    Quote:The map is the same quality you can expect from the later 2D Metroid games, so yes it's good.

    The Metroid games are good, but annoying because of how nonlinear and unexplained everything is (yes, even Fusion had a lot of that...)... it's not bad I guess, it just makes the games hard and kind of frusterating. I like knowing what I'm supposed to be doing (or intentionally not doing anything that really has a point, for games that are fun to replay even though you've beaten them or something like that)...

    Quote:Secret of Evermore. Certainly it's better than popular opinion would admit, but the main reason it's so maligned is because it was in fact the "replacement" for SD3, and that carries a lot of resentment...

    Given how incredible SD3 is (having played the translated rom), it's deserved...

    Quote:The DKC games advertised the graphics, but they were good games in their own right as well. Don't pay attention to Gamespy's idiotic "worst games ever" list. Anyone who can say DKC was "overrated" is a liar. The sequels didn't innovate though, at least not all that much. That's the main problem. Still, you should get at least one of them.

    I have DK Land for GB so I know the style... and it's fun, but not innovative or so incredible that I'm going to go to great lengths to get them. Maybe one sometime though.

    Quote:As for Yoshi's Island, get the GBA version. The SNES version is an awesome game. The GBA version captures it almost perfectly (except for the "touch fuzzy" effect not being fully converted, but that only matters for a few parts of like two levels). Other than that, it is portable and adds 6 new levels that are very fun in their own right. I'd recommend that over the SNES version, but that's just me.

    But the GBA version costs more (still $30-plus) and isn't fullscreen...

    On that note, I want a Super Game Boy. Why? No, not just for the fact that it adds borders and special color schemes in like a dozen of my original GB games, but because with a SGB (and like those borders not with a GB Player) you can play 4-player Bomberman GB on your SNES... that'd be nice. :)

    Quote:Star Fox original didn't age well in some ways. It's still a fun game, but yeah SF64 outdoes it. If you are going for a collection though, go for it.

    I played it a little, the graphics are one thing (one could call them "stylized"), but the very bad framerate and, worse, lack of a targetting cursor doom it... it makes it so hard to aim... oh, and 3d shooters controlled with dpads just don't work that well.

    Quote:In the end though, there's always the Revolution .

    Yes, but that's just emulated games on a not-the-original controller, so it's just not the same...
