ccexplore (not logged in)(Guest)	02 Dec 2005 21:33:56 Re: Lemmings NES My impression, based on playing the NES version on an emulator and seeing screenshots of the GameBoy version on deveria.com/alexis, is that the NES and GameBoy version are probably pretty much identical. The NES version is not as bad as I thought. Some of the graphics are even strikingly good for an NES. But I definitely prefer the more responsive gameplay of the normal versions. It can be somewhat more challenging than the normal versions, but for mostly bad reasons. For example, when you pause the game, the only thing you can do is to move the cursor around, you can't even change the currently selected skill while pausing. And skill assignments are not instantaneously, they almost seem location-based, meaning that once you assign a skill, the old skill seems to need to be carried out to a certain point before the new skill kicks in. Oh, and the falling distance is shorter--Fun 3 for example the only survivable fall is off the lowest platform above the exit.

Jazzem	02 Dec 2005 23:21:05 Re: Lemmings NES They must be near-identical then, the Fun 3 thing is exactly the same on GB Lemmings. You're right about the skill-location, it can get annoying when you want to place blockers at the end of a platform too, since the lemming may not respond in time and will plummet. It does add challenge though, and it makes you take into note about where a lemming will do the skill (This seems to be required for "They just keep on coming", since you have to place a builder accurately at one point). You can kiss precision-clicking goodbye though! Is the NES version simply a matter of clicking on desired skills as normal? For the GB, you have to hold down B and select a skill with the D-pad, which is seemingly done due to the GB's small screen size. Going off topic quite a bit, are Master System/Game Gear Lemmings identical? I haven't used my Game Gear in a while, so I'm considering it.

Apologies, I meant to ask whether Game Gear Lemmings is identical to MS Lemmings. I think they can have up to 20 lemmings, and if I remember correctly there's a 2player mode aswell.
