| 20525 | Virtual Console Thursdays | Week of 5/7/2015<br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Wii U Virtual Console<br><br></span>Mega Man and Bass (GBA)<br>$7.99<br><img src="http://ocremix.org/files/images/games/gba/7/mega-man-and-bass-gba-cover-front-28011.jpg"><br><br>Metal Marines (SNES)<br>$7.99<br><img src="http://img.gamefaqs.net/box/4/2/1/27421_front.jpg"><br><br><br>This week marks the return of Mega May. Yes, all this month, we're going to be seeing some more Mega Man titles released, and this time around, it's all GBA titles being released for the Wii U Virtual Console. Mega Man and Bass is a pretty good one to start off with. Out of all the Mega Man games I played, this one is indeed the hardest one out of all of them. Which is interesting considering the game is a remake of a Japanese only SNES game that was designed to be an alternative to those who do not own Mega Man 8... or even a Playstation or Sega Saturn.<br><br>While Mega Man and Bass wasn't a bad game, the GBA version did have it's own set of problems. Specifically, the screen crunch, which was very common for GBA remakes released at the time. The English version had it's own set of problems, such as the translation. Some of the robot masters would make awful pop culture references as a way of appealing to the modern audience. <br><br>Also, on a sidenote that's not related to the Virtual Console, but is still Mega Man related, The Misadventures of Tron Bonne has been released on the Playstation Store as part of PSone Classics. While it's still not Mega Man Legends, it is a good first step to seeing the two games get released on the Playstation Store. It still wouldn't make up for the cancellation of Mega Man Legends 3, with CRAPCOM being too greedy and not caring about the fans.<br><br>As for Metal Marines... I don't have too much to say about that. But it seems that despite Natume's statement that Nintendo may be shifting away from SNES titles, this feels like a response to what they said about that. But I guess time we'll tell if we really do stop seeing SNES titles on the Wii U Virtual Console for good. Though, what's interesting about this title is that even though it came out first in Europe, it still has not been released on their Virtual Console service. Not for the Wii or the Wii U.<br> | blueluigi | May 08, 2015 |  |

If you needed information on something it was far more laborious a task than it would ever be today. You had book stores, libraries, the encyclopedia, and teachers/loved ones. That was it.<br><br>I do think that we were more content with "not knowing" then as well. It was just a fact of life that some things were going to be difficult to find out, and we were content to not bother if it were something not of the utmost importance. <br> | Vaporman87 | May 08, 2015 | |

He was viciously beaten the day before filming started to make him more docile. Near the end of filming the sequel "Any Which Way You Can," the orangutan was caught stealing doughnuts on the set, brought back to the training facility and beaten for 20 minutes with a 3 1/2 -foot ax handle. He died soon after of a cerebral hemorrhage." </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">No one on the set knew though..</span></div> </i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote>That's disgusting and stupid.

I simply can't imagine a show like Grizzly Adams ever using real bears in the scene with actors.<br> | Vaporman87 | May 08, 2015 | |
