Never though that Ninja Gaiden and contra on the game boy would be this fun. Just beated NG and working on contra. I find it more fun and responding than alien wars ex on gba.

Ninja Gaiden Shadow is a good game, even if its really a Shadow of the Ninja port. Operation C, however, is just all-around awesome. I am glad you are enjoying it.

So I picked up my PS4 controller this morning only to welcome my hands to some jello like gunk on the back, apparently there was a sticker I missed on the backside text info and all that somehow moved a little overnight and it was a pain in the ass to get cleaned off. It's still a little sticky. WTF?

Yeah, Alien Wars is just a compromised port, while Operation C is just good stuff. You can tell Konami had gotten more accustomed to the GB hardware by then.

I was going to point out that NG Shadow is a stealth Shadow of the Ninja sequel, but prf beat me to it (as usual?). It's definitely a fun one. I was very tempted to drop the roughly $20 they were asking at a game store a while back, but ended up passing on it.

Oh, sorry, that's my bad. I snuck into your house last night and was playing Gal*Gun, and...yeah...you can put two and two together. Sorry. :oops:

I think i heard about that somewhere but completly forgot. Just checked shadow of he ninja on the NES to compare and i like the GB version a bit more. It has a good balance between not too hard but not too easy.

Damnit, lol

Seriously though, what's the best way to scrub a controller clean? It's still got some residue on the back and I can feel it when holding it. So annoying!

High percentage alcohol will do.

Yeah, I usually just wet a paper towel with 92% isopropyl and scrub it, but Goo Gone is definitely the undisputed king of getting shit off of other shit.
