Battletoads please come back

There was a really cool game for Nintendo in the early 90's called Battletoads

There is a petition out there to get the game back for Microsoft XBox 360, Nintendo DS, and/or Nintendo Game Boy Advance.

It would be cool if you signed the petition.

Here is the basic storyline of the game:

After her defeat by the Galactic Corporation at the battle of Canis Major, the Dark Queen and her renegade space troops retreat to the outer reaches of the universe, hiding out in dark spaces
between the stars.

Meanwhile, on board the spaceship Vulture, Professor T. Bird and the Battletoads - Rash, Zitz and Pimple - are escorting the Princess Angelica back to her home planet, where her father, the Terran Emperor, awaits her safe arrival.

Along the way, Pimple, the biggest Battletoad, takes Angelica out for a cruise in the Toadster to a nearby Leisure Station.

Pimple and Angelica burn space, but the Dark Queen ambushes them before they can get there.  Luckily, Pimple manages to send out a distress signal before the Toadster is gobbled up and carried away to Ragnarok's World, the Dark Queen's planet...

So, there's the situation, 'toad: the Dark Queen's kidnapped the Princess Angelica and your best buddy Pimple - what're ya gonna do about it?!

You're gonna get real MAD, that's what you're gonna do - and then you're gonna get EVEN!

There was even a short-lived comic book for awhile…

It's Toads Vs. Frogs in this game!

The stage is set.  The classic battle.  A game of strategy.  It's a misty morning on the pond.  The combatents are ready.  The debate will be settled once and for all in this game of Toads Vs. Frogs Checkers!

(sure, toads are really a kind of frog, but we're aiming to show all those classic, snooty frogs that the time for toad independence is here)

Stars 'n Toads Comic Strip

Fun little toad-based comic strip.  "Two New Office Humor Comic Strips Every 'Moanday'"

There is a coincidental disclaimer at the bottom of the homepage:

Any similarity between the comic strip Stars 'n Toads and your office is probably just pure coincidence;
But,
If the shoe fits;
Wear it!

Squish The Cane Toads

Here's a pretty funny game (assuming from Australia) that lets you drive a truck over cane toads and hear them splat.  But, wait, there's more.  After each round you trade in smashed cane toads for repairs to your truck if you hit rocks along the way. 

You do need Adobe Shockwave installed on your computer to play.

Anyway, thought I'd share this toad game - more to come.
