Er....huh?
Whatever. Anyway, I want the Retro GBA so badly, but I'm not sure if my parents would appreciate me making such a big purchase, and currently I don't exactly have they $ for it.

since america gets screwed on the good games in the classic NES series for gameboy advancedHow are we getting screwed?
A port of TMNT for the GBA would be nice, but it probably won't happen. Personally, I'd much rather see Super Metroid make it's way onto the GBA. According to a Nintendo rep (during an interview about Metroid: Zero Mission), that probably won't happen =\

I'm pretty sure they were obscure Japanese titles that never made it to the US anyway.

Yeah I was thinking of picking one up... They look sweet.
As for the TMNT Classics series... Hrm. I don't know If I'd buy them again, 'cause I have the NES games still. It might be kinda cool though.

Pac Man is being advertised with this line. Pac Man was not an original NES game. If I'm correct, this is the FIRST time it's been on a Nintendo system besides in a compelation cartrige.

Yes, it was released on NES back in the 80's. so was Miss Pacman.

Really? I didn't know Namco delt with Nintendo back in the day.

IIRC, Namco developed it, but Tengen published it. I think Tengen was also responsible for Mrs. PacMan and PacMania (excellent game, BTW).
GK Punk

Yeah, Tengen released it Twice, once Unlicenced and once Licenced.

i saw the retro gba games in best buy the other day..Call me a nerd but I thought it was cool how they used the original box art from the NES games.
I was tempted to buy the Legend of Zelda, but I didn't because it was 20 smackers.

Being the spoiled Emulation man I am that's got all his NES games on his Dreamcast...
I find the Retro GBA personally better than the choice of Classic NES games.
I mean, Zelda was just released in the GCN Compilation bonus disc thing, and Mario 1 is already available in "Super Mario Bros. Deluxe" with BONUS LEVELS AND FEATURES. (and BOTH probably cost less than the "NES Classic" game lines.)
Pac-man has been done how many times? Isn't Ice Climber an E-reader game AND an Animal Crossing game as well? Yeah, basically, only Bomberman and Xevious sounded like good deals to me... but then again, this comes from someone who's a real nutcase.
Of course, if they do the damn impossible (Like releaseing Fire Emblem 1 Stateside into the NES Classic series) then all will be forgiven.

and the fact that you dont haveta blow the tapes out and pound on the machine and reset it over and over to get it to work :)
if you have a GB player and a gamecube, BAM play old nes games on tv...

who else thinks that since america gets screwed on the good games in the classic NES series for gameboy advanced, that they should release TMNT in america only.... just a thoughthow exactaly have we gotten screwed on the good games? Star Fighter isn't anything special, and Mappy just sucks. Other than those two, we got the same games. Plus our special editon GBA SP is a hell of a lot cooler than the Famicom Mini SP in Japan.
Also, Nintendo has a Survey (http://www.nintendo.com/classic.jsp) asking people what games they wanna see in the Classic NES line. TMNT 1 and TMNT 2 are main choices, by the way. You want better games? Go vote for your favorites.
And Ninja Turtl3 : RaphaeL, the NES had a couple thousand games on it... they're only releasing the cream of the crop in this series.

I think releasing the NES version of TMNT II would kinda stink, but I voted for it anyway. The original game would be nice.
I actually have the Mini Famicom (Japanese NES GBA SP). Everytime I think I want to get the NES one here as well, I open it up and take a second look at it and the Red and Gold looks pretty cool. I'm a collector but I'm also getting poor, not gonna plunk down another $100 to get two GBA SPs.
Kid Icarus
06-17-2004, 01:11 AM
Ahh, so you got one of the Club Nintendo ones thens? With the gold foil on the inside? Now those are nice. But the normal Famicom Mini's you can pick up in Japan are crappy.

when i check they said they were done getting info for the new games
What they should do is re-release all the TMNT games in a classic Konami collection like they did with Namco games and Mega Man. I would like to see TMNT 1, 2, 3, Turtles in Time, and Tournament Fighters in Gamecube format.
I'd buy it, wouldn't you guys?
Spitfire
06-20-2004, 03:28 PM
Yeah Tournment fighters for all systems on one disk! That would rock along with The Hyperstone Heist, Turtles In Time, Fall Of The Foot Clan Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, TMNT II - The Arcade Game, Back From the Sewers, The Manhattan Project, The Manhattan Missions, Turtles III Radical Rescue, and TMNT on Game Boy Advanced. That would be nice maybe they will do it but if they release it it should be on all systems and not just one

arnt alot of the old games gonna be hidden on tmnt 2 game thats comein out

Just the arcades but console wise... that's more than enough!
However the NES classics would greatly benefit from TMNT games. I'd say TMNT 3 would be the best choice given it's so overlooked but fantastic. The second game would be the most likely release though given it's the arcade game and also the first TMNT game to come out in Japan (Japan never got TMNT 1). TMNT 1 would be the most "vintage" game they could release so maybe they'd go for that.
The second set of these games that are coming out in Japan soon (or maybe they have come out) is even more weak sause than the first batch. Where's Contra, Castlevania, Kid Icarus, Mega Man, etc?
If Contra isn't in the third batch then I'm gonna be pissed!
As for the current batch in the US... I bought Ice Climber (can't get enough of that one) and Excite Bike. IMO the rest were a waste of money, especially Pac Man and Super Mario Bros.
