Does anyone out there have a  ? I imagine at least a few people here do. I don't myself (so expensive!) but I did end up getting an emulator of it, which isn't something I generally do but there were so many games for it that I want to try. Are there any games you'd recommend? I'm about to try:

Waku Waku 7
Blue's Journey
The Last Blade
Wings

and a few others. I'm excited!

Wings (AKA Aero Fighters in USA) is also on Super , although it is a harder to find title.  Its pretty hard too, the game is okay in my opinion - the Super version is the one I have.

Windjammers is my favorite  game.  I never had a  home system, but I enjoyed playing it on those multi-game  arcade machines.

Any of the fighters, fatal fury, king of fighters, samurai showdown.  Also Metal Slug was good. 
 
Oh and I wish i had a , quit my job before buying one *slaps self* I'll get one soon though
