Sep. 30th, 2008 05:59 amAll the bosses at the end of Moon Flower Palace were easy enough for me to take on, what with some of my weapons (especially the Grade Zero) being extremely powerful. I still lost to the Dark Element, though, because there's a time limit and he's invincible half the time. I just had to knock off the last centimeter of his life bar, but didn't get a chance to do so. Oh well, I've been playing Dark Cloud 2 long enough, and I decided I wasn't gonna put myself through all that again for now.
Jake showed me some website about someone's gameplay experience with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon for the Game Boy Advance. I read the first two entries, and the Meowth coincidentally also happens to go by the name Jake. He then told me that he wants to write a fanfic for it, but has had trouble deciding on each member for his party. I rolled some dice to decide for him after we signed off, but I'll let it be a surprise for when we meet again on MSN.

I've looked up Game Boys and Game Boy games on Ebay, and for the most part, even game lots for the Game Boy go for less than ten dollars. However, I still hesitate to buy anything because I haven't even gotten my first paycheck for the semester, and the Game Boy Color and even the Game Boy Advance have backwards compatibility. I don't even own a that many games for the GBC, GBA, or the Nintendo DS, nor did I own more than four games for the Game Gear before I got rid of it more than a decade ago. I remember feeling similar nolstalgia for volumes 69 through 79 of Nintendo Power (the first year's worth of NP magazine that I ever read), but that didn't take long to wear off. Therefore, I've set some criteria to fulfill before I decided to buy a regular Game Boy and a whole bunch of games for it:
1) Chronicles of 7th Grade is completed.
2) Wario Land on the Virtual Boy is completed.
3) Getter Love!! still hasn't reappeared on Ebay.
4) Enough time has passed for me to get at least one paycheck.
5) I'm still nolstalgic for the days of the Game Boy.
So, I downloaded the game and a Virtual Boy emulator called Red Dragon while I was at work (yes, during my shift, as my supervisor had nothing left for me to do during the last half hour, and I dare not try this at home anymore). I even tested it out at the library, but there are a few inconveniences with it, which I'll go into soon enough.
Okay, let's look over each Wario game in existence (minus the Wario Ware subseries and spinoffs such as Wario Blast and Wario Woods):
