GRcade

I'm really starting to miss the banners that jawa made up for the streams. They were perfect for GRview also. Bloody jawa and his Mario Kart obsession

It's Easter weekend, so time for some Easter related titles.

Fantastic Dizzy (NES)
The Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle (NES)
Bucky O'Hare (NES)

Ha, I like the theming.

Picking Bucky O'Hare for this:

Bucky O'Hare is really hard, but I like it and if I remember correctly it has great music too. Poll going up in a sec.

Poll is up.

The Dizzy series is one of my faves from my childhood Used to play the gooseberry fool out of Treasure Island Dizzy on the Amstrad.

Two of my Amstrad-owning pals used to play the Dizzy titles. I never played one on my C64 but they looked pretty cool. My vote is for Dizzy!

Sorry, Pedz . One of my Miiverse mates is running a Kart tournament at 8pm each Monday and I wanted to give him a bit of support for it. It also serves as a practice run before the GR Kart tourney starts at 9! I will try and mix it up so that I could perhaps watch the Retro stream one week and do the karting the next, dude.

Tbh I'm tempted to switch Retro Monday to a different day, the reasons being that on Monday I get an hour and if I'm actually really enjoying a game any other day of the week i can carry on playing and not run the risk of streaming when MK is meant to be streamed as well as that all the viewers leaving to play Mario Kart. I dunno, it's something I've been thinking about for a long while.

Pedz's Retro Weekender

I don't stream on the weekends for myself. So I could in theory do a weekend job.

I can see your thinking, Pedz, although it may be good to hold off for a wee while. I only suggest that because, in time, the Wii U karting session could be superseded by the Switch version and I think Dragon was looking to move it from the Monday slot to another day.

I'm usually good for Monday evenings but unfortunately I can't join the karting nor the Retro session this Monday as I'm gonna be at a family do.

Always too busy for me

Bucky O'Hare wins, I'll give Errkal until half pastto post twitter results. As I need to download and sort stuff for the stream, and 10 minutes will be a push to do it.

Sorry didn't do a Twitter poll, totally forgot sorry

NVM.

Anyway Steam is live.

Tune in guys and watch me suffer.

Sorry I haven't put up a poll yet, it's my turn to choose and I have no clue what to pick tbh. I'll have a little think though and get a poll posted soon.

Poll is up, here are the games.

Robocop Vs Terminator (MD)
Super Castlevania IV (SNES)
R-Type (PCe)

That's a great selection, Pedz. I've plumped for Super Castlevania as I have never seen much of it and it seems like it'd make a cool viewing.

R-Type please.

After watching a little of the Bucky O'Hare stream I was inspired to give it a blast myself. Just finished it and bar the scrolling shmup level at the end it was really good.
