@lophatjello I knew there was the NES and soon to be 3DS games, but I didn't know of the 2nd one inbetween! Thanks for pointing out the mistake. I shoulda done my research first, sorry.

[lophatjello]

no worries, it was for the original gameboy and it was only alright.

[Itionobo2]

Pit only got ONE game... and he was in Smash Bros... who knows? Maybe Sparkster might get in ;)

[lophatjello]

Pit got 2 actually, and a 3rd one for the 3DS. And he was a Nintendo property. Sparkster is Konami's character. It would be awesome but it's less likely.

Hey Nintendo! For your next Smash Brothers game for the Wii U, include Sparkster! You haven't started it yet, so consider it. You included Snake in Brawl, so why not Sparkster and Axel Gear in the next one?

I actually liked this game the best out of all of them

2:54 what game was that from?

[Br0adHead]

Two Best friends channel talked about you bro! your in the big time :P

Rocket Knight Adventures was one of my fav genesis game.

[Vivian Sutton]

Hey, I've got a quick criticism or two

First, it's not that hard to control the jetpack, and heck you said that most enemies only take 1 or two hits to die so using the sword is perfectly ok. Plus you can perform the spin attack which comes out miles faster than the sword so no excuses slating that system unless you feel so used to RKA

Second, the password system is made so you can take a break and come back later. It is NOT intended to be used as a method for infinite lives.

Rocket Knight was and remains the shit.

PS. Do you really... drink red wine... playing Rocket Knight Adventures...?

[IHeatherGraceI]

Its a shame Rocket Knight never got a hardcopy. I don't do downloads :(

Milon fans have it the worst D:

Erhm, excuse me, great review.

[A1ienDrummer]

Ok, for those of you who keep saying "Sparkster should be in the next SSB because Snake was in the last one," let me clear up something for you: Hideo Kojima himself requested having Snake being in Brawl. Nintendo wasn't too sure about having him in at first, saying he was more of a Sony mascot, but Kojima still wanted him in anyways. It didn't have anything to do with Snake's popularity or anything like that, it was the desire of Kojima that got him in there.

wow man you really have a good eye for detail in your reviews.. i love your commentary about sparkster being a great under-used and underrated character.. i agree. a knight with a jetpack? i mean seriously.. and then like u said.. the dichotomy of being a cute mascot and at the same time being a brave bad@ss.. its so great.. kinda reminds me of clockwork knight on the sega saturn which was another incredible game!
