I wish this game had online multi but it's a fun local couch coop game.
I had a blast with this game, but it takes a certain group of friends to get into it. There is a TON of planning that goes into each level to get 3 stars, and if you don't have friends with good micro-management skills, they will get irritated with the game real fast. I also think this game would be damn near impossible online.

P2P hosting would be fine I think. Random matchmaking would be a nightmare. Criff and Iced Coffee Man from here, my girlfriend and myself played it for about 3-4 hours straight tonight. There was a LOT of yelling and frustration, but in the end we didn't do too bad. If we didn't get 3 stars we'd try again until we got it. A lot further in we gave up on that and mainly aimed for 2 stars. :olol:

I'll probably get the DLC for it when it comes out too.

Alex The Kidd! It is a fun game.

When I was searching Google for Miracle World the other day, someone had it listed as Alex The Kid.

Secret Of Mana (SNES)

Golf (NES)

Ninja Gaiden 2 (Xbox 360)

SECRET OF MANA! In box with instructions & map! AU$89, which for eBay is pretty good. The next cheapest PAL version on eBay is a loose cart that's AU$125.99. The box is a bit squashed and has a Cash Converters sticker on the side but besides that everything looks good.

Golf & Ninja Gaiden 2 are also boxed with instructions. Not as exciting. They also cost a lot less.

with these, why did you even bother with the other games? With these games I'm not even sure what is better, the game play or the soundtrack.

The GB games were a bundle and a lot cheaper than just buying the ones I wanted separately. About $40 cheaper.

Golf & NG2 I actually bought last week but hadn't posted about them. Both are good games and were cheap.

And the Secret Of Mana soundtrack is amazing.

I hired it a few times and liked it. Haven't played it for a while though.
