The games Brandon got from Good Deal Games (Patreon)
Content
I guess it's a little blurry, oops. But yeah, two episodes back I (brandon) recommended buying games at Good Deal Games because they're just a regular store! And they have games in stock that are expensive on ebay. And if you mention insert credit you can get genesis games $5 off.
So yeah, here are the things I got. Beggar Prince and Magic Girl are two Taiwanese games that superfighter team localized. the quality of the cartridge and manual and everything is pretty nice! And I think all genesis releases should go cardboard, it's less wasteful.
the 3 genesis games in the back are all piko interactive ones. they're cheap feeling and sometimes have the wrong sized label on them, but Magic Warrior is one of the more playable Taiwanese RPGs on the console. Water Margin is like Knights of the Round but more simplified (too bad), and Yang Family is a bit more engaging gameplay-wise but less visually striking.
Implode was the first (I think) homebrew turbografx game to get pressed to disc back in the day, something like 2010. The original guy doesn't even have any of these anymore.
Skyhammer meanwhile is a Jaguar game I always wanted to get. It's one of those unreleased but complete enough type games that Songbird releases, much more complete than most of the stuff they bring out. It was a Rebellion game, and is far and away the best looking 3D on the jaguar. Like all Jaguar games it basically sucks but is still interesting because it feels like if video games were described to aliens and then they made some. If they'd been able to bring stuff like this out at the start maybe they would've had something with that platform.
Here's a video of it... amazingly the jaguar still hasn't been emulated so it's hard to find good footage (without somebody talking over it). Somehow stuff like this that's barely holding together feels like the Most Cyberpunk Thing in the 90s vision of that concept.
