Satoshi Matrix Reviews

[satoshi_matrix]

After many delays getting the hardware and software together, I finally finished the first part of my first review! Please note that I'm running an actual copy of Famicom Wars on my actual Famicom. This isn't a rom!

I finished my Famicom Wars review (Part 1!!)

Please let me know what you think! If you like it, please comment, rate it, and subscribe! I hope to be reviewing a lot of games in the future, espically Famicom titles. After I finish up with Part 2, I'll start work on Balloon Fight.

Thanks and give me feedback Famicom World!

That really looks great. I think that reviews like that of the really great famicom games that are in english or translated to english help bring more to the scene. Thanks!

[satoshi_matrix]

That's my hope.

Sorry Devil World's been taking so long. I've been really busy lately.

Actually, making reviews of the quality I want is quite a lot of work. Things are done in a lot of steps, which mostly are:

1. Decide what game I should review next
2. Write a review of it. The written review consists of an introduction, the premise, graphics, sound, gameplay, fun factor, frustration,
history, and and overall comments.
3. Start recording vocalized versions of the written, then editing both the written to sound better when spoken.
4. Edit down the clips removing inperfections.
5. Record some gameplay footage.
6. Devide up the footage to match the audio and make any nessesary editing desisions.
7. Save it, view it, edit it again if nessesary
8. Compress it so it will fit on youtube
9. ??
10. Profit (I wish!)

So yeah, a long process. With this in mind, I come to you guys with a question and a request: Would anyone like to volunteer to be a initial draft writer for some of my reviews? I'm looking for someone to help me write a review for upcomming Kid Icarus and Castlevania. Your work will be most likely edited and molded by me but I'll try to keep large sections of it unchanged. You will also receive credit for your work.

Please keep in mind reviews should be fair and be as imparticial as possibe. Nobody wants to hear a fanboy ranting about something only he likes.

Heeeey!!
I pretty much enjoyed your Balloon Fight review!
About your frustration, yeah, it has no ending, even after 999.990 points.

2-player mode is a blast!

Sorry for so many threads on basicly the same topic, but I wanted to make a single location for you guys to voice your thoughts on my video review series.

For those who don't know, I've put together a few Famicom game reviews on my youtube channel. the url is http://www.youtube.com/user/SatoshiMatrix1.

This thread is open to anyone who would like to do any of the following:

1. Make a suggestion for a Famicom or NES game to review.

I'm not a AVGN clone, and while I will occationally review a poor quality game, the primary focus of my review series to to expose retro and younger games to some gems they may not have played before. Another factor to take into consideration is the length of the game. RPGs and text adventure are generally out due to the amount of time it would take me to go through the entire game to be able to fully comment on its worth. That said, I do plan to eventually review Mother. If after taking this into consideration you still have a suggestion, please provide some information as to why its worthy of reviewing.

2. Comment on existing reviews

I love to hear what you guys think! I hope my reviews provoke discussion above all else. No matter if you agree or disagree with what I say, I want to hear your thoughts.

3. Suggestions for improvement

I'm always looking to make my next review better than the one before it, and to do that I need to be aware of what I need to work on. Some things I can't change right away; I'm currently saving up to buy a better recording mic and I'm restricted to youtube's 100 MB and 10 minutes guidelines, but beyond these, I'm open to suggestions.
