Three more episodes to the end of our journey, we encounter a pretty basic Tetris port and a strange curio in Nintendo's history of boxing games. What would Edward Maki Jr. think of Arms? And where exactly did the tradition of beating up on the developers' names during the credits come from?

We kick off October with one of the rare horror games on the platform, which really impressed us both. Red Alarm also proves to be a technical masterpiece.

A mixed bag this month. On one hand, flying through a Techno Skeleton's mouth is rad as hell. Unfortunately, Nester and his twin sister fail to bring the funk.

It's leisure month here on V!V!VB! And how better to celebrate the start of summer and the great outdoors than sticking your head in a dark black box. We discuss the fundamentally broken Golf from the prolific T&E Soft, and ponder nature's mysteries after catching the mighty Japanese Huchen.
