So if you have only $50 get zelda, because it is a single payment for a great game. But if you have more money to get the GBA games go for the GBP because in the long run you will get more fun out of it. In a perfect world you could get both. Much like me!! Not to brag or anything

its awsome!) the castlevania games are also top shelf, they all get over 9's in reveiws (ive only got the first one how ever, circle of the moon). any of the SNES ports are top stuff, (personally i prefer the snes originals, but thats not for everyone)i love my GBA more than my GCN

I'm going on this really long trip (40 days) and I want some multi-player GBA games to pass the time with my sis... preferably single-pak ones because getting two games for multi-play is just expensive.
I'm asking for the good and the bad outside of my knowledge. I know firsthand that some really suck, like Advance Wars single pak for instance. Other single-paks are really good like Kirby's Adventure and Super Mario Advance 2 is ok.
Thanks in Advance... which could be a very poor pun.
Post by: CHEN on June 25, 2003, 01:23:31 PM
And Advance Wars single-player doesn't suck, I've easily played more than 100 hours with it, just to have every S-Rank in the War room. I still haven't completed it. If you're a strategic nut, this is definately a game for you.
If you like platform games I would choose SMA: Yoshi's Island and for RPG's I would choose Tactics Ogre: Knight of Lodis.
Let me know that you think.
As for me would you choose F-Zero Maximum Velocity (like that name) or Castlevania Circle of the Moon. They're bot great games, but I don't know which game will be more fun. driving at 500 km per hour or vampire-hunting with a whip, hmmm tough choice. Help would be appreciated.
Oh and Nathan, I found Breat of Fire II mediocre, not as good as the first one. The graphics and the translation into English also turns me of. Golden Sun is way better and if you're into strategic RPG's, it will soon be paradise for you my friend.
Post by: nathan on June 25, 2003, 01:55:55 PM
heres the games I want so far, tell me if it sounds pretty good:
Golden Sun
Metroid Fusion
Golden Sun 2
Tactics Ogre
Super Mario World 3
Pokemon Sapphire (just maybe)
Advance Wars
Phantasy Star Collection (maybe)
Breathe of Fire II (if I cant find anything else)
Im not going to buy every game for $30, so I'll buy them in the order of their price-drops, but that is pretty much in the order I want them

So any other good single-pak multiplayer games? How's it work in Super Circuit with one pak anyway? Thanks.
Post by: Odeix on June 25, 2003, 08:15:13 PM
F-Zero: Max Velocity is all about gameplay mastery. Graphics and sound are very good but you are mostly going to be concentrating all your energy on memorizing tracks and perfecting your cornering. I would say it's a hardcore game. I found the learning curve really difficult and eventually returned the game for an exchange but I'm just impatient sometimes... other people can really get into it.

That game just sucks you in, especially on a big screen. I stuck it in at like 4:00 PM for the first time, and then I looked up and it was night-time.
I think there should be a section on PGC dedicated to which GBA games translate well to sit-down console games. To me a game like Wario Ware (which was on display) might be a fun diversion on a handheld to pull out while waiting in line, but I can't see myself honestly sitting down to play it for a long stretch.
The GBP is a must own just for the RPGs though. It transforms the Gamecube from having one of the weakest RPG selections on the market to one of the best.

No, I see what you mean. Recently, my GBA has been getting alot more attention tham my GC, but that's about to change with all the great releases coming out.
For GBA, I reccomendAdvance Wars 2. But be warned, an easy mode would have been welcomed.

Advance Wars 2 (very similar to AW1, but better. Reminds me of red alert)
Contra Alien Wars (insanely hard old school shooter)
MegaMan Zero (very hard but tons of fun)
Zelda/4swords
F-Zero
Bubble Bobble old and new (import)
Metroid Fusion
All three Castelvanias
Golden Sun 1+2
Doom 2
Breath of Fire
Tactics Ogre
Mario Cart
SMA2+3
Tetris Worlds
Worms Blast
Warioware (fun time waster)
IMO, you can't go wrong with any of these games. I own all of them and love all of them. I'm sure there are plenty of others as well, I'm still working on my collection. I have a Flash advance 256 card so I like to download a lot of cool Japanize games too. You can get pretty much anything off the internet if you know where to look. Now I just need to learn Japanise. Anyway, a gameboy flash card is also great because you can load it up with about 6-7 games at a time and then you don't have to cary the individuial paks around.

