What do I consider a good game?

I consider a good game any game that I enjoy.

What do you consider a good console or add-on? A Sega CD, 32X, Saturn? So on and so on....

I know you said that they would have excellent focus on the GC, but it seems like you contradicted yourself when you said that Nintendo would bring the good games to GBA.

You didn\'t say "some" or something along the lines of that, but the. It might just be me, but when you said "the" it looked as if you meant all. Of course you could have meant "the" as in the games that we were talking about.

Also, I don\'t recall saying anything about the 2-d or 3-d counterparts of Nintendo\'s games.

If I did, then I apologize.


Before anyone can respond, we must first establish the definition of the word "the."  :D

yea i hear that

i would love to have Secret of Mana or maybe even the previously unreleased ,in the US, sequel and especially TiT - that game ruled - i remember staying up very late playing with my friend - dang that game ruled


Hell yah, there were so many good Turtles games way back when and now they are neglected because they have to do with an old dead fad.  TiT was awesome, but so was Turtles 2 the arcade game and the original Turtles from Konami\'s "Ultra" line.  I still remember defusing all the bombs under water by the dam in that game.  Heh, the Turtles 2D fighter was pretty damn decent too.  Now I kinda wanna pull my SNES out and whoop some ass!

i will get it just for SMB3..(better not change it in any way)....i did not spend hours on this game..more like years:eek:....seriously when you think about it...this game is one of the 3 greatest games of all time on any platform(it\'s true it\'s true).....i still remember the first time i played the game like it was yesterday(more like 10 years ago)....the graphics were mind blowing(heh back then)....this game is perfect..what is wrong with it?...nothing.

microsoft underestimates nintendo because they only look at GCN....man will they get a hell of a reality call when the GBA sells millions and millions and millions of GCN\'s....hehehe can\'t wait:D

GCN+GBA=NO WAY in hell xbox can sell this xmas:D

. I\'ve said it before and I\'ll say it again, in terms of ingenuity, exclusivity, and console competition, X-Box brings nothing to the table except a fat wad of cash and some rehashed PC components wrapped with a DC controller and a plastic black box.----RYU

It has F-Zero = Hawke must have one.

It will have Castlevania = Hawke would go as far as kill someone to get one (though, probably he\'ll use money again).

Finally a handheld that will truly ROCK! Freakin\' A! :D

For anyone who doubted me- Here is the article where Miyamoto states that his teams are almost completely focused on GameCube.

In my personal opinion, the GBA is getting the excellent games. 2D games are my favorite, so that would be why I think that. F-ZERO, Mario 3, Yoshi\'s Island and a brand spankin\' new Castlevania?!? I\'m sorry those games have me way more excited then a FPS version of Metriod (gag!) or another 3D Mario, even though Mario 64 kicked ass, I can\'t help but wish there would of been a true 2D Mario platform game for the console (and no the Yoshi game doesn\'t count).

Don\'t spam. If you don\'t having anything positive to say then don\'t reply.

Who wants old wussy games? See the names of the people who replied.

Please refrain from replying.

Those "old wussy games" have more gameplay and replay value then any PS title, no offense. Super Mario World and Mario 3 sucked out countless hours of my life...

I\'ve decided to bring my thread back from the dead because GBA has a lot of great stuff going on for it right now and people will post multiple topics about it for various reasons. But why not just discuss them here? In the "official GBA thread"! Please refrain from knocking the cornyness in that line...

Here\'s some pretty interesting news:

-GBA has sold out already which means it has a user-base of 1.1 MILLION people. I expect the Japanese top ten to be owned by GBA now...

-The new Megaman game seems to have some promise despite being completely different than any other Mega Man game.  http://pocket.ign.com/news/32668.html

-A totally new and original Metroid game is underway. http://pocket.ign.com/news/32668.html

-Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 is getting some very positive feelings from IGN. It would appear that this games plays almost exactly like the console versions which is a VERY GOOD thing. That means its another must have title for GBA(how many is that?). http://pocket.ign.com/news/32741.html

Here\'s a pic.



Man with all the great things happening with GBA how can anyone possibly NOT want one? I\'m still looking forward to GameCube more than GBA but it will still be a revolutionary handheld device. So what are some of your opinions on all this magnificant details?


BTW-is everything ok with this being the primary GBA thread?

Another thing you might want to know about THPS 2 is that the character model is made up of 300 polygons (mario in mario 64 was 700), but has no textures. But, since hes so small on the screen, there hardly any if any.

 Also, I can\'t wait for the brand new Metroid--Super Metroid was AWESOME. I think the GBA will be a great system for it too... widescreen for looking forward and backward more in the tunnels... l and r buttons for... etc...
 
  Also, Rare is said to be working on a secret GBA game that even blows THPS 2 and Rayman away! (Their GBA programmers use Assembly, not C, so its a lot faster and you can push the hardware a lot more). They say that one of the people programming the game made the original technology for the awesome DKC games on the SNES. mmmmmmm...
