I'd also like to nominate Magical Chase for the Shmup month.

Ultima series
Fallout series
Baldur's Gate series

What say you, Racket-community?
I think Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance could be a good choice as it was on PS2, GC, and oXbox.

Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance would be difficult for me to focus on in February. Word is some game called Diablo 3 will be coming out around then.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Magical Chase is expensive? I had no idea. I was just emulating it and thought it was a lot of fun. :lol:

It didn't occur to me to check the price.

I dunno about any other versions, both both the GBC and Turbografx versions are some of the rarest and most expensive games on their respective systems.

I don't even have a TG16 and I knew that that was one of the most expensive games for the system.
