Thanks a lot, Christopher for the first post!

[Christopher]

They updated...they put one game on it.

Keep this shit updated bitch.

[Tigerriot]

Yeah, we needed a thread like this. 

Unfortunately tonight's update was lackluster. 


At the moment i'm considering buying F-Zero, and i'm definitely buying Ice Hockey whenever that is released. 

I'm also considering Bonk, considering I never owned a TurboGraphix, and I always wanted to play this game.  It's tempting for $6, but i've heard that the emulation of the TurboGraphix games leaves a little to be desired.  I read somewhere that the TG-16 games look a bit blurred, and filtered.  Bummer.

The games look fine, and this is coming from a die-hard tg16/P.C. Engine freak.

Not paying $8 for genny games.

Ristar being the exception

[The Sceneman]

Arcade Golden Axe >>>>>>>> Genesis Golden Axe.

Its a crappy game anyway. The sequels are better.

I broke down and bought Sim City last night.  I honestly don't regret it one bit.

I had some really great memories with this game, and I truly shocked me how into it I got when back when the SNES came out.  I still think it's a great game today.  Just a great interactive micromanagement game.

[The Fake Shemp]

I played Sim City on the SNES so much my mom took the cartridge away from me so I could do homework.  I'd play and play and pray for Bowser to show up and tear shit up.

GUNSTAR HEROES TONIGHT.

I got it, Super Star Soldier, and Bonk's Adventure.

Gunstar is awesome...as expected. <3

Never played any TG-16 game ever so Bonk and SSS are new to me. They both rule.

[Beezy]

Who owns the rights to Top Gear? I'd love to see that game (only the first one) on the VC in the future.

[Tigerriot]

I couldn't resist buying Ice Hockey, and Gunstar Heroes today. 

This is the first time i've ever played Gunstar Heroes, and I am impressed.  I've always loved Treasure's work, and this game is just brilliant for the Genesis hardware.  Shooting done right.

[bork]

I need to check the VC store today.  All the games that got released for the VC in the States were out at the Japanese launch, and it said something about new games today.  Hoping for some MSX games and more PC Engine stuff.

Hey, cut me some slack.  I am a former owner of Radiant Silvergun. 

I would freaking die if that game ever came out on either Nintendo's store, or Microsoft's marketplace.  I loved the game while I owned it, but I just couldn't turn down selling it for $150.
