the ds (at least the one where you can play gba games still) is the best system of all time, without a doubt.

well you know my vote for best system of all time: Gamecube w/GB Player (GCN + GB + GBC + GBA = woah.) but yeah, I couldn't pass up a DS for $5. It'll give me an excuse to finally check out some of the exclusives. |

a phatDS? but still 5 bucks is a hell of a deal. |

yeah a phat. |
I love the DS's brightness settings.. dark.. somewhat dark.. dark.. somewhat dark.. hmm, what to chose?
I always ripped into my friend for still having a original DS when the Lite came out. |
DAMN, Mystical Ninja! Now THAT'S a fucking gem! I'd have my parents rent me that from the store, for weeks on end. Never did get a hold of my own copy though.

yeah the DS isnt as nice as the Lite. But $5.. fuck. Plus, I won't play the DS as much as my GBA... or NEARLY as much as my GBPlayer. |
No $5 is a steal! A great find!

One of the easier 4X turn based strategy games to get into. Still complex with alot of stuff to do, but not too overwhelming like some. Very fun, though I've never been too good at these, so I feel like a dipshit having to play on the easiest setting, but ah well. It feels really rewarding though when you're doing well. Great stuff. |

No shame in your game!!! I've played that game through like 3 times on "hardcore" setting and still miss it. Still my all time favorite game. I haven't played it in a couple years though... I've gotten away from PC gaming, especially shooters. Farcry 2 was damn good too, check it out. The other ones, like the Xbox only ones are complete piles of crap that shouldn't bare the name. You might like Just Cause 2.... it has all the appeal that Far Cry did, but is a third person shooter. I'm currently playing that. |
![]() addicting. |
is there a link cable workaround for gba games on the ds lite?
I wanna play the SMB3 battle game with a buddy of mine in my spain holidays. I dont wanna take the snes with me... |
Quote:
no sorry. GBA games are single-player ONLY on the DS. |
no workaround then?
damn. I am two footsteps away from purchasing super street fighter 2 turbo revisited for the gba. any contra? if not its a deal. for around 12 bucks plus shipping btw noiseredux: what about our deal? comix zone is waiting to be send. its still packed :) |
I've been playing an assload of SNES & Genesis shmups with my Cube arcade stick. I think it's my favorite genre now. There's something so elegantly simple about them. Ther'es a great balance. They're challenging but easy to understand (shoot shit / don't get blown up). They're capable of making me feel stressed out and yet their simplicity is comforting to me. So great.

I edited my last post, please have a look!!!
I am playing this, and it hits exactly the shmup vein. and its INSANE!!!! ![]() ![]() its by treasure. so no surprise. |
Quote:
SSF2TR is possibly my favorite GBA cart of all time! haha I was wondering about our deal to. I couldn't even remember if you had mailed the game out already. :) |
yes once. but it returned cause they couldnt read the wet ink. its repacked and ready to leave if you want!!!
did you ever play bangai o? its the most insane shmup Ive ever played. plus full level editor and awseome sound load feature to download custom maps all over the world! ARGH its just one of those perfect packages SSF2TR is purchased |
I haven't played Bangai-O, but it looks amazing. I told you I just got a DS right?
on Comix Zone -- to be honest, it's up to you. I'm actually thinking that if you send it to me, I'll probably end up selling it. Haha. So if you think you might want to keep it, that's cool. If not, then we'll do the trade, cuz I don't want to leave you hanging on the trade either. So yr decision, and I'm cool either way. You will not be disappointed on SSF2TR. Not sure how you feel about puzzle games, but Super PUZZLE Fighter 2 is on my list of ABSOLUTE MUST-OWN GBA CARTS also. |
when it comes to puzzle games it depends. but I only heard good things bout puzzle fighter. and the SF2 series is definately my favourite fighting series with the roots back to my childhood. so this will be the next thing I think.
I always thought you got a ds...! bangai o is damn cheap all over the net. and the gameplay is just as long as you want it to be (infinite downloadable content) there was also a level design competition which included Ten Pro Game designer to develop their own level for the game with the included level editor. and what should I say: its awesome!!! the sound load feature triggers nostalgia by the way cause it sounds like these fax / modem sounds hahaha I got comix zone for the genesis so I am just semi interested in the gba version. would prefer the game genies :) would you get a good price for it in the states? |
I had a DS years ago. Got rid of it in 2007 cuz it was collecting dust. My wife has one. But I just found one for $5. (yes, you read that right). So I had to buy it.
Bagai-O sounds amazing for the level editor. Is there a way to save/share yr levels??? I could probably get a lot for Comix Zone if another GBA collector like myself came along. As far as I can tell, pretty much nobody here even knows it was re-released on GBA. But if you wanted to keep I'd be fine. I'm E-Z yo. |

