I kinda lost track of what's coming next and the dates are off could you update the schedule?

Calendar has been updated.
I'm planning on sticking to the single path now.
I don't think we're ready for two games at once.

Looks good! I like how it's spread out to more or less a game a month.

So we are doing Dig Dug until the 23rd (I'll see if I can catch up with the backlog then), then Jet Set. I'll have a chance to catch up as I've already finished Castlevania, also Virtua Cop 1 and 2 I cleared them either under the default settings or very near to it. But I'll see if I remember. Nights I will replay even if I have finished it, because I only got Cs and I'd like to try my hand at getting all As.

Nintendo Castlevania? My side-scrolling platformer skills are lacking at the moment, so that should be brutally punishing.

I've been messing with Alien Hominid in the meantime, and it's killing my thumbs. I forgot how hard the default difficulty levels were.

the PS2 version of Nights Into Dreams is Japan-only. Which means I won't be able to participate. Blah.

The more I think about it, I'd like to voice my opinion on the Together Retro choices. I think that the TR gaming will go over better when the game chosen has been ported to several systems. I mean, when we did Dig Dug then pretty much everyone could play it in some capacity no matter what their system of choice, because there were so many ports/versions to choose from. But in the case of the upcoming NiGHTS, you have to have a Saturn (or Japanese-enabled PS2 and most likely expensive import) to join in on the TR fun. I'm just guessing that not as many people will get to play along this way.

That's typically how I choose, but I chose NiGHTS partially because of Christmas NiGHTS since the holidays are coming up. Most future choices will be very platform-independant.
