    If it had better platforming mechanics and less frustration, I would recommend it. As it stands, I can only recommend it to people who genuinely feel NES was the golden age of gaming.

    A fine tribute to 80's platforming hits. [June 2014]

    8BitBoy is a great throwback to the NES era of platform gaming where skill and mastery were required if you were to make it through to the end of the game. It’s games like these that remind us that button mashing does not always win the day and sometimes, just sometimes, perseverance can be a reward into itself.
