The second Metroid game, developed from the ground-up for Nintendo's black & white handheld, takes place some time after the NES original. Samus flies to the home planet of the Metroids, SR-388, an unstable place racked by earthquakes and torrents of lava. Many powerful breeds of Metroid thrive here and in the cavers below the surface. Samus roots them all out, eventually destroying the Metroid Queen. A baby Metroid hatches immediately after the battle and imprints upon Samus. Thinking Samus is her mother, it helps her escape. Samus then turns the hatchling over to the Galactic Federation, thinking that researching it might prove fruitful. Gameplay itself is classic sidescrolling, shooting, and puzzle solving, with plenty of alien encounters.

The original KIRBY'S DREAM LAND was kid-friendly, with its difficulty setting stuck on "Easy." In the smash-hit sequel, KIRBY'S DREAM LAND 2, the gameplay is still fun for all ages but the puzzles are much more challenging and will keep experienced gamers happy. KIRBY'S DREAM LAND 2 consists of seven island levels, and each time Kirby reaches a new level he's given several doors to choose from each one hides a sub-level. When all these are completed, the door leading to the boss is unlocked. Because KIRBY'S DREAM LAND 2 is much longer and more challenging than the first title, the game is battery backed and saves automatically as you progress. Kirby's powers have also been increased; now when he swallows a foe he absorbs his powers powers he'll need to defeat the final boss Dark Matter!

It's hard to believe that these titles are only 10 years old, considering how far role-playing games have come over the years. In fact, Dragon Warrior actually defined the beloved RPG genre for video game consoles. It began the whole system of turn-based battles against monsters, land roaming, and building character experience through fighting. And, now, all of this is back for younger players to enjoy for the first time, and for older players to relish once again. It must be stated that these games, while they have been improved, are essentially the same as they were earlier, with these exceptions: names of people and places have been altered--which will disappoint only those who have played the originals--and the graphics are more detailed than before. The differences between the two titles play almost like a history lesson in RPGs. In the first game, players travel as a single character who's set to rescue a princess and slay a dragon. In the second game, players manage a party of four heroes, each of whom has his or her own unique talents in magic or weaponry (or both). The game pits them against multiple enemies at a time, as opposed to a single foe. Also, the addition of a save-anytime feature eliminates needless retread. Overall, Dragon Warrior I & II is a great value, and perfect for anyone who's interested in taking a trip, whether it be cross-country or down memory lane. --Robb Guido Pros: Brings back memories of the old days Focus is on gameplay Cons: Simplistic by today's standards of graphics and story Lots of wandering
