4 in 1 1994

Manufacturer: New Spica
Number of actual games on cart: 4

This is very interesting cartridge. It's one of those multi-cartridges that doesn't have a menu, but you go to the next game by pressing the reset button on your NES. Furthermore this cart has a cool white color that I haven't seen before. The label certainly doesn't look bad either, on the back of the cart there are the letters NEW SPICA inscripted.. The cart claims to have four games on it, and there are indeed four games on it! Let's see which games they are:

1. NY Yankies
You probably haven't heard of this name, but this is the Japanese name of the underrated platformer Rockin' Kats! This game is worth your time and you won't find it on a multi-cart quickly.

2. Darkwing Duck
That's right! Who thought that there were only early Famicom titles on multi-carts is wrong! Darkwing Duck is a game by Capcom released at the end of the NES' lifetime. It's often referred to as 'Mega Man 7' for NES. It's a great game that offers a good challenge, and plays similar to the NES Mega Man games. Interesting fact is that the copyright info was not deleted in this game.

3. Indiana Jones
Referred to as 'Indiana Jones' on the label, this is actually 'The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles'. I have to admit that I haven't really played this game so far. While the graphics seem to be looking good, the game isn't considering it's in the Hall of Lame at RoyalRanger's NES Site.

4. Turtle Fighter
The last game on the cart is the rarest turtles game for the NES, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters. Except for Urban Champion, this is the only one-on-one fighting game released for the NES and it does the job quite well. Copyright info was not deleted here, I guess the pirates were lazy again.

In short this a very good multi-cart. Although it features only four games, these four games are all pretty hard to find games and pretty late releases. If you can find this cart, get it!
