+atari2600land Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I just got a Bandai Wonderswan Color in the mail today. It came with three games, two of which are wrestling games mostly in Japanese, and the other is GunPey, which I have on the DS somewhere. What are your recommendations on the Wonderswan? I want to get the Mr. Driller game. Slim pickings from U.S. sellers on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Usotsuki Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 "GunPey", eh? Didn't think he was the type to name a game after himself. XD; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killersquirel Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 "GunPey", eh? Didn't think he was the type to name a game after himself. XD; He didn't. It was named after him as a tribute after he died. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BawesomeBurf Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 (edited) Well if reading Japanese isn't a problem, the Final Fantasy ports are great, and I believe they are what the Origins versions on PS1 are based off of. The Super Robot Compact games are also very good. A couple of good games that don't require knowledge of Japanese are Shanghai Pocket and XI (sai) Little. Also, if money isn't an issue, you could get yourself a copy of the shoot em up called Judgement Silversword. On a side note, every time I order a WS game from Japan, the sellers always seem to include some kind of card with it. So far I have gotten a One Piece card, 1 from Super Robot Wars, and 2 others that I'm not familiar with.

empsolo Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 It's not cheap but i do heartily recommend the Wonderswan version of Megaman and Bass. It even has a few levels that use the Wonderswan's portrait mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 A nice way to start would be the wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WonderSwan_games https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WonderSwan_Color_games There are some serious gems in there, language barrier on some but not all. I could start pointing out highlights, but most are obvious if you skim both those lists as they're popular/known franchise games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I wasn't aware there was a color version of the wonderswan. I don't have many games, due to it never being us-i-fied, it's mostly japanese, so I rarely play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthkur Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Crazy Climber and Makaimura (Ghosts 'N Goblins) are really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
