Well, one person can. ? Not sure anyone else ever has.

The monkeys ARE a pain! They do shift position each time their vine reappears, so that does give you some control over avoiding landing on them. Good luck!

I’m super happy to take suggestions for games to add to these polls. Expect to see MR in a poll very soon!

? I thoroughly understand a preference for the original carts and hardware, but you don’t have to buy every game that comes along here. Lots of folks use multicarts or emulation to play the games they don’t yet own.
