    OGMKDS Tournament: rules, registrations...prize!

    About that 3 stars thing: FALSE. Snaking just makes a good number of the missions way too easy. It's true that it has become a technique in the game, thanks largely to people who were so obsessed with getting good times that they found it possible to accomplish. But snaking is NOT a staple...

    Soon on GBAtemp...

    My guesses: 1. A scented marker 2. Poisoned gobstoppers 3. Sandals that have been soaked in highly concentrated fruit juice 4. ??? 5. PROFIT!

    ^^title-1865^^

    Indeed. And I'd say that, although the game runs and controls very fluidly, it's just not quite as interesting or fun as Mario Kart Super Circuit. I think Rare are focusing just a bit too much on the technology side of things on the GBA, and thereby less time refining the gameplay to be the...

    1853 - Racing Gears Advance (E)

    Just given the game a short try, and it is pretty dang nifty. Excellent terrain graphics, the cars appear to be actual 3D models that rotate (and even tilt, depending on the terrain) flawlessly, the music is of a surprisingly high quality... unfortunately, the game seems to have a bit of...

    NDS #0001 - Metroid.Prime.First.Hunt-DF

    I sincerely hope that was sarcasm.

    1852 - Garfield The Search For Pooky (E)

    Never got that in my paper, nor have I come across any collections in the library or local bookstore. So, no. More on-topic, I didn't think the Garfield game for Genesis/PC was all that great in itself, but it DID have good animation and rendering of the characters, and the music (in the PC...

    NDS #0001 - Metroid.Prime.First.Hunt-DF

    Perhaps, but getting an actual DS is an infinitely better Christmas present. Look at me! I'm supporting Nintendo!

    1820 - Its Mr. Pants (U)

    I can shed some light on that -- it was actually more or less Nintendo's fault. Dinosaur Planet was along quite a ways in its development when someone from Nintendo noticed that the main character bore a resemblance to a StarFox character, and so the big N decided to start putting pressure on...

    1743 - The Legend of Zelda Fushigi no Boushi (J)

    Actually, after fumbling through the game for a bit and arriving at the second dungeon, I've decided it's not worth my time. They really screwed up on the navigation in this game -- it's dull, repetitive, and confusing. I've already come across about 3 bombable walls that aren't obviously...

    1703 - Mawaru Made in Wario (J)

    You know, the game does still make some use of the A button.

    The irony. Just as I get Paper Mario 2 to tide myself over until Alien Hominid releases -- www.alienhominid.com for those who don't know it, it's gonna rock -- this comes out. Oh well, kudos on making that into a Gameshark code.

    1703 - Mawaru Made in Wario (J)

    I just want to get an idea of what the game is like while waiting for it to be localized (lord knows how long that'll take), is that too much to ask? I DO still plan to buy the game. Maybe I'm impatient, but I'm not impatient AND cheap.

    *tries it just because he's bored* Hey look, a leprechaun just dropped out of my CD tray!

    1703 - Mawaru Made in Wario (J)

    One common misconception is that everyone who downloads and plays roms will never buy the actual cartridge. I want to be able to play this in rom form so it'll give me a good idea of what the game is like. I know the tilt sensor won't be able to be emulatedd very well, but that's part of the...

    1703 - Mawaru Made in Wario (J)

    What confuses me the most is that VBA does have a "motion sensor" configuration menu, but it seems to do jack squat. :hmm:
