Thank you for posting the explanations.  The Turbo Grafx 16 mini was something I missed and wished I had purchased.  It was a balk at the time... kick myself  ???   And Gates of Thunder should have been included lol... HOW DARE THEY?!  And yes, a bit surprised they included Lord's of Thunder and not Gates (maybe there was a licensing or other reason).

I am planning to reply to your Retron GX post soon.   There are a couple questions I have between the Mega Retron and the Retron GX.  That post is coming soon.

PS... I love Darius and have tons of variations of Darius.

I have an Awesome memory of playing Halo: ODST with @SpartanEvolved @Grindspine and @mastermario.  We completed the entire game during a LAN session.  This was tough... maybe even grueling to finish the game in 1 night.

I also have fond memories of playing Gears of War 2 and 3 with several others... and I believe @SpartanEvolved as well.   Halo Reach... same thing.  Those were really awesome and fun times in Gaming.

I noticed the Super Pocket Capcom Edition on Amazon is $59 right now... which is 14% off.  Don't know how long that will last.  This system has a pretty cool blue and yellow look.

I was hoping Rick Henderson would go on sale.  So far is has not and is still at the $40 mark.  I'm interested in this game... was hoping too pick it up for a discount.  I might pull the trigger at the price for the physical edition... just not yet.

Has anyone checked out Pokémon Pokopia for the Nintendo Switch 2?  This is a new installation that is something like Animal Crossing (not exactly... but like it).  It looks interesting and different than other Pokémon games.  So far, reviews seems to be good except there are mixed reviews on Amazon.

Features Per Amazon and Nintendo's site:
  • Gift with Purchase: While supplies last, receive an in-game flat-leaf plant to start off your adventure!
  • Use other Pokémon's moves, like Bulbasaur's Leafage, to revitalize and navigate the world around you.
  • Meet and befriend more Pokémon as you help nature flourish.
  • Gather materials to create items and furniture, till the fields to grow delicious crops, build homes for the Pokémon you meet, and more—there's so much to do!
  • Experience a world with varied weather, real-time days and nights, and other surprises.
  • Build a nice big home of your own, then invite Pokémon, and even other players via local wireless* or online**, to visit.
  • Host your friends playing on Nintendo Switch 2 or Nintendo Switch, even if they don't have the game, via GameShare****
  • Shape the world and build a cozy new life with Pokémon as a Ditto transformed to look like a human.

@BLUEVOODU

not even interested or motivated to even have a concern about watching it...............sorry

I am just not into digging up dead bodies and trying to bring back the past to relive something that was special in its time. You just can't go home again, to coin that phrase. It is so true. A reboot of something with different people gets my attention, but that would quickly fade if something is out of whack.
I really don't want to see him play professor X anymore, let that other actor do it. :))
