funny world/balloon boy genesis

[mailman187666]

I bought this game last night and when I saw it, I thought it was a bootleg because it said 2 games in 1 on the cover. The guy wondered if I was serious when I asked for it because of all the teddy bears on the cover. I bought it because I thought it was a bootleg but it looks like its just unliscensed. The screenshots on the back of the box look like somebody took pictures of thier TV with the game playing. Anybody seen these? whats the deal with Realtech? is it like another Tengen or something?

As far as I know, the Realtech games came out late in the genny's lifespan. Every one Iv'e played/own has been pretty crusty looking. You want a real horrific gaming experience check out "Earth Defence". They can't even spell the story on the manual correctly, and the game is so cheezy looking you can't help but laugh at the coin you wasted buying it...

I remember these Funny World / Balloon Boy everyplace in the used bins at EB and Gamestops. I think this may be the only game to have ever been released directly to the used bin ;)

Back at the end of the Genny lifespan at, I think every person on here and their mother bought this cart, hoping it was a rarity, only to have their dreams die when the fourth "Funny World / Balloon Boy WTF?" thread got posted that day.

I always wanted to play that Wack-A-Mole game they made with the special controller. Anybody have one of those? It's basically just a square with 3 or 4 rows of buttons on it.
