Now we know that a lot of people are going to complain and say "Oh wow.. the LJN guys are doing another NES game. *YAWN*".  Well that's just not true.  We played the Famicom version of Parodius Da! and the Famicom is NOT the NES.  And before you get all uppity about how we also played the PAL version of the game, remember that it's generally regarded as the "nes" in Europe.  To us, that's just not the same thing.
