Rocket Knight Adventures and rare Felix the Cat games being re-released - but sadly not for PC (yet?)
Pengling Jan 13
I desperately wanted to post about this yesterday, but had to wait until I got a response to an enquiry I sent about whether or not there would be a Steam release; Apparently it's not planned right now, but requests from PC-gamers are being passed on to the relevant people.

Anyway, Konami, in association with Limited Run Games, using their Carbon Engine emulation platform, will be re-releasing some much-requested and unexpected retro titles this year - one collection of NES and Game Boy Felix the Cat games, which are ludicrously expensive on the second-hand market these days, and, even better, a collection of the original Rocket Knight Adventures trilogy for the 1990s consoles (Rocket Knight Adventures and Sparkster: Rocket Knight Adventures 2 for the Mega Drive, and Sparkster for the SNES). The latter is even being backed by a full merchandise-line that, in all honesty, should've happened back in 1993!





Check 'em out here (Felix the Cat), and here (Rocket Knight Adventures).

There's also a third Konami collection, not yet formally announced, which will be revealed on February 24th. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a Bomberman one, but knowing my luck it won't be. We'll see!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Just the one. This would be an awful lot tougher if it was a Bomberman collection!

For context for those who aren't Spider and don't know this: I collect plush versions of video game and computing characters, and have done so for most of my life.
