Gunstar Heroes, one of Treasure’s most revered games, is often lauded for its graphics and astonishingly great gameplay.

We were originally hoping to have another magic girl-related video to follow up on the recent Sailor Moon Crystal LE unboxing we posted a few weeks back, but DotEmu were kind enough to unleash Wonderboy – The Dragon’s Trap, the highly anticipated Wonderboy 3 remake developed by Lizardcube, and I did a poor job of […]

Having missed out on seeing the concert during the 2011 tour, my wish more or less came true when A New World: intimate […]
Pokémon Duel out of nowhere!
