I liked Seasons more than Ages. Changing the seasons was something new. Changing the age was like in ALttP or OoT. Ages has the more difficult puzzles. Seasons has more action.

It doesn't matter where you start. Both games are equally good and about the same length.

Agreed.

I say you get both, and try both at around the same time to see which one you like more.

No!

I say beat one - then write down the password you get in the end.
Then start the other game with the password you got! Otherwise you won't see the real ending.
Don't play both games at the same time!

I didn't mean play them both at the end.:P I only meant that he should test each one to see which one he liked more.

Thanks for the info, I will do it that way then. Though I still have to wait for my Retro GBA SP to arrive, it is worth waiting.

Yeah, that's where I got mine from for about the same price. I havn't regretted it though and at the end of the day it will retain its value as it will never be emulated.

I'm getting there, trust me. It's been on my systems-to-add list for a while, but I already spend my console budget for the year on all those old Sega systems. Maybe summer 2010.

I think I'm about done on my VB collection. The only other affordable games I could get would be Waterworld (which is meant to be terrible) and Space Invaders which goes for about the same price as the system itself.

Most of the others are in Stupid Money territory.

I probably should have given Insmouse No Yakata another bash this Halloween as its Lovecraftian nature would have complimented Eternal Darkness. Jack Brothers would have also been a good pick...hmm, I sense a trip to the store for some batteries!

Oh and my List is missing the following two games that I own for VB:

Virtual League Baseball 95 (JAP)
GOLF (NA)

Bagged an unopened box of the printer paper x3 for a fiver from ebay yesterday. Finally I'll be able to make some stickers with the bonus pics you get in SMBD and Links Awakening DS.

That's a nice deal you got there though. For me Super Mario Bros Deluxe is the best SMB title around, there's so much to do and unlock.

GB stuff is so cheap on ebay its stupid. People seem to think that just because its outdated hardware its somehow worthless but in reality its still probably one of the top handhelds out there for its library of games.

I just beat it yesterday. Wonderful game. Definitely one of the best Kirby games ever, seconded only by Kirby's Adventure.

I can see why you thought that it was Japan-exclusive. This was the first time I've ever seen a copy of it, and I've wanted it for a REALLY long time...

Yeah... that's all I got for GBC. The only one out of the bunch I've ever really enjoyed is Pokemon Silver, but wouldn't you know it, its internal battery died a couple years ago, so it can't save/load progress anymore. I'm gonna have to get around to replacing the battery someday... preferably without ruining the cartridge, of course.
