I got a bunch of handheld stuff today. All games are cart/card only.
Game Boy
--
Altered Space - $4 - This is an isometric platform action-adventure game, one of those games in this genre that some European developers particularly liked back in the '80s to early '90s. I have been interested in this one for a long time because it's one of the few of these on the GB. I don't expect to really like this, but it's worth a try.
Game Boy Advance
--
Mario Kart: Super Circuit - $8 - Yes, I have never owned this game before.
Ecks vs. Sever - $5 - A FPS that's supposed to be solid. Interestingly enough this game released well before the movie (Ballistic) and has some plot differences from the film as a result. There is a second GBA game more like the move, titled Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever I believe.
Denki Blocks - $2 - Cheap puzzlers are often fun!
Nintendo DS
--
Sonic Colors - $5 - This is the last of the three Sonic platformers for the DS. I still don't have the middle one, Sonic Rush Adventure, but this one's nice to have.
Game Gear
--
The Adventures of Batman & Robin - $10 - This game is a fairly average platformer/beat 'em up, which, for the GG, probably means that it's above average... this game is a far cry from the fantastic Genesis and Sega CD Adventures of Batman & Robin games, but it does look a lot like the (great!) series it's based on, and the gameplay is alright. I don't think I've seen this one in person before, either, since I got a GG.
