They're saving it for an E3 reveal where they'll announce a new Blinx. In the same way that Nintendo hasn't added Earthbound or SMRPG to the SNES Online for the Switch yet.

i'm really glad i didnt have an xbox until college because i only got one issue of game informer ever (some promotion when i bought the BOF2 gba port i think) and it's one of the ones where they go gaga over a preview build of blinx. i got crazy fuckin hype over it and i remember begging my mom for an xbox so i could play it

while looking for a pic i found out it was marketed as a sequel to another GBA Battlebots game but in reality was just the exact same game with a few bug fixes lol

this was a great game for couch co-op because KURT ANGLE JUST GRABBED the commentary was so badly programmed that it was basically just good ol' J.R. screaming random sentence fragments during THE TWISTY ROCKETS! your conversations

I "bought" this after renting it from hollywood video on my college roommates card and forgot to return it and then a year later when he was trying to buy a house with his new wife he had a ding on his credit from it and he called me to yell at me about it. I had to find the game went to take it back and at that point they don't let you pay the fine they make you buy it at those exorbitant rental store prices, I think I had to pay 100 dollars for it.

this happened to my parents at blockbuster with, of all games, Darius Twin lmao. my dad refused to pay it so there was a period of time when we just went to a a different rental place that was kind of a hole in the wall instead, until i was old enough to get my own card.

i actually still had the darius twin cartridge until just before the pandemic when i sold it, with the blockbuster tags still on it, to a vintage store.

it's a middling shmup IMO but my brothers and i were really into it, we all had nicknames. i was The Undertaker because i covered the bottom of the screen, the middle brother was Laser, and my youngest brother was Protector because he sucked at the game so we just made him fly in front of us so he'd get hit first.

It ended up being fine, besides me being embarrassed at Hollywood Video for having to lay out one hundred dollars for a lovely game I played for maybe 2 hours

This game was weirdly fascinating and ambitious. Probably not good but it was my first game that did metal gear style stealth and I feel like it really pushed the hardware

100% it has the heart of a champion, and I respect it immensely for that despite everything else.

Perfect Dark takes advantage of every aspect and peripheral of the GBC. Coming on a rumble cartridge, the game supports IR data transfer, link cable multiplayer, the Game Boy printer for hardcopy character profiles, the N64 Transfer Pak for unlocking cheats in the N64 game; if the GBC could do it, Perfect Dark does it. There’s even clean voice acting in the cutscenes, something a lesser developer wouldn’t even dream of implementing.

My Life as a Darklord is one of those tower defense games where you manage floors of a tower and fill them with monsters to stop heros from reaching the top, it's very similar to Monster Train, and it's not too bad.

My Life as a King is the sequel and it's a town/hero management game where you sit around and do nothing while heroes bring you back gold and materials, and it gets incredibly grindy if you don't shell out like 50 more dollars for the DLC Hero Buildings. I think I got about halfway through the 'progression' before i realized what a waste of time it was, and I had very low standards when it came to spending my time on a game.

edit: You might also be thinking of Little King's Story which was a kind of Pikmin like game, which was very good but also pretty difficult.
