@Xyphon22 If you're not sold on Castlevaina, you should check out the Nintendo Life review for Monster World IV. It's an action RPG similar to games like Faxanadu but with more puzzles and platforming.

I'd heard of that game but didn't know much about it. The review sounds good except for being too easy which I don't like that much. Would it be better to play the earlier games first, and which ones because I think they all have multiple versions on the VC, don't they?

I don't know which in the series is best. I only have Wonder Boy in Monster World and Monster World IV. It wouldn't have bothered me to start with IV. Too easy? Yeah I could see that. It's certainly not going to give you the challenge of Ecco or La~Mulana, but some puzzles had me stumped for a bit and I had trouble at the fire boss because I decided not to buy the first sword upgrade I found (that was a mistake). It's a great ride while it lasts (about twelve hours) but once it's over that's it. Very little replay value. I'd say it was worth it but you might want a lengthier game.

Do you all think that it would be worth getting Yoshi's Island on the VC even if iv'e played it to death on the GBA version and now have it as an ambassador title as well?

You can get Monster World IV (i love it), Castlevania III and Rondo of Blood (both are excellent), Ristar, Shining Force, Lords of Thunder and Y´s.

Is the Ys Book 1&2 on VC the same as the Legacy of Ys 1&2 on DS?

Legacy of Ys has updated graphics, "updated" sound, redone cutscenes, possibly a better translation (not that it matters, the story is Zelda-level IIRC), and some added multiplayer.

Y´s from DS is a remake of Y´s of Turbografx. Both are great, but i preffer the remake by the graphics.

@RainbowCrasher There are Mega Drive games similar to ALttP and Super Metroid. Beyond Oasis and Monster World IV. But I'd choose A Link to the Past first and foremost.

Moster World IV - 900 Points
A Link To The Past - 800 Points
Super Metroid - 800 Points

If you do have 100 left over, that'll leave you with 600. You could look for a TG-16 game. Or, you know, save it for next time.

Tough one. Mega Man 2 and Castlevania are very fair games, but that doesn't change the fact that they're hard as rock. Even two of my favorite games, Blaster Master and StarTropics, can be incredibly cheap at times. There's always Kirby's Adventure, though, which is pretty easy, but I think all Kirby games have their cheap moments just to remind you that you can die. Super Mario Bros. is a safe bet I guess. It's rarely cheap, and only moderately difficult. I made it to world 6 normally before I hit a rough spot (don't hesitate on the rope platforms!) and I suck at platformers.

Super Mario Bros. 3 is probably your best bet as it is in my opinion the very best game on the NES.
