Yet again ANOTHER What games should I buy thread

[Pocketim]

I'm really sick of gamecube games since I can't find any game that suit my game taste (I have the Sonic games but thats all I like on the gamecube) Can you reccomend some games to me? Just so you know I like Platformers and Puzzle games and I don't like anything too violent or based on a movie

[Spore]

Well Mr.Narrowview, if you haven't played Super Mario Sunshine you could buy that for $10 dollars. It really isn't as bad as some say. But, it is no Mario 64. It is a platformer collecting game though. If you have a Nintendo 64 and haven't played either Banjo Kazooie games pick them up from a site like Ebay or Amazon. I'm sorry but there just isn't too much that fit your very specific tastes. If you want puzzle games though, just download some free ones onto a computer. There are billions.

I already have super mario sunshine and I hate it, as for the N64 I hate the controller and I am going to wait untill the good platformers appear on VC so I can use the nice gamecube controller, what is WarioWorld like?

How about Pikmin or Luigi's Mansion? Sounds like those two would be right up your alley.

It might be best if you just stop playing videogames and go read books or do puzzles or something.

Honestly wind waker or twilight princess. But wait is that your type;)

[SegaFan]

How about Billy Hatcher? An overlooked but decent platformer from Sega, if you haven't already got it. It's a little bit childish but quite challanging.

What games have you got and what other types of games do you like?

[Mendez]

Eternal Darkness (get this even if you don't like anything violent, it's too awesome not to get)
Pikmin 2
Smash Bros
Paper Mario
Sonic Mega Collection
Luigi's Mansion
The Sims
Super Monkey Ball


Just a few favourites I bumped into when looking down my shelf, all great games.

Haha, I have the eye-toy version of that of Sega Superstars! Is it avalible in NZ becouse I don't have a Free-loader

I don't know, but it's available in Europe and quite easy to find here, I think you can play European games in New Zealand without Freeloader, am I right?

I've just had a look through my collection to see if I'd missed any. Going by what you've told me (that you like platformers and puzzle games) maybe you'd like Chibi Robo, but that could be hard to find now.

Mendez has some good suggestions. Super Monkey Ball is essential. Pikmin and Luigi's Mansion are also great games and should be very cheap.

Chibi-Robo I've always wanted to try this, but its so hard to get offline and online, would I have any luck getting a EU import?

Luigi's Mansion I've borrowed thiss off my friend and it is true classic, it does have a few flaws however, I will get this

Pikmin Another game I have borrowed off my friend but I am not able to enjoy it because the fact that I only have 30 Pikmin days to finish the game stresses me, I wont get this game.

Pikmin 2 Does Pikmin 2 have the time pressure that Pikmin 1 has?

Billy Hatcher I'll get this game and see if it works as a replasment for a Sonic Adventure 3

Zelda: WindWaker Not 3D Zeldas, 2D Zeldas are way better then 3D Zelda games in my opinion

Zelda: 4 Swords Is this anything like Minish Cap?

WarioWorld Will someone PLEASE comment on this game?

Super Monkey Ball I have Super Monkey Ball Deluxe

Chibi-Robo I've always wanted to try this, but its so hard to get offline and online, would I have any luck getting a EU import?
It's difficult to find in Europe as well (but not impossible), expect to pay full price for it. You could try ebay. It may be cheaper just to buy a Freeloader and import the American version, why don't you just do that (if you have a GC, that is)?

Pikmin 2 Does Pikmin 2 have the time pressure that Pikmin 1 has?
No, Pikmin 2 doesn't have the same time pressure, there is no overall set number of days, and the time limit each day isn't so much of a factor because it stops when you're inside caves. I actually didn't like it as much as the original Pikmin, but I know a lot of people like it more because of it having less pressure.

Billy Hatcher I'll get this game and see if it works as a replasment for a Sonic Adventure 3
Unfortunately it's nothing like Sonic Adventure, but it's a good game in its own right.

Zelda: WindWaker Not 3D Zeldas, 2D Zeldas are way better then 3D Zelda games in my opinion

Zelda: 4 Swords Is this anything like Minish Cap?
If you don't like other 3D Zeldas you won't like the Wind Waker. I've not played Minish Cap, but Four Swords it's a good 2D Zelda game even in single player. Multiplayer is even better, of course, but you'll need one GBA per player for that.

WarioWorld Will someone PLEASE comment on this game?
Never played it. All I know is that it's developed by Treasure, so it should be good. I'd like to get this myself, actually.

[Pocketim]

Thanks for all your help SegaFan, I'm going to get Pikmin 2, Luigis Mansion, and Billy Hatcher next time I get a chance to buy them, I'll wait for WarioWorld and Chibi-Robo
