AWESOME Land (Yes, it’s all in capitals), is a 16-bit retro throwback to classic 8-bit side scrolling platform games like Super Mario Brothers, Metroid and Sonic. The game is part parody, part homage. If you’re a child of the 80s and 90s who owned a Super Nintendo, it’ll feel familiar
Carl Williams writes, "Retro gamers are usually left out of the fun when it comes to newer platforms, most companies don’t see any value in catering to this niche market. In this new article, Retro Gaming Magazine will take a look at a collection of games that cater to a different area of retro gaming. Starting the festivities off is the “action” category which encompasses titles such as Sonic, Mario and more. Devices with physical buttons are obviously the choice of play with these games."
Triverse writes, "Retro is all the rage right now with everyone throwing stuff up that used to be old from Pepsi doing the “throwback” thing with their two most popular soda lines to game companies really getting behind the act of releasing old games on new hardware (shame none are doing it for magazines yet). Here are five 8-Bit style throwback titles to enjoy on your JXD S7300 Android Tablet (they work on other Android devices too but the S7300 is just so cool- find out in a second why)."
