Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons showed up on eShop yesterday. Anyone pick them up?

Nah, I haven't.

I have the originals right here, and a GBC too, so I can play any of the three GameBoy games whenever I choose too. They're all nicely in their boxes next to each other on the shelf. Even have both the regular Link's Awakening as well as the DX version.

The Oracle games were decent. Way better than the other Capcom attempts (Minish Cap and Four Swords (which sucks)) anyway, however they aren't my favorites. Link's Awakening however, is genius and my second favorite Zelda and thus one of the best games of all time. I'll probably grant that game a Virtual Console purchase someday even though I already own it twice. I have bought it three times actually, but my dog ate my first (DX) cartridge not long after I got it. True story.

I've bought Link's Awakening 3 times myself. I had the original for the GB and then I bought the DX version when it came out. Sadly, I haven't seen mine since my GBC ended up in the possession of my cousins, so I buckled up and bought the VC version once it came out on the e-shop. 

And I agree on it being one of the best LoZ games ever. The story itself is quite intriguing (loved the part when you finally figure out what Koholint Island really is) and it had a pretty good gameplay for it being the first portable Zelda.

I never played DX...is is noticeably better than the original version?
