    Default Action 52 makes Color Dreams look like Konami!!

    Well, I recently picked up a complete Action 52 NES for a decent price, and took the time to play this wretched thing.

    I honestly think some teenagers today could program better games. Their "Franchise" game Cheetahmen is probably the most playable game on the cart, and it isnt even close to good!

    After giving up on it, I put in a Color Dreams game Master Chu and the Drunkard Fu (or whatever its called) and actually ENJOYED IT!!!

    I think I found the remedy for crappy games, play Action 52 first, and any game will be good in comparison!!

    Well anyways, anyone else actually play all 52 games on this thing? Does anyone actually have a favorite? Did anyone kill themselves after playing it? etc etc you get the point...comment...discuss
    By all means, turn me into a child star.... Perhaps I can move to Californ-i-ay and wrangle me a three-way with the Olsen twins

    Liar! There is no way that Master Chu could be construed as being in any way "good". Maybe "less craptacular", but it can't be good.

    Just wait until you try the Genesis version. Like the NES version, it's got fifty two games, but not one of them is worth playing. I'm still not sure why I bought the game, or why I tortured Captain Wrong with it shortly afterward. Can you ever forgive me, Captain?!

    Yes indeed, both versions of Action 52 are quit terrible. Anyone else have a problem getting some of the games to even work?

    c8b?! No fucking way.

    And, having never played the NES Action 52 (for the best), I have managed to invest some time with the Genesis one. It is definitely shitty shitty shitty. If the NES A52 Cheetahmen is the same as the Genesis one, I don't know you can possibly say the NES one is even playable at best.

    I played some Cheetahmen 2 today. Loved every crappy minute of it.

    I just have to say that Alfredo and the game with the guy with the big feet on Action 52 are great. I love how there are a ton of shooters on A52.

    Make sure to visit the Cheetahmen corner for all of your cheetahmen needs.
