Pokemon Emerald
Pokemon Emerald is pretty fun, but when you beat the game, there's not much more to do. It has some strategy involved, so that makes it kind of educational, but not really. I also never see a Game Boy Advance game break, so that makes it durable. So overall, it's a great game. The free tin is good, too.

for all you pokemon lovers out there this is the altemate thing for you.

Awesome!, even with the knowledge of Ruby and Sapphire!

Sincerely, Terrence mcgee

This game..is awesome! Much better than Ruby and Sapphire!
This game is much more funner and challenging. After you defeat the elite four, you can go to the Battle Frontier. The Battle Frontier is absolutley awesome! Over all, I will give this game a 9.3 outta 10! Thank you nintendo for making this game so much better! For those who don't have the game, you will love it! It's much more advanced than boring old Ruby or Sapphire. IT'S much more FUNNER! And it's only a measily little price of 35 bucks. That's a pretty good deal! So get the game today! It's AWESOME!!!!

Very Few Flaws
This game, overall, was very good. I believe that even those who have Ruby or Sapphire would like this game. One reason is the new Battle Frontier. this leaves you a major challenge once the core of the game has been completed. There are also many plot changes that make this game, overall, a good buy. ...

this thing is outdated, but it's still fun
the GBA SP was a success for nintendo (they rock!!!!) as GBA WAS getting pretty old. this IS A GREAT HANDHELD, but DS IS BETTER. this sysytem plays any GBA, GB, AND GBC games. it also has a light up screen which is great for playing late into the night. so for those of youwho still have a game boy or game boy color, you're missing out on all the fun! and the price is 80 bucks, so go out and buy one NOW!!!!!!!! WELL? WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!?!?!?!?!? GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO AAND BUY IT.... NO, I MEAN NOW!!!!!!!!!! NOW WHY ARE YOU STILL READIN THIS?!GO AND BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IIS YOUR FINAL WARNING! GO AND BUY IT NOW! .....3....2....1......0....UHOH, TIMES UP! YOU.....ARE.....DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!

Really Cool!
I love this version,Orange and Green. They have never done that in gaming. The graphics are alot better. The Cartidges are smaller(duh everyone knows that). But I perfer the DS. Finnaly, An actullal GameBoy with lightup screen. The controls are in the right place,fold up. It's just not as fun as other systems. It plays GBA,Game Boy Color and even Game Boy. I have a Red one of these. But the Green/Orange idea is one of the best ideas since the DS came out. It's 20.00$ cheaper so buy one now to enjoy the gameplay.

THIS ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a must-have. I got one in Easter (2003?).
HITS/MISSES
+ built-in light, with a button to control it.
+ rechargable
+ charge indicator[it disappears when it's charged]
- when using the GBA-GCN link cable, it covers the charger socket

Greatest Invention Ever! By Maggie
Ever since I played my friends Gameboy, I wanted one. I saved up money to buy it. Then for my birthday I unrapped a present and it was a Gameboy! I immideatly began playing it! It was soooo cool. The graphics are crystal clear. Perfesct size. Plus it's got really cool games you can buy. There are some games that you can't buy for Playststion, Xbox, or Gamecube. I love it. I definitly don't regret putting it on my birthday wish list!!!!!!

Excellent Game System For The Money.
I'm a 35 year old man and -- I admit it -- I bought this thing for myself.Once you've made the initial investment in the hardware, the games cartridges themselves are relatively inexpensive(...) making it a good system for the casual video-gamer (like me) or the serious hobbyist.

Game cartridges are also within the monetary grasp of many older children's allowances, so a GameBoy Advance could be used to teach children discipline with money.In other words, buy your kid(s) the hardware (and at least one game) to start with and then let them purchase other software when their funds permit.And, of course, game cartridges make inexpensive presents when birthdays or holidays come around.

As for me, game play is very enjoyableand I'm thoroughly impressed with the graphics considering the screen size and pixel depth available to the system. (Currently I'm playing my first two cartridges: Spider-Man 2 and Star Wars III: Revenge Of The Sith.)

Overall, for young or old, the GameBoy Advance is a great system (even surpassing its gimmicky touch-screen sibling, the Nintendo DS).The only thing an adult player has to consider is that the majority of games are marketed mostly to those in their early teens and younger.Other than that, its excellent.To top it all off, a GameBoy Advance can also play movies and TV shows with GameBoy Advance Video cartridges.

In short, if you're looking for an affordable expandable video game system, either for you or for your children, get this. ... Read more

Better than the first
Fire Emblem was one of the best games on the gba.Final Fantasy Tactics advance was another one.What this game does is take elements from both of them and combines them into one of the best handheld games ever.The first fire emblem was an extremely challenging game.This one is too, but now you can roam the map and join in skirmishis as in ffta.The character upgrade choices also make it superior to the first game.

Better Sequel to a Great Game
It is a time of peace, suddenly, your country of Renais is attacked by your ally, Grado.They are after the Sacred Stone, but why would they want the very thing that sealed the Demon King away centuries ago?

Welcome back to the realm of Fire Emblem.This installment had nothing to do with the other game (which is a little disappointing) but it still is as good as the first.So, what's new this time around, well first off, there's a difficulty selection available from the start (you had to unlock it in the first).There's beginner, which explains the game and has a tutorial, normal, for those of us who played through the first one and know much of the controls, and difficult, for those who want a challenge.

