Not sure if anyone is a vinylophile like I am, but here is something.

The whole Famicom Kid Dracula soundtrack is being released on vinyl.

Well that is very coincidental.

[meleu]

can we start collecting suggestions for December?

I thought that it would be cool to have a game with a Xmas ambience. Like these ones:

• Daze Before Christmas (MegaDrive)
• Daze Before Christmas (SNES)
• Home Alone 2 (NES)
• Home Alone 2 (SNES)
• Batman Returns (NES)
• Batman Returns (SNES)
• Batman Returns (MegaDrive)

Any other suggestions?

I get how these tie into christmas, but how does Batman Returns tie in?

Also, doing a quick search pretty much shows that most, if not all xmas games were just the worst. So maybe let not make xmas a requirement?

Have you watched the movie? It has a Christmas ambiance, and so are the games.

[lilbud]

@meleu The only Batman movies I watched were the Dark Knight movies and Lego Batman

I haven't had my Cheevos working lately bc I forgot my dingus password, but luckily I screenshot every ending on the Pi. I definitely used save states though.

[meleu]

@hooperre Well done!!

Had to step away from attempting most of the month. Taking one last stab today at this.

Any ideas for next month?

I beat Kid Dracula with an hour and a half left in the month! WHEW!

Edit: My achievement shows 12-1 but it’s 10:40 PM EST on 11/30. DONT TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME RETROACHIEVEMENTS. 😡

I made a poll with some ideas for this month's game of the month. These are not exactly Christmas themed, but they are great games nonetheless.

Pocky and Rocky piques my interest lol. All of these would be a first for me.

[meleu]

@lilbud should not it be a game chosen by the winner of the month?

[lilbud]

@meleu oh yeah, sorry totally forgot.

Ummm...who was the winner of this month? I believe multiple people won the challenge this month.

[A Former User]

We could determine it a couple ways I guess...

• Most achievements?

• Fastest to the achievement of beating the game without passwords or continues?

[meleu]

Each one that completed the challenge suggest a game and we set a poll. My suggestion is Batman Returns (SNES).
