Oh, here's a list of Retro games (and hacks) that were suggested in the last patreon poll, not counting Mario hacks, and not counting stuff already posted:

River City Ransom
Neutopia
Astro Boy: Omega Factor
Rockman 4 - Burst Chaser X Air Sliding
Crystalis
Super Metroid
DKC Trilogy
Faxanadu
Kirby and the Amazing Mirror
Crash Bandicoot Trilogy

Also, if PS1 counts as retro, then I forgot to suggest Incredible Crisis

Of the Patreon #12-#20 bracket, the classic console games are:
  • Crash Bandicoot Trilogy (wouldn't recommend, wait for the modern remaster)
  • Kirby and the Amazing Mirror (this please)
  • Faxanadu (maybe not)
  • DKC Trilogy (a bit long for intemediary content, unless you do just the one, and even then)
Of course I have to second Astro Boy: Omega Factor because it is the best GBA game of all time, and a wonderful Treasure title to boot.

Yeah, I'd also say no to Faxanadu, only because the fan translation of The Legend of Xanadu is supposed to come out later this year, and that's supposed to the best Xanadu game.

Seeing how much he got into Shovel Knight, and apparently in a Megaman-ish mood, I really want to see raocow play Joylancer: Legendary Motor Knight now




It's like, super action, GBC Rocketman Xtreme meets, uh, rocket knight? raocow seems to really like high-action platformy-fighty games, I think he'd have a really good time.

I think Nakko-Bazookie could work for raocow...
It's pretty neat. And short.

Oh no I forgot the link:

This has probably been recommended before, but Khimera: Destroy All Monster Girls is something I'd suggest. It looks fun, silly, short, just right up raocow's alley.

Anyway here's a vid:

If you want something a little different for the A-side, I would suggest playing through all of the e-Reader levels in the GBA port of Super Mario Bros 3. It combines SMW elements with the SMB3 engine, and sometimes even throws in SMB2 elements... and the level designs all have that little extra bit of polish that the Japanese Mario developers tend to put in.

It'd be a nice break from your usual SMW/SMBX routine. If you ever consider doing this I could provide a save file with all the ereader levels unlocked if needed.
