Thing is, MM is one of those titles that may just wind up falling in your lap in a raffle or sweet deal found on these forums.  It's a title that you should be able to snag for around $10, so it's not like it'll cost you an arm and a leg to own a hard copy.

Now that you've played the original a TON of times, you should move onto Neo Military Madness!!!

One thing about Military Madness is that I find it is uniquely well-suited to be played on my phone.  I have an hour train ride back and forth to work.  During that time I've played alot, ALOT, of MM using an emulator app.  The turn-based style allows it to be very playable on a phone touchscreen, as opposed to virtually any other TG16/PCE game I can think of, or have tried on my phone, which really require tactile buttons for it to be enjoyable. 

Now I guess there is something you can buy for your phone's touchscreen, like a rubber d-pad that sticks on the screen, or something similar to a "condom" with the buttons molded into it, that you wrap around the entire phone somehow.  I haven't really looked into these at all, but really they don't sound that appealing to me either.

But as far as Military Madness goes, in all honesty that is one game I play almost exclusively on my phone. 

Actually, one of my dreams is that an exact conversion of Military Madness would emerge as an app that you could play against others online.  Sorta like this game:

O.K. that's a nice setup.  If there was a way I could get away with that at work, I would be all over it.

I was just asking Null about this controller the other day. I've been thinking about getting one just for convenience. Sadly, i don't have my Express with me wherever i go, but of course my damn phone is always in my front right pocket.

It's $30 which seems a bit high, but Null claims it is worth it. Not sure how serious you were about wanting it, but i figured just in case.
