@Waveboy: Yea the SNES game was better than the Genesis version but the weird thing is with TMNT Tournament each version is different with its own storyline and characters. Really I plan to get each version the NES and the Genesis versions are next on my list. You can probably look up TMNT Tournament Fighters on Wikipedia and see how each one is different.

I never had the Technodrome or the Turtle Wagon my friends did though. The only vehicles I had was the sewer dragsters and a giant bee lol. I do remember the slime too but my parents wouldnt let me get it cause they didnt want my brother and I to get it all over the house which looking back I am sure we would have lol.

As for Chuck E Cheese I never really liked that place even when I was a kid, but than again where I grew up I had 3 mini golf parks in my area with awesome arcades and I didnt have to put up with bad pizza .

I just picked up a sealed copy copy of Final Fight One for the Game Boy Advance for $10.50! It is going to be like having some good old early 90's arcade on the go

Same here. I hope that game will answer some questions I have about the series. I think I'm gonna try beating Re:coded before I start playing it, though.

Big score tonight. I got eight games for 10 dollars...included were Final Fight 3, Mario All Stars and Super Metroid. I never thought I'd ever own FF3 in cartridge form. A goofy game I never heard of called Ardy Lightfoot came with it. Anyone have an experience with this game?

@Waveboy
Thanks for helping me see the light regarding the NES and your glowing recommendation made me purchase StarTropics as well. I cannot get off ebay now though haha... So many NES games at so little price

SMB2 is my favorite Mario game, glad to hear you hold it in such high regard!

Currently looking for a GBA SP/Micro or SNES. To buy the console and games for the SNES seem to be cheaper than getting Nintendo Points Cards so far, so I'm seeing if I can find a cheap-ish SNES or something.

Thank you eBay! lol

@xDemon720x I recently purchased a GBA SP and loving it so far, playing the Metroid games. Make sure to get the backlit screen! I still have my orginal SNES and just bought a NES - I prefer playing games on the original console instead of VC. For SNES I think most games are cheaper on VC (800 points) then buying a SNES cart and paying for shipping off of ebay. I am addicted to Ebay now though!

I had 2 SPs before, but I sold them and now I am really kicking myself in the face.

If you can get the shipping/delivery fairly cheaply then most of the SNES games are a steal. But it's all about shopping around. Besides, you don't get the classic feel from the VC version like how you do from the original, just holding a NES/SNES/N64 controller in your hands is somewhat heart-warming.

@WaveBoy - No reason to open it if you spent that much. You can get a loose cartridge for fairly cheap if you want to play the game. PLEASE don't open it!

I went out and bought Batman Returns, Maximum Carnage, World Heroes 2, and buy merchant suggestion, Swat Kats today. Then, my SNES won't turn on. Thing has turned on every time since 1991, and today it dies. I finally got a day to play games for a few hours and this happens. Hopefully I can fix it :- /

@Waveboy: I agree with Stuffy there. If it was me I wouldnt open it.

Oh man tough break on the SNES StuffyStuff I hope its nothing and you can repair it. Those are some great games particularly Batman Returns. IMO thats the best game based off of a movie yet. YOu cant beat the Danny Elfman score.
