@@SunChipss Yes. But to screw over viewers who got him to where he is.. that’s just straight up screwed up. His ego went to him. Instead of screwing over people he should’ve made a video to all his loyal viewers telling them he no longer wanted to do CGR. I have no issue with him wanting to pursue a new path, I would support any one in that pursuit. But it’s called respect. People are mad and dislike him now because he had no respect for the ones who made him what he is. No viewers and he’d have not what he does now. It’s all about respect, that’s it.

Now I am foaming at the mouth for a RENOVATION collection (Gaiares, Arrow Flash, Whip Rush, Elemental Master, etc.) -- and a THUNDERFORCE collection!!! :) P.S. The only downside is that all retailers are totally sold out of this Toaplan collection now. I'd like to see companies like Limited Run and Retro-Bit do TWO print runs on select titles. The initial pre-order print-run, and then a final print run several weeks after the first run is released. The first print run always generates buzz upon release; and I have no doubt these companies could make a lot more money with a second print run.

MJR has a review copy we sent him so what you see here is what you will get if you got one! If you ordered it or the individual games, we apologize for the delays. There have been some issues at shipping ports due to the current pandemic but the latest is that they should be arriving in early March (maybe sooner) to those who ordered.

I feel like calling these a "reproduction" might not be the best word choice, because that is usually reserved for physical games that were produced without the license from the rights holder, I would classify these more as reprints.

Really hard towards the end, but oh so cool! Looking forward to your next show!

I remember playing Astrosmash back in 2012. My first video game I ever played as a kid in 85. It still held up as a solid 7.5 after all those years. I just wonder if it holds up today. I'm high, old, and tired. Just curious if some of my "greats" still hold up to todays standards ... lol
