Tooo funny man! I guess there is the little matter of completing Monster Bash I have not forgotten the game and will complete it within the year! (let the countdown begin!). However I will be starting on a new coleco release in late october as something to keep a few gamers busy till monster bash is ready! I'll let Toby do the announcement on that one, when he feels the time is right

 

Nice job on all the released you got out this and last year, you've been a busy person for sure! I'm still kicking myself for not ordering ninja princess! That looked like an amazing port!
