- Biggest news EVER possibly: The Socks the Cat game for the SNES is probably going to get a release,
once it hits its Kickstarter goal! Yay! Read more here.
Second Dimension and Tom Curtin, a gaming historian and collector, managed to
secure the rights.
- On Kotaku, they have a news item on an NES replica that’s
in the shape of a Zelda chest. And,
oh, by the way, it has a wireless, floating Tri-force. Read more here!
- Stuff has a cool feature on the
history of Nintendo handhelds, including the Game and Watch.
ON THIS DAY (OR CLOSE
TO IT!) IN VIDEO GAME HISTORY…
- Mortal Kombat 3 was
released for the Genesis and Super Nintendo today in 1995, after its release in
arcades on April 15. Its story is completely insane, but hey, it has more
buckets of blood, like the previous games in the series.
- Pokemon Gold and Silver came out on October 15,
2000. They sold a billion copies.
- WWF Raw was released
for the PC on October 14, 2002. Because it was the last WWF game on the PC
until 2015, it was a popular when it came to mods, even though Anchor’s effort
received middling reviews when it came out.
- Shin Megami
Tensei: Nocturne was released October 12, 2004. It was the first game
of that series released in the U.S. by Atlus, and it immediately became a cult
classic, bought by about 20 people who all happened to be game critics.
