Thought I'd do the 90s as a Most Wanted series instead of trying to list everything. Here's what I'm most interested in from this year.

Arcade

Parodius - Has some similarities to Konami's TwinBee. I love the look. One day it may get released in some form in North America.

Home Console

Vallis III - The six action games in this series are now in collections on Switch thankfully. This third one is on Turbografx-16 and Genesis in original form.

TV

One could have more time after just two games, so why not watch a new show for 1990, Jeeves and Wooster starring Hugh Laurie (later House) and Stephen Fry. I've seen the whole series several times and am now reading the P.G. Wodehouse books it's based on.

Film

And if I wanted to rewatch something it might be The Hunt for Red October, which surprised me with how good it was. So good that I read the Tom Clancy novel, and I rarely read such thriller. Good book.

I played all these videos at the same time, and the cacophony mostly had Sega Drunk and Red October audible, but I loved the jazz from jeeves and wooster! I also thought the first video was gonna be that homoerotic Japanese shooter game I sometimes see pop up but only remember from an old EGM seanbaby article.

Thanks for covering my birth year!

Nice! I wrote this at the library and couldn't hear any audio. All at once would be a wild sound I want to hear!

Cho Aniki, if I remember right.

No problem. Good to hear from you. It's been a while.

I imported a Parodious collection on the PSP a long time ago.

Lucky you. I wish they'd drop a collection for Switch.

I don't know much about the Valis games but Valis III sounds pretty good!
