Drill Dozer is a pretty inexpensive game, that price is stupid. Everyone with a GBA should have it.

Over at TNL for a while we kept grabbing clearance copies at Walmart or wherever for like $7 and shipping them to other members for free, because EVERYONE should have Drill Dozer.

Holy crap that Super Contra arcade poster/flyer is awesome! If I had saw that before I would have purposely made Dave mention that somehow.

Thunduur Bladers!!!! Thanks Joe for finally covering this excellent SEGA masterpiece (in the arcade anyway). You mirrored my thoughts on the arcade game word for word. It was my favorite arcade game growing up and it still is. I was understandably let down by the domestic home versions but I gleamed every last ounce of enjoyment out of them back in the 80s. The SMS version's cave environs were a test of reflexes to say the least. And I would even enjoy the build-up to each stage on the Genesis version. I beat both many times. Love this game more than it is healthy! :D

Oh yeah, Thunder Blade... am I the only one that thinks that the Genesis/PCE versions have awful music?

There is only one good home port of Thunder Blade, and that's the X68000 version.

Not going to lie - I was pumped to get my Thunderblade arcade machine, then horrified when i realized that I have no more nostalgia for the game :) It's a technical marvel for sure, but man it controls like dogshit. It went to a good home though - the guy I sold it to is doing a full resto on it.

I always thought I had a good handle on the arcade's controls. I could even land on the roofs of buildings during both overhead and behind-the-shoulder sections in the first stage. :)
