Land 1 is only acceptable on a Game Boy Color with preset palette so you can see the sprites. Land 2 is just dumbed down DKC2. Land 3 is a legit good game and the Japanese version has colors.

>>4219671
First one is fun. It's mainly the jungle levels that are ugly. The first level is jungle so people see that and assume the whole game is like that. Notice anyone who posts on here criticizing DKC with an image always posts the same screencap of Jungle Hijinxs.

Second game feels big and empty and ultimately the biggest missed opportunity.

Third one is the best by far. The JP version is a proper GBC game, so it has full color and so on. There is an English patch out there.

3 is legit good. Play the Japanese version, because it has GBC color palettes. The US/EU versions were released 3 years earlier and are monochrome only.

Fun game, but all the stuff in between card battles was lame

Just open the cue.

>>4219140
cue/bin is basically the same thing as iso, just load the cue file

>ePSXe
There's your problem. Use Mednafen or Xebra.

All those mods, lost to time, like tears in the rain

None of the Final Fantasies are any good.

>Better than every other game in the FF series
I can't wait. I intentionally do not read anything about games, and I have not played this one yet. I am running through FF Tactics one more time, than this was next on my list. Thanks. I was pondering this or Chrono Cross.....which I did years ago for a developer ending....

>None of the Final Fantasies are any good.
FF9 and the original Tactics are masterpieces. Everything else is straight up shit.

I thought that was Bud Dwyer for a second before I realized it's from Plumbers Don't Wear Ties

I choose "SHE'LL DO ANYTHING FOR THE JOB?!"

You have to shoot down the named aces to unlock all the planes. Check your medals to see which ones you've shot down.

I didn't watch any YouTube videos of him either btw

1ccing the old Star Wars arcade game on my first try. Must've been a fluke because I never got close again.

I had a Donkey Kong Country file with 104% completion (I hear the final digit can randomly vary) And none of the kids at school believed me.

Depends how they design newer TV's
>thanks captain obvious
You're welcome tard boy

>>4218067
Goof Troop
Contra series
Gunstar Heroes
Metal Slug series
Gauntlet Legends
Joe and Mac
Turtles in Time

Basically any arcade series.

1. You can't co-op in fighters, at least not most of them.

2. If I don't like fighting games, they're blatantly not the best choice for me personally.

>>4218082
Yeah missed the co-op somehow. Try Twisted Metal 1 and 2 and others if you like those.

Toejam and Earl might appeal

Most of these games are great, but on the expensive side as far as Gameboy games go. And unless you read Japanese, Pokemon TCG2 won't be very fun which is unfortunate as it's my favorite game of the ones you mentioned. I'd suggest buying a flash cart instead so you can realistically play them all and get translations for some Japanese exclusives.

>>4217959
Holy fuck I always wanted Rolan's Curse when I was a kid but never could get a hold of a copy and must have forgotten about it for 20+ years before this thread thanks for reminding me.

>Pokemon Trading Card Game 2
This spinoff series is shit. Honestly. Unless you've already played it and decided you do indeed think it's worth owning, I wouldn't bother.
>Trip World
This is just hipster food. The game has a great art direction, but the gameplay is typical platforming fare. It's also quite short. By the way, you can get a repro cart of this dirt cheap if you simply wish to play it. Try AliExpress.
>Kid Dracula
Incredibly niche. I'm not sure even the most diehard CV fans can force themselves to like this game. Hopefully you've already played it before deciding to purchase it.
>Mole Mania
This is more of the type of game you should be looking for, because the gameplay and content are deep enough that you'll get your money's worth.
>Gargoyle's Quest
Great game, but pretty expensive on the reseller market. Also fits the "Nintendo Hard" trope. It's essentially a Mega Man reskin.
>Castlevania
Adventure and Belmont's Revenge are both ludicrously slow-paced. Your character walks slower than a decrepit old man. Legends is a rather low-budget afterthought to the other two GB games. The writing is so terrible, I think the game was actually removed from the series' canon.
>Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters
Did you like the first game? It's basically a ROM hack of that. Everything except the level layouts is the same.
>The Final Fantasy Legend
Now we're talking. The first two have a lot of replay value since you can experiment with different class combinations. The third game does away with all of that and forces you to use scripted characters with their own backstories.
>Rolan's Curse
It's like an under-budgeted Zelda. I did not enjoy these games at all.
>The Sword of Hope
The mechanics are rather poorly fleshed out. Your own magic spells turn around and hit you instead of your enemies.

>>4217848
Love the sega candy cabs but it's hard as fuck to get one in decent shape here on the east coast.

Love the fake pic.

>>4217916

what?

>>4217705
good for you friend

source or something

Why would Sonic ride a Yosh? It would just slow him down to a crawl

Why? It was a mediocre-to-poor game that only got ANY notoriety by being an RPG on a console that was desperately starved of RPGs.

>>4217609
Is it really that bad?
I wanna play it

>>4217609
With a bit of polish, the battle mechanics could revolutionize the sRPG. Make positioning more important, more terrain, etc.

>>4217568
It's one of my favorite games of all time. Massively underrated. I will defend this game until I die.

It's good. Not nearly as bad as Youtube makes it out to be.

>>4217583
It's not bad at all, mate.
