It's never talked about these days but yeah, back in the day it was a pretty well known hit. I don't know why but almost nothing makes me laugh harder than playing the BMX event on the Atari Lynx version and just making this poor bastard on the bike eat shit in the worst ways.

Mutant League Hockey was also a lot of fun, also based on their NHL engine on Genesis back then. Great choice. There was some sort of spiritual successor to Mutant League Football that came out recently if I'm remembering correctly...?

In the arcades, NHL Open Ice, AKA 2 on 2 NHL Open Ice Challenge. The sport of hockey done by the same team behind NBA JAM, which sadly never received the Tournament Edition version - like NBA JAM did - that it always deserved. The source code for it, and several other arcade games from Midway, did eventually get leaked to Github, so my hopes of a hack that adds stuff or gives us updated rosters is still alive: https://github.com/historicalsource/open-ice

There's so much I love about this game. I'm not a baseball game fan in general but I keep coming back to Base Wars. The fights triggered by a runner sliding into a base as the ball is arriving was always fun. The velocity of the ball when you hit a homerun was awesome. Great pick.

Maybe it's underrated these days because I imagine almost no one would be playing it these days but back in the actual days of the NES, Blades of Steel was beloved, at least here in Canada.

It would have been incredible if Nintendo allowed them to add the Atari Games/Tengen NES version of Tetris in this compilation.

Also, anyone else out there remember/used to play TetriNET?

Love Nexpo, always glad to see a new video even if it's about the creepiest things possible.

Tried it a bit yesterday on Windows. Opened a Github link in it and Windows Defender killed the app saying it was a threat. Definitely a false positive but seemed odd to see the entire app just die instantly, lol.
