A Trip Through the SNES Classic: A Link to the Past

From what I’ve seen in fandom circles, A Link to the Past is one of the most beloved games in the Legend of Zelda series, right up there with the all-time classic, Ocarina of Time.

A Trip Through the SNES Classic: F-Zero

It’s shameful, I know, but up until I got the SNES Classic, I’d never played a game in the F-Zero series.  I didn’t even know what type of game that it was, though the title sounded familiar. For those in the same boat, F-Zero is a racing game set in the future.  It’s the seriesContinue reading “A Trip Through the SNES Classic: F-Zero”

And ever since then, we’ve all hoped toContinue reading “Kingdom Hearts III: The Best of Times and the Worst of Times”

A Trip Through the SNES Classic: Final Fantasy VI

Hey, everyone! This year, I’d like to try something different with my monthly video game reviews.  I was fortunate enough to get a Super Nintendo Classic as a present, and most of the titles are games that I’ve never played before.  So each month, I’m going to play a different game on the list andContinue reading “A Trip Through the SNES Classic: Final Fantasy VI”
