    There's a mode in the WWE 2K games, that let's you play classic matches and asks you to recreate moments from the match for rewards, it also includes video clips. I think this has been a feature of 2K games for a while at least as far back as WWE 2K13, with the Attitude Era Mode, there was a 30 years of Wrestlemania mode in 2K14 also.

    Love that Cotton game (Been great year plus of resurgence for her, Umihara Kiwase, and Pochi/Metal Max thanks to Success) Great call with that PuyoPuyo rhythm game too, I never heard of that and want to try it out now. Watching it I saw the fish leg guy and characters that reminded me of one of my fav SNES RPG imports no one ever talks about- that kinda started puyo puyo too- Madou Monogatari Hanamaru. Please Riggs, patch that with English fan translation and play- it was such a fun, relatively short- but quirky, colorful RPG I really loved that and had zero expectations!

    The SEGA Dreamcast is still on my top 1 list to get. One for OG condition and one for modding. Playing the games (i am very new to the platform) from time to time on the emulator so these tips are very handy. Thank you.
    If you love Borderdown you definitly love Sturmwind on the SDC.

  • @theusher2893
    @theusher2893 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's a crime that none of the Cotton games made it stateside (except maybe one on the TurboGrafx, but I could be wrong) and Rainbow Cotton was easily the best of them. It felt like Starfox meets Nights. Also, Trigger Heart was ported to XBLA, that's when I finally got to play it.

    Imo the Saturn was the best Sega console, better than the Dreamcast. Saga goofed up in various aspects with the Dreamcast, like they shouldn't made it to run dvd like the ps2 instead of CDs like the PS1, that hindered its competitiveness. Also the controller although an innovative shape, that would later give origin to the greatest controller ever made the Xbox controller (my opinion), it's uncomfortable to hold and play for any longer time
