- Gunstar Heroes, which is basically the main game I wanted, is still a lot of fun. It's a very well designed game. Lots of creative bosses, great music, very clever weapon system. I think I've slipped quite a lot, though. I never beat it in Master Mode before, but back in the day I didn't have TOO much trouble with Normal Mode. I've made several attempts to beat Normal Mode today and yesterday, and died by the end of the game. ;_;

- Toejam and Earl is pretty much as average as I remember. It's not bad, but it's just random wandering around, without too much actual gameplay.

- Alien Storm, which I'd never played before, seems decent. I haven't played it much, but it's basically like Streets of Rage, but with worse graphics, and better gameplay.

- Alien Soldier, which is a game I've been really looking forward to playing (I wanted to play this as far back as 1996, but due to lack of money and the release of the Saturn, never got around to), came as a bit of a surprise. I knew it was a lot like Gunstar Heroes (which is very good), but I'm not sure what to make of it. It's much, much harder. I've spent maybe 30 minutes on it, and can't beat the first boss / level. The different moves that the main character can do seem quite complex. I'm not saying it's bad, infact it might be great, but the difficulty comes on a little, uh, strong, from early on. Not sure about this game.

- The Revenge of Shinobi, which I'm not sure if I've played before, seems nice, with interesting combat and platforming.

Also, I hate all the bullshit they were posting on the board for this (Switch version). Some people were going on about how bad the input delay is, how it makes stuff unplayable, blah blah blah, but from what I've played, it's minimal, basically the same as the original games. Other things, like graphics and sound seem fine, too.

Good times. Especially since I can't really play some of the old games on the Genesis / Mega Drive anymore, and don't have them ported to any other console.
