Re: US VC Releases - 17th December - Cybernator

JNoodles

Alien Storm is a great game if you have more than one person willing to play with you while Monster Lair is great for about 2 minutes and then gets ultra repetitive.

Re: Ghosts 'n Goblins

JNoodles

*yawn* This is very, very hard. It's worse than the likes of Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts! I'd say wait for Demon's Crest to play as that annoying Red Arremer. It'll be worth the wait! Why did I add this? Because Drake reminded me of it in that update of his today about the US VC Releases! (I'm getting Pokemon Snap soon...)

Re: Wii Gift feature out now in EU and US

JNoodles

So then... I can finally send Ninja Gaiden to my friend so he can see how awesome it is and stop making jokes about "GAIden" even though it is not (I think it isn't...) pronounced gay-den but guy-den. XD Sending him Solomon's Key wouldn't hurt either.

Re: Wave Race 64

JNoodles

I wrote the review before I played the VC version. It would normally be a good game but the controls are horridly unresponsive if you play them with a GameCube controller (and I don't own a classic controller). So... 1 STAR.

Re: EU VC Releases - 7th December - Sega Week

JNoodles

Predictions for December 10, 2007 NA Releases:

Pokemon Snap - N64 (Confirmed)
Light Crusader - MD/Genesis
Monster Lair - TurboGrafx-16

Which one should I get out of these three if they DO come out though? Right now I'm leaning towards Pokemon Snap.

Re: Pokemon Snap

JNoodles

I agree that this game is like any other Pokemon spin-off. You buy it, play it for an hour or so, and beat it. Oh yeah, I hear Pokemon Battle Revolution is that way too since it boasts ZERO exploration.

Unlike Battle Revolution (I suppose, I never really played it), Pokemon Snap is pure fun. No doubt that Snap will be better than ever with the new Wii Message Board functionality!

Re: The Virtual Console Archive is One Today!

JNoodles

Ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-YAY! Finally one year old! I remember the days when you all just wrote reviews and added star ratings before the game comes out! Yup, that's when the site was in beta. The good old days of being 0 years and 1 day old. ^_^

Re: US VC Releases - 8th October - Neo Geo Week

JNoodles

I'm tried and tired of whining about games.

There is ALWAYS next week unless its the end of the world. In which case, get a life and stop worrying about the VC! Besides, this week isn't so bad. Download Fatal Fury and see how good it really is.

Also about RPGs, we will eventually get some. See, with NeoGeo, we already have our friend Samurai Shodown RPG on board eventually! And for SNES, it had a myriad of RPGs. Sure we have only one right now but you can rest assured we'll AT LEAST see Super Mario RPG soon.

Re: Zanac

JNoodles

It looks pretty good but considering we have three of the Star Soldiers, Blazing Lazers, Galaga, Galaga '90, StarFox 64/Lylat Wars, Sin and Punishment, Xevious, Ordyne, Gradius, Gradius II (soon enough), Gradius III and so on... it seems unneeded.

Re: Art of Fighting

JNoodles

This game is somewhat difficult. Although, this game does have more than one special move per fighter right? I remember the SNES versions being really, really bad.

Re: Samurai Shodown

JNoodles

Games with TOO MUCH BLOOD are overexaggerative. Its too bad, Samurai Shodown would've be an awesome game. 2/5 from me.

The Last Blade is better in all basic fighting game aspects BTW.

Re: World Heroes

JNoodles

That is funny, there is only one shadow that is shared by the characters. World Heroes doesn't look too thrilling as Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting has already come out.

Re: SMB: The Lost Levels removed from EU Wii Shop

JNoodles

Seems like a MUST GET RIGHT AWAY title for the USA then. I'll get it right away once the Hanabi Festival hits my country. Hopefully we'll have a bit of a variety against the EU/AU Festival though.

As in, replace Sin and Punishment with something like Custom Robo 64 or Doshin the Giant, Mario's Super Picross with Mario and Wario etc.

Re: Breath of Fire II

JNoodles

Picked this game up last Saturday on the Shop Channel not knowing what I'd get myself into. Surprisingly, I found this to be great fun. Its second place VC RPG material! As Paper Mario is first, obviously...

Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - October 2007

JNoodles

Things US and EU don't have that are awesome:

Famicom/NES:
Famicom Tantei Club Part I
River City Ransom

Super Famicom/SNES:
Cybernator

Genesis/Mega Drive:
Alien Soldier
Sonic 3D Blast

TurboGrafx-6/PC-Engine/TurboGrafx-CD:
Ys Book I & II
Cho Aniki (Despite all looks)
Gradius II

NeoGeo:
Samurai Shodown
Art of Fighting
Blue's Journey

Re: Yoshi's Story

JNoodles

I HONESTLY love this game. My advice: GET IT NOW! I already gave this 5 stars, I just needed to say this again.

Re: Samurai Ghost

JNoodles

Looks intersting but for some reason, I'm thinking this game will be rated two-three stars at most.

Re: Wave Race 64

JNoodles

Really, really nice water racing game. Although, are their many?

Really, really nice racing game in general. K there.

Re: Sword of Vermillion

JNoodles

...This game is the worst RPG I have ever played. (No, I have not played Double Dungeons and never intend to as of now)

Re: Star Soldier

JNoodles

Ah, once again, a game whose sales were massively depleted due to bad timing; tisk, tisk. Still, it is good enough.

Re: Dungeon Explorer

JNoodles

Urk... this game is so very hard. It is meant for 5 players and 5 players only! It is enjoyable till you hit about the 3 minute mark in regular mode.

Re: ActRaiser

JNoodles

This is one of the best 'Platformer Sims' available. (If there are any others!)

Re: Paper Mario

JNoodles

Ok.... I have no doubt in my mind Paper Mario is coming out in late June-early July in both NA and EU. <br> <br>I was really into this game. I beat it almost fifteen times! Through a bad turn of events, (house burnt down) I haven't played Paper Mario for a long, long time folks. <br> <br>And the demanding $60+ price on eBay! Thank goodness my prediction WILL come true!

Re: Paper Mario

JNoodles

I was waaaaaaaaay overwhelmed when I played it! In my opinion Paper Mario = best Mario RPG. (And yes, I have played SMRPG)
