I admit I’ve sold all my retro systems over the years and just kept upgrading. I’ve had everything from Atari 2600 with 30+ games, nes up to my current systems. I still have my Wii U only because it’s still used daily by someone in the house, and it has 300+ games with Wii, vc etc... my 3ds has ds and Eshop totaling over 100. I sell any games I can after beating them if they have no replay value, or just to get full value back and then rebuy it years later dirt cheap to replay it. I played those retro games and still do, but don’t need to experience owning systems I’ve already owned and played plenty of obscure games on that aren’t the same 20 nes classic ones. With my switch and it’s growing library, I already own a life time of gaming that I really should stop buying, but I am planning on 5 games this month alone. And I have a pc/ps3/4 as well.
Great game in a great series. The 3rd is automatically better because you can co-op entire 2nd game. I need to track it down and hook up my old Wii to play this again. Been since I had a gc to play these.
@thesilverbrick where are all the online GameCube games? What, fantasy star? Going against a almost pc competing Xbox and ps2 with their halo, battlefield. and gtaetc... GameCube proved power didn't mean sales. Ps2 may have been the least powerful, but it sold the most. Why? Gta, ff, twisted metal, gow, etc... GameCube and smash and cartoon link even with awesome single player metroids couldn't keep up. Where was the online? I admit I even got bored with my gc and traded it for a ds. I've always been pc and nintendo. I ended up with a ps2 after PS3 came out. I wanted to play some of those games. I got a wii day 1 and it has been my main gaming for like 10 years. My pc and ps 3 and now 4 are all my back up gaming. Id rather replay Zelda then most other RPGs out there. Bloodborne isn't dark souls and it's not as good as bayonetta 2 and they practically the same game gameplay. I got star wars battlefront knowing what it is, and I've put more hours into Devils third cause it's more fun to play team death match with a sword and machine gun. That game is red steel 3. We all have our preferences, but what I saved not paying for online services over the last 10 years has alowed me to aquire over 300 games for my wii u, wii, vc, wiiware eshop. Along with like 100 on my ds. Why did I need to buy ps4 even? Cause it's cooler then nintendo according to my 14 year old. Cooler to pay for gaming services is all I hear.
This series of games are some of the best ever. Yea, tie fighter on my pc was plenty awesome too, but for home console, not much is better then rogue squadron. I wish these were re-released for current gen gamers. they better then anything star wars related today.
@hYdeks Nintendo has always made inferior consoles to play superior games on. The game boy was inferior to game gear. Snes to genesis. N64 to ps1. Etc... But it's the games that matter, and there are more awesome games on wii u today then ps4. More on 3ds then vita. I play games, not consoles.
Being a huge Nintendo/Zelda fan, it bugs me that these are the only games in the series ive never played. even today, there would cost $500 or so to get off ebay and play. Yea, id resell it, but still. Wish Nintendo would put these on VC or something. Im sure I could find an emulator, but I know 0 about that stuff.

I didn’t know it would keep going. I hit 999 lines and just got bored and stopped playing several times over years.

Re: Hardware Review: GB Boy Classic And GB Boy Colour: The Best Way To Play Game Boy Today?
Sold, preloaded with games. Where can I order?
Ps, I will still be buying 2-3 of each Nintendo console no matter it being switch or a gameboy classic. But this looks awesome.
