As stated above, select was for 2 players, and start was not part of the code, it was just to get past the title screen faster.

Indeed - the code is simply "UUDDLRLRBA." After that, the code in entered and complete. Now you may start the game, which may require you to press the "select" and "start" buttons.

FYE and some other stores are selling the Premium for $350 after $50 rebate. Being patient for the next Overstock deal is probably the best bet though.

This better not cost more than 400 Micrisoft Points,.. ($5.00)

I still think they over charged for SFII with 800 points,....

Well, it wasn't too expensive as SFII turned out to be the best selling XBLA game up to that point.

Damnit, you're tempting me but the wife would kill me. I think I'll just play with my GameCube and Xbox until the Wii comes out. I'll get the 360 net year. Maybe the price will drop a little more by then.

Contra 3 on the Super Nintendo... I almost loved it. But I loved Secret of Evermore even more.

Square-Enix, don't make a sequel to your Super Nintendo games, your development team has sucked after the release of Final Fantasy 10, storyline sucked so bad!
