Rayman is a REALLY good game. Also, I believe Klonoa is 2D.

"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

I accidentally bought a PSone today, and I though that it may be a good present for my mother on her birthday, but I must know; are there any really good old school platforming games on this console. I mean an par with SMW, Yoshi island and so on? And, another question, is Mickeys Wild Adventure a good game, because I accidentally bought that too.

No PS1 platforming game can match SMW or Yoshi's Island. In fact, none come even close. You will want to try games like Skullmonkeys and maybe Tomba, but they are not in the same league. Castlevania:SOTN is in the same league, but not a platformer per se.

I'd say Tomba and Klonoa. They will both be next to impossible to find!!

Its like this:

*browsing ebay* "Oh, a PSone, no harm done bidding on it just for fun because I won't win it anyway" Then I forget about the auction and get reminded when I get an e-mail saying "Congratulations you won blablabla" Probably because I overvalued it before I placed my bid.

Anyway, thanks for your suggestions!

so you artificially drive prices up on ebay for products you dont want so other people have to pay more for what they desire?

You sir are a very nice person.

@Faxanadu

It's just because I want to inflate the price on my Ebay stocks :D

No, I only bid on stuff that I want, but that does not mean that I count on getting it.
I usually place bets (under my perceived market value) on all the stuff that I somewhat want. Like bidding $30-50 on DSes same on Wiis and 1-5$ on lots of NES games. So, I HOPE that I will win the stuff because of odd ending times, right time in the month and so on but I don't COUNT ON winning it. Big difference.

Ape Escape. I know it's not old school, but it's the best platformer I've played outside of Mario.
