kurtori Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Yup! I remember playing Dino Dudes on Christmas Day. I'm not sure if I received my items any sooner than retail but I imagine they were shipped to me at the same time as the stores which carried the Jag at that time.

sh3-rg Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Hey man, thanks! If you pre-ordered your system in the summer and then received all three games at the same time, then it's hard to say that Raiden came out some time after the system, even though that's what I found on Usenet. See? This is why it's fun to research this stuff. So you would say that you got Dino Dudes before Christmas, then? Anyone else should feel free to chime in on this, but if Dino Dudes came out before the national retail launch, then shouldn't it be considered among the launch games? "launch window" I believe they call it these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I always assumed the black cartridge releases (versus the standard grey shell that would be common early in the system's life) were the launch titles. Looks like I assumed wrong. Sorry I can't help with the conversation much, I didn't buy my Jag until they were on clearance in '97 or so.
