Does anyone still play Dr. Mario.

I am a hardcore addict, not to mention a golden god.

NES? SNES? N64? Emulators?

Maybe it'll come out on the Wii?

If you've got a PS1/PS2, try finding Puzzle Fighter. That's crack-ish too.

SNES/Genesis, try finding Kirby's Avalanche/Dr. Robotnic's Mean Bean Machine. They're both rebranded versions of Puyo Puyo, a sweet little puzzler made by Compile (who made some *wonderful* shooters back during the 16-bit era).

NES emulator, yes.

And I'd love to have Dr. Mario for my GBA.

As of today I am 0 and 1123812348 against my wife.
She's like some kind of machine designed to rule at Dr. Mario.

My girlfriend introduced me to the game, but I have surpassed her in skill level.

I played with my friends the other day (we were a little intoxicated), and like every single move I made they screamed "Oh my God! That is unbelievable."

My friend Rob said "You know the way our brain automatically understands human speech, and converts our thoughts to human speech? Well your brain does that with Dr. Mario."

I think it is because I have played it a ton, but also it is the specific kind of puzzle game that really clicks with my mind.

There is a Dr. Mario for GBA, as well as a Dr. Mario & Puzzle League.

I am not sure from your post whether you meant you wish they'd come out with it, or you just wish you had it.

The latter.

Although I do wish they'd made an actual GBA version, rather than just re-releasing the NES game for the GBA (at full price, I might add) and then a slight update in a double-feature (the other half of which I have no interest in).

I saw the double feature SUPER cheap on ebay.

actually I've gotten a butt ton of super cheap gba games off of amazon's secondary sellers list thing. I usualy check there before I hit up ebay.

I never buy anything on the 'net, though.

(And if I did, with the vast majority of eBay or Amazon sellers the shipping to Finland would cost more than the thing itself...)

No international shipping or border fees if it's already in the country. :)

Dr. Mario on GBA is such a rip-off... get Wariorware and you can unlock the dang thing, plus have tons of other stuff to do as well.

Mainly, I'm just making excuses because I plain enjoy buying things in person. And complaining. :p
