If this is like the PC version, you get the password at the end of
a world (when you kill a really big dude), not the end of a level.
There are 3 or 4 levels in each world, I think the shop is in the 3rd
area of each world, so you might be close to finding it (actually, you
can't miss the shops, so there is no finding them)

If the geni version is different from the PC then completly disregard
(though the screen shots looked the same)  I would suggest getting this
game, it is alot of fun.

  Clarence, I live in New Orleans and I go to school in Baton Rouge. The
Toy R Uses over here in N.O. and B.R. have a whole slew of Turbografx games
for $9.98. Some of the titles are: Legendary Axe II, Parasol Stars, Double
Dungeons, Klax, Alien Crush, Victory Run, Tricky Kick, Tiger Road, Takin'
it to the Hoop, Neutopia, and a few others that I can't remember. 
 
  I have already purchased Klax and Victory Run. Those games are pretty
good, Klax especially. What I would like to know is what games in there are
worth getting? I know that $10 a game is really cheap and that I should
really get them all, but which ones should I get first? 
  
  Clarence Din, aren't you the guy with the TG16 ratings list? Could you
E-Mail me the latest edition? Maybe after reading it, I can make up my mind
on some of these $10 games.

The system you are referring to is not a bigger GameBoy. It is a whole new syst

tter looking than GameBoys and it's tiltable.


As for other handheld news. There wasn't much. Atari was absent as usual. Teleg
ames was there but they didn't show much. Super Off Road, Soccer were the ones
I remember the most. Gameboy was barely there. TurboExpress, I didn't really lo
ok for. Lots of TurboDuo's though. Only Game Gear seemed to show off some reall
y neat new games. Holyfield boxing, Streets of Rage and some other Genesis port
s. More peripherals for GAme Gear. Add on battery packs, etc.

Sorry, because the moderator for news.newgroups.announce is currently
on vacation and I have limited access to USENET during winter break.
And I may not have any access to the Internet in another month or so.
I got a few encouraging responses when I first suggested the new newsgroup
but the responses died down really fast.  Since my USENET access
isn't very stable, I'd like someone else to take the reins of the
new newsgroup RFD and CFV process.  It ended up being a lot more
buried in red tape than I thought.  And I currently don't have the time
do dig through all the red tape.

I was thinking of purchasing one of those Quickshot joysticks for the
original Nintendo and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with
one.  The price seemed pretty darn low, and I was wondering if this might
be one of those "get what ya pay for" scenarios.

The one I was particularly eyeing had a big "ball-on-top" joystick with
normal and turbo fire buttons, screen slow down (how does this work?), and 
a controller select switch (is that used to plug both of the original 
Nintendo pads into?).  The price was $14.99.  Worth it?

I need it for that extra edge in Super C...I'm almost to level 7 and boy
does my thumb hurt!

This is termed a "1-UP loop".  It is extremely common in practically all
platform games.  Earn two lives, die volutarily, so that you can restart
the same level with +1 lives.  Repeat ad nauseum.  Some games have levels
where you can find seven 1-UPs or even more.  The technique is not 
necessarily in the spirit of the game, though.  Purists try to play
straight through.  But if you have an especially tough game, or one without
a level select so that you can practise the lengthy to reach later levels,
this technique can provide you with a large reserve of lives to draw from
in trying to master the hard parts.

	Lynx Pouch
	And 10 games:
		Blue Lightning

That's a nasty spot.  Do you have the hammer yet?  If not, you've missed
something in one of the other levels of the tower (and I can't for the life
of me remember what it was that I was avoiding - is there a boss you have
found but not fought yet?

Once you get the hammer, you have to go to the alternate 11th floor - hard to
explain, but from the 10th floor, there are 2 exits (or else from the 9th
there is one exit to the 10th, and one which goes up two flights to the 11th.
Anyway, it is another purple area, where all the pillars have some sort of
design on them (they look like the pillar that you can't get to on the same
floor as the "old dude").  Go as far right as you can on the screen, and then
count to the fourth pillar from the wall.  Break that with the hammer.
Now you can go back to the room, and investigate from there.

Hmmm... if 2.1 million SNES were sold at Christmas this means there were about
6.6 million SNES in October. If 6.6 million is 69%, then that leaves less than
3 million Genesis and TG-16 combined. That can't be right. How did they get

Play the game using the 1 player mode and have the other player
use the other controller to play Tails. Pretty stupid since most
of the time Tails ends up off the screen and joins you later, only
to be left behind again. This does come in handy when fighting the
bosses since everyone stays on the same screen and Tails can't die.
They should have left this out and put more into the 2 player mode.

It's not a problem to enter the Tardis with the Spring Shoes unless you JUMP in
with the aid of the shoes, ie... pressing the A button while stepping into the
Tardis.  I don't believe it to be a cartridge problem, just a firmware bug. :-)

and his friend tried the code many times and were successful sometimes. 
Unfortunately, I caught the near-end of the conversation and I'm not sure

him.  I have all of the items from the park.  I am wondering if there is
a trick I am missing or did I just wimp out too soon again the goons in the
basement and not build up enough hit point and magic points to survive against
this boss?  I am considering teleporting back to the basement and killing
more goons (until I can but that potion that cost 60000 gold pieces) but I
wonder if there is another way?