Tomb Raider Prophecy. I bought this one on one of those days when I was bored and looking for "just a game". What a pleasant surprise it turned out to be. Great atmosphere. Smooth control (for once...unlike the PSX versions)

and if you want a gba game like FF Tactics or Advance Wars, then get Tactics Ogre without question.
it's better than Advance Wars and
allows you to use more units in fights than the original FF Tactics (8 compared to 5).
advance wars is tbs, hitman, ...turn based strategy.
current tbs gba games out:
advance wars
advance wars 2
tactics ogre
next tbs gba games coming:
FF Tactics Advance
Onimusha Tactics

-Chu Chu Rocket is another fantastic GBA game. You can no doubt get it for cheap now (well, cheaper). It's one of the best puzzle games I've ever played, and not to mention the one with the most replay value.
Essentially, you lay arrows to guide mice to rockets (specifically yours), and away from cats. These cats can be sent to other players rockets to destroy some of their mice, too. Whoever has the most mice...wins. Very simple. Until you add in players trying to screw you over by placing their arrows against you, or someone gets a powerup (which occurs when a special mouse enters your rocket) and mice flood the board, or maybe kittens. Or maybe gold mice (worth 50 mice). The multiplayer (which is single-cartridge) is, by itself, worth the purchase, because it is extremely intense and fun.
Also worth noting is puzzle mode, in which you get a limited amount of arrows to get all the mice on screen to the rocket, without a single death. There are thousands of puzzles, and you can also make youjr own! In fact, you can also make your own sprites to replace the chu-chus (the mice). And anything you create, you can also give to other owners of the full game via a link cable. It's one of the best GBA games ever, and certainly worthy of every cent you put into it.
-Advance Wars and Advance Wars 2 both include single-cartridge, single-GBA modes. This mode is just as good as having multiple copies of the game, except you have to hand the GBA off. You can even play fog-of-war with this, if you have honest enough friends (though the same can be said for multiple-GBA mode). Advance Wars 2 is, btw, far and away the better game, with many more CO's, though only one new unit does suck.
-Tactics Ogre is a must-have, as is all the Castlevania games and Metroid Fusion.

Post by: MysticalMatt517 on December 30, 2003, 10:52:56 PM
I thought perhaps I could throw out a list of some of my favorite games and then you could make GBA reccomendations off that? There's so many GBA games out there that it's hard to seperate the good from the bad. I thought perhaps something like this list would give you an insight to my gaming taste.
Favorite Games:
1. Animal Crossing
2. Halo (Yes, I like AC better than HALO...)
3. Roller Coaster Tycoon
4. Descent (1, 2 & 3)
5. Deus Ex: Invisible War
6. Viewtiful Joe
7. Super Smash Brothers Melee
8. Crazy Taxi
9. Morrowind (For about 3 months... Then I got bored)
For those of you puzzled at my list, I just got into gaming in this generation of consoles. I had one of the old chunky gray monochrome "Ghetto Boys" back in the day but growing up my parents thought video games were evil so that's all they let me have. The first real gaming system that ever entered the house was my Xbox. I got a GC for Christmas. I should also point out that I have Metroid Prime, but since I've only played to the middle of the first level I can't judge it yet (I'm too busy fishing in AC ;-]). I don't have a car so I spend a lot of time waiting for people to pick me up.
Any suggestions for me based off this?
EDIT:
I don't want to make my parents look like total morons. I guess I should tack on one other piece of information. Back when I was in kindergarten / first grade the NES had just come out. My mom had a friend who got one, and it literally took over the entire family. These people's entire world revolved around the video game system. If you walked into the room and coughed, and five minutes later they died they would scream at you for "making them lose their guy"... It was horrible. My parents kind of got a bad impression because of that. The idea behind giving me the original Game Boy was that they could easily take it away and hide it if things got out of hand.

