Blast Corps™
Emergency! Blast Corps mobilize!
In this action game, released for the Nintendo 64 console in 1997, you take on the work of the Blast Corps: the leaders in the field of heavy-duty demolition. A carrier hauling a pair of defective nuclear missiles has gone off route on its way to a safe detonation site—you must clear the way to avoid catastrophe.
With more than eight vehicles, ranging from a bulldozer to a giant flying mecha, each stage will ask something different, and may require you to change machines partway through—or even operate trains or cranes. Time to get moving!

BATTLETOADS™ IN BATTLEMANIACS
Toad warriors rampage in the Gamescape!
This action game, released for the Super NES console in 1993, begins with a demonstration of gnarly technology that allows people to enter its virtual game world, called the Gamescape. Things escalate thanks to the evil Silas Volkmire, and now Zitz and Michiko find themselves trapped inside the game! To save their friends, it’s up to Pimple and Rash to dive into the depths of the Gamescape. With toady battles, high-speed scrolling stages, and more, you have your work cut out for you if you want to rescue Zitz, save Michiko, and put a stop to Volkmire’s plot!
KILLER INSTINCT™
Do you have the instinct?
This fighting game, released in 1995 for the Super NES console, features a bleak world dominated by a single corporation, Ultratech. Choose your fighter and join in a single-player match against a computer opponent, or challenge another human player in the two-player modes. You can even set up a tournament!
Jump in on your opponent and string your attacks together to create combos. On the receiving end of an attack string? Interrupt your opponent by utilizing Killer Instinct’s iconic Combo Breaker mechanic. Then, when you have them on the ropes, use your Danger Move! It will take more than radical moves and deadly specials to secure your victory, though; it will take Killer Instinct.

R.C. PRO-AM™
Race your RC car to the head of the pack in this classic 1988 game for the NES console. Increase your car’s performance with Turbo, Top Speed, and Sticky Tire items found throughout exciting RC tracks while dodging water and oil hazards. But watch out! You’ll be racing against highly competitive drone cars, so look for missiles and bombs to give you an edge when the timing is right.
SNAKE RATTLE N ROLL™
Get ready to Snake Rattle N Roll!
Released in 1990 for the NES console, this platformer challenges you to slither through 11 levels of wacky landscapes and wild enemies as two of the hippest snakes around—Rattle and Roll. Play solo or with a friend in two-player mode. Gobble up Nibbley Pibbleys to gain segments until your tail starts to flash; that’s when you know you’re big enough to go to the next level. But you must activate the scale somewhere in the level before the exit door will open.
