In recent updates, Nintendo has been stingy with their games, opting instead to focus on other developers’ material, such as Phantasy Star II and Harvest Moon. This week, however, Nintendo brings us one of their classics from the Nintendo 64.
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, originally released at the tail end of the N64’s lifecycle, is one of Nintendo’s few side-scrolling platformers for home consoles since the advent of 3-dimensional gaming. Enthusiasts of early Kirby games are sure to appreciate Crystal Shards for its traditional platforming action. With the current Kirby project for the Wii seemingly in limbo, this downloadable iteration should help to comfort fans of the series.
Also re-released this week is Psychosis, a 2-D shooter from the TurboGrafx 16. Don’t worry; I haven’t heard of it either.
