Most overrated NES game. Fuck Mr. Gimmick.

its notoriety stems from scarcity, graphical prowess, and youtubers needing clickbait

its not a bad game as a child in the correct era you would have played the absolute shit out of it

Just get the Japanese version (Lickle), there is no text in either version, and it is easier and cheaper to buy a Fami cart. Chip connectors to play Fami carts on NES are plentiful and easy to find, you might even own one already if you got really early NES carts like Gyromite and Stack Up.

Considering the NES can’t do rigorous calculations it has a phenomenal physics engine.
Also that box art really doesn’t sell the game.

Most NES games aren't really sold on the box art.

>> No.9628213

Action games used to have different controls and physics. Each game would have its own thing, be it Mega Man's slippery movement, Adventure Island's jump mechanics, the strict movement of Castlevania, etc etc etc

This filters the zoomer who is used to his modern games and "retro indie metroidvania" which all have the same physics and controls.

Once upon a time that's all you had to go on unless you paid for a magazine subscription, especially for smaller games without the budget for TV ads. The front of the box had to grab your interest enough to get you to look at the back of the box and even then you might end up skipping a great game because of the screenshots and copy not selling the game well enough. You couldn't just go online and pull up endless reviews for every single game in existence.

I'd sat Gimmick feels really good to play once you get a grasp on its mechanics and physics. My only fault with the game is that once you learn it, the games is very short (including going for the good ending). I guess it's nice how concise each level is, but I wish there were more stages that either let you play with or test you on the physics.

If anybody would print a re-release it would be Strictly Limited Games. They're run by ININ Games, who has the Taito license. They do randomly reprint old games, but who knows if they'd ever get around to Little Samson?
