Would you believe I actually watched all of those?

I like it when Bill screams when enemies attack. AGGHHHHHGGHA!!!

Thanks for playing these awful games and letting me know not to purchase them on the VC.

First time I have heard Bill's voice...

LOL, it's funny when he screams everytime an enemy approaches him.

He's not the only one doing that, even though you were kidding. Since last week, I've been slowly planning on starting my own audio-reviews.

You don't sound like what I thought you would sound like.

Oh, and your naughty stuff, really isn't all that naughty.

Hahaha, I also have Ghostbusters 2 and Adventures of Tom Sawyer (who throws rocks for weapons). Good times I had with those growing up.

I think the only strange game I had for the NES was MC Kids, which I actually really like. It was a decent Mario Bros. 3 clone/rip off. I actually played it all the way through and beat it.

Bill sounds just like I expected, I don't know why

Bill you did not entertain my Chinchilla. It still ran away even with your review on... Do they have not taste...

mantidor · « **Reply #21 on:** August 07, 2006, 06:55:32 PM »

ok, now Im confused, I used to play this car game called road runner, is a vertical scroller. The objective of the game is just to get to the goal, but you have limited gas, and you can pick up special cars that give you a little more, at the same time the road is filled with blue and red cars which will try to make you crash if you pass near them... and also if you do really well a blue superman will pass flying at the left of the screen! I didnt make the connection with the road runner character until now, and I suppose that the game I played wasn't really called road runner anyway, or is a wierd version, I don't know anymore...

Oh and I also played an old PC game of Nightmare on elm street that is far better than this NES version, I can't recall its name though, but I remember the first part was about running in the town to try to find the house while being chased by ghosts. The game had a top-down view.

Maybe I should put up a warning!

"WARNING: CHINCHILLAS MAY NOT BE ENTERTAINED BY BILL'S HORRIBLE SENSE OF HUMOUR! THIS MAY LEAD TO RANDOM SPURTS OF VIOLENCE FROM YOUR CHINCHILLA, SO PLEASE WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AT ALL TIMES!"

UncleBob · « **Reply #24 on:** August 07, 2006, 08:15:35 PM »

Dude, I'm totally going to have to rip into you on your Gyromite review.

The Second Controller is supposed to be connected to ROB, your friendly Robot buddy. He plays the game with you!
Firstly, the "Test" mode is to make sure you have ROB looking at the screen correctly.
In Game A the player simply controls the Professor.
In both Game A and B, you send signals to ROB (that's what the flashing screen is all about) that tells him to move left, right, up or down and to open or close his hands (in order to pick up or drop a Gyro). In Game B, you send these signals automatically, but in Game A, I believe you have to press select before sending ROB a signal.

Playing Gyromite without ROB would be like playing Donkey Konga without the Kongas. Except even less fun. Although, to be fair, Gyromite with ROB is still less fun than Donkey Konga.

IceCold · « **Reply #25 on:** August 07, 2006, 10:39:18 PM »

Hahaha, I loved Nintendo World Cup. We used to play that game all the time when I was a kid. One of my first VC downloads..

Arbok · « **Reply #26 on:** August 08, 2006, 12:22:16 AM »

OMG. I had no idea there was a Super Dodge Ball style Soccer game out there. I have to ask, though, can you kill people, sending them up as little angels? That was honestly the best part of that old game.

Also, you know what's begging for a review? Trog

Caliban · « **Reply #27 on:** August 08, 2006, 04:29:23 AM »

"Headbutt!" > Priceless.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #28 on:** August 08, 2006, 04:30:35 AM »

UncleBob, I know about R.O.B....I just didn't feel like mentioning him!

(Actually I did in my Stack-Up review, but I forgot to upload it...I guess I'll do that now...)

Oh, and Arbok, you CAN knock players out unconscious if you beat them up enough! But they come back after a goal is made...

UncleBob · « **Reply #29 on:** August 08, 2006, 04:37:47 AM »

You have Stack Up? I want that game... (but only with the blocks for ROB...)

