catpower1980: Thanks for pointing that out as "Digital Leisure" didn't ring a bell immediately. This is a goldmine of oldies right there (played them in arcade and on CD-I), GOG curation has failed us once again.... :(
For price reference purposes, Mad Dog Mc Cree is only something like 3-4 euros on the 3DS Eshop......
Yeah, Mad Dog McCree was an awesome game for that time on CD-I. I have the original American Laser Games version on PC as well but that lacks video quality.
tinyE: Wait wait wait, are we talking about the same Dragon's Lair that took $2 to play and 10 minutes to finish? :P The one where you didn't really play it, you just picked a direction and the ensuing cartoon let you know if it was the right direction?
Playing it became like NES Puch Out. As soon as you memorized the correct sequence of moves it became a joke. :P
Yes we do. :-P But it's still fun to have on the shelf. Back then the quality was awesome. And with the new versions it still looks awsome. The only thing that worries me is that in the new versions
apparently
keyboard support isn't working / not implemented. It's mouse only, no gamepad as well. So then I would rather have an older version.

SCPM: The very same. GOG already has Kingdom: The Far Reaches here, complete with those annoying casino machine sound effects, so why not a more popular title like Dragon's Lair. ;-)
Also, Digital Leisure has Brain Dead 13:
http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/brain_dead_13 I voted for that one as well. Although on the site of Digital Leisure I couldn't find a trace about it.
the.kuribo: To be fair, the quote from the publisher doesn't necessarily mean it was an outright rejection. It's also possible that GOG was interested, but Digital Leisure didn't agree to the terms that GOG had set forth (or vice-versa).
catpower1980: Yep, that's why I added the price of one of their game on 3DS as disagreements about pricing can be a factor of rejection To me the 3-4€ is somehow fair but interestingly, I don't recall many GOG oldies under the 5€ threshold (for new indies, prices can be seen as lower than 5€)
The prices on the website of DL say 'Suggested Download Price: $9.99'. If it's a nice good remaster then I would pay that price for it. If it's buggy then I would wait for a sale. :-P I do hope that DL and GOG would get a deal. Since HuniePop worked out I guess this should be possible too since they're nice good old games.
