    K this is prob gonna get me some looks but one of my fav NES games I own is “North & South” (Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CT1xuEEvRu4)

    Which is almost exactly what it sounds like… A simple sort of strategy game with minigame pvp platforming sections and a primitive RTS style overhead battle system.

    Really bizarre for a NES game to have several different gameplay modes that all are kind of good tbh.

    Awful premise for a game casually “both sidesing” slavery. Even when I was a kid and saw it at the video store in the early 90’s I was like “That’s kinda messed up isn’t it?”.

    Eventually my older brother rented it and yeah. Fun game. Please don’t judge me too harshly.

      I used to love playing Contra as a kid. Still can’t wrap my brain around how fucked that all was.
