Retro Odyssey ep.013

An IN-DEPTH review and analysis of Hudson Soft's Adventure Island (高橋名人の冒険島) for the Famicom and the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)

I put way more into this review / retrospective / whatever you want to call it than I probably should have -- but most of the reviews only seem to cover the fist world or two. There really wasn't anything covering everything that the game has to offer, so I felt compelled to go over it all.

Really hope you enjoy it -- lmk what you think in the comments BBY.
