Some of the Atari Flashback ports are terrible.
The whole console just doesn't work if the controllers are wireless.

Lemme guess, you're talking about the 3rd party Atgames system?

Okay, I guess it'll be wise to avoid anything from Atgames then

I'm sure you had your reasons to consider New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe as a "Worst" port

I heard a lot of positive things about the Deluxe port of MK8!

I may not be a fan of the Strategy RPG type of games atm, but I'm about to play some Heroes of Might and Magic on the (Nintendo) GBC. And read from some YouTube videos saying that this Strategy RPG game is a "Decent" portable port of the original game. But I'll say it's a okay port!

I liked the MK8 port because they added more to it.
(Battle mode, two item boxes, more characters).
NSMBU Deluxe just felt like the same two games with a new character.

You could pretty much just stick with playing NSMBU instead, it's almost the same thing

Oh my god, have y'all played the SNES version of freaking Street Fighter Alpha/Zero 2? Don't! It has some loading in it, and in my opinion, it looks ugly in 16-bits! Like holy shit, it's the #1 WORST Street Fighter game on a freaking Nintendo console/handheld* and rather play Alpha/Zero 1 on the GBC, as it's a 8-bit faithful demake of the original 32-bit arcade game!


*Yeah, it's worst than SF2 on the original Gameboy

Just played some Tekken Advance (It's a port of Tekken 3, but portable!), and I actually enjoyed my play session. Give it a try if you have a on the go 32-bit fighting game crave! ;)

I think heard that Mortal Kombat 1-3 had GB ports, not very good.

For me, Best is Odyssey.
Worst... Mahjong on Atgame's Sega Genesis Classic.

Yeah, but I heard that the Gameboy port of Mortal Kombat II was kind of decent and playable

Um.... What "Odyssey" port were you talking about? I know you weren't talking about Super Mario Odyssey, right?

The GameBoy port of the Toy Story game that was also in the SNES and Genesis. Do i really have to explain how bad is this one? Just watch a longplay and you'll see what im talking about
