And that's where Powerball ultimately lands – it's essentially an old-school Virtual Console version of one of the Wii's major first-party releases from last year. If you're a fan of "combat" sports titles that are over-the-top and unrealistic like Mario Strikers Charged, NBA Jam and (for the obscure reference of the day...) Bill Laimbeer's Combat Basketball, then Powerball could be 800 Wii Points well spent for you. But if you and your friends have already played Mario Strikers to death since last July, you're probably better off saving those digital dollars for another day.

Warbirds is designed and written by Robert Zdybel, a newcomer to Lynx game design; He dedicates the game to his father, and it's a worthy piece of gaming to be proud of. It's a game that's simple in concept and fun to play. Throw in true simulator realism, a variety of options, and the ability for four-player competition, and the sum is greater than its parts. For the video gamer looking for realistic aerial action, Warbirds leaves eveything else behind.

Quackshot is a good platformer tripped up by some questionable controls. The game is just unnecessarily frustrating in spots, such as the desert scene when you're trying to jump across gaps and land on narrow platforms, and it pulls the game down. If you love Castle of Illusion (and you should), Quackshot isn’t a bad companion piece. Just ratchet down your expectations -- and don't pay too much.

You cannot take anything away from Jackson's musical and performance legacy, but this bit of vanity simply falls apart due to pure laziness. The dance moves are a hoot at the beginning, as are the first few sights of the game's weirdness, but then the whole thing collapses into banality. Everything is stuck on repeat. You may want to rescue this one from a garage sale for the quirk factor, but it will not spend much time in your Genesis.

This is a mind-blowing awesome adaptation. I'd recommend it to most video-game players -- fans of driving games, fans of shooting games, fans of action games, and fans of the arcade original. It's a challenging, well-balanced arcade/action game, faithful to the original, worthy of the Lynx and offering lots of hours of fun. This goes right up there with Blue Lightning as one of the best Lynx games around. Grab yourself a copy, but don't be surprised if they disappear fast.

Sunsoft's Batman accurately recreates the movie and it was certainly a welcome treat after seeing the import featured in early gaming rags. Unfortunately, the game is too short and not especially challenging. If you are an absolute Batfan, this is worth adding to your collection since it does evoke the 1989 movie so well, but just don't expect a "wowza" of a game.

Gaiares is an excellent shooter that has aged quite well since the sunset of the Genesis. The TOZ system of stealing weapons is an engaging idea that adds dimension to what would have been otherwise a merely "good shooter." If you are assembling a Genny collection and fancy a bit of galactic thumb-numbing, Gaiares is a smart acquisition.

Metal Gear for mobile is an exceptional port of the classic game and I cannot imagine why any fan of Solid Snake wouldn't want this on their phone. The Tetris and Bejeweled crowd should pass, though, as this is a pretty tough little game that leans hardcore.
