Panzer Dragoon Saga and NIGHTS are the most popular Saturn games among collectors, so keep an eye out for those. ;)
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

Most of the best games are import-only, unfortunately. But Astal, Nights, and Burning Rangers are musts.

Panzer Dragoon Saga, yeah right.  Good luck getting your hands on that one.

How is Hyperstone Heist though?  I know Turtles in Time is generally considered the better game, but what's the consensus on the Genesis equivalent?

It sort of feels like a Turtles in Time romhack.

But I would say after TMNT arcade, TiT, and TMNT III, it's one of the best TMNT games. It's a bit short, though.

Thanks guys. I was looking at an Astal video the other day.

Picked up a sealed copy of the SNES version of the Beavis and Butthead game.

Well, they've done it. The new Club Nintendo rewards appear to be 3DS/Wii U only.

Mario Picross (3DS) - 100 coins
Starship Defense (3DS) - 150 coins
Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels (Wii U) - 150 coins
Balloon Fight (Wii U) - 200 coins

Not exactly a prime haul, but it seems clear that they'll be pushing the Wii U over the Wii from now on.

How is Doom on the SNES?

A friend wants to sell me his copy for $10.

Yeah, $10 is a little high, but if he needs the money, I'll talk to him.

Oh yeah, I've seen those around.

I'd love that ALTTP one myself.

PC Engine and MSX are returning to the Wii-U VC in Japan

Konami finally got off their duff. Now to bring back the TG-16 for the Wii-U. I want some Rondo of Blood on my Gamepad.
