So is this thing spewing time back into the universe?

Precisely - that's why we're experiencing these curious time phenomena on board.

I see a trend emerging. Sadly, I had to facilitate.

I had found myself having a bit of a tough choice with this one, since there are several games that were good to choose. I had picked Winds of Thunder for this list. It really much is a fantastic shooting game with a rocking soundtrack to boot. I remember first seeing gameplay footage of it in its that it had reminded me of Magical Chase, and had thought SuperPCEngineGrafx liked death metal because of this game (all the while commenting on those two aspects on it, too). I am dying to try it out on Virtual Console soon (in about a week, I hope, I will finally get a Wii Points card).

A couple of other good choices would be Bomberman '94 and Street Fighter II Champion Edition. Castlevania: Dracula X - Rondo of Blood looks to be of a phenomenal game for the PC Engine, but I do not have enough interest in the game itself or in the series to determine to like it or not.

I wondered, too, what the FAN edition of Magical Chase was like (but in more terms of being like the US version with its graphical overhaul). WOW...The box art for the Game Boy Color version of the game is absolutely amazing...Then again, how could it be expected to be anything less since this had come from the great year of 2000?
