Hey Code,

Welcome aboard.  Rollie is not out yet, so stay tuned.  Good luck on Starkeeper, I want to play that as well.  The other ones are still available unless you are looking for used only.

Buy Black Box Challenge while it's available. It's a very long and good homebrew RPG. You'll regret missing it if it goes out of print IMO (I know someone here was looking for a copy in their signature for a long time 😁)

Good luck with the search, but with the exception of consistently longtime available homebrews like Battle Kid and the occasional game that slips through the cracks on Ebay, they rarely sell for too much less than the original price. There's low demand, but low supply too.

Thats good to know. Im very new to Homebrew games and Im kinda learning the ropes. Thanks for the info guys!

@Scrobins is correct.  Used copies of homebrews that are still being sold new are hard to come by.  Most people are not selling them.  If you work hard enough, you can usually find someone that is willing to do a trade (brew for brew) though.

I recently ordered a copy.  The new version is cart only and grey (not black like the first release).  This change was not an issue for me and I am glad I made the order while it is available again.  I never saw a listing for resale or trade for the first printing.

Of course, and welcome! What kinds of games do you like? We’d be happy to make additional recommendations 😃

Im a big fan of platformers, shoot em ups, and beat em ups.

If you like puzzle games at all, I can't recommend "The Incident" enough.  Top 5 for me.  KHAN has stopped production about a year ago.  Not sure if he will be selling them again, but it worth looking for.

To give you an idea of my tastes, this is what I'm currently looking for on each system.

NES:

Splatterhouse 

Haunted: Halloween 85 and 86

Starkeeper 

Log jammers

Rollie 

mega man II 

Mario/Duck Hunt 

Mario 2

Mario 3

Snes:

Super Mario World 

Zelda link to the past

Final fight

Killer instinct

Joe and Mac 

Gradius

Tmnt time

Donkey Kong country 

Genesis:

Lion king 

Aladdin 

Golden axe 

Sonic

 

Keep in mind that Im just now getting back into physical. Most of these can be found easily. 

 

So Its a bit of a mix of nostalgia of the games I played when I was a kid and Homebrews. Are SNES homebrews a thing? I would assume so...

SNES and Genesis homebrews exist but are less plentiful. For SNES you might like Sydney Hunter. For Genesis get Tanglewood and Xeno Crisis.
