The format of these posts is simple: let's discuss a specific game or series!
Based on a recommendation I received, we'll change things up by actually not discussing a game or series like in earlier posts...
Let's discuss the 8-bit era of gaming. What is your favorite game of this generation? What aspects do you like about it? What doesn't work for you? Feel free to share any thoughts that come up, or react to other peoples comments. Let's get the conversation going!
If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

It came out in 1992, at the end of the NES lifecycle. The SNES was already out and many people were only interested in games on that platform. This is why end of life games like Little Samson did not sell as well as they should have, and consequently, only had one small production run. That, in turn, is why these games are among the most expensive and sought after by collectors. There are just way less of them out there! I would love to have a Little Samson cartridge, but I don't have $3000 to spend on a Nintendo game lol
