had another go at Nodes of Yesod - I dont normally play speccy stuff - but nice to try something different. 

Starting Ocarina of Time next week - time to see if RPGs from Nintendo are my thing or not

ha ha - how amazingly terrible and yet so collectable

amazing that Star Wars games were released for it (then given the Phantom Menace, maybe not....)

not strictly a compilation, but Retro Game Challenge is a DS game I've picked up a while back. 

Apart from that, the four listed at the bottom are the only ones I've heard about.

(Probably some stuff in Japan that we never got)

never knew Intellivision lives made it onto DS.  Was that a US release?

looks great - especially in special edition - but sadly it's not a good time funds wise for me, so unless the production run is long and it's still on sale in 6 months time, i'll probably pass.

this gen: buying a Wii (even if only for the kids)

retro: trusting the fly-by-night seller of a Mega-CD that it worked and paying £60 for essentially a plastic box.

Damn! You are going to hate me but I picked up my Mega Drive & Mega CD 1 for £35 including 5 games, oh and it was all boxed 

ha ha, no don't hate you - but not fond of the guy who ripped me off.  Still, 10 years collecting and it's the first and only time I've really been fleeced.  Bound to happen every now and then.

like 108 Stars below, I actually quite enjoy Castlevania: New Generation.

 (If you want a really bad Castlevania try the original Xbox game!)

due to the language barrier, I'm thinking of doing a Japanese MD schmup collection - though some of those are pricey I would guess.   I lost the link, but watche a great youtube collection video from a guy who did the same - seems a do-able feat

been on a slight Japanese Megadrive kick of late (very slight given the costs), but have bought Granada, KAGEKI, and Fist of the North Star in last month or two.

DK really is one of my all time favourites, but the Atarisoft version for my Vic20 was always too expensive, so I don't really know what it was like? Anyone play it?

I settled for the Anirog Krazy Kong which had the ropiest artwork in history

Spiderman Xmen is a fun, if bit odd game.   Almost like mini games, but with superheros and 2d platforming - worth a blast.

has the only Sonic title I ever really liked - great machine - I just haven't gotten into it

i still didn't make it to Battersea carboot - anyone ever been?  is it worth it?

all the boots around my way are on fields - so they've all been rained off except 1 over the last month - but i did get phantasy star online ver2 for 99p - plenty of ps2 for sale there, but i don't touch that.

sunshine might bring out a few bargains.....
