So, where do I post about my latest DS purchase? Is that now regarded as retro or is there a dedicated thread?

Are they really stopping DS games cause isnt the 3DS backwards compatible?

As far as I'm aware they'll continue to support the DS until the 3DS is in full swing.

Just got a brand new Player's Choice copy of Mario Kart Super Circuit for GBA (gotta love Amazon.com). Love it, but it's taking some gettin' used to. Seems to play more like Super Mario Kart than more recent Mario Karts. Interesting way of unlocking bonus tracks (the tracks from Super Mario Kart). Apparently have to get first place on all cups in one class, then go back, play a cup and get collect 100 coins. It was the one Mario Kart I didn't have, so feel I've completed a collection now (at least until Mario Kart 3DS is out ).

Let's attack aggressively, kupo! :D

@Starlight re: Megadrive Outrun, well, you cant 'drift' like in the arcade or on the Saturn due to the lack of analogue control (though as in the arcade, specific corners will automatically cause you to skid more than others).

It's a slightly simpler game as a result but still fun with a number of difficulty levels, decent music, well draw sprites and runs pretty smooth overall (in 60Hz at least). Also replicates the Japanese arcade version in the layout and ordering of courses, so no option to play the US / EU arrangement.

Cool. Thanks for the output...I actually perfer the Japanese layout as it doesn't have those boards in the middle of the road at the beginning. D:

Why not wait for the VC version? Which will probably be cheaper if the game is rare?

just bought TMNT 1-2-3 for NES Nintendo. Ran through TMNT 1, looking forward to 2 and never played 3. Good times with the NES Nintendo.

Your 'ran' through TMNT 1? Dude that game slays me everytime I make it to the final stage.....I blame it on piss poor game design. It's one of the rare few games I gave up on like Blaster Master. Anyways, I picked up TMNT 1, 2, 3 last year for a killer deal on eBay and they were all fantastic condition. TMNT II is one of my favorite NES games, yet I too haven't played the third. I mean I feel kind of disconected with it, because the enemies seem to be from the later seasons(after 3)of the TMNT cartoons, and when I was a kid was all about Season 1 - 3.

Yeah, TMNT 3:The Manhattan Project was pretty good not as good as TMNT 2. The level designs were different enough and were pretty fun but yeah they seemed to borrow stuff from different parts of the TMNT universe like Tokka, Rahzar and Super Shredder from the second movie and a few characters like Ground Chuck and Dirtbag from the figures that came out around that time. The biggest WTF moment was Bebop and that ball and chain he had on his head. But yeah it could have been alot worst.

I'm hoping to pick up Pokemon Crystal today at the local half price books. They are an AWESOME place to find old games/systems. I got my Genesis there for 16 bucks!
