Segaiden #020: Chack'N Pop & Bank Panic
Added 2021-11-10 13:59:23 +0000 UTCA pair of games this week that I was really looking forward to, and they didn't disappoint! Well, they didn't disappoint once I switched from using a defective Chack'N Pop card to a pirated ROM. I absolutely did not understand how Chack'N Pop could be so downright unplayable until I looked up some videos and realized my copy was inexplicably busted. Bank Panic, thankfully, was a delight from the moment I booted it up.
Also, I removed the duplicate Drolintro from last week's episode and re-uploaded. I have no idea how that made it through three different rounds of edits and review. Whew: https://youtu.be/H4PDmUKl5Bk

Both of these games look like actual fun on the SG-1000!! More importantly, Jeremy, you finally found the game that inspired a generation of musicians to drop their r’s. According to Wikipedia, the first song in such genre was 1986’s “6 in the Mornin’” by Ice-T. I’m sure I don’t have to spell out the clear conclusion that Mr. T not only imported an SG-1000, and stuck with it to the later titles, but was also an avid reader of the manuals, which I have to assume inspired his poetic lyricism after a full night of awkwardly holding that controller, and gave rise to the trivia question: “Who is the Original Gangsta Rappa?” “Chack’n”
