StarTropics/Tear Jerker


 * So, we're gonna talk about a little gem of a series that goes way back to the NES, namely Star Tropics. It's the story of one boy, a yoyo and some of the most trollish level design to ever come out of Nintendo. Ever. Moving along now, you play through the game in search of the main character, Mike Jones's uncle, an esteemed researcher after he's been kidnapped by Prime Invader Zoda, an alien conqueror.  To put things into perspective, my family got this game launch day in 1990, and I only recently found it again and played it to the ending. I am 20 and I still had one manly, yet heartwarming tear to shed at that conclusion.
 * Zoda's Revenge: Star Tropics 2 then comes along and adds to this all with a return of the Prime Invader as he  I wish if they would make a third game every time I reach that part... I loved those characters.
