If kiddy was donkey, it'd be sharing silver with dkc1

Grabbed By The Ghoulies was unfairly maligned I think. It's nowhere near as good as their peak SNES and N64 output, but it's a charming game and fairly fun. Something that if it came out today, would be a good £30 midrange title like Hi-Fi Rush, not a major full priced title.

They were only good for like 8 years (1994-2002)

Great developer but they got a bit too ambitious when they were working with such limited hardware. Banjo tooie is a dread to play on original hardware making you run around massive maps with 2 DPS, and jet force Gemini is a lot better with modern controls on rarereplay

They certainly made their share of jank for the NES. Some of it was charmingly janky, though. And usually there was a Wise or a Follin on hand to make it sparkle.

Any ya'll try this one? I had no idea what Rare was as a kid but I had this and was exposed to Battletoads
>>
>>11504102
They did make some shovelware but it was good like wheel of fortune. If you think it's a bad game it's because you either don't like the show or you don't think the show adapts well to a video game. Regardless the game works exactly like it should.

Not really a fan of their's though, maybe I just played too much Donkey Kong Country and Banjo as a kid but I don't enjoy playing them anymore at all.
