    The TG-16 version of R-type is supposedly excellent. Pity we have to play with the gay robots in Probotector instead of the macho gay guys of Contra 3.

    no sign of Super Probotector (but then, I didn't look past the first page of new releases...)
    and 800 points for R-Type... they're starting to take the piss methinks
    Super Castlevania IV seems extremely dated after the 2 DS versions:(

    feck all else worth getting imo (apart from maybe mario bros...)

    Street Fighter II: World Warrior came out with Super Mario Brothers in the States and Japan I think. It was their big Xmas Announcement.

    SFII:WW is not great apparently, it was SFII: Turbo Edition which is the version I presume we all remember and love and apprently WW is very slow compared to TE.

    No sign of us getting any of them here yet - still cant wait for Super Mario Kart...

    Dont understand why there is different release dates for each region though? And why bother with the different verions(eg we will only ever get the PAL versions as there was slight differences between NTSC and PAL versions in some games.)

    I remember all the versions of snes SF2 :) Turbo Editon was a later release. World warrior did come out first with its 8 characters only.

    Yes it was a lot slower.

    Plus the PAL version has huge borders compared to the NTSC version making it 17.5% slower than an already slow version.

    Seriously whilst piss poor conversions was semi acceptable back in the day, in 2007 its a feckin joke. Nintendo need a kick in the balls.

    i wish they would give us the option of the 60Hz NTSC roms. It's not hurting the sales of Gears of War for MS when it's 60Hz only. I wouldn't touch SF2 if it's the PAL rom we get.
    Super Castlevania IV seems extremely dated after the 2 DS versions

    It's still an excellent game with superb music and atmosphere. I miss the old linear 2D castlevanias despite how good the new ones are. Super Castlevania is the second best Castlevania of it's type. Lets hope they release Rondo of Blood for the TG-16. By far the best in the series other than Symphony of the Night. Pity that it's unlikely due to it only being released in japan.
