I've had a few more issues with some sprites not showing up in games over the last few days. Luckily I've got Bickman2k on the job and he's been helping me working through it. I think were getting close to figuring it out.

I didnt however manage to find a few games to fill the void until that gets done. Started off with some Bonk's Adventure. I've beaten this game on my TG16 a while back, but this was my first try on the NES. The controls felt a little looser than I would have liked, but not game breakingly bad. I managed to limp my way through the entire thing on my first try. I was a little worried I wasnt going to make it at the start, but after figuring out a couple of the bonus games I was able to rack up a safe amount of extra men.

I had a few games out while I was trying to decide what was next and my son wanted to see Panic Restaurant so we gave it a go. As far as time spent playing compared to money spent this has to be the worst of the expensive NES games. I finished it in just over 30 minutes with very little trouble. My son played it for a bit afterwards though too and I think he is a fan, just because most of the enemies and weapons are funny to him.

Thought I may as well cross another rarity off the list and popped in some Bubble Bobble 2. Its a decent game, but I feel the first one is significantly better. I was getting low on lives as I neared the end of the game and lucked out with an item (some kind of star wand) that warped me to the second last boss fight. Because of that I was able to finish the game with no continues!

Is the Bonk's Adventure pic screwed up for everybody or just me? It looks crazy for some reason.
 
Thought I posted on this earlier? Yeah, it just shows up as a black image for me.
 
just a big black box. Yeah.
 
Thanks, I'll try and get that fixed next time I sit down on my computer.
 
...and, fixed.
 
Now here are some videos I'll make sure to check out since it will probably be a bit before I shell out for these. I ran across these helpful hints about putting together Let's Play videos, thought you might be interested before your big debut: http://www.1up.com/do/my1Up?publicUserId=6193438
 
@Crabmaster2000:

Ouch! My Wallet

Which is what I say every time you blog about an "Unloved" game I'm interested in.

And now the shoe's on the other foot.

It's about time you knew my pain... ;p

 
@Duke - Thanks for the link. I'll for sure check it out. Also I got all 3 of the above game's videos up now so check them out whenever you want!

@Zagnorch - I'm pretty sure only about 3 of my nearly 30 "Unloved" games have been above $15 to grab. Cubivore, Fire 'n Ice, and Norse by Norsewest. All the rest can be found for very reasonable prices.
 
@Duke - I just watched the video you linked to. Some funny stuff on there! Batman, Zelda and No More Heroes parts were hilarious.

I'm afraid mine will end up something like the bomberman one though. Partly because I havnt played through some of the games before. I'm not exactly prepping for the videos like on a Let's Play. Also I'm worried I'll start concentrating on the game and just simply forget to comment on stuff.
 
I'm sure it will be good, and don't worry about talking just to talk.
