I have my eye on them but I'm not paying that, and would go with a famiclone (like with crisis force and moon patrol) or a new parts made NES shell bootleg. If it were the original company charging me it's one thing, but I'm not feeding a troll. While we didn't get it Mitsume ga Toru also is another that gets spendy I'm figuring out where I'll go with it as that one is fun.
You have a solid list, some of them the really small 32/64K sized stuff I have on my multicarts. I'm working on a deal for Hammerin' Harry 1 at the moment along with Parodius.
I have some of those games in there too that are on US carts like Bonk so I don't see a reason to get redundant again, even with the small differences stuff like Contra has. I'd be tempted to snap up Castlevania 3 even if I can't hear the audio entirely because of the other things but price would be a factor.