I got to say that I'm glad that they've added this feature so we don't have to listen to the idiotic tutorial (its good to look at it if your a beginner, but its still annoying).Anyway, the core of this game is essentially the same with some added features.

These added features include that of choosing what you want your character to turn into.For example, in the first game, thieves could only become an assassin.However, in this game you have a choice of an assassin, which is a killing machine (if you have the Killing Edge equipped), or become a Rougue, which is a thief who doesn't need lockpicks to open doors and chests.This adds a lot to the game too.

The other neat feature is the ability to walk on the world map and choose where you want to go.This system, I would compare it to that of FF Tactics Advance because you can run into monsters who are also new to the series.

There's also a Tower of Valni that is like an endurance round.You can leave whenever you want to, and its not required that you go there.

The storyline this time around is predictable but still can be classified as good.I mean I figured from the start what was going to happen, and most of your predictions will come true.

My favorite thing about this game are the main characters, Eirika and Ephraim.They are twins but seem to be complete opposites.Eirika is the peace loving princess who hates war, and Ephraim is the one who runs off trying to find pride in fighting.

So, should you pick up this game?Yes, if you liked the first one, but wanted more or if you haven't played the first.No, if you are tired of the gameplay from the first game because all you are going to get is the recycled form of the original.

PROS
- Good game with good stratergy ideas
- You have the choice to choose if you want the tutorial
- The added walk on the map feature is very useful
- The ability to choose what your unit will become

CONS
- The story is way too predictable
- A lot of this game is recycled from the old game (can be good or bad)

I haven't seen this yet
i haven't seen this game yet, but i'm sure that pigs are cool. you may find that this looks kqueer, but you know that it's true. just sayin hi to all those solar hills sons in this world

As a game, Sacred Stones is average. as a sequal, its a joke
Basically, what we have here is the same game.
Seriously. Intelli Sys recycled like 60% of the content from FE1(7 in jpn)? The only "new" things here are what you'd already expect in a sequel anyway: a new plot and new character designs.

Why would anyone pay full price to play exactly the same game all over again? It boggles the mind. On the pc we have what are called "expansion packs". This "sequel" does nothing new what the previous game hasn't already done. And the previous one, which I've reviewed, wasn't that impressive either.

In short, go ahead and buy this if you liked the first one and want more of the same. If the previous Fire Emblem didn't do much for you however, don't expect anything different.

Wow
This game had pretty big shoes to fill from the first fire emblem for gba but it certainly filled them. I really liked the choice for promoting units and the extra battles for level ups. ... Read more

Totally, completely, AWESOME!! :) :) :):):)
This game is great. The graphics are good, the variety of characters is astounding, the unlockable parts are cool. This game is awesome, action packed, funny, and cool all rolled in one. How do I know this? I've seen the trailer. I've seen many screen shots. And I've read other people's reviews. I have not even bought this game. I don't even have a penny saved up for it yet(I'm saving for something else). But, IF: you have the money; IF: You like games that has funny stuff; and IF: You just LOVE Star Wars, Legos, and Roleplaying games: THEN BUY THIS GAME! IT'S AWESOME!!!

Awesome
this game is awesome the only bad thing about this is that you can't block the bosses lightsaber like in episode3 for gba (count dooku)
You should buy this game it was very fun
lil kb

episods 1, 2 and 3
THIS game ROCKS!!!The boss battels are cool!Darth Mual is easy.

i.e.: droid, canon, droid camander, gunner droids, shild droid,

Super,(Grapler)droid camander, holding fasility, pits, forse filids, Super canon droids and Jango Fett.(that iv'e fased so far.thers more enimys.)

:)
so I felt pretty dumb buying this game.. looks like a little kids game.. sounds like a little kids game - but I love star wars! so I bought it and brought it to school - by the end of the week 5 out of 6 people I showed it to had bought it. the lego idea is really cool - I went and saw revenge of the sith and I kept thinking about how buildings would look as legos.. but anyways. I'm not even remotely good at video games - I don't think I've ever finished a game in my life.. though i have many. I haven't finished this one yet - but I have high hopes. This isn't hard to play - when you finish levels you can go back and play through them again and with different characters that youve unlocked - which is very amusing to a star wars fan.. :)

Too short and gets old FAST
I'll make this short, I BEAT THIS GAME THE SAME DAY I GOT IT. It barley covers episodes I, II and III, note how on the description it says that the game covers the most exciting and memorable scenes from all three movies? WELL THAT'S ALL THEY GIVE YOU! The day after i got it it was still kinda fun but then i played it a little more and it just got plain BORING.DON'T make the same mistake I did. I would rather save my money and buy actual legos or a different game. ... Read more

Revenge of the short games...
For all those who don't have a PS2 or XBOX we're stuck with this. It is a good game, but is way too short. Sure, you can play as Anakin and Obi-wan with all their seperate levels. Its still way too easy. The game basically goes like this. Fight weak enemies. Find boss. Parry his attacks. Slash. repeat.Insert occasional difference. Congrats, you've cleared the game. Despite all my griping, the game is still very fun. You get to upgrade your characters stats and choose what force moves they learn. When you fight, all the moves you can pull off (easily!) really make you feel like you're watching a movie. The really good thing about this game is the final level though. You fight on ground and then on a moving platform on top of lava, just like in the movie. And what parents will like most is the violence is kept to a minimum. Yes, you still fight, but their is no blood or corpses. The one violent part is when Obi-wan cuts off Anakin's legs. There is still no blood though. The ESRB has given the game a E 10+ rating, which means it is suitable for everyone 10 and over.

