 2 NES they say its a disaster (who are they? .. Nintendo)
Next you should get Faxanadu! It is another awesome side scrolling action RPG.
@@redcrimson1028 It's just the game I grew up with. I like the first Zelda game and Link to the past too. "I guess they really do hasn't weirdos out there in the world" Isn't a real sentence. Instead of trying to troll people on the internet you should learn proper sentence structure. ;)
@@SilhSe that is revisionist history. The game sold very well and would have done even better if not for a chip shortage. The game was loved by almost everyone that played it.
So far from a disaster, simply a sequel from when the series was finding itself.
Really enjoyed the music in this video, funny at first barely noticed but then found myself nodding my head to it.
Oh aswell wonderful video over all
Great vid. Looking forward to lots of future retro video game reviews on the channel.
I laughed out loud at the thought of a SNES collection that consists of Super Metroid, Zelda: A Link to the Past, and The Wizard of Oz. If ever the phrase "one of these things is not like the other" applied better, I can't think of it.
That's a nice haul. Thanks for showing and telling us about them.
No problem
Super Spy Hunter is kind of a hidden gem! Can't wait to see your review.
Lots of goodies, can't wait to see the reviews on some of the nes games👍
I recently started watching your channel thanks to Daria, and I'm really enjoying your content. It's always awesome to hear a fresh perspective on games that I grew up with and there's just something so soothing about watching your reviews. I can't wait to hear your final thoughts on A Link to the Past, as well as Faxanadu, as I noticed you got that in an earlier video. Awesome content, and keep up the great work!
Thank you and welcome to the channel
Thorough vid! Thanks again, Pam! No man’s sky just had way too much hype, but i love their ambition. This was something my son and I shared as a gentle exploration collectathon and without thinking too much about it, i love it for what it is!(we’ve since moved on to co-op lego titles which are far busier and just as satisfyingly repetitive!) My own gaming has been focused on finally getting round to finishing Going Home after a few years hiatus and very happy with that too. Really low energy month! :)
Nice haul, and awesome to hear about great games in the pipeline. Subscribing to Affro Show, thank you for giving them a shout out, their content sounds great
Awesome!
Some good NES pickups. Great video!
Thanks!
Sweet pick ups! Love me some NES!
The Clash At Demonhead? I love their song "Black Sheep". ;)
Amazing NES haul, Pam! Will has the hookup! I was contemplating ordering "Zen: Intergalactic Ninja" and "S.C.A.T." on eBay, but wasn't willing to pay the prices most sellers were asking. Also, "Clash at Demonhead" and M.C. Kids" are great additions! I suppose it goes without saying, but I hope you do reviews of ALL OF THEM!
Love Solstice! Pam, the title music is some of the best ever from the NES. Listen through the entire song! It's incredible!
I'll make sure to listen all the way through
"Stinger" is basically Twinbee. It is a vertical Konami shooter game with a cute little spaceship that collects bells for powerups.
Neat!
@@Cannotbetamed1 Pam you are too retro for me. Common do a review on all 2d games on switch, nintendo 3ds and extra.
Solstice is great, it's the isometric one :)
It's follow up on SNES Equinox is awesome too.
Really cool pickups pam!
Fun fact. Hidetaka Suehiro was the designer of Tomba 2. He also created Deadly Premonition, a terrific Twin Peaks-inspired horror survival game.
I had that Caveman Games on the PC! I think it was under the title Caveman UGLYMPICS.
Sweet pickups! You're gonna love Stinger, it's a Twinbee shmup so it should be right up your alley. Make sure to 'juggle' the power-ups to get the good ones!
Oh, nice.
Thanks for the update Pam, you're always up to the coolest stuff! 🙆♀️
Btw, I'm also playing Divinity 2 Original Sin, but for the first time, also as Lohse. About ready to leave the island. Wish me luck!
Good luck! The game opens up so much after that.
