Posted on February 6, 2017 by baudattitude

Posted on February 4, 2017 by baudattitude

Thank Heaven for Save States

Posted on February 3, 2017 by baudattitude

Getting around to Klonoa: Empire of Dreams the other day was a pretty deep dive into the backlog.  I’d had the cartridge for probably 15 years and it needed to be played. It was not the oldest thing in the … Continue reading →

I Kept Waiting For The Shark

Posted on January 30, 2017 by baudattitude

Right, then.  Something a little different from the norm to talk about tonight. “One Last Chance” is a bit of an odd duck as visual novels go.  It’s originally in English, features voice acting, has characters who are actually in … Continue reading →

I Was Young, I Needed The Page Views

Posted on January 29, 2017 by baudattitude

So I played through The Typing of the Dead: Overkill a couple of nights ago.  I could talk about that.  But, I also see the google search terms that lead people to find this blog… and, well, maybe I should … Continue reading →

Posted on January 26, 2017 by baudattitude
