I was wondering about that too. I just assumed he meant the first NES one.

And isn't there already a suggestions thread?

Anyway, thanks for the schedule. It's nice to know what's coming up. I only own one of them (JGR- just got it) but I think I'll track down some of the cheaper ones. I haven't played any so I'm looking forward to checking them out!

I like this a lot. It'll give me some time to bargain hunt for the games I don't have. Nice to see Marble Madness up next that's one I do have.

Great list! Marble Madness (arcade) is in my top 5 games of all time. Looooove it! Mark Cerny really span people's heads with that game. So much originality, from the tracker ball to the isometric raytraced graphics to the first use of stereo sound and he was like 18 or something! The music is sublime 8)

The rest are awesome too. ANYthing is better than Lunar, that's for sure :wink:

Well, I think what we've safely seen is that RPGs are a gamble. The really popular ones everyone has already played. The gems tend to inspire more opinionated responses. Also, RPGs take more time in the game schedule. This kinda makes it difficult all around.

Hurray RC Proam. For bonus credit you could play RC Proam 2, Super RC Proam, Cobra Triangle, or Championship Proam (NES, GB, NES, and Genesis/Megadrive respectively), since they all share so much.

I've never played it...and I passed up buying it for 6 bucks a few months back. doh!
OH I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO SEE JURASSIC PARK OR MEGARACE FOR SEGA CD!!!
Genesis Jurassic Park > Sega CD Jurassic Park
Just depends on what your into. JP on the Gene is action oriented while the SCD version is adventure and puzzle solving w/ some shooting. I think they are both great depending on what you like and what you are in the mood for.

I love(d) RC Pro-Am! I played it more than any other racing game on the NES by a large margin. Too bad my friend never gave back my copy... oh well; I guess it's eBay time! I'll see if it withstood the test of time soon enough.

I'm glad that Toe Jam and Earl is on, as I've never played it.

Also Jet Grind Radio is awesome and everyone should try it.
