Not yet, anyway. Buying that <i>Earthworm Jim<\/i> port only to discover it was a choppy, clunky mess was a bit of a day ruiner. And you wonder, even if I did trade it in, what else was there worth getting?<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">That aside, it&#8217;s still mighty nifty looking back at the handheld&#8217;s lineup and the sheer variety of stuff there was for it. I admit I thought it was a bummer that ONM&#8217;s reviews were so brief, but looking up footage of the games does reveal there&#8217;s not a lot of meat on their bones, so I suppose the bite-sized reviews worked well in that regard. And hey, you get more reviews for your buck!
