I picked up the pce version awhile back and it's pretty cool.  I certainly don't think it's a $125 game, though.  It has lots of big sprites and cool graphical effects, and is challenging. And the end stage screens show a bikini-clad fairy. :mrgreen:

I don't like that you can hold a button for a charged shot.  That takes away the keeping the turbo on, which makes playing games like this a lot more enjoyable.  Personal preference, but I am not a big fan of Cotton.

So...is there any US game that isn't stupidly overpriced now, or have you people completely ruined that scene?

It's f*cked up that most of my MVS games are cheaper than Cotton for Turbografx. That's just...wrong.

Not really. Its getting harder and harder to find decent priced turbo games these days. Hell, if even half the games that people wanted were priced like Populous:

Good luck trust me you saved some money getting the pce version instead of the over priced u.s one.

For every pricey Cotton, there are five cheap games like Dungeon Explorer, Bonk's Adventure, Klax, Blazing Lasers, and Tiger Road.

There are US Titles that are cheaper than the pce counterpart too.  Bloody Wolf, Parasol Stars, and Ninja Spirit come to mind.  All superb games.

Yeah, that's exactly why I don't have Ninja Spirit. I only buy JP releases and the JP is twice as expensive in this case. I'll have it eventually. I do have it on VC.

The (J) version is more expensive for Ninja Spirit?  I wonder why that is?

Surprisingly, I got mine for $40 through amazon (it was the same guy who sold me U.S Cadash for $20), mind you it was the Japanese version but still a good deal. So don't count out amazon when you are searching!
