Check out my review of #Lunar2 on the #PS1 as part of my Top 100 PS1 games review Odyssey. This Remastered JRPG sequel doesn't change much, but just enough to become something truly special #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/12/ps1-... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6958303

Check out my review of the #SegaSaturn, Sega's most misunderstood console. Despite Sega itself almost conspiring to kill it, the console did have some good moments and games, especially in Japan #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/11/revi... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6909193

Check out my Top 10 list of #SegaSaturn games, which was frankly hard to write due to how Sega butchered the console, and because many of the best games were never ported West, but it does have some world-class games. #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/11/satu...

Check out my report on the Top 10-1 #SegaSaturn games according 2 Retro Sanctuary. This is the supposed pinnacle of its games, & it does indeed include many gems with #PanzerDragoon chief among them #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/11/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6883435

Check out my review of #PanzerDragoonSaga on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is one of the most mythical games ever released, and it frankly deserves its legendary, unmatched status #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/11/satu...

Check out my review of #PanzerDragoonII on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is the second game in the Panzer Dragoon franchise, improving on the first and pushing the console's boundaries #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/11/satu...

Check out my review of #NiGHTSintoDreams on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is the game Sega chose to launch their console instead of Sonic, and I think that was a massive mistake #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/11/satu...

Check out my thoughts on #StudioGhibli only pseudo-sequel, #TheCatReturns. This is a fun and rather short film in the Ghibli canon that is often unfairly dismissed. #Blutoid lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/11/stud... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6843023

Check out my review of #RadiantSilvergun on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This legendary shmup by #Treasure may be the most imported Saturn game from Japan #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/11/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6835839

Check out my report on the Top 20-11 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary. Two of the Saturn's best games are in this ten, and many great unported Shmups as well. #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6819557

Check out my review of #ClockworkKnight on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is another terrible platformer from that era that is remembered fondly by some #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6801874

Where the Hell is #ShiningForce? After posting my #Shining reviews, I decided to go back and repost the full series retrospective that looked at the entire history of the #Sega franchise. It's unlikely we will get a new Shining Force game, but we can dream lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/wher...

Check out my review of #ShiningForceII on the #Sega #Genesis as part of my Top 100 Genesis games review Odyssey. This is an advanced reposting of my 2017 review to coincide w/ my last #Shining posts #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/gene... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6783744

Check out my review of #ShiningForce on the #Sega #Genesis as part of my Top 100 Genesis games review Odyssey. This is an advanced reposting of my 2016 review to coincide with my last post #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/gene... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6775973

Check out my review of #ShiningForceIII on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This great TRPG also has two unlocalized sequels that are just as good #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6764583

Check out my review of #DragonForce on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This innovative mix of real-time and RPG strategy is easily one of the Saturn's best games #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6756823

Check out my report on the Top 30-21 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary. Most of these games are good, but some are impressive ports of games that were better on PCs. #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6749212

Check out my thoughts on #StudioGhibli and #HayaoMiyazaki masterpiece #SpiritedAway. I appreciate this film more every time I watch it; It's flooded with personality & character in every scene #Blutoid lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/stud... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6739508

Check out my review of #BurningRangers on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This innovative action game was brilliant at the time, but doesn't look too hot today #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6730835

Check out my review of #Astal on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This action-platformer looks nice, but it was a poor game to launch the Saturn instead of #Sonic #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6721565

Check out my review of #Shining the Holy Ark on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This first-person RPG is probably Camelot Software's weakest Shining game #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6709291

Check out my review of #GuardianHeroes on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This was a brilliant update of the Beat 'em Up genre by the legendary #Treasure #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/10/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6701528

Check out my report on the Top 40-31 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary. Finally, here is a list of mostly great games. Too bad most of them were not ported outside of Japan #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6693927

Check out my thoughts on #StudioGhibli #IsaoTakahata experimental project, #MyNeighborsTheYamadas. This is an adaptation of the comic strip #Nono-chan that goes over the mundane adventures of a typical family #Blutoid lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/stud... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6682976

