I don't care about these three games in particular, but I appreciate you posting about it, letting us know of the updates. Very nice. 👌

That Amazing Hebereke game seems like a proto Power Stone.

How are these? Super R-Type looks interesting. Couldn't figure out much about the other two games.

Super R-type is a game I owned as a kid and have no idea who got it for me or how it ended up in my collection.

It was always the "difficult" game in my collection as a child.

Hmm... if it was difficult back then, I wonder how difficult it would feel now. Will keep that in mind when giving it a try, thanks!

R-Type is a classic. I haven't played it much, because I always liked Gradius so much better. The other two were Japan-exclusive. Wrecking Crew '98 looks like a puzzle game based on the NES game Wrecking Crew.

Looked up Gradius, will give it a try too.

I like shooters, but I don't like bullet hell much, and most of the time they go together. Worth a try on NSO though.

Super R-Type is a retooling of stages from the arcade original and sequel with pretty bad slowdown. You'd have a better experience with R-Type Dimensions. Hopefully they'll put R-Type III on SNES NSO because it's a much better game.

Wrecking Crew '98 is a puzzle game. I never liked it much, myself.

Amazing Hebereke is an overhead view fighting game that's nothing special. Ufouria on the NES (which is where the characters are from) would have been a better pick.

Thanks for the info. I'll give Super R-Type a try (since it's available for free), and if I like will check R-Type Dimensions out.
