Default Recommend some games for me to download...

So far I've downloaded Zelda Ocarina of Time, Zelda for NES, Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, Sonic The Hedgehog 2, Streets of Rage, Zelda 2, Metroid, and Street Fighter 2 Turbo and I was wondering about games that you guys would recommend who's tired of the usual Sonic and Mario games etc.

I havn't purchased a TG16 game yet and I was wondering what's a good TG16 game for someone who's never had one back in the day?

I'm trying to avoid the N64 games for now because they take away so many points, so anything from the 500, 800 range is good.

I'm looking for something that'll keep me interested for a good long time, and has great replayability, I'm a little bit into the puzzle genre, so that'll work too.

Thanks for reading!

I bought Sonic The Hedgehog 3 today and I have 1600 points left...

I'm thinking about saving some for Monday's releases incase we get something good, so I won't go blowing it and find out that it was the case, so I'm gonna save the rest of my points.

It's very hard to do something like that, especially when there's a lotta titles you want to play, anyone else like this?

Yes. I'm usually the same *cof Super Metroid cof* though it's easier when we know what's coming out in the EU, e.g. this Friday and the 28th, so I can save 1000 of my 1600 points for Sin and Punishment

We have a recommendation thread...

Tired of Sonic, Mario? If you like Metroid, try Kid Icarus. You can't go wrong with Kid Icarus unless you hate very difficult games.

Well honestly i know you don't want n64 but paper mario is the best, and yoshi story has a lot of replayability, but I dont know if you would like that. I was thinking of getting Bonk myself it looks good.

For the Turbografx, I can recommend both Military Madness and Bomberman '93. Both very fun games, MM will keep you occupied - its deeper then you think it might be!

Sort of off topic, but make sure you save 1200 just in case. It'll almost certainly be more than 1000.
