I think I am down to play. Going to do the GBA original on my gb player.

I played through a lot of this game years ago but I honestly cannot remember a thing except that the weapons have limited numbers of use.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I'm glad that this game is getting some credit; it was seriously a unique game that deserves to be played. Same with Yggdra Union.

I bought this game twice. Once for the GBA on day one and the second via the PSN store for the PSP. I liked it and its very unique in its own right.

I ordered this a few weeks back from the US on GBA, but I don't know if it's arrived yet (and won't until I get back to my uni house in a few days. Either way, I probably won't be able to spend any time on it til at least the 10th. Stupid deadlines...

They had this for the GBA at Gamestop yesterday. I guess I'll need to go back and get it.

Wait, the GBA version is not the original, Noise?

Someone really should play that version this month, on original hardware.

I'll give the PSP port a spin...
