~Metroid Fusion: Got it already.

 

~Mario Vs. Donkey Kong: Meh. Can't say I care either way that strongly.

 

~Minish Cap: YESSSSS. I have been hunting a copy of this for the past two years ever since I lost my GBA copy before I finished it. Sweet, sweet closure will finally be mine. For reference, used copies still go for $30, and new copies are upwards of $100, so this is a healthy chunk of the $100 I spent early off right there for me.

 

~Fire Emblem: This is another one I have. Unlike Metroid Fusion, I have almost beaten it about a half dozen times, kinda beaten it once(The battery died as I was on the ending cutscene, and somehow the save file got corrupt before I could pick back up), and I'm on another playthrough right now of my old GBA copy. But I love the Fire Emblem series, so I am overjoyed to see an entry in the series on here, albeit I would've preferred Sacred Stones since I haven't played my copy of that for the GBA yet. Either way though, so extremely happy that this often-overlooked-in-the-states franchise got on here. Disregard most of that sentence, I proved my illiteracy by mixing up the title. It indeed is Sacred Stones, I am so excited. :D

 

~Mario Kart Super Circuit: Admittedly, I don't really care about this one since Mario Kart 7 is out, and I plan to buy it once I figure out how to get a 360, Mass Effect again, Mass Effect 2 again, Mass Effect 2 DLC, beat both before ME3 comes out, and ME3 collector's edition, and I have Mario Kart DS(Which, by the way, is still selling new, almost seven years after its release, for $10 less than its successor. How's that for staying power?), so this really doesn't garner any interest from me. Would've loved another awesome GBA game here, like Advance Wars or a special edition of Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire that can be played as either, or something. Heck, Metroid Zero Mission would've been a cool swap-in.

 

~Kirby and the Amazing Mirror: I think I had either this one or Nightmare in Dreamland. I don't remember, but I do know one day I couldn't find it just like Minish Cap, and I never finished it even though I was knocking on the door of the final boss, so this is another one I like to see.

 

~Wario Land 4: It's a Mario game, but with Wario from what I gather? I don't really know enough about this one to give a strong opinion one way or the other.

 

~WarioWare Inc.: Minigames! I'll take it as a fun time-killer, something that Super Mario Bros. has been serving as on my 3DS until now.

 

~Super Mario Advanced 3: Yoshi's Island: My brother had this one, and I was always grabbing at it trying to play when I was a kid. Fairly happy with this one.

 

F-Zero: Maximum Velocity: Not sure if I like this or not, never played an F-Zero game before. We'll see what happens.

 

Overall, pretty happy with it. Given there's another Mario Kart just released for it, and the juggernaut of Mario Kart DS is still being sold, I would've kiled to see MKSC swapped out with something else, but all-in-all, I'm happy with my ten free games, ten just in time for the holidays.

0_o You do realize this is Sacred Stones... Right? xD

 

I kinda agree about Mario Kart(I have DS, so it is kinda weird to go back to Super Circuit after playing it. =P), but this was certainly a very good bunch of games, all in all. And since I've only played Minish Cap, I'm very happy(And currently playing Fusion, since it's awesome. =D)

Wait, it is? I must've misread, let me get my Bison Face.

Yep, it's Sacred Stones. I wasn't sure which one Sacred Stones actually was, until they showed the characters in the title thing, and I recognized pretty much all of them. xD

 

But yeah, it is Sacred Stones. And Fire Emblem in general getting on here is awesome; I've always wanted to play one of the games. =)

So Jealous~

I found Sacred Stones in the back corner of a Gamestop during the Christmas break last year and played it with religious abandon untill my save file got deleted. I can't even bring myself to start the game anymore; it hurts too much.

P.S. Warioland is a lot of fun. It's still platformer, but it's very much it's own beast due to Wario's. . . unique personality.

Warioland certainly is unique, I'll give you that much.

 

It's some weird fusion between Metroid platforming(With the charges and such), Mario platforming, and a gem system reminiscent of if Zelda's rupee system met Mario's score system. =P

The only Wario game I ever played was awesome. I forget which one it was by name, but I know it involved a pyramid, goofy bosses, and was on the GBA.

 

As for F-Zero, GX on the Gamecube was pretty cool. You could make a custom vehicle that could fly. I had so much fun with that.

Yep, that's Warioland 4.
