@Phosis:
You should clean the pins on that Sonic 3 and the S&Ks cart. It's a shame, because Sonic 3 & Knuckles is by far one of the best 16-bit titles ever.

Yup, went ahead and did that, and it appears to be working fine now.
Thanks!
Really? I always prefered it to the original. I thought the levels and music had a lot more ambiance to them. The powerups were better too.Quote:

I love the first 2 SMS games, and Sonic Blast / G Sonic. Other SMS Sonic games are choppy and sluggish... not good.Quote:

I thought Sparkster would be attacked. I actually like it way better than RKA. The levels are a lot more open-ended combined with bosses that allow much better use of the jet-pack. The sequel is clearly superior to me.
I also have to say I love Xmen 2: Clone Wars. That game is an amazing adaptation of the xmen comic book to the Genesis.
Mortal Kombat II. What a butcher job. colors washed out beyond belief, barely any sound bites, missing animation frames, but hey, at least the genesis got the Fergality, right?
What about Triple Trouble or Chaos? Not SMS (unfortunately), but still 8-bit. At least Chaos got a fairly decent hack to the SMS, not sure about TT.Quote:

The sonic drift games shouldn't have existed... Why no MD (or MCD) Sonic Kart game, but not 1, but 2 mediocre ones on the GG...
Sparkster on the SNES or Genesis? The former is almost always sited as better, though both are different games. (not ports)Quote:

True... I would have liked one on MD or (MCD)Quote:

I didn't Mind MK1 on the Genesis though. Sure It's not very good, but it's far more playable than the SNES port. MKII on the other hand just feels like a letdown.
Except maybe if they ended up doing like Core did with BC Racers... No multiplayer. (or proper at leas, except the 3DO and 32x versions with split screen, but other problems)Quote:

Hmm it seems like Sparkster is a bit pricey now too (more so for SNES), odd, I thought I noticed the Genesis version at least was pretty cheap a few months ago. (Rocket Knight is still pretty cheap though)Quote:

I used to think like that too, but then i started learning how to convert images to the Genesis color limits,Quote:

thats why i got a newfound respect for how they ported MKII, sure its missing like 99% of the voices and sfx,
but color wise they did a great job, they could have gone the way of their MK1 port, or even the way another company later did MK3,
but instead they went out of their way to make this stuff look clean.
MK1 and MK3 look very dithered, MKII port does not.
You should try the romhack "Mortal Kombat II Unlimited" it adds back all the cut voices and effects,
it also adds all the MK1 stages and makes the bosses and secret characters playable.
And the new version he's working on will reinstate all the cut intro/bio/ending pictures as well.
