Streets of Rage II is pretty much the best game on the Mega Drive. Great graphics, one of the best soundtracks of all time and arguably the best gameplay in a 2D beat ’em up.

3 x HES games for NES – Sidewinder, Duck Maze and Arctic Adventure – Soft plastic case versions. No manuals, though.
Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Limited Editions (PlayStation 2)
NES game bundle with Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse – Seller doesn’t specify which games have manuals, so ask first.
NES game bundle with Ufouria, Duck Maze, Arctic Adventure – Again, seller hasnt said which ones have manuals. HES games are the cardboard versions.

Video Game Ad of the Day: Bubsy 3D
– July 26, 2014
Widely held to be one of the worst games of the fifth generation era, Bubsy 3D is a shining example of just how wrong things could go during early 3D game development. The developer, Eidetic, did eventually learn how to make good games in 3D – they went on to develop the Syphon Filter series and became a first party Sony Computer Entertainment developer known as Bend Studio.

Video Game Ad of the Day: Glover
– July 11, 2014
Glover is a somehwat divisive platformer from the fifth generation era. Some people found it to be quite charming, others hold it up as a shining example of the deluge of middling mascot platformers which largely met their demise in the sixth generation era.

Updates to resume
– July 11, 2014
The site’s hiatus will end effective immediately. Things may change a little, but we’ll aim to deliver content worth reading and watching again – even if it takes an age to produce.
Thank you for your patience.

In hibernation
– May 3, 2014
I have been struggling to produce meaningful content on Retro Gaming Australia for about two years. The demands on my time, professionally and personally, have increased over the years, and time spent working on the site takes away from things that have a higher priority.
Over the last month, I undertook an experiment to see if I could cope with not updating the site, and walking away for a while. The experiment was a success.
The site and its projects will effectively go into hibernation for a while. We will also not be appearing at PAX this year.
