:up:

Minor tip: You can speed up the scrolling of the bottom line of text (grid mode) by pressing either shoulder button.

The GBA is getting more playtime than any portable I've had. Combination of good games, rechargeability, and *portability*. (Loved the Lynx and Turbo Express, and spent a fair bit of time with the GBC, but the GBASP has the edge.) WarioWare has been hogging the cart slot for the past several days. But I *am* waiting for Jet Grind Radio to come out next month!!!

Thanks for the $20 BB deal! :thumbsup: Grabbed it today on my lunch break (good thing I keep a coupon in my wallet;)).

This game is hellacool! Really unique and way fun. Finally a game I can start and stop regardless of my subway trip. :lol:

drmoze 05-29-03 03:00 PM

Funny, I do that too, on my short 4-stop subway ride! Esy to get in a couple of grid games. Also, if you're in the middle of a series, just pause it and turn off the backlight (on an SP). Makes it even easier to pick up and play when you get good scores.

I am PRAYING that this turns out good. JGR is probably one of my favorite games of all time, and the reason I bought a Dreamcast and Xbox. I was so upset when Smilebit said there would not be a 3rd game, so this is all I've got left. Please THQ, I know it's hard for you to make a good game, but PLEASE do this right.

PixyJunket 05-29-03 03:19 PM

As for my progress on the game, I almost have all the grid games opened up. I have two blank spaces on my desktop so I'm hoping there are some really good last 2 unlockable games. I'm still working on trying to break 100 on any of the levels. Hehe.

MrKen 05-29-03 09:53 PM

I have 3 blank spaces I think. Bottom left, the space above Dr Wario, and top right.

Do you have any of those?

Also, do you know this game would be illegal to sell to minors in Washington State? Violence to the police in level 3! Really!

PixyJunket 05-29-03 10:09 PM

The space above Dr Wario is Fly Swatter, I think you have to get so many wins in one of the Jimmy Levels. The very Top Right is VS Hurdle I think you get that just by finishing one of the regular levels..?

I am missing the 2 spots in the lower left corner.. :/

Keyser Soze 05-30-03 10:48 PM

What coupon are you guys talking about to get it down to 20 bucks?

The ubiquitous BB $5 off coupons - you can get them with the gamer's gift card. Just buy a GC for a penny or some low amount and use the coupon. They're usually near the videogame shelves.

Forgive Keyser he's new ;)

They are Pyoro and Pyoro 2. Unlock all minigames for Pyoro, and then get all the high score flowers for Pyoro 2.

Currently I'm only missing Pyoro 2 (just unlocked Hard mode).

Wow... nice scam!

I picked up a gift card, then had my BB pricematch our local Fry's weekend ad:

22.99
-5.00 coupon
----------------
17.99 + tax.

Thanks for the info on the gamecard! I picked up a few extras just in case BB gets smart on what people are doing (buying it for a penny and all).

Got some extras lined up for their next video game ads. ;)

I tried to pricematch and use the coupon, but my local BB doesn't let that happen - otherwise i'd have picked it up for the same price you did. Oh well...still a good deal.

MrKen 06-02-03 10:47 AM

I've got everything but the space between Wario and 2P Hurdles.

Anyone know whats up there?

PixyJunket 06-02-03 10:56 AM

Hard Mode, beat Thrilling Mode and get 15 points.

Man.. is Pyoro 2 worth the effort? I have about the first 3 levels worth of medals but man, that's tedious, I much more enjoying playing the game with random game thrown at me..

Sherbz 06-02-03 03:32 PM

I've heard it's much better than Pyoro I, so I'm slowly working at it, but I wouldn't put too much effort into it.

CreatureX 06-13-03 04:36 PM

I finally picked up this game a few days ago. Wow! -eek- This is one of the best portable games I have ever played. Leave it to Nintendo to release something as great as this!

What are some of your current high scores? Here are a few of mine:

Jump Forever: 153
Skating Board: 154
Paper Plane: 124

:)

Ralph Wiggum 06-13-03 05:34 PM

I'm only one micro game away from unlocking Pyoro 1. So close...

PixyJunket 06-13-03 05:42 PM

I'm about ~70 medals away from Pyoro 2.

take your time.. Pyoro 1 is much more fun i think.

darkside 06-13-03 11:50 PM

Really happy with this game. I played it non stop for three days and I finally unlocked everything. Great original idea from Nintendo.

BTW, I prefer the seed spitting of Pyoro 2 to the tongue in Pyoro 1. Its worth unlocking IMO.

PixyJunket 06-14-03 01:39 AM

Funny I should check this thread cause my friend is playing Wario Ware and I was telling him to play some of the games I haven't yet hehe. :)

GatorDeb 07-08-03 10:44 AM

I cannot believe this game. I unlocked Dr. Wario! Just that one game is well worth $10. This is one of the best game purchases I've ever made.

Could anyone let me know what I'm missing and how to get it? I need the square above Dr. Wario, the square to the left of Chiritorie (three squares above Dr. Wario) and the square above Pyoro.

Thanks! :)
