Petition to bring Worms to the Genesis and SNES

[travistouchdown]

The original Worms games were on the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis; but only in Europe. Piko Interactive:

A publisher of games old and new, has reached out to Team 17:

https://www.team17.com/

About bringing this amazing game to the SNES and Genesis in North America in a legitimate production run, for which all parties would be compensated, and has received NO response!

Lets rectify that situation and bring this great game to our favorite 16 bit consoles. Please sign below if you are interested in seeing this happen and possibly picking up a copy for yourself! I know I am!

Here is the petition itself:

But that wouldn't be a legal or an official release, which is what it sounds like these guys are doing.

I don't follow the new-retro market at all - what's with the hate for Piko?

He's an asshole.

$117 for a shady looking repro doesn't seem like a good option either.

I don't know much about the owner of PIKO (at all,) but at least they make nice games that are licensed by the original creators.

If you have any interest in seeing worms on the Genesis and SNES as an official licensed and produced copy, please take a minute and sign.

Change the currency to US dollar.  It's actually $30, not $117.

He's an asshole.

Have anything to expand on that?  I mean, if I ask he right people, they'll tell me *you're* an asshole, Mr. Hutt. :p

[wiggy]

Oh, I can be, no doubt.  Though I do feel as though I have fewer a-hole tendencies since having a child. I just don't have enough energy to be an asshole as often as I'd like

I have a long history worth the guy. He got pissed off at me for ignoring a solicitation message on FB in which he was trying to sell me mother 3 bootlegs for like $45 a pop, loose cart. This was about 4 years ago. Instead of deliberately offending and berating him with the response I would liked to have given, I just didn't respond.

After like 2 days of me not responding he sent some crazy rant message about how unprofessional it was of me to ignore his unwarranted and unwelcome solicitation.  He's made sure to say nasty things about me/RCG all over the web ever since.

He's got a super short fuse, and sometimes I don't even know what lights it.

edit: almost all of the time
