    Default What to buy for a Famicom?

    Picked up an AV Famicom today. What exclusive games should I pick up?
    Are there any Famicom versions that are better then NES versions?

    Well, I wouldn't know this first-hand, but I hear that Final Fantasy II and III are good Famicom exclusives, if you can read Japanese.

    Crisis Force is an excellent overhead shooter that's well worth picking up if you can find it. I can't.

    And if you're a Gradius fan (I'm not), you might want to seek out Gradius II.

    Hebereke (aka Ufouria) is quite fun, though you're probably better off with the English version that was released in Europe.

    Spoon, you snag that $60 one on eBay? I was REALLY wanting that, and then forgot when it closed! *sob*

    Crisis Force RULES! I have it. Transformers is cool but VERY hard, and I also recommend the Kuni games, Castlevania 3 (better on the Fami), and there are probably others I can't think of.

    Lol, yeah, spooontoss, that's me. I saw it go up a few days back with a BIN of 99. Decided I would watch it. I put my Bid in around an hour before it ended. I was surprised I won. 60 was my max bid. Looks to be pretty complete. Now I can hook it up with my Disk system.

    Def. Gonna pick up the Fami versions of Castlevania. Want to get all of the Technos games also.

    Arkanoid 2 is a very fun game and a must have. Make sure you get the controller with it since the US controller won't work with the Jpn game. Namcot StarWars is sweet too.

    Splatterhouse: Wanpaku Grafitti - it's hilarious SD action at its finest!
