Game 107 from the NES shelf for #RandomGameSaturday is Yoshi
I grew up with the Game Boy version, so I have much less time spent on this version. I wouldn’t call this a heavy hitter in the puzzle genre, but it still has solid gameplay and cute baby Yoshis that need to be fed.

I accomplished what I set out to do and picked up the Retro Achievements mastery for Great Greed on Game Boy! This is the 72nd game beaten on stream while playing RA (11th mastery), and the 87th game I've beaten in 2025.
Thanks for the recommendation @yokoikids.bsky.social !

New blog post time!
This week's game is Wizard Fire, the follow-up to Data East's D&D-inspired Gate of Doom that really doesn't stray far from it at all. However, an injection of style ends up adding some substance alongside it, resulting in a game that I found myself quite a bit more endeared to:

I started Perfect Dark Zero, and we found out the "Zero" refers to the gravity in the game.
So far this is a game in which I'm liking some things, and not so much liking other things. I still feel like seeing this one through for now.
Thanks again to @ryyudo.bsky.social for the clip!

Game 9 off the XBox 360 shelf for #RandomGameSaturday - Crash of the Titans.
Deep in the Vevendi era of Crash Bandicoot, this game spins the series into beat ‘em up territory, with the ability to control multiple enemy characters.
This one is a bit out there, but it’s alright.

I recently showed a number of doodles I've done over the past few years, and that mentioned "Happy Tentacle Gambit" from X-Men Vs. Street Fighter.
I found my actual reference photo to show what the heck I was talking about. Someone posted this frame from the game, and I doodled it.