you can share the levels as sound. thats what I am referring to. the ds makes madoem like sounds if you wanna share those levels. its done in 5 seconds!!! so you search up the net for custom levels. hold the DS at your notebook speakers. press play on the wav/mp3 player and baddabing its in your game!!!! works perfect. you can store up to 25 on the cartridge itself and a million on your comp. levels you created will be saved the same way round. connect the headphone output to your comps line in (for best quality) hit record and send it to...ME :). and I would be able in under a minute to play your level!!! its one of the reasons why I love this game so much. there are already metroid style levels floating around on the web. so you destroy everything bangai o style while revisiting the first level of metroid. on the upper screen you see the overall map of each level. and some dudes design charakters with it and so on. btw the level editor is full fledged. its FUN to make your own levels and try to trick the future players. sometimes its difficult to make them playable if your idea is too complex. but really it works. if you are on a shmup flash at the moment. I couldnt recommend you more then this game, and maybe you will appreciate the 5 bucks you ve spend for the ds even more!!!! |
OMG al -- modem-sound-triggered levels! That's amazing! It's like when my Tandy had a cassette-drive!! Wow. I think I just found my first must-get DS title!!
BTW, I'm pretty sure you own Final Fantasy Tactics Advance for GBA. But if you don't, please do. (I'm slowly leaking you my list of perfect GBA games). |
its high on my wanted list!!!! I am looking forward to see the full list!
and yes the OMG thoughts doesnt stop with that game. see a video review and you get blown away! the only thing that the game doesnt have is a story. but for gods sake. it doesnt matter, hahaah http://www.actionbutton.net/?p=335 pretty cool review, even if the guy snt fully aware of the sound load feature. but the rest is spot on! the review is good despite his genesis/xbox comparison, hahaha I TOTALLY FORGOT: It even got MULTIPLAYER, aahahahahaahah with custom maps etc. I am going nuts, I even havent played the multiplayer feature, but thinkin about it makes me going insane, really! the game is like: Treasure made an insane game engine. put the editor with it in a box and an awesome sharing feature and lets you do whatever you want with it. |
I'm excited. Ps3 modchips are out! Can't wait to actually start playing next gen games!
|
![]() I'm actually playing the Gen version, which was titled Sol-Deace. Same game without the cut-scenes added to the SCD version. I love this game. It was one of the few shmups I did appreciate when I was younger, as it was a packin with the SCD. |
SUPER PUZZLE FIGHTER II TURBO and TETEIS ATTACK (I think it's POKEMON PUZZLE LEAGUE on the gba and PLANET PUZZLE LEAGUE on the ds) are the two best puzzle games ever.

Puzzle Fighter is amazing. My favorite puzzler ever. I'm not a huge fan of Panel De Pon (Tetris Attack, etc). I have Pokemon Puzzle Challenge (GBC) and I had Puzzle League (GBA). I think they're ok. I'm just not that good at them. Puzzle Fighter comes so 2nd nature to me. Another puzzler I absolutely adore is Hexcite (GB). Have you played it Adam? It's not a fast-paced puzzler, but it's really excellent. |
So, I've realized that I've had his Dreamcast sitting on my shelf for months, sadly untouched due to lack of games.
So I've decided that I'm going to go out and purchase a Dreamcast game today. ![]() Here are the titles I already know that I want... Crazy Taxi Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Power Stone 2 Resident Evil: Code Veronica Shenmue Soul Reaver (I'm craving this one, soooo badly) Typing of the Dead Are there any other unsung DC classics that I may not be aware of? Thanks guys... |
Puzzle Fighter
Mr. Driller Dr. Eugene, you do know that DC can play burned games un-modded right? |
:eek: . . .
|
seriuosly??? YOu didnt know that? you might want to start googling and buy yrself a big stack of blank cd's.
|
You seriously just changed my life, NR. It's a shame that I'm never able to rep you. I honestly had no clue.
And yes, I will definitely get Mr. Driller! I used to love playing Drill Spirits back when I still owned my DS. Probably my most missed DS title... that, Castlevania, and the Rayman 2 port. |
Mr. Driller is decent.. way too easy though. I like the Japanese-only Puyo Puyo Fever for the PS1. Devil Dice is amazing, too, though Bombastic is better. I like Puzzle Star Sweep as well. The best ps2 puzzle games are Lumines and Puzzle Quest though.
And I am playing this right now: ![]() Next to Puzzle Fighter, the best PS1 puzzle game -- actually, maybe the best game on the system -- is Intelligent Qube. ![]() |
Has anyone ever played this? I bought a copy today as it reminded me of the X-COM games.
![]() |
^no but that's awesome. X-Com is great. I love turn based strategy games.

The DreamCast is probably the best console system of all time. It represents when the last breath of true originality, mindblowing unique gameplay... because of its failure, games like ChuChu Rockets, Jet Grind Radio, Shenmue, Space Channel 5, Seaman, etc. were considered "lesser" and we are going to get a billion God of Wars now instead.
Now playing: ![]() |
