This game must've sucked considering they only showed you like 2 seconds worth of actual game play on the gameboy. I'm just going off how the commercial advertised it...
@Lestat57 nah it was cool. pretty much as good as the nes one, it was just a bit harder to distinguish the different "colors" on the black/green screen.
i got this game a couple of days (well about a week ago, just arrived in the mail a couple of days ago.) ago complete with box, inserts, poster (now prouldy being shown off on my wall) for about £7.
I was a senior in high school when this commercial came out and I remember cracking up about it back then...glad I was able to find it again on YouTube.
Combine the shrunken head with a smack in the face with a dead squirrel (a-la that Game Gear ad) and you might almost think you're playing a PSP if you squint.
It's been 18 years and I still remember this commercial!
