Earthworm Jim
Earthworm Jim Platform game containing as much worm-based action as you can imagine.
And I can imagine that's quite a lot. Ahem.
Comedy action ensues as you prance about the landscape with quite a few different moves available and you are able to whip things with your stretchy body or frag them with your machine pistol.
Other comedic highlights include dropping a fridge onto a see-saw to catapult a cow out of the way. Ho-ho.
Actually, a damn fine game for a handheld.

Samurai Shodown
Samurai Shodown Curse of the handheld beat-em-up strikes again.
Characters so tiny and moves so limited you must have a tiny mind but unlimited wallet to have bought this.
Nowhere near as good as the full-blown TV sized version available on the 3DO console.
A brave attempt at a handheld beat-em-up that unfortunately only delivers thumbnumbness.

Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic Sega's number one son comes out to play again.
Faithfully capturing all the elements of the original game, this outing cannot be faulted.
The graphics looke the same, the sound plays the same and even the speed matches the pace of the original.
A whirlwind piece of platforming entertainment that proves more exciting than a dodgy plumber with jumping ability.

The Adventure of Batman and Robin
Batman & Robin Usual platform affair using the usual boring superhero who really has no powers whatsoever, just a lot of money.
Throw batarangs and punch villains. You can even jump onto high ledges and hang from telephone wires for a bit of variety.
This game is pants. Pants worn on the outside of your tights.

Gunstar Heroes
Gunstar Heroes Superb platform shooter which really shows the above Batman game for the heap of tripe it is.
Pick one of the Gunstar Heroes and the type of fire power before going into the fantastic surroundings of a maelstrom of carnage.
Just like the Megadrive version, this game kicks ass and kicks it hard.
Careful you don't lose your shoe.
