Well, I played Joust and it was cool at the time, but once Balloon Fight came into the mix, there was no looking back. I loved that game a lot! Heh, Burg picked the GBC version awhile back...maybe I should offer to trade with him.
Joust
Balloon Fight
Which do you like more? Williams' Joust or Nintendo's Balloon Fight?

Balloon Fight, most definitely. That screenshot alone brought back a lot of memories and it may have been the first game I've ever played.

Hehe...Incidentally, I think Joust was the first game I ever played.
They had the cabinet at the club house of the apartments I used to live at when I was about five. I sucked at it because I really had no idea how to play it.
I've never played Balloon Fight, so my vote goes for Joust.
Edit - Actually, I think I've played the NES port of Balloon Fight. Is it faithful to the arcade version?
if ya see a sucker, cut him, don’t like perpetrators

The arcade version of Balloon Fight is basically identical to the NES one.

Um, yeah. Joust, no question.
What's with all you schmucks voting for Balloon Fight? Have you no reason?

as chibi nappa said in my old "greatest game ever made" poll:
'balloon fight. It's like joust, only fun.'
something like that. I loved one, never really got into the other.
I voted for Joust. Balloon Fight is a very worthy Joust-clone but it's not quite as cool.
explaination? fred?
Balloon Fight.
the control, better
It's a mirror image!

I still don't. I think. Actually, the last time I tried it I might've actually managed to hurt something, but I simply never sat down adn tried to figure out how it works.Originally posted by ruhztee

You bounce on top of the others to hurt them, right?
