So it was today, October 17th, 1983 and Track & Field was first relea...BORING. Game sucks. Who cares.
Track & Field 290/365
Al Unser’s Turbo Racing 031/365
When this was released today in 1989 I wasn't hip to it. But over time and a low priced purchased I realized Al lent his name to a pretty good home racing game. Do you have it?
Double Dare 022/365
In 1990 all of us kids who were unable to meet Marc Summers were now able to sit on our carpet and take the physical challenge without the slime. And it was great...minus the lack of slime.
Ice Hockey 021/365
In all my arguments about how Nintendo is a better family of systems than Sega I will Sega had Hockey on lockdown with their EA Genesis releases but this is the Nintendo Entertainment System and they were on top of their 8bit game with this and one other famous Hockey title.
Jeopardy! 020/365
Another random release from October in January comes from 1988 by way of Jeopardy. Wait, What is a game that game from October of 1988?
Fester’s Quest 019/365
Two years before Christina Ricci destroyed the role of Wednesday Addams forever it was the year 1989 and Sunsoft made a video game about original Fester Addams.
Slalom 018/365
October is the king of Nintendo releases, at least for the games in my collection so let's celebrate this snowy classic in January rather than on the 17th of October like when it came out in 1986
Solomon’s Key 017/365
At some point in 1986 Nintendo let us play Solomon's Key at home but nowhere could I find any more information than the year. Is this all part of the key?
Tennis 014/365
Today Tennis was dropped into our laps in 1984 and it beep booped forever. There are many Tennis games on the old 8-bit systems and this ranks right at the top.
Chris Evert & Ivan Lendl Top Player Tennis 010/365
Two greats came together this month in 1990 to make a very mediocre game about the phenomenal sport of Tennis.
