Sold. I know it's not the original one but I love the first one on Xbox Live and I think they'll do a good job on this.

About time. A straight port would have been fine by me, so a remake I guess is better. As long as they don't screw it up.

I love this fucking game, but the graphics leave a little to be desired. I would have been fine with a straight up port with even snazzier 2D graphics if possible.

I can hear that Snes wild-west level music with the "hey!" in the soundtrack right now in my mind!

Going to wait a bit on the visuals and see how they shape up, it's hard to replace that similar-to-cartoon-show style for nostalgia.

I'm interested in this Turtles game but I agree 100% on the X-men game. I beat the Turtles games and Simpsons games in the arcade, but I always wanted a chance to beat the X-men game.

I always wished for an ALIENS arcade game port but it never happened. I miss that game so much, it was awesome.

I beat the x-men game but I don't really remember a thing about the game outside of the first level. And that I think Magneto was the last boss. A collection disc with the two turtles games, the x-men game, and the simpsons would get an instant buy from me.

The X-Men game is a ton of fun. I played through it on MAME a while back since I could never beat it in arcade. It's hard. One of the levels is a jungle, then you go to outer space.

Oooo that's another one I forgot, that would have to go on the collection too. IIRC it wasn't bad, but it wasn't as cool as the others. It was also available on the Sega Genesis, possibly the SNES too.

It was okay.

Simpsons, X-Men, TMNT 1+2, and Aliens vs Predator are the class of Arcade beat em ups, but Cadillacs and Dinosaurs was a ton of fun too.

I remember as a kid thinking it was super cool to be able to throw bad guys at the screen. I don't know why I thought it was so cool, but it sure impressed young Smues.

Captain America/Avengers on SNES doesn't exist!!

It's an awful, awful port. The Genesis one is pretty good, though.

It must be the Genesis version I'm remembering, because I remember playing a console version that didn't suck.

Yeah, you're definitely thinking of the Genesis version. That was all kinds of fun, especially with a friend.
