Piko Interactive Collection 4
SCORE: 66
I am thankful I had the money to purchase a copy of the Piko
Interactive Collection 4 cartridge on the Evercade systems. There are
ten retro video games on the Piko Interactive Collection 4 cartridge
that range from the 8-bit to 64-bit systems. In fact Piko Interactive
Collection 4 is the first Evercade to make it to the 64-bit emulation
level so that is kind of exciting.
The ten games on the Piko Interactive Collection 4 cartridge are Glover,
Risky Woods, Zero Tolerance Underground, Skuljagger Revolt of the
Westicons, Street Racer, Target Renegade, Bad Street Brawler, Mermaids
of Atlantis, Star X, and The Fidgetts. We have one 3D platformer, three
2D side scroller, one first person shooter, one puzzle game, one racing
game, one flight simulator, and two beat em up games in Piko Interactive
Collection 4.
I liked the kart racing video game Street Racer in Piko Interactive
Collection 4. I did not like the controls in Glover, I went and bought
Glover on the Nintendo 64 and found it controlled better with that
control scheme than on Evercade. Zero Tolerance Underground had not been
released previously. After playing it I an see why. There is no reason
for this game and the other Zero Tolerance game.
Speaking of questionable controls there are a lot of irritations in
Skuljagger Revolt of the Westicans. I love retro games that have enemies
respawn and force the player to take hits. Especially when you can only
take so many hits before you respawn or must play the level all over
again. Such a pleasant experience. There are a reason some of these
games were lost to history.
The Fidgetts annoyed me to no end. I could not figure out how to do much
in this Gameboy video game. Star X is a Starfox clone that is not that
great. Why do so many shooters have such a bad image for being nearly
impossible to defeat? Star X on the Piko Interactive Collection 4
cartridge fits into that category. Bad Street Brawler and Target
Renegade are beyond forgettable for me.
