omg Ringside Angel :S

[ianwilson1978]

@pixelfox237 Not a fan? Fond memories for me... :)

Funny, it was The Super Shinobi in Japan, but got renamed Revenge Of Shinobi in the US. I played a lot of those games. I'd have to say Toejam & Earl and Castle Of Illusion were my favorites of that set. Altered Beast & Golden Axe were some other greats from that time period. Wish this was still the early 1990s. Things were much better back then as far as I am concerned.

[ianwilson1978]

@prodigyofpeace1983 Yeah it was Revenge of Shinobi in the UK also, I actually prefer that name to Super Shinobi to be honest.

I agree the early 90's was a special time to be a gamer, at least the memories are there :)

Are you actually japanese yourself? I based that on that you only used the japanese Mega Drive covers. One of my biggest favourites ever is Castle of Illusion. Thanks for the uploads!

Big thanks from Sweden! =D

[ianwilson1978]

@Sarato Thanks for the comment, I'm not Japanese but always loved the artwork on the Japanese games- it really cant be beaten! Castle of Illusion is a classic :)

You know some people don't like the audio chip on the Mega Drive, but when it's used well, it's pretty amazing.
