Yep, that's exactly what I was looking at ... Play-asia are out of stock at the moment I think, but I do quite fancy it.

[Alex Kidd IMW]It's as good as it ever was.

Damn right it is. I dug out my Master System a couple or years or so ago and it was still playable in it's own little way. Bloody annoying having to sit close enough to the TV to press the pause/menu button on it though - now THAT is hardcore.

Oh and I'm still totally shit at it.

I just took a look at youtube, it really brought back some memories, mostly bad. Transbot was the first game I bought for my MasterSystem. I'd saved the princely sum of £10 from my pocket money and it was either Transbot or Super Tennis. The box for Transbot looked more exciting. Turns out that both games were pretty atrocious, but Transbot probably wins for pure dullness.

Cartridge! fuck me it was bad enough on a card, why the hell did they release it on cart. Could you ever finish the game? I must have played it to death after Astro Warrior and Hang On.

It just loops the same stages round I believe. :(

Maybe it's time for a revival, Transbot: Wii! or Transbot: Source! :P

Really? I could only get to about the third section/level but I always assumed there would be an ending at some point...

How about 'Transbot: Endurance'?

I miss the days of Master System boxart. Some stunning ones.

I always remember thinking how much sleeker the boxes for my NES games looked. Even when they featured poor art (which wasn't really a concern at 8 years old) they invariably looked about a billion times more professional than Sega's retrospectively hilarious offerings.

After tearing my hair out for weeks I have finally been able to locate a Wii being delivered to my office tomorrow courtesy of Argos ( I work Saturdays) Now I stated that my office opens at 9.00 am but the lady on the phone was adamant that deliveries take place between 7.00 am to 3.00pm on a Saturday and I cannot specify delivery time. So guess who has to be in the office for 7.00am tomorrow.

I would not mind so much but my local branch of Woolworths which I have been going into everyday with no success got a delivery of Wii's this morning after I had completed my Argos transaction...sods law lol

I just completed Kirby's Adventure. It's exactly what I want from the VC. It's packed with lots of little levels that I can just go for two minutes between everything else that goes on in the world.

And with the completion of Kirby I think I've finally stopped my downloading addiction, although the fact I can't fit any more games on the internal memory has helped :blink: .

Just found out the save file size of Smash bros is over 100 blocks @_@;... bye bye some VC games :(

Would love to see that on VC - it used the memory card for saves though, so if that's awkward to change, like with the ghost-race saves on Mario Kart, they might not bother....

Be a shame though. Best musical villains in anything ever.

Just a quick question: is Sin and Punishment worth 1200 points and (probably) a lot of memory space? I've had a lot of fun with Gunstar Heroes lately (especially with a mate), which made me consider the purchase of the N64 game.

Yes but only if you like shooters.

According to VC-Reviews Lords of Thunder (TurboGrafx-16) was the only game released last night. I have no idea what that is. I have 2100 points after finally getting lucky with transfering my stars. I may finally get a VC game, the only question is what one.
