Joe has been playing video games since he was four, which, if you've been keeping score, was a very long time ago. A fan of games both new and old, he now parades around the internet spreading the gospel on forgotten gaming gems that are still cheap and easy to find via his show The Backlog that no one watches. His mom says you should follow him on Twitter (@SpaceKappa).

I was just thinking about this game today after watching the new Nostalgia Critic review. I don't own it, but I tend to keep an eye out for this game when I look for NES games.

Interesting, I didn't even know there was a NES version of Jurassic Park! Never ceases to amaze me what they were able to do with the graphics of some of those later NES games. That game looked and sounded stellar.

By the way, what is that shooter game in your montage at the beginning? I think it's the third one. It looks absolutely rad.

@Aggro Sky That's Sub-Terrania for the Sega Genesis! I did my first episode on that game, but I didn't know what I was doing back then so the episode itself is pretty horrible. :P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zRh8DQQCg8

@SpaceKappa @Aggro Sky I didn't think it was horrible at all! Yes, your newer reviews are more polished but all in all not bad for your first review. Man that game looks awsome. I'm going to have to give it a try at some point.

By the way, I followed you on Twitter. I'm trying to follow all the contributors on this site. If you feel like returning the favor feel free :)
