Dude, if you want to play online with people that share your love of the game, give online play a chance. Don't know who peed in Premium's Corn Flakes, but it is hella fun playing online. (It is worth nothing, in fact, he played online for years!) One ROM hack allows 2 versus 2, so it is nonstop action.
You can play in leagues, or you can just play pickup games for fun. Join our Chat Group here:
