If you love North & South as much as I do, there's a remake for the Switch called The Bluecoats, which captures the spirit of the original perfectly and is just as addictive.

North and South is so much fun!! My neighbor had it and we played it all the time! Sadly, I don't have it in my collection, BUT I DO have the Switch version. It's not AS good in a way, but it is still a lot of fun. The downsides are the load times and that the computer STILL is a jerk, but like... MORE of a jerk now.

@EriChanTheRetroGamerNerd9 ай бұрын
@@JohnRiggs My theory is that they aren't re-releasing them because sometime during early 7th gen they figured out they can make more money on old games by selling them individually for download. Notice how many of the retro complilations nowadays (Atari 50, that SNK compilation) charge close to full price for fewer games?

Speaking of shooters. I had recently downloaded a bunch of SNES games. I can say it that way right? I recently started playing, when I found it it in the collection, I hadn't even heard of before.

I heard you say Hammer Lock Wrestling and I gasped & sat up quickly as my 17yr old daughter looks at me like what the heck dad.Anyway yeah I owned a Hammer Lock Wrestling Prototype for Super Nintendo about 10-12 yrs ago. Sold it for $300 Anyway how do you price and value stuff like that John prototype/one of a kinds. This was way before price charting was around not even sure if they list prototypes on there site. I still have a Nintendo NES Test Station i would love to have a $/value put on it in todays market. Any insite?

That's plain clickbait. 10 different consoles, says the title: Then the video content, proceeds to show 3 games from the same console, with only its version being different: such as Gameboy: Colour, Model-1 or Model-advance. With only 45% of those supposedly different consoles, not being straight from a Nitendont, factory. A click-bait siren; would be mo entertaining than that video.
