Hasan from NoobFeed writes: Jackal deserves its spot at the table because it has a great audiovisual presentation, lots of replay possibilities, and a good grasp of the genre's basic ideas. Someone might not win every time they roll the dice, but they want to try it again and again. That is, isn't that the whole point of a city built on risk and reward?
How hidden can a gem possibly be? I mean, we’ve had like 35 years to discover these games. Presumably, they were never really hidden. This list should be more like Games You Forgot. Regardless, these are some affordable games that you will probably enjoy if you're an NES fan.
Kotaku writes: "Konami may be reaching ever deeper into the intellectual property well, revitalizing one of its more obscure franchises, Jackal, as a Wii game. Do images of a "working prototype" of what appears to Jackal mean a remake is incoming?
Not necessarily, but given Konami's flood of WiiWare versions of Contra, Gradius and Castlevania, released under the ReBirth moniker, it's clear the company isn't afraid of looking backward. The recently announced HD remake of Rocket Knight Adventures also shows that Konami isn't afraid of venturing into the more obscure."
