Koopa Reviews: Vindicators

This is a review of Vindicators, made by Tengen and released in 1988 for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Please watch!

The purpose of this video (and any other videos in this series) is to simply shine a light on the game being reviewed, not to label it with a subjective number. Any opinions I may express in this video should be taken with a grain of salt and compared with by playing the game yourself, in order to get a complete personalized version of the review that meets your preferences.

I OWN NOTHING IN THIS VIDEO, except for the film footage and all the effort it took to make this video.

Please rate & comment

If you enjoyed this video, please share it with your friends and family. I'd really appreciate it. :)

========================================
Commentary Notes:

*sigh*, after a long month with no new Koopa Reviews due to various complications... The series is back and better than ever!

There's been quite a few new things added to this episode. First of all, I've added some much needed music to the usual quiet parts of the video. Such as when I am describing boxart and stuff like that. Second, I've updated the end credits text so it's not so bland, for now I'll use the same text in the credits as in the title card for the name of the game being reviewed. Lastly, I've added a little something special to the very end of the video (before the credits). Cookie to anyone who gets the idea before Episode 8 is released. :)

Concerning the additional music, the tracks used at the beginning of the video (before the gameplay footage) are from some of my favorite games. More specifically, some of my favorite tracks from those favorite games. XD

Since there are a few fans of this review series, I'll be finishing the other three videos I have planned before I bring up the question of "whether to axe it or not" again. I hope most of the answers will be "yes" by the time Episode 10 is released. ;)

I'm happy you enjoyed it. :D

Ice Climber and Mach Rider are some of my favorite NES games. :]

WTF is jaleco?

Lol, the aliens bought the vindicator tanks from an asian running a stand XD

[KoopaMedia64]

Jaleco was a third party game developer in the late 80s that more prominently made games on the NES. They never really released anything that was overly outstanding. Also, they were notorious for putting the name "Jaleco" on game end labels instead of the game's title.

Nice review. This game looks fun even with the whole fuel issue.

[KoopaMedia64]

Thanks! :D

It is indeed fun, despite it's flaws. Be sure to play it with someone else, it's a blast!

I would like to share another good thing in this game aside from your mention of the tank's customization, that is being able to touch enemies, as physical contact with enemies in most games, such as the other two you directly compared it to, Jackal and Iron Tank, results in damage or instant destruction of your machine. You know what else is great, enemy tanks can accidentally destroy each other as well as get obliterated by mines too, love this, you can actually lure enemy tanks into traps.

[KoopaMedia64]

Really? I've sometimes lost fuel from driving into other enemies. >.>

Still, good point concerning the lack of friendly fire among the opposition. I didn't really notice that. :)

[TheAnxiousMan]

[Falco2073]

Loving the Ice Climbers and Mach Rider music. ;)
