[ Retro Scan of the Week ] Sexual Cotton
October 6th, 2008 by Benj EdwardsI just got home from a road trip a few hours ago and I’m absolutely exhausted, so I’ll let you guys provide the humorous commentary for this one. I recall this title (Fantastic Night Dreams: Cotton) getting a hefty premium in the used game shops back in the late-1990s — it was one of the seemingly prized, relatively rare, and unabashedly Japanese CD games always locked behind a glass case. I drooled, but those discs remained just out of reach…so I stocked up on $2 NES cartridges instead.
Discussion topic of the week: What’s your favorite TurboGrafx-16 / PC Engine / Turbo Duo game? This should be a good one. The more obscure, the better.

A friend of mine showed me a really weird one on his computer a few weeks back, called Gekisha Boy. Imagine a side-scroller Pokemon Snap, only… wrong. So very, very wrong… yet, so addictive..

I didn’t get a Turbo Grafx system until its lifespan was almost over. I only had:
Keith Courage
Side Arms
Aero Blasters
Bonk
Bomberman
Bomberman was probably the best of my lot, but they were all pretty good.
