I know I'm a bit crazy in doing so, but I've just got myself the entire NES collection including the GBASP :|

My brother bought me two of the games for me birthday (which was a while ago) and today I impulse bought the rest as well as trading in my blue SP.

I'm happy with my purchases but admit am slightly mad.

Yes, because it has been upgraded Graphically and I haven't played it before unlike the other NES game.

Super Mario Advance 4 is Super Mario Bros 3 - the best selling game on the NES and correct me if I'm wrong, the best selling game of all time.

I'm not a massive retro fan, it isn't my type of thing. I like new games, remember i'm only 14 so when the NES was out I was very young.

The NES games are class! Xevious and Excitebike are the worst two though.

As for Super Mario Bros, the save features of All Stars and the GBC version ruined the game - made it too easy.

I've ordered the NES SP and i'm still waiting for it.

I should get it on Monday.

I dont like any of the NES GBA games that much so I got Mario 4 instead.

Dr. Mario so far isn't in the collection.

So Animal Crossing has Xevious, Pac-man and Bomberman?

hmm....

Anyway, been playing them all on and off...so far my most played is the original Bomberman - it's had more use than my GBA version of Bomberman released a couple years ago!

I too have been infected with the desire to buy the NES version and the games... start of the week I was getting the GBA and two games, now I've bought the GBA, 6 games, Boktai, FF Tactics, Sword OF Mana, Link To the Past, Mario 4....

Anyone played Excitebike or Bomberman? These are only 2 I dont have.

Animal Crossing has them all.. and if you got Dr. Mario you could have just got Wario Ware instead as that has it on it.
