Lock 'N Chase Against Shinobi Triple Trouble
« on: July 17, 2012, 03:43:16 PM »

We round up the last 3DS Game Gear VC launch titles, but can a thief named Lupin steal the recommendation prize?

I owned a Game gear growing up, but I didn't own any of the titles recently made available on the 3DS Game Gear Virtual Console service. Judging by Neal Ronaghan's write-up of Shinobi, and Andy Goergen's recommendation of Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble, I'm starting to feel like I missed out.

But perhaps my major lost opportunity was Lock 'N Chase, which our very own James Dawson seems to think is a lost classic from a time when maze games ruled the arcades.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

I played Lock 'N Chase on an Intellivision.  Its a fun game.  If the GB version is a faithful port it would definitely not be a bad $3 investment.
