Old-school gamer. I started gaming with the Atari 2600. I became an addict with the arcade release of Street Fighter II at my college. The SNES release pushed me into buying that system and a lame arcade stick. I haven't looked back since then. I still consider the 16-bit to be the Golden Age of gaming. The current generation is keeping me pretty happy, especially with the fighting game renaissance that's happening lately. And, yes, I'm old.

How could you not buy Lost Winds, Dr Mario, or Defend Your Castle!???
First MegaMan, now I wanna see Sonic 4 in Genesis graphics done the old school way, as well as a old school Castlevania thats not on a handheld and old school Mario or Metroid too. Honestly, the old school stuff is just as good, if not better, than all the new shit they're putting out today.
You forgot Contra and Mario
I wish I had time to squint and read these scans now.
Never played the Zeros on GBA, but I'm still very hopeful, since so many people had good words for that series.
So. Great.
Hail Spacecat.
Nice find. I hope this comes to Wiiware in a timely manner.
Im getting bored with the offerings.
In the same line as Cloud, a Metroid or Castlevania game would rock Wiiware hard. Dammit Nintendo, put effing demos or GB/GBA games in the shop. Those would sell like jimmy-hats.
I'll have to check out the NP issue about the MM9 news...kinda hard to read all the tiny print.
Though that "turning around on a pill" shit looks creative and awesome.
This is nothing more than a Rom Hack
And to be totally honest, I'd really like to see a game designed more like MM7. While it wasn't my favorite game in the series, I think it was the best looking and had the best gameplay balance, so I'd really have liked to see a game based on that design scheme.
Magma Man
Galaxy Man
Jewel Man
Concrete Man
Hornet Man
Plug Man
Tornado Man
Splash Woman
Oh man... Plug Man? That can go all kinds of wrong.
Dr.Zoidberg
And now some people (not all, thankfully.) are crying foul about the graphics.
You just can't win.
Dr. Wily is the villain
"Man" Robot Masters
Roll, Rush, Beat, etc.
Dr. Light is still alive.
NOT outdated, uninspiring graphics.
And I lol'ed at the guy who commented that there's re-used assets in the game. This is CAPCOM. The company that put Morrigan in over 7 games through almost 10 years and never updated her sprite even once.
