First let me say they don't make video games quite as creatively as they used to. I guess its probably because it takes a long time to make a game with 128 bit graphics and Nintendo wants to make money  fast. Ive played 16 bit and even 8 bit games that were more fun than anything Ive played on Game Cube and this is one of them. I got Battletoads as a Christmas present for the NES and loved it but it was too hard(I eventually decided to cheat with a Game Genie attachment to see what happens at the end of the game.) About 3 or 4 years later I got Toe Jam and Earl 2 for a present  for getting on the honor roll and let me tell you the game is one of the most unique and endlessly fun games you can get. It is very similar to Battletoads but not as frustrating. The graphics aren't quite as amazing as 32,64, or 128 bit games but are still cool to look at and the music and gameplay is incredible. If somebody was selling a Genesis at a garage sale I would definitely buy it. Genesis and Super Nintendo still have the best games you can buy no matter what anybody else says.
