Remember that thing you used to carry in your pocket?

No, not your wallet! I mean that thing that that played games… You know.

Your Gameboy! Hell yeah you remember that. Well, lemme help you find some games to play on that bad boy.

Pocket Bomberman

This game was an instant classic… for me anyway. It was never terribly popular, but it was good and it was challenging. You play as Bomberman(durr) and you have to climb a tower for some reason… I forget. Anyway, each floor of the tower is a new world, guarded by a different giant bad guy type monster. You get lots of cool power ups for your bombs, and what I really liked about this game is you had to use the bombs to solve puzzles… By jumping on them. Sometimes they’d blow up and kill you, so you either had to be fast or have the power up that makes them detonate on command. This game is totally awesome and definitely worth a try.

Revelations: The Demon Slayer

This is an interesting mix of Final Fantasy, your mom, and Pokemon. You play as [Instert Name Here] who is learning the ways of the magic of Gaia. After the orb of magic in town is taken by monsters your journey begins. The overworld map is how you get around, much like Chrono Trigger. You find your destination and head inside… However, there is always the chance for a RANDOM ENCOUNTER. In random encounters, there are monsters. You can befriend those monsters and have them fight alongside you. Cool, eh? Of course there are some that can never be tamed, but having those would be unfair. If you’re in the market for a serious RPG, this is it.

Legend of Zelda Ages/Seasons

I’ve always liked the Legend of Zelda, but these games took it to a new level for me. These games are over the head, much like Link’s Awakening and A Link to the Past. In fact, they’re all made by Capcom. Good stuff.

Both the games play fairly similar with one mechanic being different: The Wand of Seasons and the Harp of Ages. The Wand allows you to stand on a stump and change the seasons around while the Harp allows you to travel through time to solve puzzles or give something to someone. The game really uses the special item to death and back… and that’s good. The dungeons are challenging, it’s got classic Zelda puzzles and more secrets than you can shake a Deku Stick at. Get one, the other or both. It won’t matter because you’ll be happy either way.

Pokemon Pinball

Yeah. Pokemon Pinball. This game will rock you. It has a rumble feature, and an awesome feature. You have to catch pokemon by hitting them with the ball in this one. What the hard part is: Making the bastards come out. It’s even hard to catch them all. You gotta go to different towns by doing all this stuff… Man, that game was hard. And I’d do it over

And over.

And over.

I hate you, pinball.

Well, whip out that ol’ GBC and get crackin’!

Till next time!
