I feel extrememly happy at the moment, I have just found Mario Kart for my GBA (I lost it like 4 months ago) and have been playing it all morning. Mario kart rocks, seriously rocks! Fun, addicitive, challenging and requires alot of skill.

I'm considering keeping my GBA, but I need you lot to help me with a few things involving the GC/GBA. I currently have Mario Kart, Tony Hawks 2 and Breath of Fire.

Questions I need answering: -

1.Is the GBA worth Keeping?
2.What link up games are there between the GC/GBA
3.Is Metroid Fusion any good?
4.When is Mario Kart GC coming out?

I'm looking forward to getting my GameCube the most...

Also, i'd like to show off my Mario Kart scores, Try and beat em :)

Mario GP mode - 50cc: -

Mushroom Cup - **
Flower Cup - **
Lightning Cup - **
Star Cup - **
Special Cup - C

Mario GP mode - 100cc: -

Mushroom Cup - **
Flower Cup - *** (YES! triple star :P)

Also, In time trial mode, On "Bowser Castle 1" I have got an impossible to beat time of 49.06 seconds (All 3 laps!)

On a non Nintendo related topic, I received Splinter Cell today (for the Xbox) So this weekend is gonna rule!

I was playing the demo today and it flippin rocked. The move where he jumps up the walls and does the splits at the top is cool, but looks kinda painfall. Doesn't help when you get shot where it hurts either :S

Mario Kart details are being announced in February

I expect Belldandy will pop in soon to say it's crap and the GC will fail unless they announce details now.

Without a doubt. There are so many games out that are enjoyable, and just wait until Zelda comes out here. I had it on the SNES, imported it on GBA this week, and haven't put it down. I can't believe I sold my SNES, and that was the one game I really missed, but I have it back again. WOO! And the mulitplayer will rock!

Well, so far, there's only Sonic, but Metroid (I think, maybe not) zelda definately links up and there's rumours of Sonic advance 2 and the new sonic adventure on GC to link up together. It seems the Link cable will become a vital part of your GC/GBA experience.

I played on my friends, and was blown away. it rocks. I'm going to get it for Crimbo. :D

No such plans at the moment, but it IS in development, and is rumoured to be able to be played online. I expect it t be released in japan in the next 1/2 years or so, and then USA and us shortly after.




Hope it helped! :D

I didn't finish reading the topic, but I reply because you must get -

Golden Sun and Metroid.

Golden Sun is superb, on par with the creative and brilliance of Morrowind.

Metroid is just.. well... METROID!!!
