Oops forgot the 2 Advance Wars games.

Posted

Shantae (GBC)

Puyo Pop or Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo (GBA)

Iridion II if you like shooters (NOT Iridion 3D), (GBA)

Any Wario Land title is a good pickup.

Either Fire Pro Wrestling title (GBA).

Pretty much any Kirby platformer

Pinball of the Dead (GBA).

 

AVOID:

DBZ: Legacy of Goku (GBA)

Iridion 3D (GBA)

Sega Smash Pack (it's not worth it since you can find all the titles on Genesis for less, Spinball isn't very good) (GBA).

Posted (edited)

Oh yeah. If you like annoying, whiny main characters, mind-numbingly boring "stragety" gameplay, and shitty stories, definitely go for FF Tactics Advance. You'll love it!

 

And, in November.. River City Ransom and Double Dragon! OH YEAH!

 

Those too, so avoid Final Fight One.

 

Metriod Fusion (That woefully, woefully owned Prime)

 

Er, no. Fusion is, to me, the second worst Metroid game ever (II beats it out). Of course, it's still a good game.

Ah hell, screw being picky:

 

- Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, 3, or 4

- each Castlevania

- Super Mario Bros. 3 port(marks out for SMB3 :headbang:)

- Both Firepro games

- Wario Land 4

- Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance

- Advance Wars(either)

 

I can't believe that nobody has suggested WARIO WARE MEGA MICROGAME$~! Did anyone besides me get that game? It was fucking awesome!

Lets see here:

 

F-Zero MV

 

ANY or ALL of the 3 'Vaina games

 

PLEASE GET Advance Wars and Advance Wars 2 and Golden Sun and Golden Sun 2...

 

ehh of course there is Final Fantitcy (sp) Adventure BUT Tactics Ogre OWNS!!!!

 

Mega Man Zero 1 and 2 (Zero 2 Coming the Same day X7 is out for PS2)

 

Metriod Fusion (That woefully, woefully owned Prime)

 

Make Sure YOU GET Boktai! (Its from Kojima and it owns well)

 

Um...there is the Medbots Game, the UM game- oh there is some Contra Goodness too - Ninja - 5 Oh is a good game as well...

 

There is not going to be that good RPG's coming out until March--- I stick with these...

Do NOT buy each castlevania! Buy Harmony of Dissonance and the very very awesome Aria of sorrow but do not buy circle of the moon. It's quite possibly the worst Castlevania game released.

 

Some other games to get (GBA):

 

-Megaman zero

-Megaman Battlenet 3

-At least one pokemon

-Sonic advance 2

-Final fight one

-Street fighter alpha 3

-Mario Kart

 

Some games NOT to buy:

 

Golden sun

Golden sun 2

Earthworm jim 1 and 2

Mario, Zelda, Sonic, Metroid are all good.

 

Puzzle Games

Columns Crown

Puyo Puyo Pop

Super Puzzle Fighter II

Puzzle Bobble/Bust a Move

Tetris Worlds sux

 

Kirby Dream Fantasy Fountain

Ninja Cop Five-O - its the best ninja game out, even better than the lame Shinobi game on GBA.

Final Fight One

Splinter Cell

Turok 3 Shadow of Oblvion GBC

Phantasy Star Collection - its the classic Sega RPG games.

Bomberman Max

Boxing Fever - is Punch Out on GBA!

Crash Bandicoot - is a fun platform game

Gradius Generation Advance - Konami shooter

Konami Classics - Frogger, Rush N Attack, Yie Ar Kung Fu, Gyruss, Scramble, Time Pilot all in one!

Isn't that damning with faint praise?

 

Boxing Fever - is Punch Out on GBA!

 

Not like that awful Punch King I hope.

 

I can't believe that nobody has suggested WARIO WARE MEGA MICROGAME$~! Did anyone besides me get that game? It was fucking awesome!

 

It's an odd game that may not appeal to everyone. Still, Dr. Wario is a great game by itself.

Yes, Andrew, we already know that you're not into the game. Different strokes, different folks. FFTA is a perfectly acceptable RPG for the GBA, IMO <--- Notice the IMO...

Okay, that's better.

 

It's the thought that counts, and I happen to sincerely think FFTA sucks, and is an insulting piece of tripe with a battle system that is woefully in need of updating and smoothing out. Although if you judge it by just the battle system and not the story, it's not so bad.

