toejam and earl

This used to be made for the megadrive but is it available for PC or PS2? It is the original game I am after - not the later ones.
Thanks

Thanks very much capper.
We used to play it as a 2 person game ie that 2 people could play at once. Don't suppose you know if that is possible when playing it on a PC do you? For example, can I get handsets for the computer to let 2 people play simultaneously?
Otherwise, is it likely to ever be available for Playstation?

Sure you can play 2 player, just need 2 pads.

BTW that ebay sale is dodgy, what he is selling is available free from rom nation (google it), you need the Gens (or Kega) emulator, and the toe jam rom.

Granted if you dont like the technologic side of stuff that auction may suit you fine its only cheap.

it's not me thats selling it by the way...i just saw that auction, If you search for emulators you'll get a free one, not sure if 'toejam + earl' will be on it though...

Baseley - what type of pads do I get for the PC (it is a laptop by the way)?

I am a technological idiot so the easiest way is probably the best for me. Do you think that the thing on ebay is ok to buy?

[Baseley09]

You could use any pads from the wired Xbox360 pad right down to the �5 USB Intruder (which i use hehe), best middle ground for this sort of stuff are the gravis gamepad pro at around �15....just any usb pad really that has 3 or more face buttons.

That ebay thing well, if youe unsure about emulation then that is probably the best way to go.

Great advice baseley - looks like I'm off to ebay and PC world then!
Next stop, continuous hours of braindead action with good old toejam and his hapless sidekick earl - yippee!!
Thanks.
