Nintendo Replayed: Star Tropics

[originally written for overtimecomedy.com on 2/12/08]


Nintendo Replayed: Will my old Nintendo games hold up when I play them as an adult?

Okay, I bought Star Tropics when I was in high school, but that didn't make it any less fun. My friends and I became obsessed with it, but since we hadn't been playing it since we were kids, it didn't have that rerun quality that comes with beating Mario 3 for the eighty gajillionth time. Star Tropics like structured like The Legend of Zelda, overworld map and dungeons, but it has a more linear plot. There is, however, nothing straight-forward about the story. No spoilers, but you will never guess how the game ends up.

Since I didn't play the game as a kid, it loses the nostalgia factor on replay, but that doesn't make it any less fun. Welcome to Awesomecola!
