Monster Rancher DS uses GBA carts to generate monsters.
The Monster Rancher franchise was mentioned in that NP article I was talking about in my Ninja Gaiden article the other day, and apparently the game was shown by Tecmo the other day at the same time. My only real knowledge of the game is through Paul, who told me under some other context that the PlayStation version of the game used audio CDs to generate monsters that you used in the game. Unsurprisingly, this one will use GBA games plugged into Slot-2 to generate the monsters. How cool is that? Well, yeah, it’s pretty darn cool, and while not terribly surprising, it is terribly satisfying. Rewarding the player for their game stockpiling is a good idea. Of course, I’ve been selling off mine. Here comes that feeling again.
