I'm posting this week's piece a little early to make up for last week's delay. This is another one of those difficult episodes I had to power through the best I could, although I couldn't seem to get past stage two of RoboCop to save my life thanks to that terrible face-match minigame. Ah well. Things will get better soon! There are some interesting Game Boy releases on the horizon. Now that I'm nearly through the murky mediocrity, the pace should pick up shortly. Thanks for bearing with me.

RoboCop & Play Action Football retrospective: Gridironman | Game Boy Works #117

Nintendo publishes a football game, and an arcade hit comes to Game Boy after being filtered through the soupy green monochrome of the Amstrad CPC. They're not great! This is not fulfilling video game content! Let's hurry through and get along to the next. OK, thank you, please drive through. Video Works is funded through Patreon (http://www.patreon.com/gamespite) — support the show and get access to every episode up to two weeks in advance of its YouTube debut! And be sure to check out the Retronauts podcast (http://www.retronauts.com), where I (and many others!) tackle a much wider array of classic gaming topics each week.
