How Is Your SNES Gaming Going?

[Ack]

Charles Barkley was in early home copies of NBA Jam until he got his own game (Shut Up and Jam!)

Charles Barkley has a comic book in which he plays basketball against Godzilla. He can be in whatever he wants.

[TSTR]

Reminds me I still need to play Shut Up & Jam Gaiden.

That is the first time I have ever heard anyone use the word "good" to describe Chaos in the Windy City.

Just know that it's the reason Jordan wasn't in NBA Jam.

I dunno, I guess I just have a soft spot for SNES platformers. I can't say that I've played one that I haven't enjoyed.

Just thought I'd bump this thread for Umihara Kawase, a really well made platformer that was Japan-only, just released this week on Steam. It says it's "the latest version" but it looks like the same game.

Holy shit that may be the most random thing I've ever seen on Steam.

One of the sequels also got a Western digital release: Yumi's Odd Odyssey for the Nintendo eShop (was a physical 3DS release in Japan).

It is also supposed to be pretty awesome. I plan on picking it up for the 3DS or Wii U at some point.

If that Umihara Kawase hits GoG I consider that a quick reasonable purchase right there. It probably will eventually those cute anime titles seem to come over kind of like Hyperdimension Neptunia rebirth 1 did.

Sticking to SNES, I actually just re-acquired Mega Man x with the manual too thankfully. It was the only mega man X game I ever liked, should be fun to pick away at it again.

I had a new Super Famicom game arrive in the post today - Märchen Adventure Cotton 100%.

I only had a quick shot, but it's a ton of fun. It's going to take a while to learn the boss patterns I think.

It's a shame the PC engine, NGPC and Saturn games are so pricy, I'd like to play more of them.

I'm losing interest in the "SNES" - I'm essentially being priced out, sadly. I've only purchased one domestic SNES game this entire year - Raiden Trad - though I have purchased several Super Famicom titles. If pricing trends continue I may jump ship and switch over to Japanese games completely. Not just for SNES, but for the NES as well. Things have gotten to the point where the NES and SNES games on my "want list" are more expensive than the AES games on my "want list." Can't complain too much as I have managed to accumulate over 100 SNES/Super Famicom titles these last few years.

Haven't been playing much SNES lately. I've been busy and haven't been playing much of anything, really.

Tell me about it. I was lucky enough to buy Super Turrican 2 for $20 back in 2008. Guess what it goes for now.
