I can't believe how good the music is and smooth the gameplay is too.

Spark Mandrill stage music FTW! B) Sigma's stage music is just beautiful....

Great game my friend.

Absolutely! I stood there just listening for awhile. Armored Armadillo's stage music is outstanding too! I started dancing around in my seat the second I heard it!!

SPOILER My brother found the Street Fighter reference Capsule by accident! You can do a Hadouken!!! How awesome is that? XD I LOVE Megaman X for the SNES!

Not really a spoiler that anyone who has played MMX knows about the Hadouken. Lol Although it was nice to see how excited you are for finding it Retro it reminds me when I first found it lol.

I believe it is Megaman X2 that has the dragon uppercut that Ken and Ryu do as an Easter egg.

@Waveboy: I remember the California Raisins cartoon, I had the Raisins bedsheet set and went as one for Halloween one year lol. And yes Darkwing Duck did remind me of the Megaman games it was probably my third favorite after Ducktales and Chip N Dales. As for Talespin umm yeah it was horrible I still have that game too I think I maybe beat it once thats how bad it was.

Lol, just thought I'd be safe, because I know I'd rather find a cool Easter egg like that then read about it n a forum. I'm sure anyone who had been following Capcom through the SNES days would have been excited by it. History repeats itself I guess.
EDIT: Man the X series use to be so good, I haven't beaten the game yet and I'm already hunting down (and found!) good deals on x2! What happened to you Capcom!

Kings of Demons and Demon Crest look awesome! i never got a chance to play those 2 back on the SNES sadly. Anyways, I'm just about to unload on some retro lovin', as expected my bundle of 80's awesomeness will go beyond(OoOoOoOoO I bet that gave ya the chills.lol) videogames as always muhaha. lol

And I'm not sure i even feel like getting a Genesis....I had one as a kid, and while there were a few or so title I dug it just kind of leaves a bad taste in my mouth, especially in comparison to the brilliant stuff that hit the SNES during the time.

But I'll always have a soft spot for Castle of Illusion, Splatterhouse 2, Rock Knight Adventure and a few others.

King Of Demons was only available on the super famicom im lucky i found an english repro cuz i was about to pay almost 300$ for the Japanese version! if you break the tabs in yer snes you can play super famicom games as well, but i wont break my snes tabs...i use my retron3 instead.
and i love the Splatterhouse series...ive got 1, 2, and 3 and Splatterhouse Wanpaku Graffiti, and for any random reason i wanted to say i LOVE retro stuff and especially retro gaming, i spend a great amount of money on my only hobby in the world. its my entire life and it makes me happy

Just last week, I picked up the complete series of Sonic SatAM. Pretty good show so far.

Oh man, those ninja turtles action figures totally brought back memories, I would spend hours playing with those things while watching the cartoon or movies. Good choice in NES games too, if you like Duck Tales you should give Chip n' Dale a shot, it's another great Capcom-Disney game.

@WaveBoy Do you remember that old California Raisins Christmas special, that used to appear on local T.V. That really brings back memories. The first season of Heman is available for streaming on Netflix, for anyone who has Netflix and is interested. I never really cared for the Masters of the Universe live action movie, even though I bothered my mother to see it forever.

@WaveBoy You said you like classic horror movies from the 80's. Well I'm trying to remember the title of one, maybe you can help me. It's a film about a huge church or university and a group of people that are trapped inside and terrorized by all types of evil aberrations. At one point I remember there was a floating nun. It wasn't "Prince of Darkness" because I thought it was until I recently watched it.

That game's actually not too bad. Though it definitely will become a pattern-memorization game. I haven't actually finished the game yet, but I've played about half of it.
Perhaps the game is decent because it's pretty much just a graphics hack of an unrelated Japanese game.
I'd say it was worth the $2 and shipping I paid for it on ebay.

EDIT: The pics were pretty large, so I'll just post the links to the blog posts where i put the pics up instead!
I've gotten a few good retro and import games lately, thought I'd share them here! X-Men for Genesis, Ultraman for SNES, Yo Noid for NES and a handful more, I have pics and short descriptions up on some of them here:

Haven't bought it yet, but I am trying to get an NES! I've found multiple auctions on seller refurbished NES's. The one I'm keeping a close eye on comes with the NES, all hook-ups, my choice of 2 classic controllers or 1 classic and 1 NES Max controller, (If you have any suggestions on which pair to go with that'd be nice. I'm just going with 2 classic controllers right now) 1 Zapper, and my choice of 5 games. I'm going to choose Super Mario bros/duck hunt, 2, and 3, Metroid, and Ducktales. Hoping I can win the auction. If I get it I'll probably hunt down a copy of Megaman 2 also.

2 classic controllers totally. The NES Max was more "Min" if you know what I am saying, I couldn't use that thing back then and I wouldnt want to use anything but the best D-pad ever made which is the NES controller. Oh and good luck and better not bid against me on the same NES games I want

Dude, did you just say the California Raisens? As in the talking Jazzified claymated California Raisens with the funky musical instruments?lol Aside from the food, I actually had a few California raisen toys back in the day, They didn't do much but i just loved them for some reason.

And awesome commercial by the way! Which remindes me, I definitly need to the get the complete Ghostbusters Cartoon series on DVD soon! Do you remmeber the first Boogey man episode? That gave most of the us kids nightmares back in the day.

nd as for Darkwing Duck, it was easily the best out of the 3 regarding Tail Spin and Little Mermaid. It felt a lot like Mega Man in a way, while feeling completely fresh at the same time. The Little mermaid was painfully easy, and pretty boring half the time while Tail Spin's flight controls were awful, was never a fan of that one growing up.....Stay away from that one, farrrrrr awaaay.lol

@WaveBoy I loved the California Raisins. I had this hat, it was like painter hat style with the flat top and had California Raisins all dancing all the way around it. It was so awesome! I also had the figure of the guy with the 80's shades and my sister had another. They were boring toys but for some reason I thought they were cool. Claymation is another I miss from taht time period, loved that commerical. They sure dont make things like that anymore now do they!

I remember that Boogeyman reveal from the Ghostbusters, that creepd me out as a kid too! That would be awesome to get an animated DVD series like you did with Captain N and He Man. Overall though nice 80's purchases! Glad to see you got Contra as I know how special that game is for you and the fantastic NES classics Ninja Gaiden and Ducktales. How fun is must be at your 80's shrine that you call your home

I was thinking about checking Slackers to see if they had Oracle of Ages and Seasons. I've never played those games before. I assume they're pretty good, what do you guys think?

They look pretty fun, from what I've seen. I recently bought the original Metroid NES game for my best friend. For myself, I bought Metroid Zero Mission. As soon as I can accumulate a couple more dollars, I'll be buying Metroid II, as well. There are several GB and GBA games that I would like to get from a used game store near me, but I can't afford them all.

I won Megaman 2 AND 3 on ebay for $8! I don't have an NES yet to play them, but I just couldn't pass up such a good opportunity. I can't wait to get an NES and play these two games. I love Megaman and I know 2 is going to be amazing. 3 seems pretty good and fun, but it's not nearly as liked as 2. From what I seen it looks fun too though.
