Games that deserve to be on HG101

I like those suggestions, especially Bonk. I just want a Bonk article for Air Zonk alone. ;D

An article on Rastan sounds like a plan... or perhaps Waku Waku 7.

COTTON YES.

Some dude e-mailed me a few weeks ago with like a ton of excellent suggestions, and Cotton was one of them. I actually have Cotton Boomerang and Rainbow Cotton floating in the mail system somewhere, just need to grab Cotton 2 and I think I'm set. I know they're emulated on MAME and the Saturn emulator, but while they're good for screenshots, they run too slowly to actually play.

Same guy suggested the "wacky Sunsoft fighters" trilogy - Galaxy Fight, Waku Waku 7 and Astra Superstars. Waku Waku 7 rules, but I've never played Galaxy Fight and Astra Superstars is stupidly expensive on eBay (and not emulated right either.)

I have Jumping Flash 1 and 2 and I think the ISO for the third game around here somewhere. Sucks the series never went anywhere - other than those dumb dungeon levels, it's a really fun game.

Bonk is one of those games, like Adventure Island, I never got around to doing because I still need to order the PS2 remakes of them. I heard they were decent though.

After I get Startropics up, I think I'm gonna do quickies for Cyber Lip and Hagane. I started one for Nectaris a little awhile ago but dropped if off temporarily. I also started one for the Goonies games.

I have a whole big "to do" list, I'll see about posting it later and maybe stickying it.

We definitely need a cute-em-up article in Cotton, even though Parodius might technically qualify as one. I am reminded of Magical Chase for the TG16, which I can best describe as the well-nourished child of Cotton and Ordyne. And for yet another CEU with witches and/or wizards on broomsticks, try Mystic Riders by Irem. Maybe you can somehow link all of those games in the same article?

I think that FPS games are a bit underrepresented on this board, even if Japan does frown on them. But for pure fun, I think an article on Blood and Blood II would be in order. Haven't played the second one, but the first one is a literal blast.

Better idea...Kurt I could write an article on FIST!!!

Oh, snap! Forgot one that Mr. Kurt likes a lot: System Shock. Never played it (I would like to, but I probably never will with XP here ), but I've heard nothing but innovative goodness of it. Although, I don't think he's as fond of SS2, but someone else can write about that.

Hah, a Cyber Lip article? That would be great. That game is disturbingly cool in so many ways.

I'll throw out a few random suggestions:

Dragon Spirit/Saber
Druaga
SNK NES games
Momotarou
Hydlide (you know you want to, hehe)
Cameltry
Fire Emblem
Marvelous
Wonder Project J
Tail Concerto (well... it would make me happy :) )
Custom Robo
King's Field (and you could throw Shadow Tower in there)

The Kururin series, two games on the GBA, one on the Gamecube. Avoid the obstacle games

Or the Wetrix series. It's Tetris, with water, and, uh... Most people should have played it, the Nintendo 64 version was somewhat popular.
