Metal Jesus here and I’m back again with a video that’s gonna be all about Piko Interactive. Now they are a game publisher that is putting out brand new, high quality, retro games for like the Super Nintendo, the SEGA Mega Drive, Genesis, the original NES, the Game Boy Advance. As a matter of fact, they sent me an entire box of most of the games that they sell. So we’re gonna check these out. Now what’s cool about them is that they basically license homebrews and original games. They also licenses games that were unfinished, that never came to market. Or maybe there were games that just never made it to North American market and they’re re-releasing them in really high quality versions. So for instance they create the labels, the cartridges, they also create the manuals, the boxes, it’s pretty impressive stuff. Let’s take a look.
Splashdown: Rides Gone Wild is one of my favorite arcade racing games on the PS2 and today I play four of my favorite tracks from the crazy fun game! This game is unique in that each of the theme park inspired tracks change during each lap. Plus there is a robust trick system, crazy over-the-top characters and lots of unlockables. If you are looking for your next Playstation 2 Hidden Gem, this is it!
