My second reply was a serious reply over missing an opportunity to be a smartass. |

You know, I never mentioned this before, but that Pizza Hut competition I got to the finals in. You got to have your name in the credits of the American version or have your dick as one of the enemies. They sent me pics of the final, but I think they took it out. I'll see if I can find the pic with my dick as one of the enemies. I think it was one of the mansion bosses they never implemented, since Simons Quest was probably the biggest rush job of the NES era.
In one rare proto of Simon's Quest,Dracula's asshole was one of the body parts you had to find.

Do none of you remember the EGM April Fool's thing from way back in the day? Though, that might've been Simon Belmont in the TMNT game, now that I think about it.. |

Says Castlevania Dungeon: "Quite a long time ago, Electronic Gaming Monthly reported that you could play as Trevor Belmont in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Arcade Game. This was, of course, false and meant to be joke, but it'd make sense because TMNT2 was designed by Ultra (a subsidiary of Konami.)" |

I still have the EGM in which a reader wrote in to inform EGM that not only were they bastards for running that gag, but their screenshots were actually of Trevor Belmont, and therefore the editorial staff were a bunch of ninnies. |

Man, I wish I would've bought more of EGM's April issues back in the day. The only old one I remember is some Street Fighter thing. I want to say it was a cheat to play as Sheng Long, but I don't remember. |

Ultra also converted Silent Service for Microprose to the NES.
But Mission Impossible....was that developed by Konami and released and developed under the Ultra name??
I guess the SS conversion means Konami and Microprose had some sort of partnership for the NES.
That's evident in the Pirates! NES version as well. |

Oh, I dunno, some may argue he fucked us all pretty badly back then. Of course, I argue it's the followers.

You think you know 80's bedsheets? You dont know nothing, BROTHER!
Be ashamed or jealous of my awesome curtain blocking my kitchen!
I REEEAALLY need to change it to something else as its cause quite a bit of embarrassment when I have people over who I dont know well. |
