Well it doesn't... adding it could be nice, but it would also mean they'd add a lot more enemies and stuff... keeping 2-direction firing makes it simpler, which isn't a bad thing unless the game really badly needs more firing directions... they have never been designed for them before...

What the hell? What are you replying to? I just said "ookay".

It wasn't bad by Mario standards... all Mario platformers are good games. Its just not as great as most of the rest...

It was very bad by Mario standards. It's the slow little cousin that never gets invited to family dinners.

I own Micro Machines 1 for GB, MM 1&2 for GBC, and MMV3 for GBC... as well as MM2: Turbo Tournament for PC. All of them are fun games... but yeah it is better on PC, if just because you can see more of the track at once... considering the GB's screensize though they are very good games...

Oh, and you must be thinking of a different game... Mole Mania is a 1st party Nintendo (puzzle game, reminiscent of Lolo) game and isn't on the PC... unless you meant emulation?

And IMO, those two platformers are both REALLY good...

Hooray for your opinion. *clap clap clap clap*

For some strange reason, I have a funny feeling that in 9 years (1989 - 1998) the GB had more good games than the GBC did in 2 1/2 (late 1998 - summer 2000)? Nah, silly me... who cares about which one had WAY more games (and, IMO, a similar ratio of good to bad games -- almost all Nintendo ones are good and a very small number of 3rd party ones are...)? Not you, that's for sure... and it defies sanity and logic...

The Gameboy was Nintendo's little money maker that they didn't need to put many recources into because it would sell like crack no matter what. That's why in nine years we only got one Zelda game, one Metroid game, and one good Mario game (Mario Land 2). Third-party games were complete shit for the most part. It's lineup was filled with more stinkers than the PSX could have ever dreamed of. When the GBC came out Nintendo and third-parties were able to port over some very good NES games, and Nintendo let Capcom make two Zelda games. Hoo-ah! That's what I'm talking about! And while the GBC may not have as many good games as the Gameboy, it certainly does have more great games.

Was it a great system? Yes, absolutely... and if you include the whole GB lineup in its game selection its even maybe the better one. But you shouldn't... only GB-only (and dual-mode) games should count for GB and vice versa... and when you look at those good game lists, the GB's is so much longer...

Dude, just admit that the Gameboy was Nintendo's weakest system even though it lived the longest.
