Comment: Hi Retro! Just wanna give some facts! In the Japanese version of this game, there wasn't any Legendary Hero! Granted, you still had to free the planet leaders but after the cry for help was sent, the Nebula Star Goddess; Oruto awakens one of her children; Ristar with the sole purpose of granting wishes. This is also in both the Japanese, American and European GameGear versions but without the dialogue!

Comment: I'm hoping for a sequel to this game along with some others including Mario Galaxy 2, Brawl, Sonic Adventure 2 and NiGHTS Journey of Dreams (yeah I know it wasn't as good as NiGHTS into Dreams but I liked it :D) I also feel that Sonic Unleashed should've been the sequel to Ristar because Sonic wouldn't have the Werehog gimmick (which I liked, I know :D) and Ristar already had stretchy arms.

Comment: Oh hi, Retro.
I just wanted to make some corrections to my last comment. First off, Dazzle is the capture card you should use to record game footage for your normal reviews. For your computer you should use either FRAPS or Camstudio. FRAPS cost money while Camstudio is free. And then, for your VGRetro revival you should start doing Atari 2600 games.
If you want painful mazes, you should check out the NES game ''Golgo 13: Top Secret Episode''.
Not only are there painful, annoying and frustrating but there are 5 OR 6 OF THEM!!
If you want to do game prototypes, you should do these: The Lord of the Rings: Journey to Rivendell for the Atari 2600 and Mike Tyson's Intergalactic Power Punch for the NES. The former requires an emulator, but if you want to know how to play it, check out the instructions on the games's article on AtariAge. MT's IPP later became Power Punch II with some slight changes.
And by the way, the prototype have been released in both ROM and cartridge form. If you want to know how to buy a cartridge, Google it.
If you want to do piratet NES games, I will suggest these multicarts: 31 in 1, 116 in 1, 168 in 1 and 260 in 1.
WOW! This has been a LONG comment.
Sincerly, Erik.

Comment: Hi, Retro.
It's me again.
I found it really sad that your show is
cancelled. But I have some advice for you:
Why don't you start doing indie games?
I mean, 70% of these games are free, so
you don't have to spend a lot of money buying
games anymore.
As for the name, VGIndie sounds a bit stupid to
me, so the name shold be ''VGRetro: Indie Games''.
That should work.
Oh, and you should start using a capture card
for your computer. Dazzle is the best choice
in that case. You should buy the Plantium edition
which only cost like, $50-$70 or something.
Hoping you come back soon,
