Mine too, it was my very first game on the GameBoy.

I actually never owned Super Mario Land 2 when I was little. I played it at a friend's house, and I eventually bought it a couple of years ago, but back when the GameBoy was actually relevant, I didn't have it.

I was stuck with Super Mario Land 1.

I own it but never got far. How does it compare to the other mario games in general and how does it compare to that of the first gb one?

The timing's really poor. There is just too much to play right now. And I'm not even talking about the other consoles or the 3DS: there are 3 retail DS games that came out or are coming out in the span of a month that I don't want to miss. Add to that the other systems and, yeah, it's pretty rough.

I could buy the game, but I'd probably end up playing it for 3 levels and then move on, and forget about it.

Only because I knew I would be done with it in an evening! EscapeVektor is a little bit more daunting to learn and to master, especially since it has apparently more content.

If it make you feel any better, I didn't (and probably won't) buy Super Mario Land 2.

Positive impressions would be nice! And, I'm not getting SML2...I'll be downloading 3D Classics Twinbee this week.

For a lot of people that grew up with the Game Boy, SML2 is one of the better games on the system. For me personally, I lent it to a friend about 18 years ago and never got it back, so the asking price was worth it.

@Simbabbad

What is this game? I can't really figure it out. Is it a Pac-Man clone? With vector graphics? Or something?

@Simbabbad

That didn't help me out too much. I'm still confused!

... well, I do have 500 Points sitting on my Wii Shop Channel right now, doing nothing. I suppose I could check this out myself. I kinda want to keep my attention focused on Moto Heroz though. Hmm. Decisions, decisions...!

Another EscapeVektor review, another 9/10 score... from IGN this time!

Looks like I won't be able to escape the hype.

Eh? Yes?

Wow, so escapeVektor turned out to be a great game? Looks like I have a new Wii title to play. Nice.

Will it have more chapters on Wii though? I kind of mostly expect this one to completely tank at this point, wonder if it will be worth continuing.

I'll probably get escapeVektor. The impressions and reviews seem really good so far. Kind of snuck up out of nowhere.

@Zero

Even if it tanks before we get more chapters: it's $5. A third of Motoheroz's price.

@Guillaume Hey I said I'll buy it! I'm just wondering if it makes sense to start a series so late in the life cycle of WiiWare. But if nothing else the second episode would be cheaper to produce, I'd imagine.
