Nice collection, a lot of really solid titles in there. I noticed Kid Icarus in your NES games. How is it? I've never played it or seen it played, but have always been curious.

Was at a game store over the weekend that had an import white Bionic Commando cart that said it was left as Nazis in the PAL version. Is yours like that? I'm just curious as that would be amusing that you guys get screwed on censoring so much stuff, but that you might actually be getting to wipe them out. :lol:

It is a really solid game. It starts of wicked hard in the horizontal scrolling levels, it is an odd game in that it tends to get easier as you go on as you power up, etc.

Would be funny, but nah, our version is censored just the same at the NA version. I have a feeling the white cart was repro cart. Unless you are referring to the label, in which case they may have been mistaken (or some other PAL zones may have got it, but I doubt they would do 2 conversions for the same game).

EDIT: Also put up some images of my setup.

The US one has a blue block on the label, not a white one.

Yeah I know, it threw me off when you said "white cart", in which case as I said, I think they are mistaken or possibly it is a repro inside a PAL cart, but hey, who knows.
