Found two old Nintendo Gameboys in the attic. So I bought a new case from ebay. Time for repair and refurbish! There's a hair dryer trick for repairing the lcd. Just ordered the backlight mod from ebay. |

Of the oldies I had the GB, GG, and Lynx (though that was borrowed). I adored my GB, but secretly lusted over a turbo grafx or whatever it was they were called. Import only. |

Gameboy was wicked, simple graphics but maximum gameplay you should get a game called monster max umbro, its like knightlore but for the gameboy |
||||||||
|
|

I really wanted a lynx, still wouldn't mind one now, I had a game gear which was decent but you could only ever really play it plugged into the wall. |

though Monster Max was ostensibly released in late 1994, Titus was very slow in destributing it and copies of the game could not be bought until December 1995. As a result, sales for the game were poor.[2] Despite this, it received extremely positive reviews.[2] UK's GB Action magazine gave Monster Max a rating of 94%, while Super Gamer magazine awarded it a rating of 96% under the tagline, "simply the best Game Boy title ever". I think its a failry rare game |

The first game I ever completed was super Mario land on GB. I was on a plane. |
||||||||
|
|

Got it :) I cheated and completed it on my hacked DS with save states |
||||||||

Rem loving the music to Parodius. All classics of classical music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I was just watching parodius video, I think the pc engine version would be great |

Did you know universal soldier is based on turrican 2? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, you mean its more or less a reskin with a license to sell more games? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wish it was the real t2 on gameboy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
imagine a turrican 2 remaster, same graphics, smoother controls and more parallax background sprites and background |
||||||||

Seems like a good thread to ask, has anyone used the cheaper chinese knock of everdrive cartridges here? Thinking of getting one for my megadrive |

ordered some good gba games that are in 3d lego drome racers star x iridion ii Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed Top gear rally super monkey ball jr hotwheels stunt track challenge and a 150 in 1 cart with nes emulator |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
nice one, you should do capsule reviews on here of what you play |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

lego drome racers hotwheels stunt track challenge both games have lush 3d graphics (for gba). reminds me of atari st and amiga 3d graphics of a game like hunter or 3d construction kit. star x reminds me of starwing/starfox on the snes. only with better graphics and framerate. iridion ii shoot 'em up game with gorgeous graphics for gba. Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed Top gear rally both games suffer graphically because they use textures instead of flat shaded sprites. super monkey ball jr reminds me of an amiga/atari st attempt at graphics with higher frame rate . good gameplay. |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|
|
nice reviews, whats you favourite purchase so far? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

iridion ii is the coolest, looks great like a ps1 game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztBqI3UvIs0& |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not to be confused with iridion 3d, which is not as good |
||||||||
|
