The first thing I said when I saw that box a couple of years back was "Who would want to go their anyways? With my luck Medusa Heads would probably knock me out of the castle".
Aren't Kappa's supposed to frighten children. I wrote a report about them for school once and it was rather umm... not child appropriate. Anywho this can stay in Japan.
@ Kultist #211 Deja Vu I wouldn't mind, but Uninvited creeps me the (insert naughty word that rhymes with duck here) out. Its kinda funny how I love to play modern Survival Horror games, yet an 8-bit game can creep me out so much I can't even sleep at night (Heck, I still have nightmares about that southern bell ghost).
I never did see the hate for Zelda II, You're basically all set if you level all your stats to four at the beginning of the game. Also, I'm pretty sure the fanboys will find something else to whine about. CoughsecretofmanaCough.
Cho Aniki is gonna be a day one purchase for me. I'm not to sure about getting Final Soldier (Mainly because I'm horrible at vertical shooters), but I'll definitely give it a shot when I have more points.
I already own Mana, but I'll probably buy it again anyway (mainly because the final boss fight glitches out on me every time I get there. Mario Golf is a pleasant surprise though.
Bunch of games I'm willing to try this month (If only I had the money). Btw is Y's pronounced like the letter E (the way I've been saying it) or is it just the letter Y.
@ Rexy Yeah, SMB2 (Doki Doki) was hands down the easiest Mario game in the bunch. Although it did take me quite a while to figure out that you didn't need to jump on the veggies to catch them during the Wart fight.
I for one have been wanting this game so as soon as I come across ten bucks I'm downloading it because: A) Its really the only giant monster wrestling game done right . B) Its got a co-op and vs mode. C) Its a hell of a lot of fun.
Really solid game. The music is fantastic, controls nicely, and it adds a strategic element of what weapon to use and where it is most effective. My only complaint is the first boss is laughably easy.
This game ain't tough enough for me. I actually play this quite often despite it not being that great. I really like the music though, sounds kinda like an 8 bit version of the Stray Cats.
2 stars seems a bit low IMO. This game is alot of fun when you have a couple of people around to create a course and then play it to see who lasts the longest.
I was hoping for the SNES version (I hate the Pokemon anime, I like the games though) but I've been craving some puzzle action so I'll take whatever I can.

All I played was Boundish, Dotstream, Orbital, and Dialhex. Liked them all too. Haven't played the others though.
#13

I hope Boundish is going to be their next choice for the Art Style games. Its a really fun little pong clone with 5 different modes.
