Jackal and Super Off Road: The Baja

I picked up two more games off Ebay: Jackal for the NES and Super Off Road: The Baja for the SNES.


I don't think I've played Jackal before (that I can remember, anyway), but it's supposed to be a fun two-player game, so I decided to get it.  I hope to get a two-player playthrough posted on my Youtube channel some time.


My uncle actually owned Super Off Road: The Baja when I was a kid, so that's how I know about it.  I remember that he used to play Top Gear on his SNES all the time, and one day when both me and my cousin were visiting him, he decided to buy another game.  Since my uncle loved racing, he picked up The Baja and he and my cousin played through the entire game together, as I recall.  I don't remember why I didn't play through the game with them (other than it's only two-player at most), but I did play the game here and there.  The one thing that I always remember about this game is how you could run over people who were riding ATVs.  Although you lose money for doing it, I always found it hilarious and so I would run people over anyway.  It was sort of like GTA before GTA.  I look forward to posting a playthrough of this game too.
