 | | In addition to the Classic NES Series, Jaleco, Atlus, and Hudson Soft released their own collections of their old Famicom games. | | | Some reviewers were also annoyed at small problems in the Series; high scores are not automatically saved, for instance (the player must save it manually), and while Castlevania had a save feature, it was also manual as well. | | | A special edition Game Boy Advance SP, which has a similar design to a NES/Famicom controller, was released to go along with these games. |

| | Bomberman (Classic NES Series) (gba: 2004): Reviews |
| | A classic game that didn't age as well as we had hoped, Bomberman is a must-have game for those who know they must have it. | | | The Classic NES version of Bomberman is a great game. | | | My other issue is that Bomberman wasn't that great a game to start with and there's no multiplayer, which is sure to cause some gamers to scratch their heads. |

| | Classic NES Series: The Legend of Zelda - GameBoy Advance Review |
| | OK, it’s not a great story, and the game makes no mention of it at all during the game itself, but it did set the stage for the game, which was really the only purpose of the story in games of this era. | | | Well, granted, $20 is a lot for some of these games today (I think I’d be lucky to squeeze $10 out of Ice Climber, personally), the jewel of the series, and easily one of the best games for the NES as a whole, is the original Legend of Zelda. | | | The sound is as true to the original game as the gameplay is. The classic themes come through just as clearly through the GBA speakers as they did through the television once upon a time. |

| | Inside Pulse v2 .::. Review: Castlevania - Classic NES Series (GBA) |
| | Classic games often crossed many boundaries, making them appeal to gaming fanatics of all types. | | | I was pleased that Nintendo was reissuing classic games, but simultaneously infuriated by the fact that there was only one game per cartridge, and and that they were retailing for the ridiculous price of $19.99 each. | | | These are games with no facelifts whatsoever; it's the same stuff you played over a decade ago, and you can get the originals themselves for quite a bit less than buying the GBA versions. |

| | I am honestly not sure if the classic NES version had two-player head to head play, but even if this version does not include that feature, the game is still very addictive and has great replay value. | | | This is a nice Classic NES Game but to be frank, the original version wasn't much so why would this port of the original be any different? | | | As Popo (player two plays as Nana), use your trusty mallet to work your way up the mountain. |

| | While the franchise did get its start on the NES and is highly respected, an avid Bomberman player knows Bomberman did not fully mature as a game until the TurboGrafx-16 and that it is the multiplayer that makes the game at all worthwhile. | | | When Nintendo announced that it was going to be re-releasing some of its NES games for the GBA, I was excited at the prospect. | | | As Namco, Midway, Atari, Activision and Konami offered many of their arcade and classic games in compilations, Nintendo seemed to prefer to look ahead to new games and the steady advancement of their intellectual properties on ever-more-powerful consoles. |

| | Nintendo has invited gamers to scratch that old school itch with this collection of classic NES games that have been faithfully ported to the Game Boy Advance. | | | The classic platformer holds up pretty well after all this time, though some minor technical issues prevent this reissue from being as super as the original game. | | | Unless you're a completist going for the whole Classic NES Series or you're some sort of fiend for the NES version of Pac-Man, this rerelease really isn't worth your time or money. |

| | Ice Climber was a classic NES game that I had always heard of but never played. | | | So in closing, while this is no where near an NES masterpiece it is a pretty fun game and those who grew up with it will probably like the idea of playing it on the gameboy advance. | | | I would recommend that classic NES fans pick this one up when it is released, and I don't think the $19.99 price tag is too much here(unlike Donkey Kong). |

| | To compliment this retro hardware, Nintendo has also launched eight classic NES games that were originally available on the 19-year-old platform. | | | The game looks and sounds just like the original, but veteran players may recall the NES version left out the challenging "pie factory" stage from the 1981 arcade version, so it's not on this new Game Boy title either. | | | The "Classic NES Limited Edition" Game Boy Advance SP ($99.99) resembles the first television console launched in the U.S. by Nintendo in 1985, which quickly rose to success with games such as "The Legend of Zelda," "Donkey Kong" and "Super Mario Bros." |

| | But on top of even these collections of games, toy manufacturers have recently decided to issue classic game controllers with the games built in so all you have to do is hook the joystick up to the A/V jacks in your TV and off you go. | | | New generations of game heads can discover all the old titles mom and dad used to play when they were young scraps looking for thrills in the arcades and on home consoles. | | | Buyers should be informed that what they're getting may in fact be the watered-down original NES version of this game, but in this day and age improvements bringing the game up to its original speed could have and should have been made. |
