I think the coolest game this week is FAST – Racing League from Shin'en, the makers of Jett Rocket for Wii. It uses the same engine so the graphics look really nice for a Wiiware title and it looks almost like an F-Zero game(though admittedly I don't have too much experience in those games so I could be deathly wrong). I'm saving up for a bunch of games in June, as well as the eShop launch, so unfortunately I think I'll pass, but its definitely a game I have my eye on. And from what I hear, the creators of the House game tried to make it as best as they could. . .how it actually turned out is a totally different story though, I 'm intrigued in reading some reviews on it. |

I'm a bit in my cups at the moment.

It looks very much like F-Zero GX. I'll probably get it at some point, though I wish it had online play.

Gameboy Donkey Kong was just added to the Nintendo 3DS eShop, also known as Donkey Kong '94, the game that laid the groundwork for the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series. I'd like to get it once I have some money. |

I have money left over from my Zelda purchase, I'm definitely getting this. I loved this game so much as a child. Didn't it also include the level that wasn't available in the NES version? This game will bring back such great memories. |

A level? No. A multitude of additional levels with lots of variety, yes. Check it out! The NES game was mostly just a port of the arcade version, with levels 25m, 50m, 75m, 100m, and that was it. The game starts out the same but then you get a lot of levels that inspired the Mario vs. Donkey Kong games much later on. The gameplay is mostly like Mario vs. Donkey Kong for GBA. You can triple jump, spin on ropes, and pick up and throw enemies and objects. This may be where most of Mario's moves in Super Mario 64 originated. I'm not positive on that, though. You unlock doors with keys to progress until you make it to the showdown with Donkey Kong. I've played the GBA game and thoroughly enjoyed it, so I definitely want it soon. |

Awesome! I don't remember ever playing it, do you have the original cart? What's it priced at on the eShop? Edited by CHAOSGAMMA, Jun 16 2011, 01:29 PM.

Nope, I just do my research. XD I had read a lot about it on Super Mario Wiki some time ago. It's $3.99 like Super Mario Land. |

I'll pick up Donkey Kong. I have heard lots of great things about it but never played it. There are so many Game Boy games I missed out on. As a kid, I think I only had maybe five games in my collection. Almost forgot that they update on Thursdays now. |

As a kid, my Gameboy game collection consisted of three trilogies. Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, and "Super" Return of the Jedi, Game & Watch Gallery 1-3, and Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle 1-3. XD I also got Looney Tunes and Link's Awakening later shortly before both were re-released as Gameboy Color games. :p Then later there was Star Wars Episode I Racer which Gamma and me had fun with and Pokemon Blue, Silver, and Pinball. Needless to say, there's a lot I missed out on too that I'm looking forward to showing up as VC titles. Top of that list would be Metroid II: Return of Samus, the Mega Man classic Gameboy games (I have both Xtreme games), Super Mario Land 2 and Wario Land 1-3. I hope they include the 2-player functions of future Gameboy VC games. I read that one of those VC games released with the last update didn't have any 2-player. It's also probably too much too hope for, but they should make them possible to connect to certain Wii VC titles like Mario Tennis to unlock the characters. |

I know there's over a hundred levels. What I meant was that the first four levels features the one level that was deleted from the NES port. The NES Version didn't have the pie factory. Or whatever it was. I used to own it on Gameboy. Mighty fine point you make on the Super Mario 64 similarity though. I never thought of that until you said that and briefly while I was playing today.
