If online play were an option, Street Fighter would really clean up. As a Super NES port, however, it's probably best to cling to your precious memories rather than download it for 800 points. If it's truly the original game, there are only eight playable characters and the action's slow as hell. Give us Super Street Fighter II and we'll talk.

Toe Jam and Earl is a free-roaming adventure game starring rapster aliens and a bunch of presents. Enemies include bees and a crazy dentist. Trust us, it's more fun than it sounds. TurboGrafx and shooter fans should be psyched to play R-Type* again - we sure are.

Then, on January 1, Nintendo's taking a day off by only delivering Baseball and Urban Champion, two NES games no one liked 20 years ago. Oh well, there's always another Monday, right?
