![](http://i.imgur.com/nXZSFO7.png) Hello! Welcome to Section-Z and Friends? When I was a kid, I remember renting a game on the NES called Section-Z mainly because I really liked listening to the title music. However, when I was done listening to the music and actually played the game, I found that the game was pretty neat and had some really nice mechanics. When I was older and had access to the internet/MAME, I found out that it was actually a port of an arcade game and the first of a loosely tied trilogy of games involving heroes with jetpacks. I also found other games which seems to have taken an influence from Section-Z which also are worth looking at. So, let’s get to playing. * * * GAMES THAT I WILL BE LOOKING AT (Videos links edited in as they are made) - Section-Z (NES/FDS) [Area 1 (Sections 00-19)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7C8AE87gzNY) [Area 2 (Sections 20-39)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iWhYBT18r8) [Area 3 (Sections 40-59)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBQ8JVdPtVg) - **Section-Z (Arcade)** Full Play - Side Arms: Hyper Dyne (Arcade) Quick Look Side Arms Special (PC Engine CD) - Before Christ - **Forgotten Worlds (Arcade)** Quick Look - Abadox: The Deadly Inner War (NES) Quick Look - Final Mission/S.C.A.T (NES) S.C.A.T - Special Cybernetic Attack Team Final Mission - Legendary Wings (NES) Full Play Part 1 Full Play Part 2 - Legendary Wings (Arcade) Full Play * * * Why are you only doing “Quick Look” for some games and “Full Plays” for others? Preference. It’s about how much I like playing the game and what I feel would be interesting. For example, Side Arms is kind of long and honestly a bit samey so I don’t know if I’ll be playing through the whole game. I don’t really care for Forgotten Worlds or Abodox so I’ll just be taking brief looks at those and I very little experience with Final Mission. Wait…why is Legendary Wings on there? Because I like it and it has some side-scrolling flying sections that kind of remind me of Section-Z. So you are super good at these games right since you played them a bunch? Nope. Expect blunders and bad gameplay every once in a while. I’m not going to be abusing save states or anything like that, but I will use easy difficulty selections if they give me the option. Hey, game X should totally be on that list! If you think I should take a look at a certain game, let me know and I’ll consider it if I feel it fits. The only game I’m straight out avoiding is Omega Five as I don’t own it and from what I remember from the demo, it plays like ass. Also, this is my first video LP in a while so there might be some roughness around the edges. I’m also notoriously bad with audio balance so if you hear anything off, let me know. Thanks for stopping by! ---

So, uh, finally got off my ass, rounded up some people, and recorded a new episode! [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/hBQ8JVdPtVg/hqdefault.jpg "[LDP-SZF] Section-Z and Friends Episode 3 - Section Z (NES) Area 3") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBQ8JVdPtVg) We finish out the NES version of Section-Z with what some would call a whimperbang. ---

I genuinely like a lot of the ideas from this game, even if the execution is a bit flaky. Especially a fan of the character design. ---

I really enjoy your lack of inhibition in talking about a game(s) you love so much. Especially for a project this ambitious.
