I remember the day I picked up Clay Fighter brand new. I thought it was sooooo cool that it had a theme song and not just theme music.  Not the most common thing in the 16-bit era.

You know, I just realized that I have never played Clayfighter on a cart. Always through ZSNES. But that Izzy Olympic game you picked up on Genesis is fantastic. I remember playing that one as a kid.

I was pumped when I saw it on the shelf (Izzy).  Got it for a buck ;D

It was at a local shop that I worked at for years and I often chat it up with the current manager (he's a fellow game nerd and spends a lot of time on NA).  I grabbed it and he was like "Wait, I thought that was a sports title.  Dammit!"  LOL!  Score for me!  Their prices are very fair, but being that the manager is a game nerd, it's hard to find super deals.  It's a record/movie/game store, so not everyone that works for the chain is a gamer, unlike the game shops, which means that I can occasionally find killer deals at certain stores :)

My copy of Adventure Time is also the collectors edition. How do you like it? The sword was neat. But the game is short, I've played it about 2 hours and I'm 65% through it already.

But that way I'm guaranteed the Nintendo code inside.

Rest assured, it's worth $40. Probaly the second best 3DS game besides Super Mario 3D Land.

I don't know, it is good, but in order so far ad to what I've played/own is:

1. Resident Evil Revelations
2. Paper Mario Sticker Star
3. Super Mario 3D Land
4. Heroes Of Ruin.
5. LOZ Ocarina of Time 3D
6. Street Fighter 4 3D
7. PAC-Man Party 3D

Games that are not worth crap in my opinion are:

1. Dream Trigger 3D (I mean seriously what is the point of this game?)
2. The Hidden (it blows my mind how cheap they make a game... Seriously bad game.)

Mildly relevant?

???  What does it have to do with pickups?

Was just reminded of it by all the ClayFighter talk. :D That line always cracked me up.



So, after cleaning and testing all the cart games from that big haul... The Chrono Trigger works perfectly fine ;D

... And I've run out of UGCs. :-\

It's got nothing on Poo Poo Platter, or Earthworm Jim.

Real talk, though, Earthworm Jim was beast.
