Player's Review

D+Pad Hero is a Homebrew (Public Domain) Rhythm game developed for the NES in 2009 by Kent Hansen and Andreas Pedersen. You can download the rom file directly from the authors site "http://www.dpadhero.com/Home.html"

The games feature chiptune versions of popular rock songs such as Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child o' Mine", Michael Jackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel", Megadeth's "Countdown to Extinction", and Elvis Presley's "Burning Love".

I have previously played D+Pad hero 2 and that was the much better game as you would expect. This game is much more difficult as you try to get the pattern down between 2 buttons with lightning reflexes. Its still impressive to have this type of game running on an old console and is of commercial quality even compared against all the games in the consoles prime time.
