And Wario Land is fun to play. But the best game for the system, and arguably one of the best games that year, was Teleroboxer. A spiritual sequal to Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, Teleroboxer was probably the last great 2D console boxing game. It is definitely worth picking up where you can. Speaking of Nausea, does anyone else remember those backgrounds in Wario Land which independently scrolled on the horizontal axis, but not on the vertical one? I miss that little easy-bake nausea maker. You’re actually missing quite a few good games in there. 3D tetris is, understandably, the best 3D tetris out there. And Wario Land is fun to play.
