Metroid Fusion looks lovely on the TV, but that's the only GBA game I have.

I have a bunch because the GBA is probably my favorite console of all time, and they look fine (but worse than SNES). I mostly play them on the GamePad though, which is awesome. My fiancée can watch the TV, I throw some headphones on the GamePad and get lost in a GBA game.

While I know bullshit hyperbole is just kinda your "thing", this is so far from the truth to just not even be amusing.

Quake 3 arena for the Dreamcast has more settings, weapons, stages, and modes than Splatoon. This is not a hyperbole, this an absolute fact.

Jivjov emerges, holding taint reaper's severed head. He places it on an amiibo stand.

So? Since when is "number of modes/guns/maps" an absolute final measure of quality or dollar value?

Then maybe you should not comment on videogames that your betters clearly have played and can also compare and contrast between the two.

Quake 3 Arena is the hallmark of the shooting genre. All pay tribute to it's greatness. A timeless classic.

Since when does Quake 3 have more guns than Splatoon? It has 9 weapons, last I checked Splatoon has way more than 9.

Sega will probably make more money when they finally release that 3DS Dreamcast theme in the West than they did with any of the games they've released on the U so far.

I am cool.
Quake 3 has more maps than Splatoon but almost all of them are complete garbage that were just thrown in for the campaign and no one ever played them. In terms of actually decent maps there were maybe eight.

So I've heard they finally succeeded in making an OK Adventure Time game? I don't buy licensed games at launch but has anybody played the one that just came out? Will it be worth spending $20 on eventually? How soon do you think it'll reach that price point?
