Tim -DMG vs. Super Game Boy the first "Super Game Boy exclusive" video game.

Tim - Punch Out NES to SNES - a complete ground-up conversion, started from scratch. The main focus of the original was the technical achievement of porting the NES MMC2 mapper, but this version focuses on the game itself.  It’s got all the advantages of a NES to SNES conversion, along with rumble support.
