ho-lee-shit, thank you!

kristo · Mar-03-07, 09:48 PM

That Genesis list is in dire need of Rocket Knight Adventures. I don't remember too many games from that system, but that one always stuck with me.

GrandMasterPants · Mar-03-07, 09:59 PM

Contribution: River City Ransom (NES)

Not sure how many people actually played, though. Best beat'em up I ever played.

Triso · Mar-03-07, 11:09 PM

Good list, but Teenage mutant ninja turtles 1 shouldn't have a *, it's pretty weak compared to the 2nd and 3rd one.

TwistTrickz · Mar-04-07, 12:17 AM

bevis and butthead for the genesis

taco · Mar-04-07, 02:48 AM

no super punchout?

Shadow_Warrior · Mar-04-07, 03:05 AM

That list is still missing Metal Gear (NES). I mean c'mon it is THE original. Solid Snake and Gray Fox in the same game ftw

Less than Dan · Mar-04-07, 03:14 AM

Earthbound was NOT created by Enix!

It was developed by APE, which was a division of HAL, which developed many Kirby games.

Dovicka · Mar-04-07, 07:52 AM

lol, my brother told me it was done by enix and I just assumed cause it had the same menus and battle organization.
