You've NEVER heard of Balloon Fight?  You better review that one...it plays just like Joust but with balloons - it was a launch title as well.

It's on the Wii U for $5.  [smile]

Or $0.30 if you got it when it was offered for a discount.

At the end of the day, you're not missing much if you skip it.  

Great, write up by the way.  Now, I want to order the book from Amazon, using your link, of course.  [wink]

I was shocked to read that you never heard of Balloon Fight! I think of it as a must have for the NES. While we are on the subject of the NES, I was surprised to see that you never reviewed Gremlins either.
