What better way to ring in a Sunday quite like the 3DS remake of the ‘97 classic Star Fox 64, and the Nintendo 2DS, with all the charm of the 3DS but with better ergonomics and none of the eye strain!

…That’s pretty much the post aside from the usual “each item sold separately” kind of ramble we do. Talk about your lazy Sundays am I right? :D

EDIT: The PS4 version has Sold.

D’ya like dags?

Well you don’t want to hesitate picking up a copy of Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition for either the PS4 or Xbox One! The base game is already an incredible tale of gritty crime and cop drama mixed with fantastic and intuitive martial arts combat, but the definitive editions ups the graphic resolution, tunes up the environmental lighting and weather effects and adds some new destructible environments to throw your opponents through.

It’s not just visual upgrades either, there’s over 21 different vehicle, outfit & combat packs included AND there’s three story expansions such as the weird and over the top stories Nightmare in Northpoint which has Wei squaring off with Jiangshi’s and other spooky enemies, or the clear homage to Bruce Lee’s Enter the Dragon with the Zodiac Tournament. The last story expansion is the Year of the Snake which takes place directly after the main story and has Wei and a fellow cop teaming up to try and stop a doomsday cult.

If you’ve never played Sleeping Dogs, or you just experienced it on the original 7th gen hardware, it’s definitely worth checking out the definitive editions.

Also if you play the Xbox version on a Series X you can use the systems FPS boost to up the frame rate from 30 to 60fps and you better believe that makes an already good game even better :D

We may have sold those 3 heavy hitters we posted last week pretty quickly, but those aren’t the only quality N64 games we’ve got!

Start the weekend off right with a great mix of classic N64 action like some 3D Pokemon battling in Stadium, a fantastic Mario Kart alternative in Diddy Kong Racing, one of the legends of wrestling games with WCW vs NWO Revenge, the arcadey CTE simulator NFL Blitz 2001 and all the rest! They’re hitting the shelves as we post this so pop on in and check ‘em out :D

Let the thunder roar as you take to the skies in one of the shoot’em up genre’s most iconic series, we’ve got not one but two different Raiden titles here in the shop!

We normally don’t go backwards like this but Raiden IV keeps the series going strong with crazy enemy fire and you returning the favor with even crazier weaponry and power ups. The graphics are the typical arcade quality you would expect, but the soundtrack is jam packed with high energy rock and blistering solos to keep you engaged… it’s so damn good that they even included a soundtrack disc along with the game! Also if you have an Xbox One or the Series X console this game is playable via backwards compatibility.

Ya know how we said “two” Raiden games? Well we kind of lied there cause Fighters Aces includes not one, not two, but three different Raiden games all on one disc! It includes Raiden Fighters, Raiden Fighters 2 Operation Hell Dive and Raiden Fighters Jet. So if one Raiden game just won’t do, then treat yourself to Aces and you’ve got a whole lot of awesome arcade action ready to go :D

Gonna toss this up right quick for a short shift Sunday! We’ve got a great mix of PS4 games hitting the shelves!

We’ve got David Cage and Quantic Dream’s Detroit Become Human which explores what it means to be human, conscious and can robots feel emotion. With 3 different playable characters and many branching story paths, it’s definitely worth checking out if you want a more cinematic style experience.

Next we’ve got Nier Automata which we have definitely hyped up plenty of times in the past. Just an incredible game pondering your very existence, meaning or meaninglessness of life and breaking cycles, all while wrapped up in a mix of hack and slash combat, bullet hell shooter with very charming characters and overall stylish presentation.

Last but not leastly it’s time to turn your brain off and smash some damn cars, it’s Burnout Paradise Remastered! This 360/PS3 era game took the classic Burnout style gameplay and tossed it into a big open world map. There’s plenty of secret areas to find, different types of racing events to partake in and one of the coolest features in a game, in order to unlock new cars in your garage you’ve gotta encounter it on the map and run that son of a gun off the road! Not only does this game have the Big Surf Island and extra cars all available but thanks to some smart moves at Criteron they actually redesigned the celebrity cars like the Delorean and the Ecto 1 to be license free so they might not “be” them, but they’re pretty darn close! …just don’t buy this game if you don’t like Guns n Roses’ Paradise City, you have to hear it every, single, time you start this game up.

We’re open till about 3-4ish pm today everybody, so swing on by soon if you want to add a game to your collection for yer day off :D

Getting ready to hit the green? HOLD IT!

