Will, Just for the record, I want to point out that there are two side scrollers in existance--Tarzan Junior and Super Liam. Pipe II has side-scrolling levels, but that's not the focus of the game, and so what if James makes another side scroller. So what if he makes a hundred more. I, for one, will still buy them. And just for fun ... Super Mario Brothers I, II, and III Rolling Thunder Fist of the North Star Double Dragon I through III Russian Attack Duck Tales I and II Wizards and Warriors I through III Dr. Chaos Kirby's Adventure Metroid Robo Cop I through III Megaman I through IV and X through X5 Beavis and Butthead Jungle Hunter Pitfall, both the original and the Mayan Adventure Every one of the Castlevania games up until the Gamecube release ... This list is by no means complete, but try to guess what all of these mainstream games had in common.