My suggestion is:
for 3D realistic gaming use GC
for GBA game (which lot's of fun 2D RPG) use GBA
I haven't tried GBP.
I think GBP it's only make u'r GC become SNES console, but still have fun with it. Depends on u, but for me, it's kinda irritating .
BTW
Does the graphic improved or stretch when using GBP? (I've haven't tried)
Does the sound improved ?, because it's silly when u played goldensun with funny sound (when characters had dialog) and repetitive music on u'r TV with GC.

Which game is better Fire Emblem or Final Fantasy Tactics, please explain pros and cons for each game, thanks
~ Final Fantasy Tactics Advance ~
Pros:
~ Cool Isometric graphics.
~ Lots of non-linear missions.
~ Comfortably fast battling (just a quick note: this was my only gripe with Tactics Ogre, it was too slow)
~ Quite a few classes
Cons:
~ Story is trite and contrived.
~ Battles are extremely easy. Didn't die once.
~ Judge system is aggrivating, and totally gimmicky.
~ Many classes have re-hashed abilities. And most of the unique abilities are down-right useless.
This was probably my most disappointing game of the year. It felt incomplete. The story was bad, and the gameplay required little streategy. All in all it was a good game, but didn't stack up against its competition (or its predecessor).
~ Fire Emblem ~
Pros:
~ Great Story
~ Awesome classes.
~ Outstanding Battle Animations
~ Character support system that furthers character relationships. Really makes all the characters memorable. (Not to mention you get stat boosts when near supporting chars)
~ Battling is as fast or slow as you like.
~ Gameplay is challenging and requires much more fore-thought than FFTA
~ Character promotion is really satisfying (even though a character can only be promoted once)
Cons:
~ Map graphics are a bit flat.
~ Limited inventory space can be inconvenient (if you forget to make room before battles)
~ Weapons break. This isn't that bad but I was always hording the expensive weapons
(of course I finished the game with a mess of unspent money... Doh!)~ Difficult to level up healer classes.
I really love this game, the story is great, the character development is top-notch, and the battles are great fun. I plan on playing it again very soon. I'm also hoping that the older games make it to the US in some form, and I'm REALLY hoping we see a Fire Emblem on GC.

I've read a few reviews but they mostly seem to not compare the game to the original or compare it to other more popular Strategy RPGs (i.e. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance). I don't care if the game doesn't have a whole bunch of new features added to make it on par with modern day SRPGs, I just want to know if it retains the same spirit of the original Shining Force.

Fire Emblem: I'm still playing it. It never gets old. You actually grow attached to some characters, like Rebecca, for instance. Oh, and Oswin.
AW2: I'm still playing it. It never gets old. You have no attachment to the units. You send them forth to be destroyed, just to build another one next turn.
Mario & Luigi: I'm still playing it. It never gets old. I like Luigi best. Heh heh.
All three are top quality games. You can't go wrong. Save up 90 bucks and get them all the same day. Your nourished soul will kiss you.

Well, I went ahead and got the game anyway so I mind as well answer my own question here.
So far everything seems good to the original - music is a bit remixed but the game pretty much plays the same with enhancements being neutral or positive for the most part. I haven't figured out how to use the character cards yet but whatever their use is, it doesn't seem to affect the regular battle system.Post by: CHEN on August 29, 2004, 03:17:18 AM

oS, I came to realize that I completely skipped over Golden Sun and its sequel. Are these games (I'm especially wary of the first one as it's a first gen game) worth picking up today, or have better RPG's come out since? And if i skip straight into the second one, will I be at a disadvantage because of the transfer feature?I've already beat M&L:SS, Advance Wars (I skipped the second one), FFTA and Fire Emblem. I'm looking for more of a traditional RPG as opposed to a strategy game. Any suggestions?

Me? I'm boycotting The Lost Age because I feel that GS1 was a ripoff and I shouldn't encourage this behaviour in any way.

First off, I know the series is meant for younger players, but is it simple enough for the mind of an eight year old to grasp? Second, which would be the best to start off with--Gold, Silver, or Crystal? If I remember correctly, Crystal is a combination of Gold and Silver, but I'm not sure if it has a harsher learning curve.
Thanks for any and all help.

Actually I've never seen anyone playing Pokemon actually trying to do that. They're happy when their party is strong enough and leave it at that.
