Say-Gaaaah!
(lemmy.world)
Years ago I inherited my wife's family's Game Gear. After a recap, and replacing the backlight, I started tracking down games to play on it. It's been great exploring a whole library of games that I skipped out on as a kid! (I was a Nintendo kid) Now I have a nice little library of carts to play on this beast of a 90's handheld.
Oh god, I'm so fucking sorry. Do you have like a donation page for your therapy bills or something.
It's not a bad game, it's just that it's full of insta-death, has no pause or save features, and there is no Continue screen should you fail. If we stopped because we were being called to dinner, it meant having to play....the whole....game....again....all the way from the start. Proudly, we did eventually beat it, but mother of fuck
🤣
It's not the worst thing I've ever played, but yeah... Sonic Spinball is a mess! Lol
Not something I'll ever actually try to beat, but interesting to mess with when I have some time to kill.
Fortunately the Genesis version doesn't have any of those issues (aside from the first stage, ironically enough, there's only one insta-death place in each of the other stages), though it is weird that the portable version doesn't have a pause or save function.
