New Crystalis GBC details, screen shots

[12.22.99] » The classic Nintendo Entertainment System action RPG returns to the Game Boy Color with limited speech and animated cut-scenes.

   As confirmed by the GIA back in May, Nintendo is planning to re-release the classic NES action RPG Crystalis for the Game Boy Color. The game is now slated for release sometime in March 2000, and will feature a number of new enhancements, such as animated cut-scenes, recorded speech, and minor graphical enhancements. 22 screen shots of the game are available below -- for the most part, Crystalis remains faithful to the original.

   For those not familiar with the classic hit, Crystalis is a fantastic top-down, hack-and-slash action RPG which takes place in a post-apocalyptic world. In the game, a massive war has wiped out much of human civilization, and you must combat mutated animals and other foes to save the day.
