There is a new Castlevania game coming out on the PS2, woooooooooo :D Are the gameboy advance castlevania's any good? I loved SOTN on the psx. |

I loved Symphony of the Night. The new one is being developed by the same team, so expect more of the same spectre-slaying goodness. The GBA Castlevanias have received rave reviews and everyone I've talked to seems to be in agreement.. I was a little let down myself though. They're like watered down versions of their Playstation counterpart - A step back in both options and replayability, not to mention the obvious loss of graphical detail. I realize the PS is a much more capable system than the Gameboy Advance but comparisons are inevitable. But don't take my word for it! |

Just bought my mom a GBSP and Pocket Shanghai for her birthday... great little machine. My kids both have a GBA each and they play the hell out of those games, even the old Gameboy games I had when it first came out in 1990. |

I've never really been into handheld gaming, I much prefer to play my games on a big tv screen with the better graphics and such the consoles are capable of...and if I was considering getting an Sp, I would realise that I could buy 2 console games for that price and quickly lose the idea. I would like to play the castlevania games, however... It's a bit of a shame how the new Castevania is 3d don't you think Cabbog? I think it's one of those series that should remain 2d...I always thought of Castlevania when I played devil may cry though so they might pull it off, we'll see... |
||||||||

|
|
They're making the move to 3d? I had no idea. The last time they tried to do that the results turned out to be pretty mediocre - Or so I've heard. I've never actually played the N64 one, just looked at the case in the store and imagined how crappy it was. |

The N64 Castlevanias are pretty solid, not bad at all. Don't trust your imagination. Nowhere near Symphony or 3 or anything... but what IS? |

Although the official XLT sex-symbol appreciates your humble offering, his ancient 28.8 modem prevents him from indulging in such things. If you really want to impress me, locate a picture of Birdo* and post it here in the thead. *Nintendo trivia |

Have at you! P.S. Anyone could have got that shot you wimp.. Get me a scan from an instruction/guide book, then I'll be impressed. |

I'll tell you one thing, that mouth of his/her's raises a tent in my pants faster than a pack of Weblos in a rainstorm. Have mercy! |

The soft white underbelly does it for me... I wonder what's under there. |

"He thinks he is a girl" My mom wouldn't let me play Mario 2 when I was little because of that. No joke. |

|
|
where do the eggs come from if it's a boy? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
His inner egg factory, silly. It's his own undoing though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yet it enabled him to make millions in the omelet industry |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha, great avatar. And an interesting question! My guess is that they're not really eggs at all - probably derived from some sort of protein build-up in his/her belly and when alarmed, the substance is hacked up into the mouth where it's shaped into the perfect ovoid we see hurled through the air. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What I want to know is how Birdo can fire an (seemingly) uncooked egg right after he spits a fireball - wouldn't he be firing an omlette at least? :) And besides, wtf is so deadly about an egg? Mario/Luigi should catch that bitch in a frying pan and serve that sucker up! |
||||||||

The world of Nintendo is a vast and mysterious place.. I just picked up Super Puzzle Fighter II for my mommy - seems Tetris Worlds was a bad egg and this is the next best thing.. It's actually pretty entertaining considering who I bought it for. I like the way you can play 2-player on the same GBA, the button setup is accomodating and works suprisingly well. It's also a lot of fun watching two Street Fighter midgets squeal in Japanese as they beat each other's faces in. |

He he, someone has been on their little one's machine :) It's a her BTW. I have an old NMS somewher ethat features a large picture of it with a red bow and long eyelashes. Not that that means anything in these confused times :) |

This case will have to remain unsolved until his/her return to the drag strip in the new Mario Kart. The 128 bit graphics will hopefully allow for closer and final speculation. |

I also bought Lunar: Legend - an RPG derived from the Sega CD and Playstation series(never played or heard of any of them). I was going to get Breath of Fire II but the clerk insisted I get this.. It's good old-fashioned RPG madness. There's a handful of grammatical errors every sentence and random battles pop up in 7 second intervals. "They call them Dragon Diamonds but they are my turd" They call them translators but they are my ass. How the hell does something like this slip by? How hard is it to make a decent translation? Also: Why do Japanese people make such horribly uninspiring music? They always ruin the most poignant moments in their videogames\movies with something that sounds like an excerpt from 'The Gay Man's Guide to Safer Sex'. Oriental people need to grow more facial hair and bigger balls. |

-Other than that it's pretty good though. |

Why does this happen? When there's so much riding on the success of a videogame, how could something so stupid be overlooked?? It makes me wants to stab someone hard and run away. |
||||||||
|

Japanese humor also comes off as... rather strange after translation. But I love those little people anyway! |

Jayworth, we should move in together. Think of what we could accomplish: My brilliance and magnetism paired with your wit and highspeed modem capabilities - the sky's the limit baby! |

I'm in total compliance, but I need to have the top bunk. And man, all of the women we'd pull... I feel like I'm getting laid just thinking about it. I really want to use your GBA SP, too. |
||||||||

Hell yeah! We could both be getting it on while I kick your ass at Street Fighter II Special Turbo Championship Edition Deluxe. Seriously, we're going to rock the house off it's fucking foundation. We'll have to lay down a new layer of plastic each morning.. Or we could leave it bare, allowing us to reminisce over stains later on. Any way you look at it, it's awesome. |

You can put other stuff on there, video, music, etc. I have a .Mod player, a prototype OS, Nes emulator (+82 roms!), Spectrum 48K emulator etc. for mine... |

Jesus, it took you long enough! My leaves were starting to wilt.. So you've dealt with them before? They're reputable? |

Well, I can't remember the firm I bought mine from, but any of the larger ones (sadly Lik Sang no longer carry them) should be okay. |

What? They don't come out until june though. Once I get my flash cart I'm going to send it to you so you can copy all your tubular awesomeness on to it for me. Deal? The GBA cartridge format is universal right? |
