NEStalgia Present: S.C.A.T. Mission 3

John — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 17:48:02 +0000

Me showing the 3rd Mission in S.C.A.T.: Special Cybernetic Attack Team on the NES.
Playlist: http://fr.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=4C589B930445839D

Note: Because im lazy and YT has made an error when i was uploading Mission 3 i needed to restart the game to Mission 1.
So i have used my GameGenie but only 2 codes to help me: Longer immunity and Start with more energy but i dunno why and these codes are made me invincible for some reason…

So all the last Missions are done with nonchalantly and laziness, so think they are more a “show up” to the next Missions.

(Anyway i suck in 2D Shooter if you want to see some great guys in these type of game just go see BrYaN5555 and Nintenga.)

Summer Carnival ’92 Recca サマーカーニバル’92 烈火 NES FC

John — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 02:55:16 +0000

Without a doubt the best and HARDEST shmup on Nintendo’s 8-bit wonder. Probably one of the very first manic shmups that are now more common in today’s breed. This one is definitely not for the one who needs anger managment.

Until Game Reproductions started selling their copies of this, this was one of the rarest games on the console. It had a very limited release in the Japanese market. I think most of the original Famicom cartridges of this were given out in Naxat Soft’s 1992 Summer Carnival shmup tournament. I am not sure.
