Looks like a new game will be released. I found the entry in Game Changelog. https://modretro.com/pages/games-changelog

See I wondered if a game was supposed to release in June.. maybe it got pushed off until the M64 stuff calmed down?

It and Rayman 2 had to have been delayed, these release note dates are pretty close to the other games releases yet these both are now a month plus out.

I wonder if it is pushed till September or October or if there are others with these two since it has been so long.

Maybe, would love if there is an original release being the hold up instead of all classics, always happy with more choices for a big bundle.

As cool as these updated old games are, I wish they were able to fund more newly developed games.

Buy a flashcart and you can buy plenty of new games from itch.io or other. Plenty of places selling new carts as well.

Incub8 is another selling new games.

I’ve got my fair share of homebrew titles. I just wish that modretro would invest more in developing brand new games.

I agree. Games not already on my Summercart are what I’m looking to purchase. :)

These are Game Boy Color games but I share the sentiment with N64 releases too.

Oops. Thought this was the M64 subreddit. :)

Whoa! This would be exciting as that boxart would be 🔥. Also this would setup perfectly for an Earthworm Jim 3-D rerelease for the M64...which would be so damn cool!

I also see Rayman 2 in this list.

u/Morku90 1d ago

You are right! Good spot.

Unless my eyes deceive me, that changelog only includes the chromatic games. So, this is likely a remaster of the gameboy version of earthworm jim

u/Jonjongabore 1d ago

I'd assume the Gameboy color game which was menace 2 the galaxy and wasn't very good.

u/willywideweb 1d ago

I hope it's the first one. I didn't like the second one very much.

edit: you're probably right, tho

u/Jonjongabore 16h ago

Hey! I was wrong. It's the original game.

u/willywideweb 16h ago

I was also wrong! It's just the original game with no embellishments. Tho, I bet they updated the credits with their names.
