Game Boy World #058: Ultraman Club/Zoids Densetsu
🕑 Added 2016-01-21 14:16:33 +0000 UTC Heeeey ~It's a double-header of mediocrity. I could have run this as two separate episodes, but it seemed to make more sense to combine them into a single treatise on poor game design. If I seem to go on a bit too long about Ultraman, that's because I spent a LOT of time trying to figure out its workings... and also because with a bit of refinement it actually could have been a decent game. Nothing quite so disappointing as a game that assembles the raw materials for competence but whiffs it in the home stretch.

I played the heck out of a borrowed friend's copy back in 1990. I can't wait to see what you have to say about it.

Next up is Catrap (just posted the script last night), THEN Cosmo Tank.

If I'm reading my release date timeline correctly, you're one review away from Cosmo Tank, correct?
