More like Pac-Man SUS am I right? (canned sitcom laughter)



The lore implications are staggering.

I know this is just a repackaging of old games but I have a story here. As a kid I had played world 2 and rally religiously and I was DESPERATE for a copy of world 3. I had saved up my money for a copy for months and on my birthday we went to gamestop but alas they hadn't any. My parents, ever the generous spirits, elected to take me and my brother all across town to look for a copy. We must've hit eight different stores from gamestops to disc replays to best buys. Just as we were about to give up we decided to go to walmart to pick up some food for dinner when at the electronic section I saw this. I already had two of the games as mentioned before but those disc were thoroughly played out to the point where certain maps in rally refused to load plus inside of it was the treasure I so seeked. It was 10$ more than I had on me but my parents decided to help pay for it. I had never been so excited to experience anything in my life. (I was 10 keep in mind) I stared up and down at all three of the cases. I quickly noticed that world 2 had a different disc art but naturally the majority of my attention was in 3's direction. This holy grail of desire was finally mine. I was at peace. Nowadays it's easy to notice 3's issues but I still quite enjoy it and I'll never forget that feeling I had that day.

Oh also the version of world 2 is the later 1.1 release with some minor changes to enemy behavior and level design in some places. I discovered all of the changes myself.
