Haven't played it yet but I will... tomorrow.

Well... TODAY, actually, it's damn near 6AM, well I'll be
darned.

Damn man, how do you afford so many games if your job isn't
paying? What (or WHO) do you do?

College funds + The Best Mom Ever(love ya mah!)
I'm going to live the decadent lifestyle until my financial
well dries up and I die a broken poet.
You and I.. we're not so different you know.

I can't wait until the Donkey Kong Country port comes out -
Hands-down my favorite SNES game ever. What other really
great games has Rare made for Nintendo? Battletoads,
Battletoads and Double Dragon: The Ultimate Team, 007,
Perfect Dark, Starfox Adventure... What else am I missing?

Pilotwings- it's rumoured both a GC & GBA version are in the
works. After seeing the magic that is Monkey Target in super
monkey ball I have high hopes for it.

The Banjo Kazooie games are fantastic Rare platformers! I
haven't played either of them too much but they're quality,
for sure. Also for 64- Blastcorps, Killer Instinct Gold and
I THINK Diddy Kong Racing. Blastcorps is worth playing, I
rented it the first week I had a 64 and never played it
since for some bizarre reason, but it's fun and forgotten.

I think they made a SHITLOAD of NES games, none of which
(except maybe Battletoads) demonstrates the late Rare
dominance.

Good Rare NES games:
Snake Rattle and Roll,
Solar Jetman.

Digger T. Rock is charming in its own way too...

They made some WWF games and the immortal NARC, I think!
People actually explode into bits in that game...
hard...core.

Yeah- one of the first examples of identifiable "gibs" in a
game :D

Remember the arcade cabinet for it with "Winners don't use
Drugs" plastered all over it?

Totally. The best part of the first Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles movie was the kid playing NARC in the Foot's
hideout.
"Menthols or lights?"

And how could I possibly forget Snake Rattle and Roll and
Killer Instinct? I've been searching ages for a playable
ROM of Solar Jetman with no luck -- I've found about three
but they're all defective. Same story for Skate or Die II.

I've got them both, I can e-mail them to you if you want,
they're not big files. But I need your compliance, cuz, you
know, you've got a stone-age computer.

Permission granted.
Have you AOSed it up yet? It successfully carries on the
series' tradition of sexually ambiguous main characters.
Castlevania is the only game that gets you harder over the
heroes than the heroines.

I have to restart in DOS to get any sound out of either of
them. Only the ramp mode is playable in Skate or Die II and
Solar Jetman freezes at the copyright screen. They're
running on Nesticle version xxxx.xx(?) from 1997.
I know what I should do but I'm afraid to upgrade without
proper consolation.