Ratings (out of ten)
Graphics: 6. Very cartoonish, and the backgrounds look nothing like the real setting in the movie.
Music: 6. Good, but gets repetitive, and doesn't fit the star wars theme.
Gameplay: 10. Really fun and addicting. The combat system is realistic and cool, not to mention fun.

All in all, Star wars for GBA is an okay game. You might buy it, becasue it can be fun to play beaten levels over again. If you rent it that's a good move too. Be warned though, it may get addicting.

A good fun
This is not comando republic or the revenge of the sith for playstation 2 and x-box, but if you are fan of the star wars movies you will find this game very good.

Its Fun, But....
This game is really fun for the first few time you play it.But then after those first few times you play, its nothing at all.All your doing is mindless killing of droids, and other StarWars creatures.There aren't any puzzles, or any thing that difficult, all it is is the killing of droids.The graphics are suprisingly VERY good for GBA standards.But if you really want a GREAT Starwars game, buy Republic Commando, or Revenge of the Sith for XBOX

It Was OK.........
The game is all based as sort of a walk through a hallway.You go down this tunnle battling enemies and when you get tho the end you battle a boss, and all you have to do is perry and he loses real easy
I liked it that you could custimize your caracter, but the mapping Just bade it a bad game!If you want a good RPG, get retuth of the king of metroid prime.

Good, but VERY short
The play control is great and the story line is pretty good, but it's just WAY too short!I remember the days of the Zelda for SNES where you played all the way through the game, 8 dungeons and the final battle, only to find out there are 8 more dungeons and an entirely new world to explore!Here we have 5 dungeons and an extremely small world to explore.Sure, there are a bunch of kinstones to swap, but that's only so entertaining.Overall, I liked the game, just wanted it to go on for another 5 dungeons!

Tons of Fun
I've been a nearly lifelong Zelda fan, so, although I don't buy a lot of GBA games, I bought this one the week it was released. I've played it through twice now, and enjoyed it both times. Here are a few points I consider while playing:
Point one: Graphics- While I didn't aprove of the switch to cell-shaded graphics (I find it irritatingly cartoony for a title which was previously somewhat more serious), it fit the tone and was well done.
Point two: storyline/ length- good, basic storyline- rescue the princess and save Hyrule- which fits well with the game's history. I would have liked a few more dungeons, but the sidequests somewhat made up for that.
Three: sidequests/ extras- Quite good, especially as they haven't been strong in the previous games. Kinstones and Figurines add more dimension to an otherwise (pleasantly) simple game.
Overall: Great game, can't wait for the next one.

Beautiful! Miyamoto brings back more fun!
Okay, hour 1 of minish cap: It's 6:00pm and I'm still stuck on this one puzzle, the size of a piece of dust and Ezlo isn't helping me... success! I found the Jar of Gusts! I suck the spiderwebs off (You're sick if you're thinking what I think you're thinking I'm thinking you're thinking.) with the jar and get out of the extra entrances, quite frankly I'm entertained.

Drowning in puddles... teardrops and getting jumped by pieces of pollen... what's not to want or need?! Mr. Miyamoto did not fail us, the gameplay engine was solid, the graphics, good for a GBA game, sound... wonderful! I swear, playing as a super-chibbi is fun, so if you want an affordable good game... don't buy this game... buy it if you want an awesome affordable game! Go Zelda!!!

Cool Game
This is fun, even when you play it again. There is a HUGE amount of kinstone fusions to do, it will take a lot of time to come up with everything. I had to make a separate game where I don't finish the four sword, since i miss a lot of fusions from the town. Also, try making your name dude or cheesy. People start saying really weird stuff.

So Much Fun

Wind Me Up and Turn Me Loose
Are you thinking about trying the waters as a first time gamer?, Are you a hardcore gamer that is looking for something different?Or are you somewhere in between wanting something to consume your mind?!?Well......Nintendo has a game for you!!!WarioWare Twisted is an absolute when it comes to fun and different.The game has a gyro-sensor and so you use no other controls except for the occasional but for an action.You twist and turn your GBA/SP/DS to get it to do what you need, which is a multitude of mini games lasting no more than a few seconds long in length.

WarioWare MegaGames set the industry on its ear when it came out several years ago.By the way, when you finish Twisted, the original can still be found and is HIGHLY recommended.The goal is to complete several "mini" games, from twisting your airplane to fly out between hanger doors.To twisting so your legs match the syncro swimmers next to you.But as you go the faster and faster you have to complete your mini game.

I originally purchased the first WarioWare for my wife, we were looking at a long trip and she usually likes to take her GBA along to make the hours go buy.This one is no different, except for she makes me take corners wide as not to affect the gyro sensor and throw her game off.We almost need two of this game, we are always trying to play it when the other has it.The WarioWare series of games always get high reviews, the first one is deemed a classic and I am sure this one will be one too given enough time.

Wow!My head is spinning
I loved the microgames in previous Wario titles, but these are a whole lot of fun mainly due to the gyroscope (a sensor that knows when you are turning the GBA).I think this one beats the DS version TOUCHED simply beause it is easier to grasp and use without the stylus.Playing this one in public will get you some odd looks too.Lots of secrets to unlock.Definitely replay all the levels several times - there's a lot to unlock in here.This is a great game for all ages and all skill levels.That's the real draw.The whole family can fight over who's turn it is.