Thank you! I'm a bit concerned that I'm about to be overwhelmed and probably stop playing 😅
Excellent choices for games
it’s weird watching ur new vids after watching old ones cus ur vid quality is so much better
Great video Pam! Keep up the good work!
Thanks
@@Cannotbetamed1 your welcome!
Nice pickups Pam, I mainly picked up gameboy colour games this month: X-Men war of mutants, Tarzan, Toy Story 2, and Pokemon Pinball. I didn't know the Clash at Demonhead was a game, I only heard the name from the Scott Pilgrim film.
I really want to check out indivisible, I played a bit of it at a gamesconvention last year and it looked smooth and lovely.
Should I be picking up the impression that Will grabbed the expensive games? Lol. Love the video and the shout-out!
Man, you got some of the expensive NES games! Great pickups!
Spending sprees are fun! I have that Viva Piñata, too. I bet you’ll like Stinger - it’s a shooter like Twinbee. I hope you do get through to the end of 7R eventually - it really surprised me (and played it in tandem with the original so the references, and the divergent parts, were even more evident and I really enjoyed it)
I'll get to the end of FF7R some time. Some parts of it I really love, then they go and add in quests or fights that I think are really annoying.
When a game is longer than I expected. That definitely describes a moment when I will give up on a game. I'm like, "I am not done yet." lol
I was really shocked when I looked up the time to beat and found out I wasn't even halfway through.
I like DOS2, but it's definitely WAY too long. Especially because it's a game that encourages multiple playthroughs. Sorry, y'all, I'm not gonna do this more than once.
Hey Pam, new to the channel, and love the nostalgia bomb. Shout out to Astyanax, I loved that one back in the day. I remember the music being pretty good and the cinemas being great for the time. Keep up the good work!
Welcome to the channel
Caveman Games! I remember that game! Nostalgia points.
Good month
it is always an even greater pleasure watch your vídeos when you buy NES games, I imagine you must have an incredible collection. The wizard of oz was made by SETA which is the same developer of Nosferatu (snes) and Downtown (Arcade) so the game must be good although I was told that AVGN did a review saying that the game is really bad.
I just watched a review from SNESDrunk recently who said it was really bad.
Damn that’s a good NES haul. I’ve been playing a lot of NES on the Retro Pie setup lately. I’m always surprised by the amount of games I never heard of like when you reviewed Isolated Warrior.
Love these videos
You're off to see the wizard! My condolences....
Alot of classics. Great video
Thanks
There is an interesting GDC talk by the developer of Ancient Enemy talking about how they've managed to survive as a tiny indie. The company is basically just a married couple.
Interesting, I'll have to check that out
@@Cannotbetamed1 Cool! Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/JmwbYl6f11c/видео.html
Nice haul Pam!
Thanks
I do like the new X-com games. I was addicted to the originals on the PS1.
Nice haul. :)
Can't wait for that Wizard Of Oz review
I'm having deja vu with that damn pinata game again.... I've grown up playing classic NES games but somehow never played Castlevania (until recently forcing myself to say I have) We had 8 Eyes which I realized is so similar graphically. I also have never played any Mega Man games, ever. These things happen. P.S. I've found myself playing a lot of NHL 1997 lately. Nostalgia is a powerful drug, thanks for sharing Pam.
No Man's Sky is soooo much better today than it used to be! I'm a sucker for base building though. But its exploration is also truly fantastic!
I use to have such a big NES collection, I bought them in the nineties before speculators turned up. I knew eventually games would be valuable and wanted to stock up since I didn't know emulators existed.
I still have an NES, but I find them too expensive now. You have a great collection.
Hi, Pam. I hope your life's good. I've recently played through the entire Commandos Behind Enemy Lines game for the first time in years.
This looks like a very nice hall for the video games especially for the NES games, I actually find Mega Man 5 to be very underrated and it has one of my favourite soundtracks in the entire series.
