Eh, I bought one from hit-japan for $17 + 5 slow as fuck shipping a few days back. I'm in no hurry, it's not like I haven't played the game before.

Took a few hours and really cleaned the business out of my carts tonight, all of them just slide in and play like they were brand new.
Here's the collection so far.

I kind of hate the surfing in T&C. I wanted to pay as the cat in a suit from the back of the box and you could not. YOU COULD NOT.

To this day, the game is really T&C Surf Design SKATEBOARDING ONLY.

There is no surfing game, only heartache.

Obviously kids have limited control, but it's always interesting to hear about people missing out on what I considered a staple of the platform. That was probably the best shooter available in the US until Thunder Force III came out. That statement may or may not be related to the fact that my first three retail NES games were Contra, Castlevania II, and Life Force, while my first two retail Genesis games were Shadow Dancer and Thunder Force III. Yes, my impeccable taste was developed early.

I want to reach into your pic and put pro wrestling where it should be. And batman.

I tend to put sequels in after their original games, even if it breaks the pattern. Metal Combat would sit right behind Battle Clash in the B section, and Zelda II: The Adventure of Link would be right behind the Legend of Zelda in the L section.