Twisted sick
This game is addictive! FUNFUNFUN.I'm here to tell some wacked things about this game. First if you play Jimmy DR. CrygorOrbolon and Warioman Long enough you will get Fronk GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! These are hyper fast games by fronk. You can tell you get these when the music turns wierd. Play designers over to get new games and soveniers. Play Nine and eighteen volt to get the hilarious MONA PIZZA RECORD.If you beat wario man pay attention to his hysterical cut scene. I'm firing everyone. all in all this is a completley strange and pointless micro game bash. (What fun!)

Fun game
This game is alot of fun and is hard to put down. I am a 51 old woman that loves to play gameboy games and I have all the Wario games. Took a little getting use to having to move the gameboy back and forth or in circles but it is a lot of fun.

Twisted is incredibly addictive!
Okay, so I kinda bought this on impulse, without reading any reviews first. I mean, I had seen the DS version "touched" and loved it, but don't have a DS! "Twisted" has the exact same appeal as "Touched", and is just as fun, if not more! No stylus, just turn your gameboy! The gyro sensor is really sensitive, and you hardly push any buttons on this game. It's a perfect game to killl 5-10 minutes...but also pretty hard to put down if you have a lot of time to kill! The challenge doesn't seem to end, because you keep trying to want to beat your own scores, earn more souveneirs, and turn, turn turn! It's the best gameboy game I've come across in a long while. Totally original. I'm addicted. I love the mini-mini-game format. Buy it. You won't be disappointed! =) ... Read more

Eh
Alright, I had my sare of addiction towards this game and it was actually awhile ago, but I'll try to explain what I liked about this game.

From the start of this game, you'll most likely notice the very bad graphics that are displayed... or maybe the bad sound.. or maybe the decent number of people online at one time

Well, i think this game was the best game in the world to me at one time, I had a level 27 Warrior Halfling ( Hobbit ). But simply, I stopped playing ebcause I stopped paying the 10$ a month. And after that, a few months leter i went to the computer version, Everquest II. ( see my review for that. )

There are some good things about this game. It is online so you can play with other players, it's overall a fantastically made RPG, ( in my opinion better than FinalFantasy by a long-shot. ) And improvements over the first one for the PS2, there is a new Race. ( The Ogre. ) and new class. ( Alchemist. ) There are also some new areas to explore, with new creatures. The team also updated you're leveling, so instead of the highest level being 50, it is now 60. The final thing that was updated, was a very very slight update in graphics. They are hard to see, but they are there. Anyways, if you do play this game and begin to like it, trust me; your hours will be FLYING by. My summer in 2003 and part of 2004 was gone before i knew it. ( I played the first one too. )

Anyways enjoy yourself with it. This game can be enjoyable to you, or a piece of junk.

Good game but.......
It would seem SOE has turned their back on this game.It is a good game,It needs a lot of updates,and definitely a NEW expansion!!Overall this game rocks,but customer service is horrible!Talk to anybody who plays this game,they love it,except for the way SOE treats us as customers.Be prepared for lots of xp grinding,which can get tedious after a while.But xp grinding is not unique to just this game.There is plenty to do on frontiers for a newbie...but beyond that it's past time for a new expansion.I think SOE needs to remember they do have other games and customers other than those on EQ2.I also play regular EQ,so i am a fan of the series,SO....I think the future of eq frontiers is uncertain,have you seen it on the shelves anywhere?That in itself speaks volumes.So let the buyer beware!GOOD game,bad support,uncertain future.

Need no life to play
Everquest is a valiant attempt at an online rpg hypbrid but is far too encompassing for its own good.One must have no life and play constantly to really get the most out of the game and advance.I like the characters and idea but i just cannot get into it, i am looking forward to similar games with what i feel will be better online capabilities and better enjoyment and value. I would recommend Capcom's Monster Hunter or even the obligatory FF but that one has monthly fees whereas Monster Hunter is free.

Just Read
(...) i am 16 and i dont want to go though that stupid sign up thing. Anyway..... This is a great game but it comes at a price u do have to pay (...) but its well worth it. Be careful of everquest because it is very addictive some ppl play it for days straight. In fact a lot of ppl call it Ever Crack. Its such a fun game dont wry but be contious of what time it is because hours go by like minutes.

Can you improve on perfection?
Surprisingly, the answer is, 'Yes.Yes you can.'

The original EQOA is the best of the overcrowded MMORPG herd.It's simple and fast paced, inexpensive and addictive.From a technology perspective it does amazing things on a PS2 without a harddrive.When I first played it, I couldn't imagine making a better RPG without waiting for the next generation of consoles to come out.

But SOE did it.EQOA: Frontiers is that better RPG!It's the same shared world as the original- both sets of players can fight side-by-side.Most of what SOE improved on are the little things, things that you'd never even notice until you played both.The imagery and music is better.There are ambient effects like fog and raining brimstone in the right places.The skies and the weather are just a little bit more present and real.

Best of all, though, your character is more customizable with better textures and an absolutely fantastic 'Class Mastery' system that lets you choose what path you want to take to power.Even within the same class and race, two characters can end up with very different strengths and weaknesses.

Add all that to making what is already a huge online landscape even larger, and you have more than a great game.It's an achievement.

And so I'd have to say that EQOA: Frontiers is my new pick for the finest of the MMORPG genre.Start with the original if you're skeptical- it only costs as much as a month's subscription.But mark my words, you'll end up buying the upgrade to fuel your addiction.

