Mega Man: Star Force: Dragon Version.

Feeeeh. It's not 'X' enough to Battle Network's 'Classic'. Battle system is way more fun than the BN series's though. Feels kinda plain though, compared to how much there was to battles in Battle Network 6.

Dexie:  Your quote and picture scare me.  :o

Finally went out and got me a copy of Pokemon Fire Red.
Hopefully it'll be as fun as the first time I played the original. Ah, the memories~!

[Dracos]

Isn't that an odd pick for nostalgia?  Or just want the simpler setup?

Who'd you start with?

[Ragnar]

Why would that be an odd pick for nostalgia?
Anyway, that was my first handheld game, right after I bought a gameboy, so it kinda marks my start to the handheld consoles.

I was also just being overly smarmy.
If I really wanted nostalgia, I'd go play Duck Hunt in my friend's attic :)

And yeah, I also like the simpler setup of the game. One of my friends who still does a lot of pokemon stuff had one of the new ones, and it's too complicated. I like the good old basics.

Now if you'll excuse me, that damn dog is laughing at me again. I'll show HIM who's a bad shot...!

LOAD BOTH BARRELS!

Wii Play, for Nintendo Wii.

It's simple, but fun. Well worth the 10 dollars.

Luminous Arc for the DS. Very basic srpg in the tradition of FFT, only dumbed down quite a bit and (so far) minus a lot of the suck.

Oddly enough, I've figured out a way to power level my healer early in the game. If I wanted I bet I could max her out by the fifth chapter. >_>

Art of Fighting Anthology for the PS2.

Unless you're a SERIOUS SNK fanatic, save your money. These games are freaking impossible.

Hah.

*is waiting for the Fatal Fury collection*

Dexie: Yeah, that's number one on my "to buy" list right now :D

Been playing quite bit recently.

Was playing Persona 3. Love it, but I took a break for Metroid Prime 3. Will definately be getting back to finish it, though.

Metroid Prime 3...it's awesome. MUCH better than Prime 2, on all levels. Highly recommend.

Got stuck on a boss on that, though, and a PSP recently came into my posession, so I've been messing with that.

Started with Mega Man: Powered Up, which is a pretty cool remake of the original Mega Man. Totally redone stages, you can play as Roll, Protoman, and the Robot Masters...it's nice. My only gripe is that they fucked with the story, and added two new Robot Masters, Oilman and Timeman, who are quite lame.

Then I moved on to Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology, which is very, very nice. A huge step-up from the insult that was Tales of the Abyss.
