1992 Super Hi K 13 in 1 (32 MEGA)

Manufacturer: Super Hi K
Number of actual games on cart: 13

A few pictures on the label, two Bowsers on the SMB-pic and stupid looking ninja turtles. Like most multi-carts this one has a menu where you can select the game you want to play. It's nothing special, just a list with a cursor, and no sound. This isn't really a bad thing because the games on this cart all make up for that. Here you go:

1. New Ghostbusters II
No, this is not the Activision game, it's the PAL-only version made by HAL! It's much better. The game has an overhead view, quite similar to Zelda. At the beginning you must pick two out of five Ghostbusters and your adventure begins. One Ghostbuster has the gun , and the other has the ghost trap. The latter one cannot be hit. New Ghostbusters II is a really fun game to play and it's great to find it on a multi-cart!

2. G.I. Joe: The Atlantis Factor
The second G.I. Joe game for the NES and it's made by Taxan. This game wasn't released in Europe, and I haven't played it yet. However I heard it's good and I'm happy to find it on this cart.

3. Super Mario IV
Ha, and you thought SMB 3 was the last SMB-game for the NES. Although it's referred as 'Super Mario Bros. III' on the label, it really isn't. This game is a hack of the Famicom game called 'Amarillo' (correct me if I'm wrong). The original character has, of course, been replaced by Mario who now can turn into a ball to defeat his enemies.

4. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project
The third TMNT game is very similar to the second one, but offers some new moves. Great game to find for me, especially because this was the only NES turtle game that wasn't released in Europe.

5. Tokkyuu Shirei Solbrain
This game is the Japanese version of "Shatterhand". It's an action game which features cinematic scenes. It's sort of a mix between Batman and Probotector (because you also play as a robot in this game). I only have played the first stage, but it seems to be a good game. 

6. Batman
One of my favorite NES game doesn't need an introduction. Great action games with great graphics and sound and a perfect challenge. The pirates were lazy because Sunsoft's copyright info is still present.

7. Adventure Island II
Second installment of the famous Adventure Island series. Better than the first game, but nothing great too. The pirates must have thought this game is so great that ,out of respect for Hudson Soft, they didn't delete the copyright info.

8. Super C
The Japanese version of Super C is also on this cart, if anyone knows the exact Japanese title please let me know. Great action game, 2-player simultaneous, this game is just a blast!

9. RoboCop 2
Cool to see on a multi-cart, but I wouldn't really recommend this Ocean game. Game really suffers from bad play control.

10. Jackie Chan's Action Kung-Fu
Fun game, this is the Japanese version (anyone know the title?). In the menu the game is called 'China Dragon' and on the label as 'Spartan II'. Therefore I expected the unreleased game Kung Fu 2, but it wasn't. Jackie Chan's Action Kung-Fu is game with funny graphics, good play control and a welcome addition to this multi-cart.

11. Ninja Gaiden III
Yes, it's the last game of the Ninja Gaiden trilogy. Unfortunately I don't understand a word of it because this is the Japanese version. I'm glad it's on this cart, because also this game wasn't released in Europe, only the first two games from the trilogy were.

12. Double Dragon III: The Rosetta Stone
This is just the Japanese version of DD III: The Sacred Stones. Thos Double Dragon game offers some new cool moves and certain enemoes will join you as you travel a long. The game seems impossible at first, but after some practice it isn't as hard as it seems.

13. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Arcade Game
The second TMNT game is also on the cart, joy! Lazy pirates again, they didn't delete the Konami/Ultra Games info.

Overall this is the BEST multi-cart I know so far. It offers thirteen big NES games, and most of them are worth your time. Next to that it's very nice to see rare games like New Ghostbusters II and Super Mario IV on this cart, and of course the non-euro releases.
