Oh, no worries. I just enjoyed the chance to make a funny.
I'm still hoping to take on Center Court Tennis soon. Real-life tennis has me kind of distracted, though! I own about 25% of the remaining games, so there's surely something for me to do...

Cool ! Me, I'm currently doing Glover (trying to do a 100% run). It is a pretty good game, but it can be frustrating at some moments. I'll talk more about it when it will be done, like I do with every game I beat.
Sh*t ! My Glover save disappeared. I was doing a 100% run and I was at like 36%... Same thing happened twice to Mog in the 2013 thread. Here's what he said: "Funny thing is every other save in the game is still there. Just the file I was using is gone. I even quit out to the main menu last night and saw my file saved. I think I will just need to play it all in one sitting."
I'm not happy now ! I guess Mog's and my batteries are not working good anymore or the game really has a problem with its saves.
Sorry to hear that! Especially given Mog's post, that suggests there might be a bug that corrupts save files. Maybe there's a way to avoid it?
EDIT: Huh, this -- a comment on an article about the unreleased Glover 2 -- is interesting:
"I almost loved the original, but my PAL cartridge had a bug where once you passed the 3rd world (of 6), if you turned off the game the save file would delete itself entirely! The only way to see the end was to enter the (fart and burp noise) cheats or play worlds 4-6 in one session."

Exactly ! I was at the third world. I guess this is also in the NTSC version. It completely spoils the game, IMO. I guess I'll do it this weekend in one LONG shot. That's a great challenge, especially that I'm going for a 100% run. I'll definitely not like my experience with this game, which seemed very good at first, but is becoming less and less interesting... When I searched about the problem on Google, I saw this article, but didn't bother to click on it since it was talking about Glover 2. Thanks for looking that up !
Yup it's the grey one we wouldn't be able to beat all the bosses on the black cart. But I don't know how to officially beat this game as we have beaten all the bosses and got a medal but that was it lol.

Is the co-op mode the same as the 1P mode ? Maybe that's why. Anyway, if you say that you have beaten the entire game and didn't get the credits, I'll let you the points.
Well my wife and I beat the 2p and I beat the 1p but I'm not sure if that's the end. The game kind of confused me as it seemed to have a goal but when we completed it that was it.

How about yourself did you decided to play Glover again ?
I just started to work today (finally, I have a job !) and woke up with the idea to play it tonight. However, I'm just too tired and I'll do it tomorrow. After it, I'll move to Excitebike 64.
Nice! Congrats on the job! Yeah I play mostly at night time lol as I work too. I'm glad you are doing excite bike it's a fun game.
Thanks ! Two years ago, I could play video games late in the night and go to bed at like 4:00 a.m., but I guess I can't do that anymore. Especially when it is time to do a 100% run on a long game like Glover. For Excitebike 64, I never tried it. I hope the best from it !

Yeah 100% can be frustrating especially if there is a bug..... But excite bike shouldn't be too too bad.
What do I have to say about it ? Well, it's a good game, but it has its flaws. If you play it one day, the camera and the controls will be your worst enemies. Indeed, I noticed that sometimes, the controls do not respond well. It can be very frustrating when you die for no reason. Yeah, in this game: you die, die and die, but at least, you have a lot of lives. Glover has good graphics and the worlds are fun, except the "Fortress of Fear" (IMO), which contains one of the most frustrating bosses I've ever seen (Frankenstein). For the difficulty, except this boss and some bonus levels (check out the Frogger one), I found the game to be easy, so it went well. That's strange, since people on gamefaqs.com mostly voted it as tough. Just for your information, AeroFighters Assault is also "tough" according to the same site. The music tracks are unique and I found them to be very original, especially those from the Atlantis World. I tell you, guys: Glover's soundtrack is very good. It is really sad that there's an issue with the saves, because I'm sure I would have enjoyed the game a lot more if I didn't have the goal to finish it in one single day.
In conclusion, I recommend Glover if you're a patient person. It's one of the most unique games I've seen. It's a shame Glover 2 never came out.
I finally got around to finishing road rash 64 ! This game I hold close to my heart as I used to play the pc version with my dad as a kid. This version isn't as good in my opinion but it is definitely a fun game!

Yes, I did !
I completely forgot about Wayne Gretzky's games and Olympic Hockey 98. My bad. I was just thinking about the games with "NHL" in the title.
