Backlog Impressions | Haunted Halloween '86 and Creepy Brawlers (Nintendo Switch)
The NES homebrew community is a thriving scene where hobbyists and professionals alike can take a nosedive into the nitty gritty of how games for this classic console were made. You’ll find passion projects, fan translations for games never released in your region and silly hacks for the games you know and love. It’s actually kind of amazing that even to this day, development is in full force for a console that’s over 30 years old. The only caveat is you need to know your way around the dark and scary corners of the internet to find them!
And speaking of scary, the retro-centric folks over at Mega Cat Studios and Retrotainment Games have laboriously studied the ancient and eldritch 8bit scriptures to bring us not one, but two spooky NES games just in time for the eeriest night of the year! With their chilling entries Haunted: Halloween ‘86 and Creepy Brawlers!
The best part is you won’t have to dust off your big gray toaster to play them, because they're both available right now on your Nintendo Switch!
