Games Acquired 2022
Re: Games Acquired 2022
I got Mad Stalker from Strictly Limited Games. I have a few other Genesis carts from them and they put out a quality product. Even though they're based in Europe, they cater to an American market as well. Although if you ever preorder something from them, you'll probably wait a long time, like with Limited Run. I know Strictly Limited also released a European Mega Drive version although IDK if it has any difference aside from the package design. I think Mad Stalker was first put out by Columbus Circle on MD in Japan, but I have a couple of their other games and they weren't beveled, so I'm hesitant to pick up any more CC games.
I haven't played much of the game yet, but it seems pretty cool! I like beat 'em ups and robots and it's got both those things along with some very cool music!
I think it's amazing that modern companies are licensing unreleased Genesis games to put out official releases on quality carts that can play on real hardware! It would be better if Sega would actually let them use the "Sega Genesis" trademark, but I feel like that kind of thing could be possible in the future.

Re: Games Acquired 2022
June update:
June:
Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd PS3
Project DIVA PS3 Mini Arcade controller
Toy Commander Dreamcast
Resonance of Fate PS3
Cotton Guardian Force Saturn Tribute Switch
Cotton Fantasy: Superlative Night Dreams Switch
GleyLancer Switch eShop
Toem Switch eShop
A few game purchases this month - another Dreamcast title and a couple of PS3 games. I love the Project DIVA games and I've always wanted to try with an arcade controller so I splashed out for the admittedly much cheaper mini version. Both Cotton games were ordered ages ago from Stirctly Limited or another similar company, I forget which. Gleylancer and Toem were purchases I made with leftover eshop credit.

Thank you for the information, Nemoide! Yeah, it was the Columbus Circle release that I had read about earlier. I recall reading a negative review of the cartridge release because of the bevel issue. I'm glad that another company has put it out, with a better quality cart. Might have to check that out sometime, along with a few of the other Strictly Limited releases I've been eyeing for a while.

2022 Pick-ups:
Sunset Riders (SNES)
Well, I only picked up one game throughout the month of June, but it's one I've wanted for a while, so I'm glad I came across it in good shape! I had played Sunset Riders through an emulator years ago and really enjoyed it. Also, my buddy has a MAME arcade setup in his basement, and we played it on there last summer. But it's great to be able to now play it on my SNES and CRT setup!

Finally got a complete edition of Suikoden Card Stories!
(This was acquired a few months ago, thought I'd share it here)

Totally agree. It's too bad the Genesis port was subpar, but I recently found out there's a fan remake of the Genesis port in the works. I saw some gameplay footage of the first level, and the color palette look much better. Something I'll be keeping tabs on.

Oh wow, wasn't familiar with this game in the series! Nice pick-up, JungleHeart.

Re: Games Acquired 2022
So my "game collecting" days are drawing to a close. Mainly due to financial/space/interest reasons. The usual stuff, I suppose. Still playing retro games. Not purging my collection or anything, just slowing down.
Anyway, the Fami games I've acquired this year.

Oh man! The Quest of Ki!
The Game Center CX episodes for that game are some of my favorite.
How are your sourcing you Famicom games? Just ebay?
