Surprised that we actually got Harvest Moon.  After it appeared in the Japanese service back in March and not on our one? I thought that it was probably locked in Natsume/Marvellous licensing hell.

Glad to see that they worked it out :)

I thought they advertised we would be getting this, but we weren't getting the N64 one? (which is what I really wanted), I have fond memories of playing this as my first Harvest Moon, but really want to give the N64 version a spin. Maybe in the future...

 

Now give us Plok naaaow.

First time that the SNES version of Kirby's Star Stacker has been released outside of Japan...

... it's also the only JPN-only Kirby game out there, meaning that every single Kirby game has now had an international release! (even if this one remains unlocalised).  Neat!

It's great to see more previously Japan only releases being brought to a wider audience.

Also, a title like Quest for Camelot is perfect for the service as it's a title which people might not have played, and this way it doesn't cost much to try it out. :peace:

(I just checked, a boxed copy on the Game Boy is around £15 currently, so not a very costly game but the NSO price is easily justified with these games, it would seem)

And by that I assume you mean it doesn't feature angry Kirby?

Hell yeah!!! So glad that we're now seeing Rare's pre-N64 catalogue get added to the NSO service :D

Battletoads, Wizards & Warriors and Cobra Triangle are just a matter of time now...

Can't wait to see if my thumbs still remember a few combos. Will have to get the instruction book out for a refresher.

Playing Wrecking Crew 98 for the first time and...

it kicks arse! :D

Can't say that I thought that Action Puzzle Battle Game would've been my first thought for how a sequel to Wrecking Crew would be made, but I'm glad they took this approach.  It's like they took Panel De Pon/Puzzle League, Yoshi's Cookie & Puyo Puyo and chucked them into a blender.  It's great! Any fan of action puzzle games should get a real kick out of this one! Defo gotta get some online multiplayer action going here!

BTW, there's an unofficial fan translation that'll probably help with figuring out how to play the game.  There's a useful video here of said translation that I've timestamped to show a playthrough of the How To Play screen to show you... well... how to play!
