Here's a fun little game from Activision for the Atari 2600. Shoot all the things, but don't get shot yourself. The better you do, the more points and lives you get! But be careful, because this game can be rather tough.
Part 2: https://youtu.be/jJjGOsr0ijk
Blog entry: https://princewatercress.blogspot.com/2024/04/princewatercress-plays-megamania-part-2.html
For this video, we play the other game mode, in which the missiles don't move with the player, and we also set the difficulty switch to A/Expert for slower missiles for good measure. Not surprisingly, this makes the game even tougher.

This game is fun, but the big thing is trying to position your osprey so you can swoop down and grab the fish. Once you figure that out, everything falls into place.

And now for the longplay. I ALMOST made it to the sixth sheet! Still an admirable attempt, regardless.
Subject: Ranking The Soundtrack - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES)
In this video classic game enthusiast Aqualung ranks the soundtrack for everyones favorite "love to hate it, hate to love it" good-bad game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on NES.
While the gameplay always was frustratingly stiff and difficulty was unforgiving (still another childhood game I can't finish) I do like the game, and personally find the music to be awesome. Then again, this is Konami and they most often did a hell of a job with the music, if not the game itself.

A shame this came out after the DS, this game could have gotten more attention. The game starts with The Red Dozers trying to get the Red Diamond back from the Skulkers. This leads to us using the Drill Dozer for the first time and getting used to how this thing works.

Before playing more of the game, we head to the training course that the game gives us to get a bit of a tutorial about more of the things we'll be seeing in the game. Don't worry, we'll be (re)-introduced to these things as the game goes on.

This time around, we go deeper into the ruins to find the Blue Diamond, and this time we have to go underwater. Before we can do that, though, we have to get a propellor from a brand new foe.

At this point in the game, we can unlock the secret stage for Area 1. Here, your socket lift skills with just one gear are going to be put to the test, but there's treasure in it for you if you can explore the area and complete the stage.

Thanks to a trick by the authorities, we end up thrown in prison. Thanks to the Red Diamond being hidden in the Drill Dozer, however, the Drill Dozer has a mind of its own, and its makes its way to Jill's cell for a breakout. What's next is one of the more convoluted stages in the game.

With his own plans falling apart around him, Croog (remember him?) goes to bizarre lengths to get rid of the Red Dozers, starting with destroying their headquarters, where Doug is recuperating. We need to destroy the drill missile that he sics on the headquarters in order to save Doug before taking the fight to Croog.

Before we take on Croog, we have access to another secret area! This time, we're entering the one in Area 2, which has two different routes. Amazingly, I picked the easier one for this video.

Now it's time to take the harder route. Guess what? It's the worse route, and the socket lift section at the very end is - strangely - one of the most convoluted things that I've ever seen in the game. Something that simple really shouldn't take six minutes.

In this video, we fight Croog one last time and get back the Red Diamond. We're not done yet, however, as we still have the rest of the treasures to get.

Before we start getting the rest of the treasures, I show off how I got a massive load of chips to clean out the store with. After that, we head to the Secret Area in Area 3 and play one of three routes leading to treasures.

For the other two routes, there's going to be a lot of rubber blocks. Also, second gear is going to be our friend.

This was supposed to be the easier path of Area 5's secret stage, but Murphy's Law kicks in and everything that could go wrong basically did. At least we're not doing insane platforming, though.

Blog entry: https://princewatercress.blogspot.com/2024/05/princewatercress-plays-drill-dozer-part_0553273670.html
Of all the secret areas, this one ended up being the easiest. It also contains the only treasures for Area 6, so we can now go back to the first five areas for what we missed.

We now head to Area 2 to pick up the treasures we couldn't get before. What amazes me is that I missed the last one and could have gotten it while playing through the main game. Oh, well.

For this video, we go treasure hunting in Area 4, and once again, we have to take to the skies in order to get one of the things we missed. Once again, I am glad the sky and underwater controls are one stage each.

Just when I thought I was done, it pulls me right back in! Here, we go back to the Red Dozers' Training Course and enter the one place we haven't been: the password room.
After damn near a month, it's here.
Honestly I need to go back and check this LP out... game looks neat. You know how I am about actually watching Let's Play's though... have to be in the right mood.

I've never seen the cartoon, sadly, so I don't know really know how good it is. The game, however, is alright, despite being short and a bit on the easy side. In the first video, we take on the first level of the game.

Blog entry: https://princewatercress.blogspot.com/2024/05/princewatercress-plays-widget-part-2-of.html
Before we can head to Stage 2, we have to head to Stage 3, as there is a transformation that we have to get there before we can head to Stage 2. Since Stage 3 doesn't take very long, we end up going to Stage 2 soon afterwards.

In this video, we go back to pick up some power-ups, then we head to Stage 4 to face Flim and Flam to stop them from putting sentient animals in an intergalactic circus. The end of the game is amazingly in sight, due to the game being so short.
