Podcast Ep25! Sit down and strap in, it's time for Marc, Matt and John to battle it out and decide the best Gameboy Advance game ever released! Rivalries formed, friendships shattered... iTunes and Stitcher gamethesystem.co/podcast Sponsored by facebook.com/pg/1989arcadebar #RetroGames
The imaginatively titled Karate Chop from Australian developer Melbourne House had you karate chopping - and kicking - your way through an impressive array of adversaries. This one’s a bit of a hidden gem, it’s actually a very good fighting game #c64 #retro #commodore64
Is there a good home port of the amazing arcade game Double Dragon? This Atari 2600 version is widely regarded as the worst. Which is very impressive considering how amazingly awful the C64 version is. The game deserved better... #retro #atari
“You control an armed WWII locomotive”. Well sometimes you gotta call a spade a spade I guess. The aptly called The Train has you playing a train, with guns! We aren’t sure if the concept has ever been done before or since, but regardless it’s unique! #retro #c64 #commodore64
Action RPG’s became a little popular on 16bit systems after the incredible Legend of Zelda Link to the Past. But there weren’t many that reached the same popularity. The exception was Secret of Mana on the SNES. Some would say it’s the best the genre has produced! #retro #snes
Aaahh... Real Monsters? Oh wait, that’s Aaahh!!! Real Monsters. I suppose it’s meant to be more alarming than discovery-like. We at Game the System haven’t played this title before, have you? #retro #sega #megadrive
The PlayStation 2 - the behemoth console from Sony that continued console world dominance after the PS1. A beautiful console design - even the logo on the front could be twisted to suit either vertical or horizontal orientation! #playstation #retro #sony #ps2
Spy’s Demise was a rare game, as we mentioned before. Well believe it or not it got a sequel! The Spy Strikes Back is the next (last?) game in the series and is equally as rare as the first game for the Commodore 64! #c64 #commodore64 #retro
On the podcast in 24 hours Marc, Matt and John will decide the best Gameboy Advance game OF ALL TIME, chosen from these 9 nominations. Which do you think should be the winner: Advance Wars The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap Rhythm Tengoku Harvest Moon: FoMT Wario Ware Inc Mario Pinball Land Sonic Advance Metroid Fusion Mario Kart Super Circuit
We’re hedging a bet you’ve never seen this game before. Spy’s Demise on the C64 is a very rare title and most would never have played it - including us! A collectors item in the true sense of the word #c64 #commodore64 #retro
