Author: Masamune I don’t know about you, but where I am it’s a dark, windy and stormy Halloween night! Welcome to SNES Hub’s first annual Halloween review! Starting this year, I will try to have a spooky themed game review posted on Halloween night. This year’s game is Scooby-Doo…
Author: John Legendoffzelda There’s a distinctive, almost iconic, visual style to the Steven Spielberg-produced 1994 film of The Flintstones. It’s one that Ocean badly fumbled when they translated the movie to the Super Nintendo. While the movie may have been a dumb comedy, it also had a grand production design…
Author: sull56ivan2010 Most people are aware of the NHL series as far as 16-bit systems go. It is one I love on the Genesis and there are a few on the SNES I’ve gotten great enjoyment out of; especially the ’96 edition during my senior year of high school back…
Author: Indy1988 In this age of violence and action, even in the SNES era, nobody thought that a farming game would work so well. Sure, there’s games like SimFarm for the PC. But it didn’t really catch on until Yasuhiro Wada came up with a farming idea after he visited…
Author: sull56ivan2010 The Bases Loaded series is something I haven’t been huge on as far as discovering older sports games. Regarding the first ones on NES, they are okay, but the fielding was kind of shoddy. It had the presentation, looking like a game on TV, but not the greatest…

By Indy1988 When the Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest series (or Dragon Warrior to some people) were released to the public, they defined what makes a role-playing game. These games went beyond pencil-and-paper stats and long hours of leveling up a wizard or warrior. Video games made this possible…
Author: John Legendoffzelda The one interesting part of Ocean’s leaden adaptation of RoboCop 3 is that their game precedes the film by an entire year. Not many licensed games have ever accidentally spoiled the entirety of their sources before people got to see the source. But then, there wasn’t any…
Author: sull56ivan2010 In the 90s, there was a push for nostalgia. Digital Eclipse was paving the way with tons of arcade ports from a number of Atari, Midway, and Williams games. Namco was doing its Namco Museum series. In between all that was Frogger. A lot of things happened…
Author: Indy1988 Any retro gamer may remember Bomberman. He is the little blue and white robot that blasted his way onto many a multiplayer battle that has probably killed many a friendship almost as bad as Mario Kart or Halo. Bomberman hasn’t been as active as he used to…
