I wasn’t aware this was a 1-person studio. Donut Dodo is amazing! I can’t recommend this one enough!

Based on Flynn’s work on Donut Dojo alone, this will be an immediate purchase for me.

I really liked their output for GameCube, PS2, and Xbox.

Many people forget too that the DS got many older folk to buy DS’ with the touch generation line. My parents (non gamers) ended up both getting systems and even duplicates of their favorite games. They’d still play them to this day if they could. It scratched that itch that mobile games just can’t got them.

Never owned it, but I remember seeing it in the store upon release.

I would argue that 8 was better than 7, and I also love this type of pettiness

I foresee their next hardware being much smaller, and more of streaming device. Probably still able to download some games. But much smaller than even the Series S.

Great list…though I’d personally switch #2 and #3. Everyone will have their own ranking, of course, but this is great!

Donut Dodo was one of my most played games of ‘22! It’s really an amazing game! I’m excited for this, though hopefully it comes to console as well.

@Sketcz No, sorry, mine are all the US versions that are on the wiki. I guess I meant I had 4 of the screens for Zelda 1, and 5 for Zelda 2 (and 3 of the sticker/game tip cards!).

Oh, I do have 4 different screens is Zelda, and 5 of the sequel (and some duplicates). Let me know if you find a solution I’d be glad to help!

I have quite a few of these cards. I just went through them, and unfortunately I don’t have any scratched ones that I kept. I tried the isopropyl alcohol and q-tip but couldn’t get to the symbol. It seems to be better at taking the ink off the card than the scratchy part.

I would argue Shadow Dancer is better than Revenge of Shinobi and Shinobi III. Much better.

Glad to see Shadow Dancer here! It’s my favorite Genesis game-and much better than the other Shinobi games imho.

I’d also put Ghostbusters on the list-but that’s just me!

I’m intrigued by the screen shots…and I liked Moon. Will keep this on the radar.

Yes! They had me at the concept…but was only cemented in by staying it’s produced by Flynn’s Arcade. I look forward to this!

I also recommend any fans of the retro arcade titles to try an earlier release of theirs: Donut Dodo!

I’d probably choose Tetris 99 as my favorite, though Tetris DS is a close second.

Also, it’sa great time to be a Tetris fan. Between Tetris 99, Tetris Connected, and PuyoPuyo Tetris, you really can’t go wrong.

I point out this time frequently as when things dipped for me, as a gamer, too, so it’s interesting to see developers comment on why that is.

Another part of the puzzle, I believe, is with gaming systems not really having to worry as much about limitations. It seems like the limitations of the classic systems made the developers breathe creativity into their work.

I don’t play much for schmups-but Truxton was one of the first games I had on the Genesis! I’d love to play it again! If this comes to console I’m sold…or I may need to actually playing games on PC

@Bomberman64 Oh, duh. Yes I forgot that apparently Thanks.

Great list! Personally I’d put FF8 over 7, and DQ11 over 8…though I understand I may be in the minority here. Also I get the cultural impact of FF7.

I think this is cool, and am intrigued. The Remix hardware, however, is said to allow cartridge games to be played/added, though on the picture provided it appears to only have a disc drive?

The original Joe Montana Football on the Genesis is my favorite sports game of all time. I still go back to play regularly!

I liked Dead Rising CTYD more than the original. It was a fun port. Part of the problem for me in the original was the tiny text.

This is my favorite fps of Al time. We played this in college a ton!

Wait, that isn’t a sea horse? Wow, I’ve been waiting 30 years to fight a sea horse and it’s for nothing.

6 probably deserves top honors, though it didn’t have the cultural impact of 7. 8 is also too low for my tastes, which depending on the day I like even more than 6. of course, everyone is gonna have their own ranking though.

Pretty solid list, though personally I’d put Twin Snakes quite a bit higher on the list.

Guess I’m not surprised, but bummer! Kudos to the team for taking a risk, even if it didn’t pan out.

@evanc Yep! It was the one I got right away too! I love this thing!

The Famicom colored GB micro was also released in the US.

I loved Truxton as a kid! May have to get that! I wish there was a digital option...

I think I was the only one who liked filling the gba sp screen with Gameboy games

This looks interesting...I’m doubtful that it’ll go over, but I may pick one up.
