Luigi's Mansion (3DS)
Fire Emblem Awakening (3DS)


Does Luigi Mansion have a regular cover? I read something about a cool, glow in the dark cover, but I have a feeling it wasn't for the US release.

Liberation Nation - 3DS Eshop
Gunman Clive - 3ds Eshop

I guess it's just Nintendo eshop, but I wanted to show that they're 3DS games

I recently picked up Batman Returns and Super Return of the Jedi for my SNES. So that means I now have all of the Batman games for the Super Nintendo which were released(I'm not going to count Return of the Joker since it never saw a commercial release) as well as the full Super Star Wars series.

Nice!

I really miss my copies of The Empire Strikes Back and Batman Returns now :(

If I could go back in time I'd slap kid me for trading away his games.

So I guess you have The Adventures of Batman and Robin too. Awesome. I feel like that game never got the classic status it deserves.

Oh man this so many times. I'd tell kid me to actually take care of his boxes/manuals too.

How do you feel about the Genesis version?

Same, and make sure I keep track of everything.

For Batman, I now have The Adventures of Batman and Robin, Batman Returns, Batman Forever, and Justice League Task Force, which offers him as a playable character. For other DC characters, I also have The Death and Return of Superman, which...now that I think about it, that might be it for video games on the SNES based on DC characters.

I think it's one of the best run n gun games on the system, up there with Contra Hard Corps and Gunstar Heroes. I also think it's a horrible Batman game. It doesn't really do much with the license beyond having sprites who look like Batman characters. Plus, there is no small irony to playing a run n gun game with a character who hates guns. As a game though, it's fantastic. It has great graphics and a killer soundtrack that sounds like it would only work on the Genesis with its unique audio capabilities. It's also tough as nails. I'm proud to be one of the few people who beat that game. It's great getting to play as Robin too,which you don't get to do in the SNES game.

So yeah, I just bashed it and praised it at the same time :lol: I would recommend it more to run n gun fans than Batman fans

Awesome! That's a fun collecting goal. I might have to try JL Task Force some time just cause Batman's in it.

I can definitely see that. It does remind me that the Sunsoft Batman games on the NES had him using guns too, which was really bizarre.

Yeah, going for a particular company or character intrigues me, but there are tons of comic-based games on the SNES. Not just Marvel or DC, but Image, as well as games based on properties related to comics such as Dennis the Menace or The Addams Family, European comics such as Asterik and Lucky Luke, Japanese manga, etc.
