If its animated by Bluth and has a similar look, then I'm in. But despite the wonderful look of the game, does anyone remember how frustrating it was? 50 cents to play, as opposed to 25 cents for every other game at the time, and if your timing was just a bit off, that was it, game over. I don't know anyone who got very far in this game at all. Even a friend of mine who got an inferior home version for the commodore AMIGA still couldn't make any progress really. I also remember the animated series from Ruby-Spears being fairly decent.
There are no more good TV Shows, only ones that haven't disappointed me yet.

No emotional connection to the game, but I'm all for Bluth coming out of retirement.

I played the Sega CD version enough that I could win it (fairly, no cheats), and it was pretty close to the arcade with I believe only a few scenes missing. I have it on my arcade cabinet running on Daphne now but my timing is shot and I can't get very far. Frustrating, yes, but man was it a novel idea when it came out!
