  1. Catherine is a piece of art. I remember buying the collector’s edition with
    the boxers, art book, sound track and the pizza box haha. Good times! I
    also remember playing gitaroo man on the PS2 man that game was SUPER hard!

  2. I did not expect to see Mystical Ninja on this list. Nintendo needs to
    release it to the Virtual Console already!
