  • Wow nice collection!
  • Take my $$$$
  • I already threw mine!!!
  • awessssome!
  • Too bad Nintendo owns the rights for Donkey Kong Country.
  • That is on WiiU VC.
  • And it is glorious too ;)
  • Seems Microsoft wants to show they know what rare is capable of.
  • I'd love to have a new Sega Collection. Phantasy Star, Shining Force & Landstalker.
  • Throw Shinobi into that mix and I would be interested.  I always preferred that to the Ninja Gaiden series.  
  • What else would you want that wasn't on the Ultimate Genesis collection?
  • Shenmue I & II, Jet Set Radio Future, Skies of Arcadia, All the Crazy Taxi games, All the Panzer Dragoon games, All Virtua Fighter Games All Sega Rally games, Daytona games... I could go on.
  • those weren't on the genesis
  • They weren't meant to be. I was merely pointing out that Sega released great games that weren't on the Genesis/Mega Drive. Still we're getting Shenmue 3 now, so I'm all good.
  • Ohhhh Shining Force... I went crazy for months with the first part, the second one was alright
  • Nintendo needs to play nice and release the rights to Goldeneye.
  • it's not owned by Nintendo anymore. I believe the license is owned by Activision(?) now.
  • It was on the 360
  • This is awesome! I never played Battletoads and other older games (before my time) and I can't wait to re-play games like Kameo and Viva Pinata!
  • Where's GOLDENEYE!!??
  • Nintendo wouldn't allow it.
  • Nintendo? Ea owns the rights now, I think. PD is better anyway. ... But anyone can shop United Artist for 007.
  • Its Activision that has the rights to the unfortunate remake
  • If this were Perfect Dark and Goldeneye I'd be all over this.
     
  • Nice collection for a great price.
  • Banjo and Kazooie!!!!!!!  
  • Im guessing no Donkey Kong, stupid Nintendo!
  • Yeah, how stupid of Nintendo for keeping their IP on their system. I'm guessing Sony's stupid for not sending Ratchet & Clank to the Xbox One with Susnet Overdriveas well, right?
  • Jet force Gemini is what I have missed
  • I need this. I missed out of VP 2 last generation, so I definitely want to play it. I also want to play Banjo-Tooie, after having just about beaten the first title on my sister's N64 (I'll probably finish that up to prep for this). Great job, Rare, though I'm undecided abotu that new IP right now. This really is awesome.
  • Cool I recently tweeted Rare about bringing back RC Pro Am and Cobra Triangle.  I hope Cobra Triangle makes the cut
  • I thought I was getting battletoads with shovel knight due to very misleading messages and cover art. Now I have buy something else?!
  • I am going to get this!!! I hope there is multiplayer for Perfect Dark!
