Most Likely to Participate:
Star Wars Knights Of The Old Republic - Yes. I also own the sequel. Probably not enough time for both (60 hours total)
Oddworld - I have them all, sans-tasty. If I play more, it'll seep into the following month (43 hours)
Puyo Puyo - I can Mean Bean with the rest of 'em thanks to the Sonic Genesis collection.
Call Of Duty & Medal Of Honor - I own several entries in each I have yet to finish. Will not get to all of them. I don't feel like replaying the originals, as I played them multiple times over when they were new.
Daytona USA - Any excuse to play these is good. Maybe I can unlock the horse.
Metal Slug - Yes, I own the Anthology and 7. I'll try to finish them all. To counteract credit spamming, maybe I'll put real money in a jar.
Street Fighter III - I might dabble, I'm terrible at it and will be playing solo.
Ghosts N Golbins & Alone In The Dark - I'll try Ghosts N Goblins, I own a couple, but I'm awful. I own New Nightmare and the 2008 reboot for Alone in the Dark, I'll give them a full shot (I'm aware the reboot is awful)

Might Participate:
Pitfall - Don't own any, would have to emulate.
R-Type - I only own Final, would have to emulate others.
Solomon's Key - Don't own any, would have to emulate.

Non-Participating:
Star Control II - Don't have access to any copies. Very low desire. Might replace with No Man's Sky >_>

I have my own list of games I'm trying to get through, as well, but if I can make everything work I will.

Ha! Put quarters in a jar. That is a great idea.

It's an Activision game. Check out the Activision Anthology. 8)

First time I beat Ghosts n Goblins it took me four hours.

It's on the Activision Anthology which you can get for PS2, PC and Game Boy Advance, I think. Comes with Pitfall 2 as well and a whole host of other classic 2600 games. It's how I intend to play it anyway. Should have read the next page before jumping in to comment. What a mook.

I like this list and will try to get involved in every month. Going to get one of the Puyo Puyo games for the Saturn and I'm still undecided on getting the Tecmo Collection on Xbox or the NES/Famicom version of Solomon's Key. Otherwise I'm good to go. Looking forward to Pitfall!, Oddworld and the FPS month the mostest.

Hooray it's done, good job all.

Star Wars Knights Of The Old Republic - Have on GOG.
Pitfall - Have on Activision Anthology, PC & GBA.
Mar - Oddworld - GOG has it. Looks cheap but still undecided.
Apr - R-Type - Personal best score stands at 317,500. I've got it on my tablet and I'll also probably check out the much more accessible R-Type LEO.
May - Puyo Puyo - Have the Mean Bean Machine and a good chance to check out the Fever series by Sonic Team.
Jun - Call Of Duty & Medal Of Honor - Played through many of them. I'll look for COD 3, and replay COD 2 on Gamecube. MOH-possibly play AA again?
Jul - Daytona USA - Dreamcast.
Aug - Metal Slug - Through MAME and also Metal Slug Advance.
Sep - Street Fighter III - Dreamcast. Glad it's later in the year as I can find them at a good price.
Oct - Ghosts N Golbins & Alone In The Dark - Both? OK! That will be NES & GOG.
Nov - Solomon's Key - Just got my NES copy. You all will love it!
Dec - Star Control II - Ur-quan Masters.