And when you do, you'll be impressed.Very impressed. ... Read more

*Boring*
I played this game before, and do not buy it, it's just plain BORING. All it is? Fighting.That's ALL!!!! Believe me, this is not the best game you'll ever see.

Not a good choice for younger kids
My 4 yr old is crazy about The Incredibles and counted the days until his Incredibles game arrived in the mail. It was very disappointing. It is a lot of punching and being shot at and that's about it. Since The Incredibles appeal to a very large and young audience (and I know older folks too). I really thought the game would be more appropriate for younger children. It's not. My son loves Zelda, Urbz, and Mario Kart but unfortunatelythis was a waste of money and a big disappointment for a great little guy.

Awsome!!!!
I saw the movie and it was Awsome and I know 99.9% or movie games are good!

This game SUCKS!
DON'T BUY IT! Movie was awesome, game is glitchy, and just plain not fun. SUCKS!

Luv it,Luv it,Luv it!!!!!!!!
I am a big fan of the movie and for me this game was great.I loved the whole thing.I wish there was another incredibles video game.Even though it was challenging in some parts once you get the hang of it it's great.Level 8 is especially hard because you get killed very easily.Even though you have to keep a list of passwords I loved the game and it was based a lot on the movie.For someone who loves the movie this is a great game!! ...

Best GBA RPG Ever!
For those of you who were disappointed over Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls, this game will let you have peace in your heart.Although it is not made by SquareEnix, it still shares some of the elements of FF:Tactics Advance.While the story is as far out as the FF series, it still retains a lot of the plot twists and suspense that the other games have.

For of you who haven't had the chance to play any of these games allow me to introduce it to you.Intelligent Systems, the people behind Advanced Wars and Paper Mario, have released an RPG based off the Japanese series Fire Emblem after Super Smash Bros. Melee introduced Marth & Roy and the people begged for it to be released (including me).This game is not like SSBM in any regards, its totally different.You play on a grid where you move your units around and attack your opponents.

I am a big fan of grid based combat, so I went and bought this game as soon as I could.It has so many great elements to make a game good.The thing that might shock other people, as it did me, as that as soon as one of the characters dies, they're gone for good, unless of course you want to restart the level.This adds a huge amount of stratergy to the game.Some of the characters that are weak would normally make me care less if they died, but in this game, they give you their background, and each has their own dying phrase.The other thing is, your ending will be changed a little if any character dies.

The sound is spectacular, some of the best orchastrated music I've heard on a handheld.Conversations can drag on a little sometimes, but that can be ignored by the music and the excellent storyline.

It starts out as your basic fairy tale about a girl finding out she's a princess and so on.But then later the game takes on a much darker tone, which I don't want to spoil for those who haven't played the game.Oh, and the other nice feature is the ability for your weapons to have 'health.'Its similar to that of Dark Cloud's system, but different.If you use a weapon too much, it'll break.THe other neat feature is the extra chapters that can be obtained in various ways.

So overall, the game is pretty awesome.I suggest that to everyone who has a gba, to pick this one up even if they hate these games.

PROS
- Excellent Storyline
- Great stratergy elements
- The Battle System works extremely well
- The music is some of the best on a handheld

CONS
- Dialogue can drag on sometimes, but it isn't too bad.
- The Tutorial is extremely annoying, but if you skip it, you miss part of the storyline.
- Losing a character and starting the level all over can be quite annoying when you get to longer levels.

Yawn. Been done and done heaps better.
Remember Shining Force I and II? Remember? Those turn based top-down view rpgs on the Sega Mega Drive with cool characters, heaps of cool magic and detailed combat animations?

Well those were classic sega games that came out a full DECADE ago. Compared to those strategy rpgs of yore, Fire Emblem (this the 7th in the series) makes NO PROGRESS WHATSOEVER.

It has lacklustre character designs, an overly wordy plot, a simplistic and boring combat system, a lack of difficulty and an annoying "support" feature which is somehow the developers attempt at adding replay value to this game.

Overall, to the utter newbie whose only prior experience with these kind of games was with Advance Wars(which is arguably a better game than this one), Fire Emblem might seem like a solid choice. I agree, it IS a solid choice. It is also, however, a throwback of a game. A disappointing retread of gameplay that has been done bigger and better(on lower end systems I might add).

How to begin? I will make a short comparison between this game and Shining Force II, which many of you have already played. Let me remind you that:

*SFII had more exciting animations. In Fire Emblem, most of the art went to the character portraits. When it comes to the top-down graphics in battle, as well as the battle animations themselves, this game looks extremely poor for a GBA game.

*SFII had more varied character designs.FE's characters might look "pretty", but are pretty much all same-ish anime fare, color-coded hair and all.

*SFII had HEAPS more: weapons, armours, spells, items. It was much more varied. Compared to this, all FE has going for it is a nice little "weapon triangle" system and your token herbs and potions. Not very exciting. In SFII you could cast spells like gigantic lightning storms which affect entire areas. In FE the magic works just like a weapon. You attack one square at a time. BO-Ring.

*SFII had BETWEEN-COMBAT exploration. In FE, it's pretty much battle after battle. Consequently the plot is FORCED to be told in huge CHUNKS pre and post-battle. Not very immersive.

*SFII was fun and worth replaying. Just go try it. In FE however, any semblance of replayability is in the form of placing different units next to each other and wait turn after turn in hope of getting new support combos. Wheee.

