Batch 17 : What a whopper !

With a little pause from the last post, we have a whopper here ! 25 games in this batch with four that appear on a compilation. All the games cover most genre's : Adventure to Shoot'em up's ! I do find though, that on some re-releases, particulary Ricochet, the game title has been renamed on the cover, but the game itself hasn't changed from the original name and release. A fine example in this batch is, Skate Rock Simulator. Originally from Bubble Bus and called Skate Rock with great music by Ben Daglish.
I also have to mention the game, Droids ( Star Wars ) ' The Adventures of R2-D2 and C-3PO '. Just what is going on with this game ? Track it down, either the original or via emulation and give it a go.
