Ok, I'll call it an ultra-port-expansion. Does that make you feel better?

Calling it a port is an insult to the game. I seriously doubt you've played it much more than 5 minuites if you think that. Its not an expansion either... expansions actually involve playing a game a lot like the original, and DK94 is almost nothing like the original... no, its a totally new game in a different genre (puzzle, not action) that happens to share the same name.

Plus, Mario has all those cool moves he can do...

Also, the arcade levels as they are in the game aren't direct ports. They are smaller versions of the levels -- and much easier. Also, the arcade version isn't there -- you play those versions of the arcade levels in the altered versions only, and with the acrobatic moves that dramatically change the game... I just can't see any justification that begins to explain how you think the way you do about the game. Except ignorance of how the game works, which is a legitimate excuse, if true.

By your logic, Excitebike 64 is a port of NES Excitebike because it has motorcycles and the name 'Excitebike' in it.. actually, Excitebike would be a much better "port" than DK '94 because it actually has the original game in it and is in the same genre as that game... DK64, too... but DK for GB? Not in the remotest way.

Ha! Didn't you just say that my tastes were awful?? If you really thought that tastes in games were subjective then you wouldn't have said that! I made that Midway remark for the sole purpose of getting you to say what you just said.

I knew you'd say that... which is why I said

Um, there's a small difference between liking specific games and saying 'there are two or three good game on that entire system'?

... Is that too difficult for you to understand? To make it simpler for your seemingly small brain, try replacing 'small difference' with 'extremely large difference' if you can't see the sarcasm...

Also, I didn't write off 99.99% of the games on a console (or declare them all great) or something... I just said I like arcade racing games and Gauntlet is a fun game which I'd give maybe a B+ score to... You did. All I can assume is that either you haven't played most of those GB games I listed, or you have some very strange idea of what a good game is.

Ooh, what a huge change! Perhaps if there were only six or eight Mega Man games then that would be acceptable, but when there are over twenty-one games like are basically the same? That's terrible!

Uh... it WAS a huge change from Mega Man to MMX... and again from X3 to X4 when it went to PSX...
