Jody Mulhern of Brash Games writes "When details of the 3DS first surfaced, its ability to play retro titles via some sort of online store was, more or less, taken for granted. Like the Wii before it, Nintendo launched the Virtual Console where, for a small fee, players could take a break from their quality 3DS retail purchase to discover the downloadable classics that they may have missed in the past".
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "..perhaps the most impressive aspect of the system was how it was able to take 8 and 16-bit console experiences and shrink them down to a monochrome display and STILL have them be a blast to play, sometimes even being considered in higher regard than their flashier (and colored) counterparts."
GameCrate: " Super Mario Land just celebrated its 30th anniversary. The title launched for the Game Boy in Japan on April 21, 1989, with August and September releases following in North American and European territories, respectively. It doesn't look like much these days, but the monochromatic platformer was quite groundbreaking in 1989 — it provided Game Boy adopters with a full-fledged Mario game. While somewhat clunky by today's standards, it had enough polish to make it a worthwhile buy. Add some really creative level design and charming weirdness, and you've got what's easily one of the most unique Mario titles ever."
BY THE GROWNGAMING TEAM: Video game villains. With great writing, even the most battle-hardened gamer can come to understand the rationale behind their enemy’s actions and even begin to empathise with them. Then there are game villains that you just hate. It could be their atrocious actions but it could equally be because of their stupid smile or a bug that meant that you just couldn’t beat them.
It’s safe to say that this article will have spoilers, as some of these reasons are tied to the motives behind the villain’s actions.
Here are the video game villains that we hate the most.
Seymour in FFX cuz that bitch can be hard to kill at times and anytime you die you’re forced to rewatch those long cutscenes over and over
Why is Wesker there? Dude is a badass.
If there was a gaming villain I legit hated it was Deathshead from Wolfenstein: The New Order the game devs fantastically made him a completely irredeemable character, so much so that when he died you felt he deserved more punishment.
Sephiroth.. I mean the mothafcker burn my village my mother burned alive & he also killed Aeris & almost kill Tifa, there is no more hating than that.. Omnislash in da face is the only justice when you do something like that & that's what he got.
