Post of the day.

I'm holding the Saturn version on my hands at the moment. The fact that it contains pure, unadulterated Zuntata in CDDA format helps a lot.

KING FOSSIL

That and the original Loom for PC. Duke Nukem (the old one), Zak Mc Kraken or whatever it was called, the original Sim City, Hexen, Descent, Forsaken and a loooooong etcetera.

Oh! Thexder for the MSX. Boy, I really liked that one.

I've only played one Darius game (pretty sure it was on PS2), and it was a lot of fun =[

And the Huge Battleship intro is the best thing. I love it so much.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to more glorious Zuntata in Darius Burst, even if it is for the PSP. Remind me to post a picture of myself wearing that Darius t-shirt which came out earlier this year.

Oh man, I remember loving that game.

*Thinks* Does Day of the Tentacle count as obscure? Or the original Sam & Max?

Don't know how many other people will know it, but I pretty much cut my gaming teeth on Pitfall II: Lost Caverns (Adventurer's Edition) for the Atari 5200*, among several other games on that and the 2600 as well (anyone remember Combat?  Missile Command?).

... which reminds me, I should dig the system out and play sometime.

I played Missile Command despite never having an Atari. Arcade Missile Command is where it's at.

I am not Odysseus.

And it is absolutely Marvelous. I am glad I was in Europe for that one.

All Kirby games get horrible names when they cross into PAL territory.  Fact.

Kirby's Avalanche was okay, but I think Puyo did it better.
I like Tetris Attack better.
Bust-A-Move was... okay, I guess.

Kirby Block Ball was my first Kirby game.  Great game.
