May bonus #5: NES Works Gaiden Casio 5
🕑 Added 2024-05-30 14:04:16 +0000 UTCWhew, I almost didn't make my self-imposed deadline with this one. But here it is! The next-to-last episode of NES Works Gaiden Casio... well, next-to-last unless I should somehow come across the means to record from a PV-2000. That's unlikely. Those things are hard to find in any condition, but locating one with an intact keyboard that hasn't turned into brittle fragments of membrane plastic? Fuhgeddaboutit.
This is a pretty interesting episode simply because it features two remarkable firsts for the medium. Wow! Love to see revolutionary material flushed into the memory hold because it's tied to failed hardware!

I love that Space Panic isn't just Heiankyo Alien with ladders, but rather has its own subtle, structural differences that make it different to play, kinda like the relationship between Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man.

I've always wondered if it was because I grew up in the Chicagoland area, that I pronounced it as 'kass-see-o" instead of of "kah-see-o."