You might have to make a tough decision with this one, cause this black label copy of Mario Golf Toadstool Tour right here is actually factory sealed! The only thing that we must point out is that there is a small 1-1/4 inch sized rip on the top back side of the case, which you can see in this nifty close up :D

So come on by and take a better look if ya want, whether you’re putting this 23 year old factory sealed game up on display, or being the first one to crack it open and enjoy some fantastic golfing by the dev team Camelot, we think a sealed copy will do the trick for both options.

Speaking of coming by, we do want to give you all a heads up that tomorrow Sunday the 11th we’re going to close the store up around 3-4pm depending on how dead it is. Thanksgiving Sunday tends to be a little on the slow side and we don’t want our celebratory TV dinners getting too cold ;D

But if you’re looking for a Sunday video game fix we hope you pop by early on and check out the wares :)

Got a double whammy of Hedgehog based games hitting the 360 shelf just in time for the weekend! We’re so hyped that we’re posting it before we have a chance to do Sonic Saturday’s or Sundays, we’re missing out on alliteration just for the sake of showing ‘em off :D

You can go with Sonic Unleashed which has the wonderful day and night stage mix. During the day you’re the regular blue blur Sonic tearing through stages at the speed of sound, but during the night it turns into a bit of a God of War style action game where you turn into a hulking Werehog and rampage through stages shredding through enemies with heavy hitting combos, grabs and air combos.

Or you can travel through the history of Sonic games with Sonic Generations! Each stage is from a different era of Sonic games, from the Genesis era with Green Hill and Sky Sanctuary, the Dreamcast era with Speed Highway and City Escape, or the Modern era with Crisis City and Rooftop Ruin. To make the stage variety even better you actually play each stage twice, first in a 2D Classic Sonic style and then you follow it up with the 3D Modern style with stuff like multi rail segments, drift boosting and turning enemies into scrap with the speed boost attack.

To make these games even better they’re both Backwards Compatible on the Xbox One lineup and the Series X console, and if you happen to play them on the Series X you can use the FPS Boost feature to bring them up from 30 to 60 fps. It sounds a bit hyperbolic but they almost feel like completely brand new games if you’ve ever experienced them on the original 6th & 7th gen.

EDIT: Pokemon Trozei has Sold.

Hey hey everybody, we just wanted to update you right away that there is some serious construction going on across the street from us and it has taken out all of our out front street parking. Unfortunately we don’t know how long it’ll be going for but we just wanted to let you know that if you’re driving down you may need to try the side streets for any available parking, we apologize for any inconvenience.

Also we figured since we’ve got some bad news may as well sprinkle in some good, we’ve got the weird and wonderful spin off Pokemon title Trozei! for the DS! …yes it’s worth doubling up on the exclamations :D you slide Pokemon across the screen both vertically or horizontally to match 4 together, then if you set off a Trozei chance you only 3 then 2 together trying to clear the whole stage in one combo. It’s easy to learn, difficult to master and very addictive if you’re a fan of tile matching puzzle games.

Damn gotta roll out the red carpet for these three fantastic titles hitting the N64 cabinet!

You know it, you love it, and if you’re a diehard Nintendo fan you’ve probably already got the Switch 2 waiting for the remake, it’s Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time! Yes the absolute classic in it’s original, non-3DS, non-soon to be remade version. If you want to give it one more play through, or need this to do a direct comparison when the new version comes out, then this would be perfect for ya.

Next we’ve got Nintendo’s first entry in the Paper Mario series, again just another N64 classic with great snappy and funny dialog, charming and stylish graphics, and despite being an rpg really fun and engaging gameplay and mechanics to keep you hooked. If you’ve never played it then you should definitely see what all the hype is about ;D

What could possibly take the top billing over these two juggernauts for the console? Why something pretty darn rare of course, it’s part of the Mystical Ninja series and it’s a fantastic game to boot, it’s Goemon’s Great Adventure! This is a 2.5D side scroller (think of Kirby 64 the Crystal Shards) action game that can not only be enjoyed with 2 player simultaneous gameplay, but spoilers! You can actually unlock a hidden 4 player mode too. On top of that it’s just a really great game with Konami nailing the graphics, controls and gameplay. The only negative we can think of for this one is it does require a Memory/Controller Pak in order to save.

EDIT: This item has Sold.

Why bother with Guitar Hero and Rock Band when you can jam along to your favorite pop and rock hits with everyone’s favorite primate Donkey Kong!

We’ve got the DK Bongo bundled with a copy of Donkey Konga 2 hitting the shelves! Show off your rhythmic skills as you slap and clap along to tracks like Good Charlotte’s The Anthem, Smash Mouth’s All Star, Shaggy’s Bombastic and Incubus’ Wish you were here… can you tell this game came out in 2004? :D
