After a long hiatus due to world traveling, I am back with some more songs about videogames. This week in the Mushroom Singdom, we've got Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards for the Nintendo 64 and Psychosis, which was on the Turbo Graphix 16.
In terms of the songs, I find it funny because I spent literally ten minutes writing the Psychosis song that I thought came out really well. Especially compared to the Kirby 64 song, on which I spent the better part of an hour. Just goes to show you can never tell what's going to stick and what isn't.
I wouldn't classify either of these games as a sure thing. Psychosis is one of the most by-the-numbers shmups Nintendo has released on the Virtual Console thus far. Just absolutely nothing original in it. Kirby 64 is all right, but doesn't even come close to comparing to the original game, or even some of the others that came before it. This was the first time I had played it, and even though I was enjoying myself, I felt somewhat cheated by the faux-3D nature of the graphics. Look at Mario 64 and then look at this. Yeah.

And good work
Speaking of that, can you retro-actively post your songs about Ninja Gaiden III and Phantasy Star II? They also rocked.
...I see what you did there.
"Jesus Christ, GameJew..."
Lulz.
Can you make a Earthbound/Mother remix PLEASE?
Game of the decade!
Come on- Lightsaber, Flaming Broadsword, Fridge? Watching the Fire+ Electricity one, where Kirby rubs tinfoil on his head until the static and friction makes him burst into flames and run around on fire is worth the price of admission, hands down.
Anyway, great to have you back Gamejew.
ps: Will you make al album of these some day?
Or:
"Kirby 64 is all right, but doesn't even come close to comparing to the original game, or even some of the others that came before it."
What?
The original was Kirby's Dream Land on Game Boy and it's awesome. To this day. You can still put it in your fancy Nintendo DSes and play it for a good time (but not your DS Lites).
JEWS!!1
and welcome back gamejew
I remember him getting hammered before in the comments, probably why he left. Still, let's put that behind us and... err... elope?
