I figure this is a license deal by IAM8Bit and Capcom simply are cashing a flat rate licensing check off this.
Capcom is one of those publishers that embraced digital licensing early on. I remember fully licensed arcade cabs by various companies as far back as 2001 having Street Fighter II and other Capcom games in them.
This is just the first time I have seen someone license it for an actual cartridge release though.
That's what I call dropping some knowledge. The retrogaming community on steemit has officially replaced the rest of the Internet for my go-to place to read about retrogaming.
Even replacing Retro Gaming Magazine for you? Protip: I am co-owner of RGM. Lol
Just checked out your website and bookmarked it. It is definitely in the fold for me now. I did not know there was an Earthworm Jim TWO! (From SNES on the Cheap article).
Thank you, I have a team working over there (I drop in from time to time) covering a lot of bases. I will pass along your comment to the author of the article.
