There’s a Tekken character in my combat sports simulator! [UFC on SEGA Dreamcast]
I often think there are a ton of fighting games that get overlooked, but there has long been one that might come as a surprise to some: Ultimate Fighting Championship on the SEGA Dreamcast. The UFC as a concept has really evolved over the years, and so has its video games. While the mixed martial […]
My 29 Year Journey to Play Double Dragon V on SEGA Genesis
You’ve seen me stream Double Dragon V: The Shadow Falls for Super Nintendo if you’ve followed along over the years. It serves as one of the meme speedruns on the channel, but it’s highly unlikely anyone knows about my backstory with the game. It’s actually these memories that leave such a positive impression of the […]
Taito’s ‘Whack-a-Mole’ Arcade Cabinets
I’ve been doing a lot of traveling before the kids go back to school and it’s one of the busier times of the year at work for me, but I’ve recorded footage of arcade gameplay on a variety of games ranging from the brand new to games released in the 1990s. This week hasn’t given […]
Archive Interview: Hiro Chiwata on Konami’s DanceDanceRevolution Universe 3
I’ve been active in trying to archive any older video game content that I come across, and that has led to full features on GemuBaka such as the retrospectives on Vicious Circle and Feet of Fury. However, there are times where it appears I have failed to secure my very own content that has been […]
Retro Achiever Game #60: TMNT: Fall of the Foot Clan (Game Boy)
I was absolutely on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles bandwagon at the end of the 1980s, and this interest carried over into the multiple video games released for the franchise. TMNT: Fall of the Foot Clan was one of my earliest additions to my Game Boy library, and, at that time, it served as everything […]
Combing Through the Pages: Nintendo Power #78
Today serves up a new Combing Through the Pages feature, with this specific issue being the highlight out of pure chance. I was able to meet up with my brother-in-law recently, and he gave me an early birthday present: a copy of Nintendo Power #78 that he was able to find at Half Price Books. […]
I discovered that Tetris Giant is a lot of fun!
I’ve cooled off on my traveling for 2023 due to a variety of personal and professional reasons, but I’m starting to make my way back out to a couple of arcades, and I recently discovered something: I actually really enjoy playing Tetris Giant. I have personally only seen the cabinet in two different arcades, and […]
A curious visit to the local flea market
The flea market has long stood as a trusted outlet for game collectors to pick up random pieces to add to their lot, but these opportunities are a little slim where I live. They do occur, but mostly as part of annual festivals sprinkled throughout the area in the smaller villages. As a result, if […]
Just how many cover variants does Mega Man Anniversary Collection have?
Capcom was one of the companies in a position to leverage “retro gaming” in the aughts. During these years, this typically meant taking your old Nintendo Entertainment System or Super Nintendo Entertainment System video games and then packing them onto the Game Boy Advance. While Capcom certainly did this, it was also able to release […]
Gameplay Guide for Feet of Fury (Dreamcast)
Feet of Fury was a dancing-based rhythm game developed by Cryptic Allusion and published by GOAT Store Publishing for the SEGA Dreamcast. The kicker for this release was that it was an independent commercial release that began sale on June 7, 2003, just more than two years after SEGA discontinued its support for the console. […]
