Golgoth recently dropped a press release to cut off conjecture about their next project at the pass, simply stating, "after our Toki remake release, we'll work on Joe and Mac license." That simple confirmation, as well as the concept art seen above, was really the only meat on the release's bones -- platforms for the remake, or a tentative launch window still remain unannounced.
We'd love to toot our own horn for correctly guessing the franchise Golgoth would work on next, but the studio's boss did say it would be a Data East-developed co-op platformer. One needn't be a world-renowned cryptographer to suss that one out.

Wow there must be no more good ideas left if we're down to remaking C titles of barely recognizable characters. Too bad , let us morn the loss of creativity.

Hasn't Hollywood been doing this for, oh I don't know, the past 20 years?

What exactly was wrong with TMNT? And don't say the music.

Ubisoft's TMNT game for the GBA was really pretty good. Better than Konami's GBA TMNT games. I just think they need to stop with the remakes and make games that nod to the old ones but with deeper gameplay (chaining up combos in the GBA one is great)
Anymore these days, remakes are just an excuse not to have to design new levels.

You know the comment, "If you have nothing relevant to add to a thread, don't comment on it." is actually a smart ass comment itself.

YEEEEEESSSS!!!!!!
Joe & mac was an awesome game, definitely a buy on the name alone to support them.
But what we really need is a port of Caveman Games for NES. Creating the fire against my bro and blowing his fire at the same time = great memories.

Awesome. I never played the game, but from what I've read it seems like fun. Also, it reminds me of a game I did play back in the day: Congo's Caper. Here's hoping they remake that game next! (Though perhaps it's better they don't to avoid being labeled as the studio to turn to when you need a game remade, and nothing else).

I'm so glad this was announced. My older brother and I used to LOVE playing this game. We had so much fun beating each other up so that we could get the power-ups.
I still very vividly remember the first T-Rex boss fight. And after you beat it, that hot chick comes out and hugs the player who got the last hit, while the other player's character looks sad.

Yes! I will totally buy this! This was the first cart for my SNES, and as such a rendezvous with both nostalgia, and pure awesome!
