vodstock - at this point in time, I agree.

clown - I almost agree with you on that one, the game TOTALLY changed the look, style of game, and play/combat system, yet still managed to "feel" like a zelda game. I liked it a lot.
Hall of fame...? dunno about that. It WAS good though.

Back to the gba for a sec, I've already mentioned this as a good point, but thought about it some more....and it's a good point for more than one reason. The oldskool games thing....not only is this cool to be able to play some of the stuff I spent my early teens playing, but I think it's awesome that y'know, the kids of today get to play 'em too....the 16-bit and 80's-90's arcade era was IMO the best.
The system has some excellent old games like double dragon, mario world, final fight, earthworm jim and blackthorne (still waiting for flashback....)and breath of fire 1 & 2, and I'm actually quiet impressed also with the amount of (WORTH PLAYING) new titles out there, such as: Golden sun 1 & 2, Advance wars, the new castlevania titles, sonic advance 1 & 2...and many more.
Very good system.
For those that can afford one, I'd reccomend it. For those that cant, I'd reccomend talking to your local pirate, to see if he can get you an emulator and collection of the first 1300 gba titles on cd, like I did...true, there was only 368 games left after I eliminated the duplicates and non-english titles, but still well worth the $10 AUD I paid for it....you guys can pm me if you can't find anyone else to do it for ya, I guess....

btw - what the fuck is a wonderswan?]

also, anybody ever play an atari jaguar? they were GOING TO come out here a few years back, I thought they looked great, but they never started selling 'em....what was this cool-ass looking system like?
