'Medabots' Had Games!?
The 1999 anime Medabots is one of my all-time favorites. However, until recently, I hadn't played the games the anime was adapting. Around the time of its English broadcast, the only game I was aware of was Medabots: Metabee & Rokusho for Game Boy Advance. I was not too fond of this game when I was younger because the motion tweening used in its battle animations was stilted compared to the fluid animation featured in the anime. Unbeknownst to me, Medabots: Metabee & Rokusho was a remake of Medarot 2, so in other words, there were other games. Two decades later, I discovered that not only were there more games, but the Medabots fan community was in the process of translating them. Thankfully, most Medarot games are Game Boy titles with less off-putting battle animations.

The Very First Game I've Ever Played
Earlier this month, one of my favorite NES games recently turned 40. That game was Super Mario Bros. At the time of its release in 1985, funny enough, 40 million copies of the classic game were sold. These don't include ports and re-releases. I was born two years and a month after it came out. Yes, I'm showing my age here a bit. I was lucky and fortunate to be born in one of the best decades. Picture this: it's New Year's Eve 1989 and just for context, it was also my now estranged father's birthday. At the time, I was a two-year-old who discovered video games for the first time. Seeing my father's NES made me curious and popped Super Mario Bros. inside the game console. For the new generation, the NES games we played came in cartridges. To make sure the game worked properly, you would have to blow inside the cartridge a few times, pop it in the console, and hopefully it'll work.

The Legacy of 'Mega Man Battle Network'
With the release of the Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection in 2023, there appears to be a renewed interest in the RPG series. However, this resurgence has yet to result in Capcom reviving the series with a new entry. Indie games inspired by Mega Man Battle Network, such as One Step From Eden, EndCycle VS, and Berserk B.I.T.S., attempt to fill this void with their similar battle systems and card-collecting mechanics. Unfortunately, none of these games has perfectly recreated the appeal of the Battle Network series. Enter Shanghai EXE: Genso Network and Mega Man Battle Network Chrono X, two existing fangames that continue where the series left off.
