Current Events > I'm so excited to play the Genesis compilation I'm getting for Christmas.

(+) Yeah! (+)

All those really fun old games, some of which I haven't played in 10+ years, like Gunstar Heroes, Wonderboy III: Monster Lair, Wonderboy V: Monster World, etc. There's stuff I've never played, though, like Space Harrier 2, and I'm particularly excited about Alien Soldier.

I got the Steam version for 5 smackers years ago on Amazon

It's ok
---

The Steam version didn't exist years ago. There were seperate Steam releases, though, but they only had some of the games from this each. I think there were 5 releases.
---

Gunstar Heroes really is a special game to play with a friend tbh
---

I'll be getting something like that, except for GBA
---

You know, I don't think I've ever played with a friend. Just quite a few hours alone.

Thankfully, people weren't obssessed with mutli-player back then.

Phantasy Star IV is among the Top 5 RPGs of the 16-bit era.

Seriously it is so good.

Gunstar Heroes and Streets of Rage II, though

You know, it's been at least 10 years since I last played Wonderboy V, I think. I've beaten it 2 or 3 times, though. Such a great game. Long, quite challenging, varied environments, good bosses.

The Switch version doesn't have Wonder Boy for some unknown reason
---

Yeah, I JUST saw this on Wikipedia. I can't believe it. I asked someone to get me the game for Christmas back in November, and assumed this was on it, as shown in the video I posted. What. The. Fuck. I'm really upset now. I was so looking forward to playing Wonderboy III: Monster Lair. A friend never gave it back to me, back in the day, so I haven't played it in ages. Wonderboy V would've been a lot of fun, as well. The XBox One and PS4 versions both have this. Why the fuck doesn't the Switch version? Who knows, perhaps they added it back in for the European release...although I doubt it.

I'm surprised, sad and upset now. I was planning to spend a lot of time with those games.