Warner Bros handed The Lego Ninjago Movie Videogame out for free on PC/PS4/XBO. That was my "main" in June, because I'm an idiot. It ended up requiring lots of attention and care to avoid being locked out of 100% completion and several Achievements/Trophies. Tracking events unlocks, making USB backup saves after every chapter, and replaying chapters with said USB saves when the bugs occured. Kinda like your Maneater situation. I know it's just a game, but it sucks so hard when you put in time and effort towards a goal and get screwed out of it. Thanks to the bugs being well known, and the preventative measures I took, I did get everything. But it was a job Pam. Good luck to you with Maneater.
I really am thinking of collecting NES games and consoles just looks awesome and i love watching your Collection videos makes me want to get a good collection my self going
It's a fun one to collect for and I like that many of the games are nice and short
Honestly, the only thing I did this month was play classic FPS games such as Doom 1, Doom 2, Duke Nukem 3D, and Quake 1. After my PC started having issues, and with all the problems in my personal life, and in the world in general, I just can't find the motivation to make any videos anymore, so I'm taking advantage of this to play all the classics I've missed out on. And at the moment, I'm mostly into classic FPS's, along with modern ones inspired by them. I bought Ion Fury, Dusk, and Amid Evil recently, and I'm so excited to give them a try.
Hope things start going better for you
Hey, I mentioned Zen haha Also I think you'll like Red Star. I've had it for a long time now. It's a shoot'em up/brawler. It's basically a top down Gunstar Heroes based on a comic book. I really like it. Stinger on NES is part of the cute'em up series Twin Bee. The first boss is a watermelon! I just started playing New and Tasty: Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee Remake on PS4. It's very good, and the level design is much smoother than the original.
I should check out the Oddworld remake. I played a little of the original, but never got very far.
@@Cannotbetamed1 I like the original but the Remake is a lot better. I would start there :)
Happy Canada Day Pam! And you definitely need to do a review of The Wizard of Oz on Snes!
My sister and I rented McKids back in the day. It was surprisingly good (at least as kids playing it).
Hello Pam! Finished Observation just last week, so so good. Love the puzzles, no instructions so it makes you feel so good to complete one. Plus the story gets spooky really quickly! I hope you like it. I'm finally playing LA Noir which i'm enjoying a lot although kicking myself when i select the wrong clue to accuse someone with or annoying an innocence person :-)
I need to go back to Observation. I didn't like controlling the camera when it was flying around and put it down for a while.
@@Cannotbetamed1 Were you using a mouse for that? A lot of people on in the steam forum complained about that. I was using a controller and found it controlled fine.
Nope, I was playing on Xbox with a controller
@@Cannotbetamed1 Ah right OK. I found the best way for me was to keep the movement as simple as possible: use the right stick to point where i wanted to go, then push forward on left stick to move forward. And don't forget you can use the L2/R2 buttons to rotate the ball, useful for getting the floor of a corridor on the floor so you don't get disorientated.
Wizard of Oz for the SNES, Sounds like a simple platform, but it's not simple game. Its very hard a very flawed.
I didn’t get much physically last month. My copy of Persona 5 Royal for PS4 arrived on the first then later I got Dungeon Siege: Throne of Agony for PSP, completing my collection of the series, and Crisis 2 for PS3. I got many digital games though. On GOG I got several games. Highlights include Pathfinder: Kingmaker and DLCs, The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut, Battlechasers Nightwar, ATOM RPG: Trudograd, and the entire Supreme Commander franchise. On Steam I grabbed the Insurgence Indy JRPG series plus a few games that I already own on GOG to support the developers.
On PS4 I started Persona 5 Royal bit I stopped after the first Palace and school break because I don’t want to burn myself out by pushing such a long game so fast after playing the original version soon after getting my PS4. After that I focused on PC games until the new Borderlands 3 DLC came out. I haven’t gotten far but I have mixed feelings. First there’s no sign of a character I really hoped would appear. Second there are some light Metroidvania elements which IMO do not blend well with the gameplay of Borderlands. I do like the setting and have enjoyed some of the side missions a lot though.
On PC I put some more time into Final Fantasy VII Classic. I reached Kalm and set the game aside after the flashback. I moved on to ATOM RPG: Trudograd which is a post-apocalyptic WRPG set in the mid-2000s Soviet Union (In this timeline the Cold War went nuclear in the mid-1980s) It’s a direct sequel to an earlier game so most people will probably want to play that first. (I stopped caring about playing, reading, or watching a series in order long ago). It is listed as in development for good reason though. I had fun when the game was working but set it aside when I kept having issues like the world map not letting me travel to needed destinations or areas not allowing me to exit to the world map. I boosted my character’s Dexterity and especially Intelligence and took the Timid Theoretician trait which reduces carrying capacity, and the Speechcraft skill (though I spent many points boosting Speechcraft) but boosts Intelligence plus the Tinkering and Technology skills while granting instant access to level 4 crafting recipes. My character’s highest skills are Tinkering and Technology tied at the top followed by Pistol/SMG then Speechcraft and Lockpicking. On the ability grid I took pretty much the entire Tinkering tree which along with aiding in things like repair and crafting aids in theft by making picking many locks auto successes and preventing people from attacking if they catch you trying to steal something. I also took several low and mid-level abilities from the Pistol/SMG tree.
After setting that aside I decided to try Steel and Steam Episode 1, an Indy JRPG I picked up on Steam long ago (It isn’t on sale any more) Other then the Steampunk setting it is pretty plain but I’ve paid more for IMO worse JRPGs both Indy and company made. I would have set this aside except for two things. First there’s a question within the game I want answered before doing so. Second the USB cord linking my external hard drive, which has almost all my games including this, and my laptop is dying and I won’t be able to replace it until next week.
On my 3DS I started Dragon Lapis, a Kemco RPG. I find the setting, and characters are pretty bland but the gameplay has some interesting touches. It uses Growth Plates which are mini-Sphere grids tied to classes or weapon types but they also boost stats and grant additional stat bonuses when completed. And it uses a job system which I always enjoy. Right now my party consists of a Hero (Male lead’s unique class), a Hi-Dragonite (Female lead’s unique class) , a Brigand King (Upgraded Thief), and an Acolyte (Upgraded Priest, or a White Mage with some attack magic). If I had paid thirty dollars, or maybe even twenty dollars for this I would probably be annoyed but I think it is well worth the ten dollars I did pay for it.
And on PSP I continued playing Dungeon Explorer: Warriors of Ancient Arts. I managed to unlock the Bard class and at the month’s end I reached the town that sells the weapon tyoe unique to Bards but I decided to hold off on the class change until I’ve maxed my Hunter class level, and the skill levels for weapon types that Hunters can use.
I love that you review classic videogames..
Also i love ur voice...n pronunciation..because im learning English.. Great job
Glad you enjoy it!
June was the month to play all the games for me, too! Although I did finish most of them, hehe. The Last Day of June was my Eastshade-style-no-conflict experience, except it was heartbreaking rather than uplifting. Ittle Dew was a nice block-pushing puzzler with a cute animation style. Orwell was a lot shorter than I'd expected before I installed it. I was expecting a 10-15 hour game but 5hrs was a good length for one playthrough. South Park: The Stick of Truth was a cool nostalgia trip but ultimately forgettable as an RPG. I doubt I'll get the other SP game, glad I haven't bought it already.
As for currently playing, I'm back into Defence Grid as I stopped partway through the first campaign a couple of years ago. And I am quite enjoying Victor Vran at he moment, it's scratching the ARPG itch very well. I'm so glad you inspired me to get the XB1 controller!
