Nooooooooooooooo! Do not download King of Monsters -- you will HATE yourself for it after the first two minutes. It's one of the dullest games I've ever played. I remembered having some fun with it in the arcades until I picked up the SNK Arcade Classics disc for $20 on the PS2 (overall an excellent collection, and coming to the Wii soon: 16 Neo-Geo games, one of which is KoM). I played KoM for about five minutes until I realized it wasn't going to get any better or faster (walk over to other monster... punch other monster... wait while other monster punches you and you fall down... wait while your monster rolls around and gets back up... walk back over to other monster and punch them. repeat ad nauseam) and haven't been back to it since. Practically any Neo-Geo game is better than KoM (including Magician Lord).
Awesome! I remember playing Cybernoid for HOURS on the C-64 back in the day. It may look like a shooter, but it has as much exploration involved as the origindal Zelda or Metroid games did. Watching that video I can remember vividly a lot of those enemies and power-ups... so I guess they're still burned into my mind even 15-20 years later!

Re: Helix
Oh, cool! It's a like a mini Wii version of Para Para Paradise, the dance craze of Japan in the mid-1990s.
