I fucking wish the old covers were 'right'. Fighting two robot masters at the same time in an open stage would have been really fun.

I love how Rock looks like a riot cop who wants to arrest Dr.Light but he has to gun down Boomarangman and Drillman first. That's how the game should've been like.

That's because the European market was split in to. Pal A (UK and Italy) and Pal B (Rest of Europe). One had a deal with Mattel, the other didn't.
