This is an amazing cart. I came here after I heard about your video on the Evercade Effect Saturday Morning cast. I completely missed this vid.

Good reviews, Crow. I really like Bone Marrow. Fun Game. Thanks for the video.

Great video Crow! I was interested in how much the noticeable delay between levels loading on Donut Dodo bothered you, but I guess it didn't. I play this on Nintendo Switch and have been put off picking this collection up based on how much this infuriates Ed and I know it would infuriate me too :-) Hopefully Blaze get round to fixing this but I guess they've got enough on their plate at the moment with their VS-R and recent cart delays. Keep up the awesome work!

Yes Chew, Chew Mimic was definately my favorite game of the month! Tough sell for me since I have 2 games in Indy 1 and got my fill of the other game of the months. The other standouts Donut Dodo and Bone Marrow can be gotten for under $5 on other platforms and have some advantages to boot. Great for a starting collector. Big2small and Chew, chew just not enough for me.

I largely agree with your rankings, but maybe bone marrow would be a little lower.

[nathanfoster]

I still can't get over Team 17 being at the bottom of the list

Excellent rundown of the cart! I think your method works well as a visual representation of your opinion.

Besides, I’d take Gaelco and Renovation over the Castlevania and Contra collections. Finding new favourites in the deep end is more exciting!

[MinistorumPreacher]

Looks like value for money and i fully support developers that do games like this instead of trying to pump out a fortnight clone with estores.

Nice review, but man... my Evercade cartridge rankings could not possibly be more different than you, aside from having Data East and Jaleco Arcade near the top.

I have no idea how you give such a mediocre ranking to a Sunsoft cartridge that has Mr Gimmick, Blaster Master, and Journey to Silius (all of which are great imo), i think the Renovation cartridge is awesome, Jaleco Collection 1 is worth it just for Toyally Rad alone imo (although i may be the only one who thinks that lol), i've spent a stupid amount of time playing XenoCrisis, etc etc.

Just goes to show why you shouldn't put TOO much weight on reviews, i suppose; everyone has different tastes, and the odds of a given reviewer having the exact same taste as you are slim to none.
