Anything good and F!ed-up, like the movies Fight Club, Pulp Fiction, and this game, I want. Will be getting it once I get my new job, cuz then I can afford a TV.
"Bio Miracle." Bio makes me think of the poisonous spell in the FF series, and that makes me think of dirty diapers considering the main character is a baby. Eww.
From what I remember playing this on an emulator a few years back, it was a very cool game. If you're not into RTs type games, you mgiht want to pass on this. Otherwise, it's worth the points.
A very interesting game but quite difficult. Unless you have a list of what each jellybean does, it's lots of time consuming trial and error. Still well worth 500 points IMO.
One game I never got to play but always wanted to. Now I have that chance. I know for a fact I'm gonna love it. Love Nintendo, Mario, Square, and RPG's. Right up my alley.
It's about time. I'm glad I made a new friend down the street who has a nice flat-screen TV so I can now go to their place, download this, and play. AWESOME GAME!
About stinking time. Although I have he collection for another system, the Mega Man series is one of my favorites and for good reason. I totally agree with the 4-star rating, but when MM2 comes out, I'd be surprised to see anyone in their right mind give it less than 5 stars. Mega Man just rocks. If you like platformers and/or haven't played MM before, 500 points is pocket lint considering the coolnes of this game, so pick it up!
This is horrid news. Such a classic would earn bank for Nintendo and Capcom, but I understand it's just not in the works. There are still other ways to play it.....
WOW! I'm kinda glad I don't currently have a TV, because if I had one I would have expected to downloaded Y's and not gotten it. I would have been livid!
About time! Too bad I don't have a TV anymore. Stil I wil go to my friends house with my Wii, download this, and play it there for a hours. Finally I can sleep a little easier knowingthis game is finally ready to download.
It's about stinking time they brought Y's to the table (well, it's almost here.) Now al I gotta do is get a TV in the next couple of weeks. I've been dying to play Y's again forever, and finally I will get to. Even if I have to take my Wii to my friends house just to download the game and save it til I get a TV I will. My appetite fothis game has finally been quenched for a bit, but still can't wait to play it again.
Cheez, It's prolly more of a 3-4 star game for you, but for us old-scool Y's fans, it's 5 stars all day and night long. Yeah, the game play is kinda boring having to bump into creatures to "fight" them, but the music is top-notch. For it's day, the music and voiced cut-scenes made this game shine. This will always be in my heart as one of my top-10 favorite games of all time.
Mickey, I have an extra mouse cuz I use a trackball. As for the computer, next time your in the market, try building your own. You can save money if you shop around, and the pride you get from doing it is awesome!
I'm actually still hlding onto my Wii for the sake of this game. I don't even own a TV anymore (gave it to the ex, it was an old tube TV). Still, I'm holdng on to my Wii for this game unless I desperately need the cash. Hurry up Nintendo and give us this game.
This sux so bad. My main gripe is that Y's book I & II have been on there forever and have yet to be released. I wish they'd hurry things up. I WANT MY Y'S!!!!!
This doesn't sem to apeal to me at all. Maybe I'll see if one of my friends will download it first and then I'll check it out. I know you can't knock it til ya try it, but I can think of other games to play for 500 points.
The review is spot on, and this game is probably about the best $10 I've spent on anything, EVER. This game is just so much fun and a breath of fresh air, pun intended.
Only played it a bit on emulator. Didn't get hooked but knew it had potential. Besides, all of these raving mad fans in here can't be wrong. I WILL cough up the money for this game, then cour the web for a walkthough.
I don't care if it's firmware of an HDD, I like the idea. It's about time they address this issue. Hard to put all of those old TG-16 CD games on there even with a 2GB memory card (well, at least all the ones I have plus ones I've yet to own.)
OMG! This is a classic piece of NES awesomness. You will not go worng with this download. There is some slowdown and times when the game can't process all that's going on (things start to flicker a bit) but it's still so awesome. At 500 points you need to pick this game up! Like it said above, if you like sports and River City Ransom, you will love this.
Looks like another shooter I will get even if for nostalgic laugh factor. The graphics almost remind me of the Valis games, which also need a VC release. Is the music in this game worth listening to?
Jogurt, I think he was refering to the fact we got hosed for only getting one game, instead of 2-3 like we used to. They need to hurry up and bring out Y's I+II before I have a stinkin' coronary.
This was one of the games I tried to play as a kid cuz I loved the arcade. It sucked miserably. Even then, I also had this competitive issue that I had to beat every game I played. This was one I never beat, and haven't lost a wink of sleep over it. Save the 500 points on this and another horible NES VC release for a good N64 game. This game is only for the nostalgic (not even the morbidly curious this time.)
IMO this is the best Castlevania next to Symphony of the Night. I've played the NES ones, this, SotN, and one of the GB Advance ones. This game is just awesome. Even if a bit easy at times, the graphics, music, and details really pull you into this enjoyable game. This might not be the best VC game on here at the moment, but it's up there! The VC needs to get the one that was released on the Turbo Duo in Japan (Castlevania X I think?)
One of the d**n best and d**n hardest games out there. It's downright fun whether you beat it or get frustrated and give up. Beat the heck out of it as a kid when you could rent one game a weekend and just play til you fell over. Now with all the new games and nostalgia like this, frustration makes you put it down for 6 months. By then you are all rusty and have to play 8 hours just to get back up to being how good you were those 6 months ago, just to repeat the cycle. I love this game!
The hardest Ninja Gaiden game due to only 5 continues. Still, as excellent as the other two if not better. NG2 is by far my favorite, but this one shows that they made three great games in a trilogy. NG is one of the best platformers ever IMO. Love the cinematics.
Love the back story. The music on the demo video up top seems interesting if not repetitive (makes you want to go psycho.) Never the less I've always been a shooter fan since the Turbo showed me how good they were, and for only 600, I could download worse. If this is better than Monster Lair, it's money well spent. I still have to get soldier blade and R-Type though. Blazing Lasers and the Thunder titles were downloaded the day of release for me. Shmups FTW!
About time! This is a no-brainer. I'll be getting it right after work and playing it til I absolutely have to do other meaningful things, like eat and homework. This is a shooter that must be experienced. Joy!
About time they ring out the big guns. This is my favorite shooter, ever! The graphics, sound, gameplay, and osses are abbsolutely phenominal. Whether you are a shooter fan or not, this game can't be passed up considering the price. Unless you absolutely hate shooters, this game is a must have! I just can't wait!