Check out my review of #TheLegendOfOasis on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is the rather decent prequel to the cult-classic #BeyondOasis on the Genesis #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6677757

Check out my review of #DeepFear on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is a landmark Action-Horror that sadly did not age particularly well despite the effort #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6669355

Check out my review of #Lunar on the #PS1 as part of my Top 100 PS1 games review Odyssey. This charming JRPG was originally published by Working Designs, & is now remastered along with its sequel #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/ps1-... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6655563

Check out my review of #DarkSavior on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. Here is a very good game that is better than the sum of some rather mediocre parts. #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6648578

Check out my report on the Top 50-41 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary. The list is still not showing its strength, with Shmups and Fighters propping up some unimpressive games #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6641366

Check out my review of #ShinobiLegions on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. Surprisingly, this mediocre #Shinobi game was the only one released for the console #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6623556

Check out my review of #AlbertOdyssey on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is a half-decent JRPG that is ruined by #WorkingDesigns localization #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6616634

Where the Hell is #Onimusha ? In hopeful anticipation of the release of the latest Onimusha in 2026, I am reposting this retrospective that explores the quick rise and the decline of the series. #Blutoid lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/wher... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6606596

Check out my report on the Top 60-51 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary. This list of 10 is not that impressive, with some of the better games only released in Japan #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6599405

Check out my review of #MagicKnightRayearth on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This rather good Adventure game was only released West thanks to #WorkingDesigns #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/09/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6593786

Without any new game being added to my backlog, and maintaining a trend of playing 24 hours a week (not sustainable in the long run), it will take me 4 years and 95 days to finish all of it. #blutoid

Check out my report on the Top 70-61 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary. The list still features more duds than great games, showing an unfortunate weakness in the Saturn's library. #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/08/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6571964

Check out my thoughts on #StudioGhibli # HayaoMiyazaki masterpiece, #PrincessMononoke. This fantasy epic is simply one of the best movies ever made & a true reflection on both the suffering & beauty of life #Blutoid lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/08/stud... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6562418

Check out my review of #Herc'sAdventure on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This #LucasArts Action-Adventure is charming, but frankly lacks substance. #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/08/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6557929

Check out my review of #MegaMan8 on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. As expected, a Mega Man game looks great, plays great, and is undeniably fun. #Blutoid #Retrogaming #Capcom lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/08/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6550264

Check out my report on the Top 80-71 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary. While there are some great games, such as #Rayman, in the list, it is still proof of a great library #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/08/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6541723

Check out my review of #EnemyZero on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This was an early showcase of the Saturn's 3D abilities that didn't age that well #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/08/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6537551

Check out my review of #Rayman on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is the excellent and rather difficult start of #Ubisoft Rayman platforming series. #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/08/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6530581

Check out my review of #SovietStrike on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This is part of #EA hard-as-heck helicopter action #Strike series. #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/07/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6477452

Check out my report on the Top 90-81 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary; the basis of my #Saturn reviews list. The list still doesn't have many bangers #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/07/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6465136

Check out my review of #ShiningWisdom on the #Sega #Saturn as part of my Top 100 Saturn games review Odyssey. This Zelda-like take on the #Shining series has many flaws, but has its good parts #Blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/07/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6456193

Check out my report on the Top 100-91 #SegaSaturn games according to Retro Sanctuary; the basis of my #Saturn reviews list. Suffice it to say, the list does not begin with a bang #blutoid #Retrogaming lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/07/satu... www.pillowfort.social/posts/6450659

Check out my review of #TheLegendOfDragoon on the #PS1 as part of my Top 100 PS1 games review Odyssey. This was Sony's attempt at making a Final Fantasy game, & it largely worked despite some flaws #Blutoid #Retrogaming www.pillowfort.social/posts/6435817 lord-spencer.blogspot.com/2025/07/ps1-...

It's now been 10 years since Mr. Iwata left us. I've just uploaded my talk "Remembering Satoru Iwata" from last year's Long Island Retro Gaming Expo. Please take a moment to reflect on his memory today!
