Still clinging on to hope that games from my NSO wishlist will one day appear on it.

Tried out Battletoads for the first time. What a game! How could they pull that off on the NES?

Muscle memory.

Pre-Microsoft Rare.

I can't get through the Turbo Tunnel in Battletoads without a rewind feature like in Rare Replay or NSO.

Nobody can. It's a nightmare.

Kid Icarus is one of my favorites on Game Boy..

Bionic Commando is also a good game. I just wish the NES game would come to NSO. I'm guessing that might have something to do with Hitler's head graphically exploding in the finale.
