Thirty-one years after the exciting conclusion of World War III, a man with a receding hairline does what no one thought was possible: drive a motorcycle while wearing sunglasses at night.
Akira takes players on a magical journey through time to post-Apocalyptic Japan. Taking place on January 8th, 2019, players find themselves in the grip of Japanese totalitarianism as they try to explain to Big Brother why exactly their motorcycle exploded when it came within close proximity of a zombie.
Akira is Taito Game Collective’s response to the gaming population’s increasing hunger for the simulator genre. Falling outside the norm of railcar-, standing still-, and ledger-simulator, Taito opted to simulate the life of a conspiracy theorist. An excellent simulator framed with beautifully rendered graphics and cut-scenes that truly immerse players in the dystopian environment, the ten-year gap between planned and actual launch dates was well worth it.

Do you like clowns, son?
If your idea of a good time involves shooting beer bottles as a clown throws them then this game will fulfill your every fantasy – and then some!
Choose between such NES classics as:
- CLOWR
- SNAKE CHARMER
- SHOOTER
Once you grow tired of beer bottle shooting in CLOWR, you can move on to SNAKE CHARMER. In this game the trick to charming a snake is to shoot it in the head. When you’ve finished charming all of the snakes, and are standing on a mile high stack of their dead bodies, you can begin SHOOTER.
By this point you’ll probably have noticed a trend among these games, and will have guessed correctly that SHOOTER does, in fact, involve shooting. On your final shooting spree, take aim at cardboard cutouts of aliens.
12 hours later I had charmed every snake, it was now time to have a tea party with my new friends.

After realizing the shortcomings of 110-in-1, #-in-1 Development Company released a patch.
The patch came in a new cartridge, which might seem excessive, but it’s worth the price to have approximately ninety unique games and twenty-five rehashes. Sure, some are mislabeled, but, from what I can tell, each menu option does indeed load a game.
…That definitely blows in my cartridge!
There are definitely 115-in-1 in this collection. It never specifies 115 what or if they will be good, so there’s no room to criticize.
Delivers what it promises.

Picking up where 54-in-1 left off, 110-in-1 remakes the #-in-1 series as a whole new ball game. And you know what I always say: If there’s a field, play ball.
Tearing up a new path, 110-in-1 doesn’t offer the same six games over and over again. It offers 93 unique titles before it starts repeating. But while the titles are unique, sometime the same game is on the other side.
And you should consider yourself lucky when that’s the case, as other titles will either lead to a game of scrambled graphics or they will take you back to the first list of games. There is also the opportunity to crash the game so hard that not even resetting the console will save you.
This cartridge does have some positives, though, as Grading is a fun game, and Banana has potential. It also contains Galaxian and two versions of Tetris. Unfortunately, Superman 3, Superman 4, 634 Sword, and The New Human do not work.
It has taken a few tries, but they’re beginning to get it right.
