There are some cool designs for this console!

In this series of blogs, I will be covering my favourite versions of each console that I have owned. Now, I most likely don't have any of these myself due to the pricing for them, but I can still see them very well online through photos/videos. However, if I do have one of them, I will make a note of it. Each part of this series will contain a top five for that specific console, this is in order as well from least liked to most liked.

Since the Nintendo 64 was the first ever console I played I will be starting with that.

5. Nintendo 64 Clear White / Red Console

This console is my fourth favourite. There are two other versions of this console but I think the dark blue goes the best with the yellow. The Pikachu featured on the console doesn’t just look cool, but they also worked its foot to be the reset button which is a nice touch. Another cool touch is that the power button is a Poke ball. The controller isn’t just a colour but features the Pokémon logo on it too.

4. Nintendo 64 Pikachu Dark Blue Console

3. Nintendo 64 Funtastic Grape Purple Console

This console is my third favourite. Sometimes less is more and with this one, I feel that applies. The dark purple colour and see-through case looks really clean. It's not too in your face like some of the other designs can be. The buttons on the controller really pop out well with this one too.

2. Nintendo 64 Daiei Hawks Console

This is my second favourite console design. Orange and black is one of my favourite colour combinations and I think it looks great here. Again, we have the cool see-through case as well here. I'm not sure what collab this console is for but I'm glad it was done.

1. Nintendo 64 Gold Console

This is my absolute favourite version of the Nintendo 64. Many gold editions go wrong by making it an unpleasant gold colour, however this one is more akin to rose gold and looks amazing. This would be the ultimate display piece to have on a shelf. While it may not have much else other than color, it doesn't need to.

That's it for part 1 of this series, for part 2 stay connected!

[Review] Odin Sphere Leifthrasir

A game with an interesting narrative, that is held back by some poor design choices source: personacentral.com Odin Sphere Leifthrasir is a 2D action RPG game set in a fantasy world. It came out in 2016 for the PS3, PS4 and PSvita. This game is a remake, the original game, simply titled, Odin Sphere was a PS2 game that came out in 2008. I had this game on my backlog for a long time. I have finally got around to playing it and I have many thoughts about it. I have finished all stories including getting both the good and bad endings so my opinion is solidified. Let's start off with the positives. Odin Sphere has a great overall narrative which is deep and thought invoking. I was very invested in the story wanting to find out what was going to happen next. The way the story is told is that, each character you play as continuously adds to the overarching narrative. This lets you slowly piece things together and see things from other peoples perspectives, which makes it easier to di

[News] Sonic Superstars opening animation uploaded!

The official Sonic YouTube channel has just uploaded the intro animation for the game source: www.youtube.com/@SonictheHedgehog Sonic Superstars is the next game in the Sonic series. The game is scheduled to release soon (autumn 2023), though we still don't know the exact date yet. Sadly, there is no update on that front but we have been treated to the intro animation for the game. This animation looks as good as the other sonic animations we have gotten in recent times. All the playable characters are featured in this one as well as one of Sonic's new abilities, being the one were he makes a bunch of clones. The villains can all be seen together near the end too. Something quite interesting in this animation is that, there is a moment where it's a panned out shot of the islands and you can see certain locations. These appear to be some of the levels. The bottom two levels we have seen in previews, but the carnival, chemical plant type level, the sandy level and the temp

[News] Januarys Special Splatfest Now On! (Frosty Fest)

Pick your team and splat it out! Source: twitter.com/NintendoEurope Another Splatfest is upon us. This Special Holiday Splatfest, about how you spend the holidays, was first announced on November 29th on Twitter. The choices for this Splatfest are, with friends, with family and solo. As usual, this event runs for two full days (January 13th @ 00:00 - January 15th 0:00), with the tri colour battles starting on the second day. Many cool additions and changes just like the Halloween Splatfest have been made to many parts of the games visuals and audio. From the idols wearing outfits to additional Holiday themed music it really is a festive fest. The tri-colour stage this time is Crableg Capital. This is one of the new stages which many people including myself like a lot. I am sure it will be a great tri colour map. I am unsure of the actual layout though as it wasn't datamined at the time of writing this. I do wonder when or if they will ever do a special Splatfest stage like the tri
