You said it all, brotha.
I have much love in my heart for those two games.
I miss those dyke women in streets of rage with the purple and green hair.
I miss fighting them.

Yes, those two games are awesome. Anyone else like to see another Double Dragon?

I've heard, and it sounds cool, and Sim City 2000 is also coming to the GBA, which should be great.

strange_one · 12-07-2002, 11:11 PM

I never thought you'd see Alex Kidd again

Me too. I wish they would remake Shining Force.
That would fucking rock all hell.

whoa whoa, what kind of remakes are we talking about here??

Like just a port of the original game, or a complete redo?? I would love to play an updated version of the original Phantasy Star. I lost my SMS copy

Shining Force 2 was where it was at

avian chaos · 12-08-2002, 01:43 AM

I never got to play Shining Force 2

But I do have fond memories of staying up late at night at the tender age of 9 & ,much to the surprise of my older brothers, whooping some major ass on Shining Force.

that would be cool. I don't think arcade games displayed that "drugs aren't cool" warning until after that game came out.

I was amused by that, even as a little kid.

Why did an anti drug ad preface every game of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? I was already playing arcade games as opposed to doing drugs, I just wanted to get into it and kick Bebop's ass.

well, the original TMNT show had some anti-drug messages as well.

that is offically the best idea in the world for December 7th, 2002.(unless somebody invented the cancer-less cigarette)

all I remember about NARC were the ads - "NO ONE HAD THE GUTS UNTIL NOW!!!" & the game started with the "winner's don't use drugs" logo that you saw on a bunch of games.