 

I second Circle of the Moon being somewhat blah. It's the only Castlevania game I'd sold after I purchased it. Oh, and Yuna, the other GBA CVs star bishonen! You love those!

Yeah I know, a Belmont bishomen? Whats up with that?

Ok so I got some of my games confused with others, I meant Boxing King and Turok Evolution.

Never heard of Boxing King. Punch King, yeah.

I think you were right the first time, though.

Well, the current Castlevania artist, Ayami Kojima, draws her dudes that way. It isn't really an issue during gameplay or anything, so I don't care.

Meatwad has the most correct answer - YOU WANT ADVANCE WARS. You want not only Advance Wars, but ADVANCE WARS 2. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.

 

There's been a lot of other good games recommended here, go by them.

 

If you're into fighting games, check out Street Fighter 3 and King of Fighters ("Howling Wind" I think - not the "Neo Blood" version. Blood is decent, but Howling allows you to play as Iori Yagami!).

Agrees with Mad Dog ^^

 

It all depends on what you like. What are your favorite genres?

Hmm... RPGs, strategy games, stuff like that.

 

Oh, and Yuna, the other GBA CVs star bishonen! You love those!

Yeah, I know, I've seen some of the artwork in a few gaming mags. It's like...whoah. Hotness! But, um, yeah, that's just me...

 

Thanks for all the suggestions ^.^

The first FFT game's story sucked....I was completely confused as to what was going on. But the job system and levelling up and stuff was cool. So, if FFTA's story sucks as bad as you say it does, then I'll simply ignore it.

I'd also recommend

 

Phantasy Star Collection

Lunar - if you don't own the PSX version

Posted

I love the first FFT. It is kind of like Once Upon a Time in Mexico with people turning face/heel so often that you can't remember which side everybody is on before they get killed. It also has by far the highest bodycount I've ever seen in an RPG. Awesome stuff.

Silver Star Story.

 

Although it's not exactly like the PSX version. Can't move around in battle and stuff.

 

Good luck finding it too.

I should use the edit button more often, here is some more games I like:

 

Pinball of the Dead

Super Monkey Ball Jr.

Robotech the Macross Saga

Pacman Collection

Mr Driller

Contra Advance (Contra: Alien Wars)

Super Dodge Ball

Super Ghouls N Ghost

Bobble Bubble Old&New

Rainbow Islands GBC

Dragon Warrior 1&2

Dragon Warrior 3

Elevator Action Old&New

Ever see the commercials? Yes, THOSE are your heroes. Uber-geeky little pathetic teens, who I suppose Squeenix hoped the players would identify with. If I didn't hate Square already I'd be insulted. The whole war theme is ditched for some kids' pathetic romp in a fantasy world.

 

The battle system is kinda hurt by the Judge Point system. Randomly you'll be told you CAN'T use a certain thing at the start of each battle, and you'll be penalized if you do. However, often times you don't know exactly what the judge means and you'll screw up.

 

--all these are MY opinion, anyway.

 

The GBA Lunar is a bit different I hear, but not a great deal. Someone who played it should probably be able to tell you.

 

Possibly future purchase: Metroid Zero Mission-remake of the original Metroid given a Super Metroid-style treatment.

 

DEFINITE MUST BUY--for me if I don't get the PS2 version--Metal Slug 3. Coming in December. An amazingly fun side-scrolling shooting game. It's kind of like Contra, but more fun, with cuter/better art, and even more firepower at your disposal. Blow lots of stuff up--more awesome for multiplayer.

Yes I am aware of Ayami Kojima being the current CV artist, its just Belmonts were never bishomen. Characters like Alucard and Soma arent Belmonts so they are understandable, I just think they could have given Juste a much better design without being a girl (see Julius).

Simon looks bishy in Chronicles, though.

 

Maybe no Metal Slug 3--hope it's still coming to GBA.

I wouldnt want to see a port of 3 on the gba, the measly little thing couldnt handle it.

 

Just hope MS 3 is released outside the Japan, or mod your console and import it like I did, because its really worth it.

 

Also pardon my ignorance but when exactly was a port of MS 3 announced for the GBA? I thought MS advance was still due…