It seems abit ridiculous for me to compare this hand-held game with a console game, but bear in mind that the console game in question came out more than 10 years before this. The game boy advance is both graphically and performance wise better than the Mega Drive in every respect. Why can't Intelligent Sys. make a game that fully utilises its potential?

An Intelligent Nod
I have yet to play Advance Wars 1 or 2, Intelligent Systems' modern war/strategy series for the GBA, but I can venture an educated guess that Fire Emblem shares a lot in common with it.Fire Emblem is a strategy RPG reminiscent of the Shining Force series for the Genesis, but it's been forever for me to make detailed comparisons of the two. Fans of Shining Force, Ogre Battle, and/or Advance Wars will probably find a lot to like.

Fire Emblem will be fairly easy for those experienced in these kinds of games.Most of the challenge presents itself in keeping your combatants alive, because if they are killed during battle, you won't be getting a chance to get them back.Not even a chance to revive them from defeat (unlike, for example, the popular Final Fantasy Tactics, where you had up to three turns to revive a fallen comrade).This can present a problem if you don't use tight and well-thought out tactics, because the enemy will always jump at the opportunity to kill the weakest party members within range.Fortunately, there's an ability to "rescue" other members, and even pass them off to others in your group.Anyway, I think it's pretty neat that you can't get them back.It adds an urgent dynamic to the game and forces you to really think your moves through.After the first part of the game, it even tells what the characters who didn't make it to the end went on to do with their lives.Some followed the party (although injured and unable to fight), while others went their separate ways.

In battle, it is prudent that you search out the most advantageous terrain (forests, forts) and engage from there.Also, weapon selection is an important factor, as certain weapons are good against some, bad against others.Rounding out the standard and borrowed strategy-RPG elements is the class system, albeit a limited one (nothing on the scale of an FFT or Tactics Ogre; more like Shining Force).Your units can advance in class with a specific item after reaching level 10.

One thing worth mentioning in Fire Emblem is that enemy forces, on some battlefields, are concealed within fog or darkness.The limited visibility adds another layer of danger to the combat, which can be partially alleviated with some items.However, this element only somewhat succeeds.I wonder if the developers could have made it where the limited visibility worked both ways, where the enemy had no way of knowing where you are, and would occasionally stumble into a big pack of your units (I wonder, but I think I know the answer to that one).More importantly, a stealth element is missing in the game, perhaps the ability to sneak up on an enemy without them knowing about your approach.

So, what drives all this fighting in Fire Emblem?The first part of the game has you controlling Lyn, a young woman from the Plains of Sacae, whose family was murdered by bandits, and who is of royal lineage in a far off Kingdom.Her journey takes her to the castle in search of her ailing Grandfather, in order to stop his vengeful brother from usurping the throne.But we find out that this is just a small part of a bigger scheme.Big surprise, huh?The story is ok, and the characters are ok, and the dialogue and writing might be the strongest aspect.However, there's nothing remotely profound or emotional in the melodramatic delivery of the game's story, but that's the norm for video games. Oh well.Instead, you end up developing an attachment to the characters for how well they fight in battle, cheering them on during encounters and hoping they don't get killed. The game succeeds in this.

A Final Fantasy Tactics this is not.It's not dynamic or deep enough in both its gameplay and story and sentiment.However, I'd argue that it's slightly better than Final Fantasy Tactics Advance for the GBA.Both games are derivative of what has come, but Fire Emblem's not stepping backwards--only nodding to the past.

Very good strategy/rpg title for the GBA/DS
This game is an excellent strategy title for your Gameboy and will give you dozens of hours of gameply. (My first go through the game was over 24 hours total)

The characters are all pretty much interesting in this game and there are tons of them to pick and choose on missions. The variety of the units and their personalities are what make this game so enjoyable.

And if a unit dies then its dead. No 1-ups or resurrection in this game. If your character dies then be prepared to never see them again.
This really keeps you on your toes as wounded units need rescuers and backup.
However, this can be a pain to play a mission for over an hour then have the boss kill them in one hit, thus causing you to start the level over again...

All in all this is simple to learn, yet highly entertaining game. Pick it up if youre missing some a challenging and engrossing strategy game.

Saved games reset - *sigh*
A fun strategy game overall, but has a major flaw - I can't stand any game that does not let you save anytime you want.I know this game allows you to save at anytime, but the game auto saves for you at the last turn, so that when you die you cannot revert to where you originally saved.I know the designers of Fire Emblem did this so to make the game more challenging or "realistic", so that players can't "cheat" by playing from that save point over and over again, but it actually makes the game more annoying and frustrating.If you character dies, by lets say a way to powerful and out of balanced mini boss attacking you and killing you with one shot, you have to start the whole stupid level over again.

Otherwise, this game would have received 5 stars - trust me, you'll get frustrated and annoyed the 100th time you main character dies, and you are forced to play the level over again. ... Read more

Product Description

Wario's latest batch of microgames are more insane than ever thanks to the new touch screen interface. In one game, you have to use the stylus to guide a twisted piece of tissue into an unsuspecting nostril. If the nose sneezes, you win. In another, you use the stylus to carve a statue by chipping away at a large stone block. The games are faster and goofier than ever, which will make this title a sure-fire hit for any WarioWare fan. ... Read more

Short but Fun
I have only played this Warioware game and the Warioware: Twisted! game, so I will not be rating this game in comparison to the first Warioware game.

