Because Konami releases Goemon games in the US about once for every four or five games made in the series... (Goemon 1 & 2 (Super Famicom) collection for GBA)

Fuck. We better get them.
Using Gamefaqs...

IMPACTUUU!!!
25 releases over 7 platforms (several of those remakes), and we have gotten three... ouch.

Yes, I definitely want to see this one... and the DS game... but I'm not hopeful, with this track record.

Did I mention that last month I saw a used copy of Goemon 1 for N64 (Mystical Ninja starring Goemon) at Gamestop and got it? It's alright... very different from GGA. Worse, by a good margin, but different enough that it's also worth playing...
It would suck to be under a giant impacted robot...
Well you have to look at time, not volume. We've gotten more Goemon games in the past five years than all of the years before.
True, but we haven't gotten the two most recent titles.
Well the PS2 game sucked, and the GBA game only recently came out.
Actually, there have been two GBA games... one a supposedly bad game that came out several years ago, and the other in the NES Classics series (we never got that NES game, so we didn't get that one either)... I think this third GBA game isn't out yet.

Hadn't seen reviews of the PS2 game, though... so that was also bad?
yeah
