Joe & Mac: A Prehistoric Blast from the Past
When I was a duckling, my parents were responsible for buying all the games for the SNES. After all, my dad actually got it as some sort of gift from his workplace, and for some inexplicable reason, I was too “afraid” to play any of the games when I was especially young, meaning my parents…
Silly Scoundrels: King K. Rool
The Duck’s first silly scoundrel debuted in 1994 with Rareware’s Donkey Kong Country.

Trine 2: Demo Review

It Only Took Me 26 Years to Get 101% in Donkey Kong Country
The title pretty much sums it up. I grew up with the original Donkey Kong Country trilogy on the SNES. I adore these games and have played them countless times over the years. And while I have managed to get 102% in the second game and 103% in the third game, motivated to do so…
Kirby’s Dream Land 3 Review
For the last ten years, Kirby’s Dream Land 3 and I have kept passing each other by, with no more than mere glances in the other’s direction before ultimately going our separate ways. Whether in the form of a physical SNES cartridge or a quick download vie the Wii U Virtual Console, I have had…
