The game centers on Fred, Jason’s pet frog that was rescued in the original Blaster Master™ game. The Plutonium Boss intended to inject microbots into Fred and Jason so they would be destroyed even if Jason defeated him, but he only managed to inject Fred. After the opening story, the game begins with Jason and Sophia being miniaturized and injected into Fred to seek out and destroy the microbots and the diabolical structures they are creating inside Fred that will soon prove fatal. “It’s a pretty clear video game spin on Fantastic Voyage kind of adventure.”, Ireland stated.

I still want to play this. Blaster Master combined with Life Force? Hell yeah.

Ironclad for the Neo Geo CD is today's VC game.

Yep. I can't believe they released Rondo and Iron Clad with 15 days. And for $19 instead of $500.

LOL @ the collector's market. They must be going nuts right now.

Quick, someone release Magical Chase!

The VC release of Iron Clad is interesting. None of the Neo collectors like the CDs, so someone was able to take a dump of the VC release and make homebrew AES and MVS carts with it. I'd love an MVS copy for the right price (which it isn't), but I'll stick with the $10 VC one.

edit: Fixed Freudian typo ("take a dump on the VC...")

The price will probably never hit the sweet spot either. After time it will just get more expensive. Would be really nice to have though.
Wouldn't mind having a MVS cart of Crossed Swords II either.

I checked a YouTube video of Ironclad before buying (thanks Nintendo!) and wasn't really all that impressed. Does it get any better than the first 3 stages? It seemed pretty bland.

I've been playing BIT.TRIP Runner nearly non-stop this week. It's all trial and error, but I love every minute of it.



Also, Kirby Super Star hit VC this week, which is pretty rad. I still need to pick up Rondo of Blood, Castlevania Rebirth and possibly Super Mario Kart, though.

Didn't feel like searching for another thread. Why in the flying fuck can you not use a classic controller with NSMB? A sideways Wiimote is not the most ergonomic thing in the world.

I'm assuming because there are platforms that are dependent on how you tilt the controller and mirror that movement. Also because Nintendo hates you.
