My TG-16 finds for September along with some quick thoughts:
Darkwing Duck - this particular copy kept coming up very frequently as a BIN auction with prices that kept dropping, but no one ever picked it up. It finally dropped to a price that compared to recent PCFX for sale thread so I bought it. The game is a bit average, but it is another late release I am happy to own and play. It is not as bad as its reputation, certainly above Drop Off, I think.
Super Star Soldier - one of the first threads I started as a single digit new member was an inquiry into why this had gotten to be such an expensive title in just a few years since I was first building my TG-16 collection. I now know it is expensive because it is very, very good (as good as Soldier Blade) and, well, older games on the whole have just gotten pricey. Anyhow, as a game it is one of the top domestic releases, right up there with Blazing Lazers. Great, great, great game.
Spriggan - one of my favorite shump developers is Compile. I grew up with the SMS Power Strike, as a collector I have found the domestic releases on the NES, SNES, GENESIS, SEGA CD, and the TG-16 (of course). The ones from Japan on CD are all on my radar, and Spriggan seems to be the most affordable to (re)start my small PCE-CD collection. I finished the game the first time I played it, and it was a very pleasant romp. What a game, classic 16-bit Compile here, very reminiscent of M.U.S.H.A. and Robo Aleste from the Sega systems. I want...more Compile!
Bomberman - I, sadly, indulged in an ebay BIN for this one. Sometimes it happens, but at least the game is worth the money I spent. I can't say anything about this that is not known, it is one of the best multi-player party games on the system and a true landmark title.
My finds per month are only going to get smaller as my US TG-16 HuCard list is down to only a handful I think I can find for reasonable prices: BoxyBoy, Champions Forever Boxing, Yo Bro, Ghost Manor, Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu and Bomberman '93 (leaving out the other 1993 games Tonma, Chase, & Bonk 3). At this point I am also out of donor cases, so I'll be starting to cut up old music CD trays to make things work.
One of my next month's TG-16 finds is in the mail; more exciting stuff soon!
