I lost interest in the VC service a long time ago, but for people who are still eagerly awaiting titles like Megaman X and Super Mario Kart this release schedule can be really aggravating.

One question Corbie: does it enter sleep mode when you close the DS lid? That saves a lot of energy whenever you want to set an alarm. If I recall correctly; this wasn't the case with the AC clock, rendering it even more useless.

Dammit, I only have 100 points left.

Kain as a traitor? Well, I'll be!

When my server's crashing down and it hurts inside...

I will download...nothing. I am a real European. Fight for the rights of every man.

Esposch: Partners in Time was a bit of a letdown to me after the superb SS. Less mini-games, not nearly as funny supporting characters (though they will fix that with 3) and more focus on basic action. The only time I had to 'grind' was during the final palace though, that's what I like about these games.

I hope it comes out before my summer break. Wouldn't want to play something like Chrono Trigger in Greece. Not that there's anything wrong with that..

Reminds me of Kirby Canvas Curse and (to a lesser extent) Okami.

I only have a black original GBA but I still regularly use it for old Gameboy (Color) games. I mainly use the DS phat for GBA games. Funny how it goes.

Machu: I'm really tired of people using that crutch in general. I've never played Guitar Hero but I can understand it's broad appeal to the masses. Think of it as a way to make it accessible for people who are fond of music, so they can eventually make the leap toward Ibanez guitars or other brands. It sounds like another hardcore versus casuals topic and we've had enough of those.

Machu: Why don't you go take some fencing lessons instead of playing animu otaku kawaii crap such as No More Heroes?

Catch my drift?

That's some hilarious box-art.

I'll laugh my ... off when they release Bayou Billy or something equally poo-y as the 300th vc game next week.

Finished the game. While the graphics and sound hold up very well, I'm not convinced about the other aspects of the game. The combat is incredibly repetitive and you have to grind a lot. This is my own fault, since I loathe the concept of grinding in general and I should've looked up more info about the game. It doesn't make for a compelling experience in my eyes. I'll just have to play it in short bursts I suppose. I can see why people loved it back in the day as it was truly one of it's kind, but it's definitely not the type of game I can get into.

The AI characters are f*cking retarded as well. Christ, I lost track of the amount of times Popoie or Purim got stuck behind a rock or something.
