Retro-cool

Friday, June 18, 2004

I bought myself two of the 'Classic NES' games for my GBA-SP last week, and I must say I'm quite pleased.
First off, Walmart seemed to be having a sale on them and I picked up Mario Bros. for $19.83 before taxes. Sadly, at the time they were sold out of Zelda. This was 2 days after the release.
I finally managed to score a copy of Zelda last Sunday, and have been playing it ever since.
I suck just as hard at Mario as I did when I first played it in the 80s, and I'm just a clueless about Zelda. Though, I'm becoming more skilled at Zelda. My Mario skills however, are still laughable.
I saw on ign.com that Shining Force has been rereleased for GBA, with a few enhancements, and 2 new characters. Now this is quite cool, but what I'd LOVE is to play Shining Force II on my GBA. Though, as Barrett and I were discussing, I'm sure it's simply a matter of time before awesome games like Chrono Trigger get rereleased.