I'm glad you're enjoying the controller! I have Victor Vran but I've never tried it
Look forward to hearing your thoughts on Toxic Crusaders. I ❤️ Toxie and I’m a huge fan of all things Troma but that game is pure torture. One of my favorite AVGN videos
The first Tomba game is one of my favorite games for the PS1 and far superior to Tomba 2 in my opinion (sadly, I don't think the sequel did it much justice). It's been a long time since I played it, but from what I remember, it has some almost metroidvania like qualities of finding upgrades that give you new abilities and allow further exploration, but the other aspects of the gameplay and the rather bizarre style of screen shifting platforming probably puts it into its own weird little category. The game very much revolves around trying out creative means of interacting with the environment and gathering clues from npc's to solve puzzles and further progress. This coupled with an absurdly goofy environment make it one of the most fun and unique games I think I've ever played and something I would very highly recommend.
I love your channel ❤️
The cute em up games are always hilarious to me, check out Ice Cream Surfer, it's not amazing but pretty fun and is on various systems including PS4. Btw I like you way you say Vehicular!!
I remember when the home shopping network was selling clash at demon head for a while. My friend had his mom order it for him and we played the crap out of it. I really enjoyed that game.
28:50 Good job Pam! I have seen more than a few games I wanted to play fall prey to Epic and their Tencent cash. Glad to see you are keeping away from their crap.
30:17 No spoilers, you will 100% know when things change. I like the latter half of the game much more myself.
Blaster Master Zero (1 and 2) on Steam were worth the price, as sort of soft reboots of the original NES Blaster Master.
Right now I am playing The Legend of Zelda 2 NES Classic series on the GBA SP and gba consolizer system. I also recommend looking for the Analogue Pocket in the future for handheld fun.
Since you like shmups, give Stinger a go. It's a fun play. Also, respect for the Panzer Dragoon music!
I will give it a try
The Messenger is so good!
Astyamax is really good, and it plays exactly like Legendary Axe on TG 16.
Raiden III is always a fun one, and $30 is a steal for Tomba 2.
Zen Intergalactic Ninja is one of my favorite NES games. SCAT is a fun one too. Good timing on finding Astyanax. Erin Plays just did a new video on it.
Those Nintendo game pack cards are always cool to have.
I've been playing a lot of Last of Us 2, which I got about 60% through so far but I'm taking a break from it for a while because it's starting to drive me nuts.
I picked up Astyanax the day before Erin's video, it was funny. I'm excited at all the good games I have to play.
Almost forgot, I have also been playing some of the online Fighting Fantasy game-books, including the Deathtrap Dungeon one which I am pretty sure you recommended 🙂.
Oh cool, how are you liking it?
@@Cannotbetamed1 loving it, though I failed on my first run......didn't find the gems I needed 😕.
The temple of elemental evil with the circle of eight mod, Mount & Blade II Bannerlord and Underrail Expedition (Isoparametric old (very old) school game a-la-the original Fallout. I think may like that last one.
Last month I also played an adventure game called "Close to the Sun," set in a gigantic ship so big that it has its own full-size opera theater. The game is very nice to look at, especially with first-person freedom of movement. But sadly the game has very little interesting interaction, with many locations having nothing for you to do other than reading a couple of notes or pulling a lever. The story of a scientific experiment gone awry is also all too familiar.
Next time I turn on my nes with everdrive ima check out zen intergalactic ninja and isolated warrior. Somehow never heard ofg thhese 2 games before. Then Kron Conquest and little mermaid after those
Stinger (nes). Haven't played either. It's a shoot em up. From 87. Iam waiting for it to be delivered.
Hope and looking forward to see your angle/thoughts about that one.
A good title that I would love a remake or sequel is Jade cocoon 2 for the PS2.
I picked up Resident Evil 0 & 1 on Steam, as well as Divinity: Original Sin 1 & 2. Through June, I was mostly playing Pillars of Eternity & trying to complete my 5th anniversary playthrough of The Witcher 3 🙂.
I love NES games FOREVER!!!
