Nintendo's Line up *Get Excited*

[Cap'n 1time]

I was looking through Nintendo Power Magazine and I found a list of games EVERYONE should be excited about. I have no idea the release dates of these games, or if all of them will make it to Europe and the USA. If anyone has an idea, please give us an update.

GAME CUBE
Amazing Island - Sega
You create your own 3d monster by drawing outlines of the body parts, then, the game turns your artwork into some remarkable 3-D renders. It has a Single player mode, A multiplayer mode, unlockable monster building features, and some kind of GBA link option.

Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II Plus -Sega
Same great online game, but with more offline features and GBA mini games: Puyo Pop and NiGHTS.
It also has 3 additional quests for episode II, and a 4 player Challenge mode.

also:
Mega Man X: Command Mission
Mobile Suit Gundam
Star Fox
Resident Evil 4
Paper Mario 2

GBA
Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories - Square enix
The game remains shrouded in mystery, but the screenshots look amazing. I read it has some cutscenes that look astonishing (on gba?)

Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django - Konami
In my oppinion the last one blew it. This next game promisses to have a better light sensor, 60 weapons, a large world, and a nice multiplayer mode.

also:
Custom Robo GX
Final Fantasy I& II
Grand Theft Auto
Gundam Seed: Battle Assault
Mario Pinball Land
Mega Man Mania
Metal Slug Advance
Pokemon (Fire Red and Leaf Green)
SD Gundam Force
Tales of Pantasia (YES!)
Tales of the world: Narikiri Dungeon 2

Frogger
Metroid Prime: Hunters
Mobile Suit Gundam Seed
Monster Rancher
Mr. Driller
Need for Speed
One Piece
Pac-Pix

That one got my attention. It may be time for me to actually buy another GBA game. I was always disappointed that Kingdom Hearts was released only on PS2.

I also found some screenies of Mega Man X: Command missions. For some reason the screenshots remind me of phantasy star online.. The lower link has videos.

Nintendo always comes through at crunch time. they just hardly ever have any good 3rd party games the rest of the time. but that's the same with all consoles. christmas is coming.

Oh yeah - and is there any description at all as to what "Mega Man Mania" is going to be? Is it going to be some sort of collection of old-school Megaman titles, or is it going to be a new sidescroller, or is it going to be more of that battle network crap, or what?

Mega Man Mania for GBA is going to be a collection of 5 souped up gameboy and gameboy color Mega Man titles... Sounds lame, but in fact the game boy series, though short, was quite good. It also has some more useless special features. I wish they had put the neogeo megaman fighting game in it.

even though the site calles it Megaman Anniversary Collection the box art says other wise.

Doesn't sound lame to me. I was a huge fan of the Gameboy Megaman titles. That sounds awesome. That's another one I will really look forward to.

It says very clearly In the "Game Watch Forcast" section of Nintendo Power that both Tales of Phantasia and Tales of the World: ND2 are going stateside and probably to Europe. I cant find a website that confirms this though... It kind of makes me nervouse. :(

If your all about Mega Man games (and I know some of you are!) you should know that:

Mega Man X Command Missions will be released in september.

Mega Man Mania will be about in september as well.

Mega Man Zero 3 is expected to be around during the 4th quarter of this year.
