OP, I was thinking about getting a rebuilt GBC myself. How's the quality? I'm concerned a GBC with 100% new pads, buttons, and shell will feel 'off'. How's yours and what seller did you go with?

oh damn, those are more expensive than the ones I was looking at but if they've sold 500+ of them they can't be too bad. Make a new thread when it arrives, hombre. I'm not buying any new shit until after I move, but a 'new' GBC is on the list.

>Lufia III

This for sure. The GBC spinoffs of Lufia, Star Ocean, and Grandia are criminally overlooked and a real shame they never got brought over to the west. Amazing handheld RPGs. Unfortunately Star Ocean is still French only I think.

Also I liked Azure Dreams GBC better than the PS1 version, but that's a pretty commong suggestion for a GBC game.

100% true; No Nintendo handhelds until the DSi have it. GB, GBC, GBA, and DS have no region lock at all.

>> No.4829204

the problem with Lufia III are the dungeons and the inventory system. The combat mechanics are awesome, but those random generated towers are awful boring, and the menus are dreadful, almost as bad as the first breath of fire.

An extra dungeon with red or blue armor, collecting photographs, and a slightly different perfect ending.

DX has some censorship. Only few details, but I prefer the old version. Because I bought it day one and played and re-played it during years.

Censorship details : Miss Hippo's boobs, the mermaid's bikini and I may forget other ones.

Ghost Babel is by far the best game on the system. And there are a lot of good games.

Agreed. Definitely better than the first Metal Gear and maybe just as good as Metal Gear 2.

I was thinking of getting one next week for 60$,does it hold up for price any shoddy work or weirdness to the controls?

along with link's awakening for the original gameboy instead of DX

If the GBC only had DK94 and Links Awakening it would still be one of the best consoles of all time.