Your Parodius game is Gokujou Parodius Da! Deluxe Pack. It contains Parodius Da! and Parodius Fantastic Journey. I recently picked up the PlayStation version in Japan :) By the way, you made me buy Isolated Warrior, looking forward to trying it.
Cool, hope you like Isolated Warrior
McKids is good. Pretty much what you'd expect from a middle-tier NES platformer.
Clash at Demonhead is one of the best "cult classics" of all time. And, there's a reference to it in Scott Pilgrim. I was disappointed that James and Mike Mondays (from Cinemassacre) didn't finish it in their video. You should definitely do a review!
I'm sure I will some time. Probably not soon though.
@@Cannotbetamed1 Go wherever your interest leads. Your reviews of lesser-known retro games are refreshing. Plenty that I've never played or heard of before. Looking forward to whatever you cover next!
Pick ups time!
Watched the whole video. I understand your pain as far as needing to be all over the place when it comes to playing certain games. I know I have a list probably longer. Games I start and stopped on. I have decided to just play shorter titles for a little while. A long RPG will do that to you.
I’m pretty sure The Order 1886 was derided for a lot more than just its short length. It is a game that I still want to check out, though. It should be very cheap now.
I have a lot of nostalgia for the original Streets of Rage, so I immediately bought Streets of Rage 4. I had no problem with the music from it at all.
I played the game Shadow Tactics recently and thought it was great. I’ll soon be getting Desperados 3, which is from the same developers and seems about as good.
Shadow Tactics is one I got right when it came out. It looks great but I am so bad at it. I gave up a few hours in.
Clash at demon head was a amazing game back in the day its like a run and gun rpg. In my opinion it didnt age well. Loved it back in the nes days but now it falls into that category of a “where the heck do i go kinda game”. Last time i tried it i just didnt have the patience for it
Oh it's one you can get lost in? I'm probably not going to like it then
The Red Star is based on a really cool comic book. You should check it out...if you can find it.
I'm not really into comics
Pam, I highly recommend you watching the Wizard of Oz cartoon series from 1987.
Made by DIC Entertainment Corporation.
Pam, do you collect vintage gaming magazines too? I used to read a lot of Computer Gaming World, which was the premiere PC gaming mag decades ago. Someone actually scanned all issues and put them on the web (Google CGW museum). I recall a lot of mags for other platforms and game genres. Some companies, like Sierra and 3DFx, also published their own mags.
Nope, don’t have any magazines
"The Wizard of Oz" for the SNES is supposed to be pretty awful, as you may have heard. That being said, maybe you'll be able to overlook it's flaws, because of your love for the film. Speaking of which, if you haven't already seen it, I *highly* recommend "Return to Oz." It's a fantastic sequel to the original film that doesn't get talked about nearly enough.
Return to Oz is so creepy
@@Cannotbetamed1 Haha! Yeah, for a supposed children's movie, it is quite creepy!
I have had Tomba 1 since childhood and It's like half 2.5d platformer and half isometric RPG, but I think the later part's for getting side missions and items and then the main game is 2.5d platforming.
.
FREAKING dope find though, both of those are very rare and coveted, especially the second one. Think the devs shut down after releasing it.
I'm currently playing Policenaut on the Sega Saturn. It's cyberpunk / blade runner style game. Story is good.
Nice, I want to play that
Parodius and Stinger are two of the very best cute-'em-ups of all time. Stinger is the sequel to Twinbee, the first game in the genre.
I love the music on the first stage of Radiant Silvergun. "There; one where you toss cavewomen, sounds questionable, but we will see" - LOL. Wow, that zelda tip was very - useless, lol. That sucks about the maneater collectible issue. Fancy that, a game about a shark in the sea being dampened for you :-p
I used to use the website thebackloggery to track my games.
Hope you eventually do a review of Wizard of Oz for SNES. I can't say I had a good time with it, but maybe you'll dig it.. and a bit of an ominous "Good luck" haha
I've played through the first couple levels and it's not great, but not as bad as everyone's been making it out to be.
