Retro-Core! (ep09)

Super Nintendo Entertainment SystemImage via Wikipedia


Retro-Core is produced by a guy (called Yakumo) who lives in Japan and tries to cover a ton of classic, rare, or weird video games. He shows footage of them in action, talks briefly about them, and gives a hands on opinion.









More games than ever before plus a brand new feature called East2West that shows how games are bastardized for the western market. In this first feature we take a look at what happened to NCSâs very colourful Ranma 1/2 when Irem released it in the States. Other goodies include Super Bikuriman on the SFC for Shite of the Month â Arcade Columns â97 â Saturn Sega Rally â Mobile Phone Metal Slug STG â Sharp X68000 Detana Twinbee (originally filmed for RC Vol.9) â Dreamcast Blue Submarine No.6 â Tech Romancer for the Anime Corner â Mega Drive Valis III â PSX Ridge Racer â Super Famicom Kikikaikai â Game Gear fatal Fury Special and Famicom Codename Viper. Thatâs whopping 13 different games or 14 if you count the East2West section as two different games.

Two new features are introduced in this volume which are "The Anime Corner" which shows the introduction from one of the many Japanese love adventure games out there and "Shite of the Month" which you can probably guess what that's about.

Games covered in volume 7 are Mega Drive Virtua Racing, Saturn Elevator Action Returns, PlayStation G-Darius, Super Famicom Chomakai Mura (Super Ghouls & Ghosts), Master System Dynamite Dux, Dreamcast Fushigi Dungeon and Arcade Mercs.

Soul Eater (ep. 01)

Death Weapon Meister Academy.Image via Wikipedia
I know, I know, "Funimation" isn't exactly an alternative to the mainstream, as a matter of fact it has become THE mainstream producer of cookie-cutter Anime here in the states. So what? I was turned onto "Soul Eater" by a dear friend and I'm breaking the rules.



This one goes out to you Missy...