In this game, you play through a series of quick, 5 second microgames in quick succession.Although some games are hard to complete, the real challenge is in the speed.There are over 180 microgames, so with each microgame you have to instantly figure out what you need to do, or lose and proceed on at the breakneck pace.

This gameplay is incredibly fun, and really makes for one of the best gaming experiences ever.The actions are a bit repetitive, however.Take the microphone themed games.About 90% of these games could be done simply by blowing in the microphone again and again.Luckily, the little differences in each game keep you interested, and your eyes on the screen.

By far the biggest problem with this game is its length.I beat it in about three hours.(Beat meaning I got the reccomended scores for every character in the game)I spent a further three hours or so, and I am now experienced with every microgame in Touched! and I am close to having beaten the Albums for them.I have every souvenier but three.And worst of all, once you have memorized every microgame, the entire thrill of the game, not knowing what to do, is gone.

If you are looking a tougher, larger game experience, buy Warioware: Twisted! for the GBA instead.It is a bit better than Touched!, but they're both great games really.If you have a DS, my reccomendation is to buy them both, put them in at the same time, and have a great time!Plus, you unlock a special video of Mona in Touched! if you put them both in at the same time.

Overall, Touched! is either a hit or miss game.Try it before you buy it, but I think you'll like it.

FINAL RATING:4.5 out of 5


P.S. Please forgive the spelling mistakes, I am writing this quickly.

I Love Wario!!!
This game is so much fun. Although sometimes the directions are unclear, the items on the screen usually tell you what to do.It is a game I could play forever and it never gets old. You never know what mini game will pop up next. It is very fun and NOT a waste of your money.

Absolute madness yet SO fun!!!!!
Having played, replayed, and loved the GBA WarioWare: Mega Microgames, it was only natural that I should buy the DS version. WarioWare Touched is perhaps the craziest DS game ever created, a barrage of 5-second microgames one after another. There are 180 of them, all with strange goals like running a mechanical pencil out of lead or popping balloons. Some other reviewers have complained that this game is too easy, but I disagree. Sure, I was able to beat all the sets of microgames once in the first day I had it, but that's only scratching the surface. After you beat a Boss level or complete a set number of games, you recieve a weird souvenir, which could be anything from a party blowout to a parrot that repeats whatever you say into the DS's microphone. This keeps you playing even after your first run through the game, trying to beat challenges and unlock more extras. I still don't have them all. I still haven't even played all the microgames.

Another cool feature of this game is the fact that only the touch screen and the mic have any importance in the game controls; everything else just pauses the game. While this makes for a fun, different way to play, you should be careful not to get too carried away in trying to beat the clock, or else it's easy to scratch your screen. I know. I've been very, very careful {or have tried to be, anyway}, but my screen still got some scratches. Oh well. This game is worth it. This isn't a story-oriented game like Super Mario 64 DS {which, by the way, is an awesome game}, but it'll keep you playing for quite some time. Oh yes, it's got some pretty cool music too, 2 songs having lyrics. I really enjoy this game, and I recommend it to anyone who has a DS.

BEST DS GAME EVER!!!
Do not, I repeat DO NOT pass on this game.In Wario's debut with the DS game system I couldn't wish for anything more from a game ever! This game is extremely fun because of the single fact that you get to play 180 new microgames with the touch screen.Yup, you heard me folks, you don't use those pesky buttons the entire game.This style of gameplay makes Warioware: Touched the best game ever.This game has many micro games, over a 180.If you are wondering:What is a microgame? Don't worry, I'll explain. A microgame is a fun game, that takes about 5 seconds to complete.Now you must be thinking: That is so easy then! Nope, your child won't get bored of them, because they become very hard to complete in the later levels. The game is set up in a very interesting way.Each charcter has there own specifictype of games. For example, with the character Jimmy T., you have to rub to complete the games.Each character throws exciting new games your way. In one of the characters, you evn use the microphone! To unlock more charcters you have to beat a chracter yuo have.But the fun doesn't stop there either. After beating the game you can try and beat your highscore's for each character.This part is challenging, and I promise it will keep your child interested.Another cool thing about this game is the toys.Whenever you beat a character, you get a "toy". What is a toy, you might ask. A toy is a cool little thing that is fun to play with. For example one of the toys is a "harmonica." Where you blow into themicrophone and then press button, and then your DS is a harmonica. Some of the toys are minigames. A minigame is different from a microgame. A minigame doesn't last 5- 10 seconds, but last as long as you keep winning. Another cool part of the game is the album.Here you can play microgames you've played while using the charcters. It is a cool feature, and it really adds to the replay value of the game. I also enjoy the sountrack to this game.It has many catchy tunes, that are sure to be stuck in your head.Each character, along with having there specific type of microgames, has their one soundtrack. There are also many classics. such as the Nintendo Theme Song. Overall, you MUST BUY THIS GAME. If you have learned anything from this review, I hope you learned, what an awsome game this is. I would recomend it over any DS game you can name.It's got fun, hardness, and replay value. If you want your child to have the best DS game, buy this one.

A must-have for DS owners
This is the first must-have game for Nintendo's new handheld. With great implementation of the DS' unique features, fun-for-anyone gameplay, and quirky tone, this will please both the masses and the diehards.

The hook here, obviously, is the touch screen. Let me tell you, using a stylus is just as intuitive as using a button interface. Everything is incredibly responsive; I can't think of a single time when I had to tap or rub repeatedly to get the game to react.

