Definitely pick it up if you get the chance. An overlooked gem for sure!

And thanks for the kind words! :D

Re: What's the rarest game you own?

I used to have a copy of Mega Man for the Game Gear, which you don't see every day. Traded that away from some more common (and much more fun) SNES games.

My copy of Earthbound is probably the rarest game in my collection, although I'm not convinced it's all that rare.

Incredible selection! I imagine its relative proximity to Japan doesn't hurt.

Re: Is Battletoads fun?

Just wait until the Rat Race level (stage 10 or something?), my friend and I went fucking bonkers during that level and I haven't forgotten it since. One of the scariest levels ever. Once you figure out the speeder bike level, it's cake. Beat it once and you'll pass it (pretty much) every time. It'...

SNK doesn't own the rights to that game. After Data East went under, the rights went to a different publisher.



Nooooooooooooo! Guys, let's all chip in and buy the rights to Windjammers. We can call it "Racketjammers." :lol:

Re: TMNT Tournament Fighters

I only own it on the SNES, but I love it. It's a great, relatively unknown fighter. Glad to see someone else feels the same way! :mrgreen:

Just thought I'd chime in here. I bought an AES about a year ago and have a handful of common games (Samurai Shodown 2, Alpha mission 2, Art of fighting 2, Magician Lord, etc.) and as a child of the '80s, I absolutely love the fact that own something that I once thought to be unobtainable. It's prob...
