I expanded my Top NES games list to an even 100. This has been something I’ve been chipping away at in my spare time over the past few months. Check it out! davegladow.com/the-best-nes...
Two latest additions to the 2026 completed games thread: Snake’s Revenge davegladow.com/snakes-reven... Eliminator Boat Duel davegladow.com/eliminator-b...
Got my 2026 games completed thread on the blog. Latest review: Metal Gear Solid 2. davegladow.com/tag/2026-rev...
Gonna brag on this one: Snake Rattle ‘n’ Roll has been defeated. Whew, that end game was something else. Thoughts: davegladow.com/snake-rattle...
Latest games completed: Crystalis and Vice: Project Doom. My thoughts on both at the link: davegladow.com/tag/2026-rev...
Newest game in the completed pile: Shadow of the Ninja. Thoughts here: davegladow.com/tag/2026-rev...
Newest game review is “Ice Climber” which is a lot like breaking your toe. davegladow.com/tag/2026-rev...
Jazz Fest is irresistible. Eat some of the best food you’ve ever had. Wander into a Mardi Gras Indian battle. Stumble into Steve Earle recounting a remarkable career and punctuating it with a touching performance of “This City.” Then watch a neighbor and fellow school parent perform on your way out.
And finally, a new Zelda ranking. For now, I’m here: 1. BOTW 2. OOT 3. TOTK — 4. MM 5. LTTP 6. WW 7. SS 8. LA — 9. LOZ 10. HW 11. AOC 12. TP 13. OOA — 14. OOS 15. AOL
Hey, the race is conquered, but you can still give! Plus, if you do, you already know I’ve fulfilled my end of the bargain! Thanks again to everyone who donated already!
Tempest 2000 is like a pinball table mixed with a night club. And drugs. Lots and lots of drugs. davegladow.com/tempest-2000...
Ice Hockey isn’t the sort of thing you need to play unless you have a weird NES obsession. And yet, I have a weird NES obsession. So… davegladow.com/ice-hockey-r...
Metroid Prime 4 is a good time if you don’t get weird about it. davegladow.com/metroid-prim...
Glanced over the Switch review thingie, and I enjoyed getting to look at my entire history, not just 2025.
MUSHA deserves much of its boss-ass reputation … but maybe not all of it. davegladow.com/m-u-s-h-a-re...
54. The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages — I enjoyed this a fair bit more than its sibling, as the switching dynamic re: the world map felt more natural/enjoyable, the story was more compelling, and I thought the dungeons rocked. Seasons isn’t terrible, but Ages, to me, is better.