There are a respectable number of characters in the game, each with his or her own control mechanic. To complete the game, you must finish a set of each character's "microgames" (think minigames, only they last around 5 seconds each). For example, there's a character for "slicing", one for "scribbling", and another for "dragging", among others. This variety keeps the game fresh, and always makes you excited to play as a new person.

The microgames themselves are extremely well-designed. Although you are thrown straight into them, with no explanation or instructions, it's a cinch to figure out your objective and complete it within the time limit. You'll find yourself doing things as diverse as scribbling ketchup onto hot dogs, chopping carrots, or scratching backs. Lots of the games are funny, too. I should also mention that each game has three levels of difficulty, which adds more variety.

Maybe what I like best about this game, beyond the great gameplay, is the extraordinary amount of content. Sure, the "main" game can be finished quickly, but there's a boatload of things to do after viewing the credits. By earning high scores, you can earn tons of extra prizes. These prizes are really great and unique; you can unlock everything from a playable piano to a two-player ping-pong game.

This game has convinced me that the DS has real potential. It's a joy to play, it'll keep you entertained for hours, and it's full of little surprises that'll make you smile. If you have a DS, run out and play this now--I can guarantee that it'll make you leap up and exclaim, "Touching IS good!!" ... Read more

Kirby and the Amazing Mirror: The Best Kirby Game Out There!
Kirby has been my favorite video game character for quite some time.I love the cute and colorful scenery and enemies in Kirby games, and I like how they are fun, but have minimal violence.Kirby and the Amazing Mirror, although sharing the colorful graphics and lack of violence of the other Kirby games, is actually quite different.In Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland, you just cruised your way through levels randomly sucking up enemies.The levels were one-way, and you could finish a world in less than an hour.
Kirby and the Amazing Mirror, however, requires good thinking skills and an eye for detail.Different doors take you to different places, and you often switch from world to world without even noticing.To find your way around, you can use maps, but first you must discover where they are locatedAfter defeating all of the bosses, including the final one, your game is usually still not 100% finished.You have to explore every world and make sure to discover every room and open every treasure chest.
Inside the treasure chests could be spray paint bottles, sound effects from the game, world maps, or even a heart to increase Kirby's vitality by one.These objects go into the Collection Room.Spray paint bottles can be used to change Kirby's color at the start of a game, sound effects can only be listened to once you discovered the Sound Player, and World Maps and Vitality Hearts effect your game automatically.
The graphics and sounds in this game are great, and not annoying in the least.This Kirby game is as cute as always, but it has a slight twist on the Kirby style.Also, you can call the other Kirbys for help when you need it, but you can only call so many times before you need to collect batteries.I reccomend this game to anyone who like cute games or non-violent games.

A full Multi-Category review (and MAVAV parody bonus!)
This time around, gamers are in for a special treat from me. Not only am I giving my Multi-Category review to Kirby and the Amazing Mirror, but I just found a spoof website the other day made by the MAVAV (Mothers Against Video game Addiction and Violence), and found the site hilarious, absurd, and infuriating. As a result, I'm proud to include as a bonus in this review a parody mixed in saying what MAVAV would probably say about this game.

Enjoy!

GRAPHICS: (Me): This Kirby game shows that Nintendo knows how to bring out the best in its systems. The graphics may be decried by some as kiddie, but you should never judge a book by its cover. RATING: 9
(MAVAV): Kirby is yet another cute little character made to take advantage of the same strategy the tobacco industry used: lure kids in and addict them!

SOUND: (Me): Good, it fits in well with the Kirby universe. RATING: 9
(MAVAV): Turn off the volume! That music contains subliminal messages that will tell your childrens' subconcious to play more!

PLOTLINE: (Me): Kirby is chopped into four separate Kirbys of different colors and must swallow enemies and use their powers to save Mirror World. Goo, but it can be a little basic. RATING: 7
(MAVAV): This game has extreme violence and trains kids to kill people! If your children see Sword Kirby give Mr. Flosty a whack, they will be guaranteed to grow up as hardened, murderous criminals!!!

CONTROLS: (Me): Excellent. All difficulty comes from the skill needed to succeed. RATING: 8.5
(MAVAV): Once your kids touch the GBA, they will not be able to let go of it. They will immediately become obese social outcasts and suffer from extreme mental problems!

GLITCHES: (Me): None, as far as I know. RATING: 9.5
(MAVAV): This game has loads of glitches! And according to our non-existent, made-up sources, that's a FACT!!!

ENTERTAINMENT: (Me:) Excellent. I enjoyed it. RATING: 8
(MAVAV): Video game addiction is more dangerous than drugs and gangs! Don't let your kid touch this!

REPLAY VALUE: (Me): Plenty enough for a few times through. RATING: 8.5
(MAVAV): Oh, there's plenty, all right... when your kids are on a 72-hour non-stop gaming binge!

OVERALL RATING: 8.5

A FINAL WORD: (Me): Good game.
(MAVAV): Nintendo will steal your child's future. If they play this, THEY'LL BE SORRY!!!

Great kirby game!!!
This game is a very fun and challenging game.It is kind of that game that you might play all day and everyday.And your friends can help you beat the game.So you can split up and conquer the areas.Call your friends to the area you are having trouble with,and if you need to heal,call him/her to your area and eat the food they broght.This game is a must since you have to complete the game 100% and it is not going to be easy!
