Anyway we could do a bit of a GRCADE score table for this? Everyone post their best times for F-Zero or whatever?

SOmeone start a thread.

No I'm not doing it, you do it.

A good idea. I actually won the beginner cup last night, won every race except the last one, in which I came a respectable 2nd :toot:

Will share my times if/when I remember to.

I was in a hotel last week that had a Super Nes in the lobby and they had a copy of Super Star Wars. I had a quick go, game over'd on the landspeeder bit, which I think was the second level. :lol: Hard game.

Super Return of the Jedi had a despicable learning curve. Tried to play it back in June and nearly ended up hurling my SNES out the window!

2018: GameBoy Mini
2019: N64 Mini
2020: DS Mini
2021: Gamecube Mini (for the 20th anniversary)

Question is, will they have multiple GameBoy classics? I could see one for original and colour then another for the advance (Hopefully in the style of the best Game boy model ever, the SP)


It's Nintendo, of course they bloody will!

Actually I don't think they'll make a Gameboy Mini. The original was pretty for a handheld but the later models were small enough, just how miniaturised can it get before it's unplayable?

I could see them releasing GameBoy/GameBoy Advance collections for the DS and Switch (or smartphones :dread: ) though.

I could see them just releasing something in an Original Gameboy casing rather than making it mini, or possibly shrinking it down a bit to the size of a Gameboy Colour.


This, and hopefully it'll have about 100 games. Like Burai Fighter :wub:

I remember playing it back in the day and it being hard. Hardest game I remember on the SNES was Spiderman. So strawberry floating difficult and no save points. Hard to imagine now having to start a game from the beginning each time you play.

Yes?

Made it to Ganon on ALTTP - got nineteen hearts, missing two pieces of heart but I know where both of them are(Turtle Rock and a horrendous random digging game that I simply cannot be strawberry floated doing). Had the bastard down to his last hit and he knocked me down a hole and reset the fight back to the beginning so I rage quit. :lol:

APRIL FOOLS!

We are talking jape of the decade. We are talking April, May, June, July and August fool. That's right. There were only ever two pre-orders - one for me and one for a friend because I'm a good guy really and shame on you all for thinking otherwise.

So after all that Poser ends up with more SNES minis than me...where is your god Grcade? WHERE IS YOUR GOD?!

So... Poser is actually evil and Ad7 is kinda-maybe not evil? I don’t know what to believe any more.

Still haven't picked mine up. It's ready to be collected but I can't be arsed going out of my way. Will get it at the weekend. And why does the box say 20+1 games instead of 21?

It’s a marketing ploy... twenty games plus new never-before-released Starfox 2.

I'm feeling very conflicted right now. I was confident in my scalping because I wasn't as bad as Ad7. But now... now he's held up the mirror and revealed me to have been the monster all along.

I need some time alone.

I know you have 3 and it makes you excited but remember if you get anything on the boxes it will reduce their value.

I'm not really planning to play it any time soon as I still want to go through the NES classic games first (and have my usual backlog to be getting on with). Too many games. :dread: :wub:

Ah, wondered if it might be that. Kind of makes sense I guess.
