FPS - Deus Ex (would love a podcast on this!)

Baseball - World Series Baseball '95 (GEN, GG, 32X, SAT)

RPG - maybe a WRPG for a change? Baldur's Gate (there's a PS1 version unreleased). I am struggling to think of cross platform WRPGs, too. Maybe Morrowind? Again, I am thinking about possible podcast ideas here too...

Puzzle - Columns is fine I guess, but I think something a bit more obscure but still widely ported - like Zoop - might be good too.
How about Puzzle League for Puzzle. Its on SNES, GB, GBC, GBA, DS, DSi and N64 in some form or another off the top of my head.

Also, I was under the impression that Last Blade was rather cost prohibitive.
only Nintendo consoles? is it a Nintendo franchise?

So yes.
There's one on GBA too, under the name columns crown.
I have the GBA version. Didn't even know about the GBC version.

Any thoughts on grandia 2 as a possibility for an RPG?

And yes, the puzzle league series goes by the names tetris attack, pokemon puzzle league, pokemon puzzle challenge, panel de pon and puzzle league. Its slightly confusing, but they all play basically the same.

For RPG I thought of Riveira since it was on GBA and PSP. Had also thought of Yggdra Union for strategy since it's GBA, PSP and DS.

Yggdra union never made it to europe, Riviera did but is PSP only.

Man, europe and RPG publishers really don't get on ¬_¬

I'm not sure how easy it will be to find multi-console, multi-company, multi-region games. :?

Not to mention that GBA and NDS are region-free systems...

Well, theres always Grandia 2, thats why I mentioned it :wink: . But I'd be fine with Riviera tbh, at least it IS available here. Yggdra Union though I'd prefer to not have, because it means I have to try and import to participate.

I'm into Riveira -- it's a beautiful game.

EDIT how does everyone else feel about Riveira?
