Tonight I took on The Little Mermaid. It was my first time playing it and it was obviously made for a very young crowd. The levels are painfully short and the bosses are ridiculously easy. My video from start to finish is about 15 minutes long. Lots of the games based on similar properties at the time are fairly decent games, but this one is just sad.
I thought I had figured out a work around for my sprite issues, but unfortunately I have not. I found a couple programs that will read my capture hardware and show the sprites that are abscent from my current software, but the game lags severely on each one making it impossible to progress. Grrrrr. I really dont want to have to resort to my VCR since all the VHS tapes I have left seem to be in pretty poor shape. But I may have to. I might have to splurge and see if I cant find some brand new VHS tapes for order online.
Future Plans - Coming up to the 26th my NES progress is going to slow significantly while I use most of my gaming time to prep for a King of Fighters tournament. I may try and sneak in a quick game now and then, but wont promise anything.
