Banjo kazooie WAS better than mario 64. It had better graphics better soundtrack(i think) and most of all the gameplay was killer. You could get louds more power-ups than the 3 in mario AND there were much better bosses than the whole kill the same guy (bowser) three times thing. Banjo tooie was even better the graphics really showed of how powerful the N64 was plus you could get even more power-ups and there was loads more secrets to be found. M64 gets tired after awhile espeicialy if you have it on the DS. BUT I guess we will never see this on the VC cause of the new one coming to the X-Box 360. In fact I think there is probely a bigger chance of this coming out on X-Box live arcade than the VC.

Hay anyone know if they will release sonic 3 and sonic and knuckles sepratly, or toghether as origanly planned in development?

And answering your question BJ I would say that any sonic game in the 16 bit era was completly in competion to any mario game out there including SMW

NAH.... not as good as 3. 3 had more depth, more levels and (I think) better bonus rounds
I'd call this game a stepping stone from 1-3
but still an excellent game:)

DAMN! so does that mean no Banjo?

Damn!
still holdin out for yoshi story that game was under appreciated.
and anyone know anymore on that whole RARE-Nintendo thing?
cause banjo kazooie ROCKED.

Ther havin problems with the 60Hz mode ESPECAILY for Europe. Enemys disapering, flour turning the wrong colour that certa thing

MASTERPIECE!!!! can't beat this one on the zelda front. Anyone else think it's better than the 3d games? and if ya think about it TP is pretty much the same game as Oot and it gets kinda borin after a while. But this game is addictive can't stop playin for ages...... god damn death mountain... -_-

Hey I just down loaded this and I gotta say:

four stars!

pfft! Four stars my ass!

This game deserves five stars easy. It's amazing, the graphics for the MD are amazing. I mean holy cow there aint an MD game out there to beat it and the game play KILLS gunstar easy. Gunstar is kiddy, Vectorman is bad ass all the way. The music in places can be pretty funky too. Please people don't over look this game cause of the four star review. This game rocks the gates of hell it's that good. This game plays as if you gave mario a semi automatic, a bucket of prozak and sent him on his way. Plus i'd say it looks like the "gears of war" for it's time and thers no deniying that game kicked ass. Please download this game your missin out otherwise.

PS. Did I mention he's made of green balls?

A little birdy told me of a big thing goin down for Europe's big 100

ME thinks Yoshi story;-)

I ALSO hear Ninty havin some problems portin certain games to run on the emaulaters such as...awwwww I don't know maybe SUPER METROID!

You know, I don't understand why people bitch every time they don't get a big hitter on the VC I mean come on Nintendo have to spread out the games over the wii's 5+ year cycle so of coarse your not going to get a "super mario world" every week.

Also Zelda II isn't half as bad as the three Zelda CD-I games

pfft! worst Zelda game my ass ;D

SNES better graphics, better games, better controller. Never owned a Mega D but Comix Zone Rocks on the VC

I never played this game before downloaded it on the vc and OH MY GOD! this game is amazing! I bought the classic controller just for this cause the game cube layout is messed UP!
