I post about retro and arcade games, and sometimes pro wrestling, food and pop culture.

My links are at linktr.ee/djtatsujin

The link I really want to point out is my website, www.gemubaka.com, which is a collection of game writings from nearly 20 combined years.

Let's enjoy games together!

New blog post time!

This week's game is Wizard Fire, the follow-up to Data East's D&D-inspired Gate of Doom that really doesn't stray far from it at all. However, an injection of style ends up adding some substance alongside it, resulting in a game that I found myself quite a bit more endeared to:
Wizard Fire
Wizard Fire is the kind of game that’s an improved sequel in virtually every regard, but it’s also a game I didn’t necessarily expect to exist as it was. Here I was asking for some kind of bigger a…

Good morning

I started Perfect Dark Zero, and we found out the "Zero" refers to the gravity in the game.

So far this is a game in which I'm liking some things, and not so much liking other things. I still feel like seeing this one through for now.

Thanks again to @ryyudo.bsky.social for the clip!

Game 9 off the XBox 360 shelf for #RandomGameSaturday - Crash of the Titans.

Deep in the Vevendi era of Crash Bandicoot, this game spins the series into beat ‘em up territory, with the ability to control multiple enemy characters.

This one is a bit out there, but it’s alright.

The actual finale of Mega Man Legends.

Since it seems like I only have so much left, I'm gonna try to hit up as many of the side-quests as I can before the conclusion. Perfect Saturday vibes tbh.

Sayonara Mega Man Legends. Starting shortly! twitch.tv/ryyudo

Good morning

I recently showed a number of doodles I've done over the past few years, and that mentioned "Happy Tentacle Gambit" from X-Men Vs. Street Fighter.

I found my actual reference photo to show what the heck I was talking about. Someone posted this frame from the game, and I doodled it.

I finally managed to get a 20, November cut. I'm glad I integrated the scene shortcuts into a stream for once. It was a fun 20, November!

I have clipped some real-time footage of @joepreal.bsky.social establishing authority on the Street Hoop court.

Good morning

You can see Karnov in the background of the Neo-Geo arcade game Street Hoop. This is a really cool arcade basketball game (multiplayer on Fightcade), so be sure to add it to your #Karnovember rotation!

Karnov's fit is pretty slick here. I can't get over how he made himself a jersey.

Today on my website I look over the game Seventh Cross: Evolution!

Link: almagaming.wolfpack.xyz/gameblogP12....

In this sim game for the Dreamcast, you will be tasked with creation strong body parts with the EVO system to find out your purpose of life in this game.

Is it good though? Find out!
