They ported this dinosaur to the GBA? Wow. What's next, Karate Champ Advance?

Dunno when they're going to realize that people don't really want to pay more than $5 to play a 10-year-old game. And while I'm all for old-arcade-hits collections, they're always offered at really bad value - like, eight games for $15. I'd pay $15 for, like, 100 old arcade games - say, Atari's entire game collection from 1980 to 1990. And this would be plenty to generate a profit from really minimal work... seriously, all they have to do is create a MAME port and bundle it with the ROMs. Probably take a sole GBA coder a week or two.

This game is NOT a port of the original Altered Beast.

Woah - looks like the Mod got OWNED by a newbie! :-)

I can confirm that this is NOT a port, but a totally different game.

OK, then.

I am aware that they've been porting some older titles, so I assumed this was part of that trend.

I wish there was a microcenter in my area. There are a few games there I would like to pick up.
