Ms.Pacman
Midnight Resistance
Mystic Defender
Ghouls N' Ghosts

Yes.

About the games, I'd sell them. Get the arcade version of Daimakamura if you like it and ditch the rest.

Personally, I would keep Mystic Defender because I think it's part of the creme of Genesis launch titles. One of my fav early Genny games.

And I agree 100% that TMNT: Tournament Fighters is very difficult. So difficult that when I rented it one time, I didn't even keep it the whole weekend I rented it for because I was too frustrated. I'm a TMNT fan as well, so the difficulty was off-putting enough for me to take it back to the store.

I dunno, those games are all pretty good, except Battletoads. Of course with GnG and Ms. Pacman you can find superior versions on compilations these days. And Midnight Resistance is sweet. The Genesis port might not be super awesome, but the game itself is a lot of fun.

Midnight Resistance really cheesed me off, so did Mystic Defender.
GnG I might keep. Battletoads, I have not touched it in months. God it's hard.

I don't see what use it would be in trading them in anywhere, for the whole lot you'd probably get $5 of credit.

Actually, with Ms. Pac-Man, I think it's hard to find a superior version. The versions in most complations weren't arcade perfect. However, the Genesis version has new sets of levels and turbo boost options. The graphics aren't as close to the original as the Tengen NES version, though.

Agreed. Most places that *will* take old school games won't give you nearly what they're worth. You'd probably have more fun playing them. Otherwise, maybe someone on the forums will trade.

Yeah, I think I agree with the above post. Maybe if these were PS1 games you could get enough credit to get a newer game, but you may as well hang onto these!

^Yep...probably couldn't even give them away!
Some of those are good titles to keep, imo.
