Yeah, it was the version I had as a kid since I didn't have a SNES. It was a pain to play on the keyboard, but I got pretty far. I think I got to Sigma after a few years of playing. XD

Woot. Ebay did me good today. Picked up 75 manuals and inserts (I'd say about 4 inserts) for $50. Aladdin deck and Dizzy for $16 and Quattro Adventure (Aladdin) for $8.
Did some garage sailing earlier today and found a few things.
At the first sale I picked up a loose Perfect Dark and three N64 promo VHS tapes in great shape all for $2 Tapes were for DKC, Banjo-Kazooie, and DKR.
Stopped by a consignment/auction house and found a bundle of loose N64 manuals for another $2. There were other games there but nothing very old or interesting, but it's a new place to check out so perhaps I'll find something good there again. Manuals were for DK64, Goldeneye, Mario Kart 64, Pokemon Snap, Rayman 2, Super Smash Bros, and various system booklets/inserts.
The last sale I went to had around 20 loose NES games for $2 apiece, so I picked out the better titles which were Contra, MTPO, and Super C. There was a manual for MM4 which I picked up but no game to be found. Got everything for a $5 bill.
Yesterday I got a pretty good looking Wolverine CIB for the NES for $20 shipped. Also, right before going out to buy dinner I decided to stop by goodwill and I found a Mini SNES with 1 controller and cables for $7.
Went to my flea market today, but only saw a couple old Maddens for PS1. Obviously passed. I can't seem to come across anything else besides crappy old sports games.
I did get 2 games in the mail today that I paid a guy on gametz 6 bucks for. We're Back a Dinosaur's Story and Super Off Road Baja. Nothing spectacular, but those are 2 games added to my SNES collection that I didn't have before. We're Back is also a game from my childhood that I remember I had my mom rent over and over. Owning it is probably long overdue.
FINALLY got myself a copy of Fish Dude. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find this in Finland Also got an almost perfect copy of Fighting Simulator, and Scandinavian only release Bamse. So all in all, a good Thursday : )

You can check out some gameplay here. Pretty much the same but with MIDI music IIRC
I still have the manual with my new Mega Man X SNES manual XD They look good together.

I was very happy to get "TMNT Radical Rescue" and "Bart and the Beanstalk"
I also ended up getting 4 manuals I needed, and nearly every box was a condition upgrade for what I had.
Lastly, there were 3 variations I didnt have. Empire Strikes Back (Capcom) and 2 I didnt know existed.
Alien vs Predator (different than my sealed one)
DeadHeat Scramble (different box top than my sealed copy)
