Best Marvel Gameboy Games

Great for collectors (Gameboy Advance System sold seperately)this is the Gameboy Advance version (Not A Wii Game)Great for all ages (Works only on the Gameboy Advance and later Gameboy models only)The Invincible Iron Man is one of the better examples of how a comic book should be transformed into a video game. The basic design has you traveling sideways, upward, and back and forth throughout massive levels full of armed opponents. You can use Iron Man's repulsor blasts and shoulder tackle to knock out his enemies, but each use drains a little bit more of the costume's energy. When the energy is depleted, you'll need to collect energy items scattered throughout the level or wait for the suit to recharge. This adds a decent amount of strategy to the whole process, as you can easily run out of energy during a skirmish with multiple opponents or end up forced to recharge in an unsafe area. There are also power orbs located in various areas, which you can collect in order to unleash a massive chest-mounted cannon or to detonate a bomb that clears the entire screen of enemies. Iron Man's jump ability is actually a boost that you can use in combination with the shoulder tackle in order to fly short distances. There are many areas where you can employ this technique, which suggests that the developers took their time to consider the character's powers instead of just pasting him into a generic template.Hard to find video game (Gameboy version)Like the overall gameplay, the presentation is pretty slick. Comic book dialogue scenes introduce the characters and advance the plot at appropriate moments, while the backgrounds are downright gorgeous. The levels are set in military, jungle, snow, and factory environments. The environments all have multiple background layers, and the amount of incidental detail is exceptional. For example, you can interact with trees in the jungle environment in order to create new passageways.
