Bought Worms CD32 and got Director’s Cut
Bought Worms CD32 from eBay and loaded it up and on the menu it say’s Director’s Cut. Have I got a rare version? Maybe Team 17 decided to put the Director’s Cut version onto a few CD’s for the Amiga CD32 Version. I find this quite odd, but it’s not a bad thing lol. When […]
Bonk’s Revenge
Poor old Bonk doesn’t get the love he deserves here in the UK. While Amiga owners might be familiar with him under the name BC Kid (an adaptation of the Japanese PC Genjin name), the cancelled release of the PC Engine / Turbografx in the region meant that he was doomed to even greater obscurity […]
The Making Of Jack The Nipper
If you were the owner of an 8-bit computer, odds are you had this wonderful little game. Essentially a comic book come to life, the aim was to take control of precocious nipper Jack and cause as much mayhem as possible. Developer, Greg Holmes, explains how the game came to be. During the early Eighties, […]
Super Mario Sunshine Unofficially Ported To Nintendo DS In Super Mario 64 DS ROM Hack
Super Mario Sunshine might not be every retro gamer’s favourite outing of the famous plumber, but its quirky mechanics sure do attract a loyal fan-base.

Mega Drive Heroes ‘ToeJam & Earl’ Set For Funky Return
One of the most disappointing aspects of gaming is seeing how few of Sega’s flagship 16-bit franchises are still being used today. While Streets of Rage and Golden Axe may have to remain as distant memories, ToeJam & Earl on the other hand appears to be making a funkadelic comeback.
ToeJam & Earl Are Bringing Funk Back
There are very few hard truths in gaming, but we’re pretty sure that one of them is that the hobby is greatly diminished whenever ToeJam & Earl are absent. Funktron’s coolest duo hasn’t been sighted since ToeJam & Earl III was released back in 2002 for the original Xbox, with plans for a sequel on […]
Newly Announced ‘Raspberry Pi 2’ Brings More Power To The Pocket Retro Gaming Powerhouse
Since February 2012, gamers worldwide have had access to a low-cost credit-card sized computer that fulfils many of their retro gaming needs. From unofficial ways of gaining more Nintendo 3DS Streetpasses to a fully fledged emulation system, the Raspberry Pi has just opened up even more gaming avenues through a much needed update – bringing […]
Wipeout 3 Special Edition
While many people cite WipEout 2097 as their favourite entry in the series, we’re willing to bet that many of those players missed out on the excellent WipEout 3 Special Edition. Released only in PAL territories during 2000, the game attracted little coverage and did little to bump up sales for the futuristic racing franchise […]
