Need some help on deciding wether or not to jump on this deal...

I haven't heard of Dragon's curse, it sounds pretty cool. Though I've tried Bonk a few times (in an emulator), and did not like it. I think I didn't give it fair try, though. What pc engine platormers are worth emporting? If I do import a pc engine, it will not need any modifications playing JAP games, correct (I assume because CAN and JAP are NTSC)?

Dragon's Curse is the 4th game in the Wonderboy series.

A "sub-par" version was also released on the SEGA Master System as "Wonderboy III: The Dragon's Trap." (Yeah, that's a "III" and not a "IV." I guess since the SMS didn't get a port of the REAL Wonderboy III, Monster Lair, they decided to make things confusing on us.)

I say "sub-par" because the SMS version has naturally inferior graphics, and seems to run at only 30 frames per second.

Why does no one like JJ and Jeff?

Because it's a poor game?

Brining JJ & Crap over could have precluded us from getting a GOOD game

If you want  good  platformers (besides the already mentioned gem that is Dragon's Curse)... try:

Son Son II (a MUST own)
GENJI TSUSHIN AGEDAMA (a personal fave)
BLUE BLINK (aka AOI BLINK)
HORROR STORY
HANY ON THE ROAD
MAKAI PRINCE DORABOCCHAN  (a kid Dracula game)


...and while easy games
DRAGON EGG
KAISOU CHŌJIN SCHBIBIN MAN 3.

Lots like JJ and Jeff, well more it's Kato & Ken the uncensored PC Engine original.
It got voted best game of 1989 on this forum.
