Video Games Of The Week

Game of the Week Switch

Action

Always one of the most unlikeliest names for a video game hero, Earnest Evans Collection contains his a fore named game Earnest Evans from the Mega CD era, besides the seminal MD El Viento and the cult classic from the Mega CD Anett Futatabi. Telenet always had such devoted followers and these three titles demonstrate why.

Game of the Week Switch

Action

A huge license in Japan based on the classic manga. You play the role of Mr. Saeba – a bit of a Japanese bond, fond of both ladies and firearms. Good advise would be to keep em peeled for the helpful nurse on each level. Reminiscent of Rolling Thunder in parts. Brought back for the modern era thanks to a fabulous live-action film on Netflix.

Game of the Week Switch

Shoot Em Up

Much-cherished Milestone shoot ’em up gets a Switch reboot and there are Hitchcock overtones for this crow related shooter. Utilises power ups for the shot, sword and shield giving it a strategic element. Known as also ‘Crows’ and ‘Karous’.

Game of the Week Switch

platform

Includes the rare DS version Gallery of Labyrinth –  Gothic chic has never looked so good as Count Dracula tries with all his vim and vigour to rid himself and his mansion of the trespassing Belmont clan – even if protagonists Jonathan and Charlotte’s links to the Belmont ancestry are slim. Both players have a different skills set. Keeps true to the manuscript of the Castlevania tradition and those familiar with its whip cracking action will feel right at home in the spooky splendour of the Counts castle. Concessions are made to the modern gamer in being able to plough right through quickly, yet the seasoned vampire slayer will take their time to explore the plethora of in game secrets. Plus players can leap into paintings to take on off shoots from the castle with plenty of visual variety in this platformer set in WWII. The bosses mark a stunning return to form and show the Konami team to not be shy on eating cheese before bed. Another fine DS conversion in Castlevania Order of Ecclesia included too: Konami style alright – packed full with a bounty of varied levels and surprises all drawn in the most chic gothic fashion as the developers seem to have been hanging around the streets of Shinjuku with Gackt look a likes as much as Transylvanian castles. Plenty of innovative touches and a commendable blend of keeping true to the series traditions and bringing in new blood. Finally includes the arcade version of Castlevania: Akumajo Dracula Revisited, also known as Haunted Castle.

GameBoy Color
Action
A very respectable license game based on the world of Harry Potter as he explores the impressive 3D world building up experience and spells all building up to a run in with you know who. Great use of the GameBoy Colour’s palette and chip tunes.  
GameBoy Original
Action
Makes ace use of the monochrome screen as players bound the platforms clearing away the Bero men baddies with a tactical comb or two in order to clear the level and progress. Much sort after due to being released in a collectable tin, as opposed to a card box.
PS3
Rhythm
Fans of the late, great Michael Jackson will rejoice in this tribute to him bringing you the chance to moonwalk across the living room like the man himself and keep neighbours on their toes with appropriate exclamations.
Sega Hardware
Controller
With slow motion and autofire settings and programmable function, this Sunsoft joypad is a fine third party pad and has a nice feel in the hands.  
Sony Hardware
Controller
Solid arcade parts used for the body, joystick and switches with a finger friendly button layout and plenty of space to rest a wrist on. Not that much rest will be had in using it for Ehrgeiz as it is themed with the logo looking good against the subtle metal. But of course it works a treat on a wealth of Playstation genres, not just fight titles.  
Nintendo Hardware
Cable
Can be switched between GameBoy Advance and GameBoy Color and the cables can be cleverly connected together to allow four player battles with two cables.
Merchandise
Handheld
A rare handheld fine that is a great tribute to the Beatmania game and enjoys players to keep their rhythm going wherever they may be. Smart little scratching wheel makes this highly-desirable with collectors.
Sony Hardware
Controller
Clever pad from master crafters Hori that can switch between two Digital, Analogue, Negicon, and Analogue Joystick modes. Tried and trusted ergonomic design with intriguing clear look to see the inner workings.