@@Cannotbetamed1 yeah, I just got frustrated with how inconsistent the collision detection is for the platform jumping. There's definitely worse games out there though haha
I remember avgn did a review on that
It's funny how different people approach tackling games. The notion of "keeping track of what I'm playing" is foreign to me, since I'll pick a single game, play it exclusively until it's completed, and then move on to another.
I generally play one game to completion at a time, but sometimes I do end up juggling games. Right now I'm playing RE7,Borderlands3, The Halo 3 flight test, and Forza Horizon 4, and Fortnite when my nephews want me to play games with them.
There are just so many things to play, I want to play them all! I usually have at least a couple things going on PC, XBox One and then some older consoles.
I've been hitting the clearance shelves again this month at Walmart and Target (in the U.S.) and buying a bunch of stuff. I ended up picking up the following (all for PS4): Strange Brigade, Yakuza Kiwami 2 and Yakuza 6 (YK2 and Y6 are both steelbooks, Y6 is the artbook edition) for $7 apiece, Indivisible for $9 and Ni No Kuni: Wrath Of The White Witch Remastered for $19. There's actually a LOT more that are on clearance at Walmart right now, including stuff like Dishonored 2, Prey and many others. Most of their 3DS and other older Nintendo stock (like leftover Wii U games) are also on clearance too.
Target( in the U.S.) also began putting a few things on clearance again. I picked up Doom (2016) from there this past week for $9.98 (50% off).
I may NOT keep it though as I've heard most of the updates are for multiplayer and balloon the game's file size to almost 100 GB's. Having just sold my almost 4 year old PS4 slim for way more than I should've been able to get ($275) I just bought a new one (from Sony Rewards, only place online with them new in stock) for MSRP and that only has a 1 TB HDD in it.
Finally the Dollar Tree stores in the U.S. also got in some video games for the Playstation 4 and Xbox One including Middle-Earth: Shadow Of War and some others as well as their usual Blu-Rays and DVD's they get at least once a month.
It's too bad they didn't give the option of only installing the campaign in Doom 2016 like they did in the new one.
@@Cannotbetamed1 If only they would. Then again I'd also like to go back to the days of being able to pop a game into a system and just play it immediately without waiting for an update (or nine). At least last gen the file sizes weren't huge like now, where sometimes you're downloading 20+ GB's or MORE.
@@Cannotbetamed1 FYI: I don't know what part of Canada you're in. but if you're near the U.S. border I would definitely suggest taking advantage of the new Power Up Rewards Pro program from Gamestop.
They give you a $5 coupon/certificate every month and since their stores are open again you can get a $10 PSN/XBL/Nintendo card for $5 out of pocket. I've been doing that for a while. Though today I used my July one to take $5 off Children Of Morta, which is only $14.99 there right now.
It'd definitely offset the cost of buying games digitally. I had initially planned on using them every month to be able to buy 2-3 years of PS+ at Black Friday pricing direct from Sony. Though at the moment I'm debating reupping or not. I have till Jan 2021 to decide anyway.
I love how bluntly you said that Zelda II tip was shitty lolol
lol, it didn't really seem like a Zelda tip, more general advice on playing any video game
YES! Amazing! real tangible full sized software entertainment programs NES/SNES paks (IC lithography art) the one that started it all !! , Im going to buy just for game display showcase !!!
I'm curious what your thoughts are on Quantic Dream games? I never owned a playsation and I've noticed they're currently on sale on steam.
They're okay. I like story heavy games and QTEs but they do get quite ham-fisted. Heavy Rain was my favorite of them.
I did like Streets of Rage 4. But I agree with the music.
Great deal on Tomba 2! I lost so many hours to Viva Pinata. That game needs a sequel so bad.
I am not sure but I think to have heard that a sequel really exists.
