Nintendoji (任天童子) – An Amazing DSiWare Game You Missed https://onecontrollerport.com/nintendoji-%e4%bb%bb%e5%a4%a9%e7%ab%a5%e5%ad%90-an-amazing-dsiware-game-you-missed/ Wed, 06 Apr 2022 16:00:00 +0000 https://onecontrollerport.com/?p=11337 Nintendoji OCP Header Image

Nintendoji (任天童子) is a great game and an impressive feat by Nintendo for the DSiWare platform. Unfortunately, it’s incredibly inaccessible. You can find my item guide on google sheets, as well as a stream of me using it to play Nintendoji. Check out the full nJoy walkthrough for more guidance. Here’s the official Nintendoji manual. […]

Nintendoji is a maze dungeon crawler released in Japan as a downloadable Club Nintendo reward. You play a priest who descends into the city to purify it.

Castlevania of Old and New in Soul of Darkness https://onecontrollerport.com/soul-of-darkness/ https://onecontrollerport.com/soul-of-darkness/#respond Thu, 17 Sep 2015 14:01:37 +0000 https://onecontrollerport.com/soul-of-darkness/ Soul of Darkness Promo Art

Gameloft is known for its rip-offs of popular franchises. Modern Combat is obviously inspired by Call of Duty,  Eternal Legacy is based off Final Fantasy,  Dragon Hunter looks pretty close to Diablo. Especially in the early smartphone marketplace, they offered surprisingly decent clones that were more than just match three puzzle games. In 2010, their […]

One Isn’t Enough for The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition https://onecontrollerport.com/the-legend-of-zelda-four-swords-anniversary/ https://onecontrollerport.com/the-legend-of-zelda-four-swords-anniversary/#respond Tue, 15 Sep 2015 14:01:43 +0000 https://onecontrollerport.com/the-legend-of-zelda-four-swords-anniversary/ Links Pushing a Boulder

Just because you want something doesn’t mean you’ll like it. As someone who largely games alone, for years I wanted a way to play The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords on my own. It worked well in Four Swords Adventures on the GameCube, so why not allow me to experience the original Four Swords in […]

How Attack of the Friday Monsters depicts Japan like it’s our own backyard https://onecontrollerport.com/gamesbeat-how-attack-of-the-friday-monsters-depicts-japan-like-its-our-own-backyard/ https://onecontrollerport.com/gamesbeat-how-attack-of-the-friday-monsters-depicts-japan-like-its-our-own-backyard/#respond Fri, 11 Oct 2013 01:58:59 +0000 http://oculin.wordpress.com/?p=2649 Attack of the Friday Monsters Key Art

I like Attack of the Friday Monsters. It’s a hard sell though, as it’s difficult to understand what the appeal of the game is by just looking at screenshots or the trailer. I tried to paint a picture of what kind of experience the title offers through an article I wrote on VentureBeat’s GamesBeat. That […]

TSG Game Review – Avenging Spirit https://onecontrollerport.com/tsg-game-review-avenging-spirit/ https://onecontrollerport.com/tsg-game-review-avenging-spirit/#respond Mon, 15 Aug 2011 00:58:03 +0000 http://oculin.wordpress.com/?p=1684

Looking at that box art, you might think you know what Avenging Spirits is about. Mafia gangstas that shoot tommy guns…? Nope! It’s actually about a young a man who dies and turns into a ghost. He has to possess people to save his girlfriend! That box art accurately portrays the game so well! Box arts aside, […]

And with the only release between now and probably the holiday season being Star Fox 64 3D, another Nintendo 64 remake, Nintendo needs to step up their game to keep gamers holding onto the platform. While Nintendo can’t implement any long term […]
