We didn't get many Goemon games in the US, but this first one when I first played it years ago, felt different than anything else I played at the time. I didn't know that the Famicom, already had 4 games for this series, 2 action games, 2 RPG's, and that the arcade game, Mr Goemon, started it all. With time, I have picked up many Goemon titles, 8 in all. The 2 Famicom action games, the first Game Boy game, the 4 SFC games, and the first PS1 game.
