So if people accept that, what, in their opinions, is the best system at it?

Genesis>Snes when it comes to parallax and screen resolution

I'll let the programmers correct me if I'm wrong

You've been corrected. It's the snes. It can do all the parallax of the Genesis and more. It has more BG layers than the Genesis.

What're you going to do when you run out of girly disc pics?

Start playing Games Express games in an emulator?


Yes, I think that will be my only choice.

Oh, and the two ladies from MotoRoader.

I actually like reviews of such less well known games.  Reviews of stuff like Dracula X, Sapphire, Gate of Thunder, etc. are fun to read too, but who here hasn't already played the hell out of 'em themselves?
I agree with you on this, at least -- I'd definitely rather review a game which is both interesting and not super-popular, than some very popular classic I also like but everyone interested probably knows about already.  Those games don't really need the attention, but something lesser-known often does deserve it!

Super A'Can was released well into the 32-bit generation.

Yep, agreed. I had never heard of Dragon Egg before this review. So, despite all the...what-have-you...surrounding this review and thread, I appreciate it for bringing this game to my attention. I popped in the Everdrive and gave it a go the other day. It's definitely not a "great" game, but I liked the idea and the mechanics behind it. I also liked how it mixed the traditional fantasy elements with "tech" themes.
Games I Need: Bonk 3 (HuCard), Legend of Hero Tonma, Magical Chase, Soldier Blade, Super Air Zonk.

Got one to sell? PM me!
