A pretty good port of the arcade game, all things considered. Ugly as sin though.

A nice hidden gem and a pretty good brawler. I came to this one late; I always meant to play it but other games took priority. I kind of regret it now, considering I was playing crap like DJ Boy and Fantasia over this.

Picture an overhead Adventure Island but worse. Now you have Dino Riki. Not a fan of this game at all.

This had the potential to be so much better but clearly needed some kind of balancing. I waffled on my score for this one; I still like it but at the same time recognize its heavy flaws.

This was an odd one that I avoided for a long time, both because of the goofy name and because I figured it was not in my wheelhouse. Give it a try, it has smart mechanics, creative level design, and a solid aesthetic.

A pretty good arcade port that improves on the source material in a number of ways. It also introduces a few annoyances along the way but if platforming in the Ghouls n Ghosts mold is your thing you can't go wrong with Wardner.

This is a cool little import gem that almost made it overseas. Its a little rough around the edges but a pretty solid game in the Contra mold overall. I am almost positive it would have found an audience had it left Japan.

Another bad licensed game to add to the pile. Should have just made a Castlevania clone, movie license be damned.

A lot like Metroid in terms of its free form structure. But removing any type of save function makes it incredibly frustrating and tedious.

A great port of a cool and somewhat overlooked arcade game. Don't be an idiot like me and write it off, the mechanics are solid and it has plenty of content to keep you occupied for hours.
