    Sweet. I'm guessing you'll like Twisted, it's a lot meatier than all the other games, but if you're like me, you may still enjoy the first game more in the long run. Not because of the games themselves, but there's just a certain air...

    I'd still like to hear about Wario World, seeing as it was made by Treasure, I can't help but think it has to be somewhat good.

    And as for R.Tengoku, where would you rank it with the others? Personally, I think I said it was at the top for me, but it's biggest flaw is that it's not as replayable as the others. Only one file, and the games don't have the same draw that later ones do to make you feel like you want to come back to them individually. As far as gameplay and mechanics go, though, it wipes the floor with the rest of the series. That alone scores it big for me. Endless Doctor Virus is a pretty neat example of having a lot more interactivity in a high stakes game.

    I appreciate the Metal Gear Series, especially for being a semi serious game that at the end of the day doesn't really take itself seriously, but there are days where I feel bad for Hideo Kojima. They just would not let that man quit, I'd honestly hate to be in that position.

    It makes me wonder how he feels about the series now. Apparently, all the recent works he puts out reach crtitical acclaim, so it's not like he's trying to sabatoge anything (or is he?), but I just hope he's at the least rejuvenated and not feeling as if he's stuck in a labor camp. I haven't really kept up with him as a director since the first time he got so much backlash.

    The only Metal Gear I played was the first one on the MSX, and I still didn't finish that game, though that's due to it not being my copy. I think it's an extra in one of the newer Metal Gears for the PS3, and my friend brought it over a couple of times for me to play.

    When or if you decide to play Starfy 3, let me know how it handles. Or maybe I'll find a moment to go through it myself, depends on who gets to it first? I don't exactly have a lot of time on my hands, heh.

    Whoa. Well that's mind blowing. Maybe that's why it seemed like the first game's little diddies were the best. WWMM being new, I guess they didn't really try to establish a WarioWare sound yet, and just used more inspiration from the Wario Land series. I also already knew about the balancing game from Jimmy's sports being a song from the Wario series.

    Haha, and why is the featured video "The worst female Goalkeeper ever"?

    I'm going to have to try these games. I always wanted to, but I guess I kept putting it off. I'll start with 4, though, based off of your recommendation.

    Wasn't there one for the Gamecube, though? Made by Treasure or something? That alone sounds promising, though I think I recall people saying it wasn't part if the Land series.

    Now that I think of it, I do recall that Twisted was never realized in Europe. I dunno why, though. Well, if it makes you feel better, you guys get SHUMPs that I wish the US had.

    I ended up importing the Parodius Collection and TwinBee Collection (as well as Salamander to round out the Konami shooter collections) for the PSP, games that I know Europe had a few entries of. I always liked more whimsical games, and TwinBee is a series I wouldn't mind seeing a revival in. I know I tend to dislike endless sequels, but I felt like TwinBee never really ended properly. Unless it's one of those "and the adventure continues on, even if you're not with us" sort of things. Or cancelled before they could reach the penultimate game, anyway.

    I think you also have some DoDonPachi games I feel like I need to try. :|

    Starfy, hmmm. I liked what I was able to play with the very first game (though, being a ROM, it locked itself after a certain point), and I really enjoyed what little of the story I could get, but when they finally localized the DS Starfy game... well, I can't remember any of it. I feel like perhaps it's a weak entry in the series? I didn't have that same connection I felt from the first game, and I'm sure it got better in the immediate sequels. Maybe the DS game is a victim of the series starting to hit sequelitis? Maybe I'm just weird and the DS game is one of the better ones?

    That's a series I'm gonna need to try out again from scratch.

    WarioWare: Mega Microgames (the first one, so the one you're talking about) is also my favorite, with Twisted and DIY following behind. The thing about the first one, is that I feel like it has a certain charm that the rest of them don't have in how crude it is (aesthetically). It's like watching the pilot of a cartoon. Specifically a cartoon that got a huge art shift (so I guess something like Tracey Ullman Simpsons to the series itself). Mega Microgames and Tengoku GBA are very very much alike, in that they seem to be the only games in the series to utilize full control of most of the buttons on the GBA, so it gives them a lot more range. I also liked the little jingles in Mega Microgames.

    Twisted and DIY are good for separate reasons. Twisted is probably the most content heavy WW in the series, with some really fun games, but the music in them isn't memorable. DIY is only good if you're a content creator, which I was long enough to make like 26 games, but I made sure there were as quality as I could make them, and most of them use music from the first game. Touched I believe is the only other one I've played, and it's kind of weak being a launch title, but the sound quality is surprisingly high.

    I remember you reading in a lot of areas that Wario Land is your favorite game, or series of games. Which one, though? I wish I tried Shake-It, to be honest. If nothing else, I admired the production values on that one. I'd say we need more games like that, but I'm also fully aware of the time and cost of such things, unfortunately.

    Every game I've ever imported never let me down, but it's usually because I'm already familiar with the franchise. Mother 3 was probably the best import choice I've made to date, even if I couldn't read a bit of it and had to print out a guide from GameFAQs to play alongside it. Haha, who knew Tomato and the rest would actually finish the fan translation? And that was years ago at this point. Sheesh, that's a good way to date myself. As for R.Tengoku, can't remember how much I paid, but what you're paying sounds about right. It was less expensive than I thought, I can say that much. But it was still in print back then, or at least Play-Asia still had copies, anyway.

    Yessir, probably my favorite Nintendo franchise to date, probably tied with Wario Ware. Actually, I just got finished roughing out a(nother) animation based on Rhythm Heaven's music. I stuck a link to it in my gallery, if you're interested.

    All 3 of 'em a pretty solid, but the DS game is probably my least favorite of a overall great bunch. Man I wish I had my Wii right now...

    People hate tap jump(or at least me anyway) cuz sometimes it messes up with their ups. Me being a Yoshi player, its almost mandatory I have tap jump off cuz it literally gimps my recovery if I jump at the wrong time. But i do see what you mean. You use up to jump on games like street fighter and what not.

    The wii-chuck's directional pad can serve as a convenient c-stick. I like the wii mote due to you not having to move you fingers very far if at all for some commands(ie. the only fingers I actively move are the ones for "A" and the d-pad.) My only complaint is that while the d-pad for smashes is nice,what you are in dire need of is a grab button. Thats why I have grab set as "down". It is slightly hindering at times when you need to immediately down smash without manually inputting it with down>A. For the wii mote you can press a and b at the same time to grab, but I find mashing to buttons to be a highly unreliable way to grab(mistakes are common).

    However I was looking at some brawl vids and a snake player(Ultimate Razer) uses the wii-chuck...wish I knew his configuration.

So, I'm not particularly fond of the Pidgey line. Pidgey itself is cute, but it gets uglier as it evolves. Now I've always been vocal about Pidgeot, and consider it kind of a joke (not Flareon levels though). It's never been particularly good, and even when it got a specially focused mega, they gave Boomburst to the superior bird instead, Swellow. Speaking of, is Mega Pidgeot a contender for most forgettable mega? I think so! Honestly I've always preferred the much better normal/flying type of its...
