Super C takes this spot on the list because I could not find a working version of Contra, although I’ve read it exists.
Not a bad title, but whats behind this screen? Needless to say, I gave up on this pile of trash. No matter how much you fire at this cat you simply can not kill it, and to make matters worse if you try to run away the cat pounces right on Megaman, quickly draining his energy without even a hope of a chance of survival.
You start off at what seems to be a border checkpoint, perhaps USA/Canadian border for all I know, where you run head first into a bionic cat. The simple fact is that although the controls are super simple and intuitive, there is no level selection and the first level it starts you in is impossible. I have to be completely honest and say that I didn’t play this one for more than 5 minutes total, and a few extra for this article. But with such a strong franchise on the NES, why would Capcom have ported or allowed anyone to port it to the PC?Īgain the graphics are ugly, rendering Megaman into more of a blue dough-boy who downs E cans with swiftness, abusing their effects, instead of using them when he truly needs them. The series is among the most treasured of the NES franchises, with a total of 6 games on the NES and expanding over into the SNES generation. Megaman is another such title that earns itself a place in this article of shame. It didn’t follow the NES game at all, and in general it just wasn’t easy to start nor was it good enough to keep me hooked. Even though I now knew the commands, the game play was still so horrendous that I quickly removed all traces of the game.
The NES has a simple A, B and D-pad to worry about, and being familiar with NES emulation I can easy map those keys to my preference, but when it comes to a DOS game it seems they made the commands so cryptic it rendered the game unplayable for the first 10 minutes.Īfter looking up the key commands I quickly realized that I wished I hadn’t. Not only is it ugly, I was completely lost when it came to key functions. Not only was I wrong, I was completely wrong! The graphics, although I imagine the PC has a much bigger color palette, are so much worse than the NES that they’re laughably ugly. Bionic Commando is a game that I took right to, when I found it for the NES a year or so ago, so I figured the PC version would be much better.