Ceric · « **Reply #30 on:** August 08, 2006, 04:58:44 AM »

You know Arbok I was thinking the exact same thing after watching this latest batch. I hope that one makes it to the virtual console online enabled.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #31 on:** August 08, 2006, 05:41:06 AM »

Stack-Up for UncleBob...

Ceric · « **Reply #32 on:** August 08, 2006, 05:59:22 AM »

Bill did you ever have a a R.O.B?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #33 on:** August 08, 2006, 06:11:55 AM »

Nope...I never ever saw one in a store...

Oh I fully agree, I would even love it if someone tried to adapt it for DS use with Wi-fi play... that concept had a lot of potential and was extremely fun with more than one player.

vudu · « **Reply #35 on:** August 08, 2006, 08:57:22 AM »

Bill, you really should edit the first post to include reviews you're put up since the topic was created. That way, people just joining the party will be able to easily find all your awesomeness in a single post.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #36 on:** August 08, 2006, 09:20:01 AM »

Quantem Warrior (I think thats the name). You are a guy with really long red hair and a painted face with traditional japanese close for the style. You in a computer killing various with you hair and you collect and use chips to also kill enemies.

You're in luck, as I had made one of Bayou Billy the other day but I didn't really want to put it up because I played it so horribly...But now I ended up putting it up anyway!

"This Stage Use the Controller!!!"

Classic, ageless advice...

ShyGuy · « **Reply #45 on:** August 08, 2006, 02:49:58 PM »

See, the thing about Bayou Billy is it also had Light Gun levels. Ironically, you could play these levels with the controller as well, and they were actually easier to play that way than with the Zapper.

Requiem · « **Reply #46 on:** August 08, 2006, 06:07:45 PM »

Wait, so can we request a game?

Does it have to be on the NES?

Does it have to be obscure?

Paperboy?

Ceric · « **Reply #47 on:** August 08, 2006, 06:25:44 PM »

Bill you have to do Kirby Adventure. Then you have done all of the NES games on the Current universal master gamelist at Nintendo. (Just go to advance and filter by system for NES only.)

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #48 on:** August 08, 2006, 07:21:19 PM »

I don't own every NES game ever, so requesting might not work...

I DO have Kirby's Adventure, so I might play it sometime this week when I'm not busy! Oh, and I may end up adding SNES and Genesis games when I finally run out of NES games to play...

vudu · « **Reply #49 on:** August 08, 2006, 07:24:21 PM »

But Kirby's Adventure is good. A Bill video review will miss the point.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #50 on:** August 08, 2006, 09:21:25 PM »

That's okay! I will probably suck at it enough for it to still be amusing!

nitsu niflheim · « **Reply #51 on:** August 09, 2006, 03:56:20 AM »

Who said you have to own the game to play it?

Ceric · « **Reply #52 on:** August 09, 2006, 05:53:39 AM »

Bill I'm going to ask if you be ok if I did something similar with a totally different system. I figure I ask for your approval my master. (I just have to wrench the system from my brother, fix my camera, and make a mounting apperadus(sp?))

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #53 on:** August 09, 2006, 06:14:28 AM »

Why wouldn't it be okay?

I would like entertainment, too, so go right ahead!

I just checked and found my mistake, is not Road Runner, is Road Fighter, I guess I was confused with Lode Runner and I mixed up the names.

Maybe anyone with a camera and an awesome enough computer should post video reviews. I was going to call Tag Team Wrestling. Then I realized I don't have any way to get the videos on my computer.

I believe you are referring to Kabuki Quantum Fighter, a game with such a bizarre premise that I still remember its name even though I only ever saw a little bit about it in Nintendo Power a long time ago.

those games are just waaaiting to be played and made fun of for sucking. does anyone remember the pro wrestling game where one of the guys special moves is this weird tackle manauver where he becomes a human missle and shoots across the screen horizontaly?? that sh*t had me laughing till no end

Yes, World Cup was great (especially killing players with bicycle kicks), although I only had the Game Boy version. Glad to see the NES version is just as feature packed!

Great idea for a thread BTW.

Bubsy seems to have arbitrary rules - can swim through streams of water and pass under waterfalls but cannot touch large bodies of water at all. What sense does this make? And jumping in a car kills you? Stupid. I hate Bubsy.
