Alex Rider : Storm Breaker GBA version

Advantages: Story(only for the fans of Alex Rider)
Disadvantages: Lenghty, not so good graphics, same boring things to be done over and over again.

...give it a try. I havent played the game on the Game Boy Advance, but I have a computer version of it called Visual Boy Advance, hence I just download all the games of GBA and play them on the computer. I had read the book first, loved it, watched the movie, loved it, hence I downloaded the game as well, didnt love it that much. The game isnt exactly that tough to play, but you'll get used to it. In terms of graphics, its not that great, its not even equal to the clarity of Harry Potter games. The sound is only enjoyable as you play the game, but the game is almost endless, especially to those who dont even know who Alex Rider is. As in terms of difficulty, its fairly easy to master, just that you're supposed to do the same things over and over again. So I just want to end by saying that this product should not be bought by anyone who...

Review of Alex Rider: Stormbreaker (GBA)

GBA Advances to another level

Advantages: Longeivity, Nice Graphics, Pure Gameplay
Disadvantages: The hours you'll waste on it

.... THey also show the battle scenes, which get boring after a while, but they can be turned off. The sound is quite good, best thru a pair of headphones. Playability and gameplay is up there with Tetris, this game will also last you ages. Overall, this game will last you ages, it is gaming excellence, part with your cash and go get the GBA's most original and addictive game. S...

Review of Advance Wars (GBA)

Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire-best GBA's RPG game

Advantages: very detailed and colorful
Disadvantages: somewhat difficult/complex

...I have played pokemon's GBA games long long time ago, since the version of red/blue and then yellow followed by crystal/gold and now it's sapphire/ruby. All of them are kind of RPG games-role playing games, begin with main character, can be a boy or a girl. Main character is named by you and you will control him/ her through our the game. In this version-Ruby/Sapphire, after chosing your character, you will then be introduced all the instructions about the game and introduction about the game's world( It's different from our world though^^) by a professor a called Birch who is studying about Pokemon(pocket monster). Afterward, you'll have to face a difficult situation, chosing one of three Pokemon in three Pokeball to rescue the professor from wild-dog Pokemon named Poochyena.Those three are Treeko, Mudkip, Torchic which comes from three...

Review of Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire (GBA)

... GBA ...

Advantages: Cheap, good range of games, second hand games readily available cheaply, good battery_life, backward compatibility
Disadvantages: Not hi-tech these days, can be tricky getting the screen in the right position

...on Amazon for about ?65 new, though availability of the GBA new will no doubt reduce as Nintendo try to promote their newer models. I got mine (er? my wife's, I mean? of course?) second hand for ?60 including 3 games (Mario Kart Super Circuit, Road to Westlemania - well it was thrown in for free, I didn't actually want it - and the Gameboy Colour version of Super Mario Bros). Which leads me to another two pros? 1 - Backward compatibility - if you have a load of Gameboy / Gameboy colour games already you don't need to throw them away - you can still play them on GBA. They won't be enhanced in any way of course but you can still play them. 2 - There's a thriving second-hand game market out there for GBA, which is just as well since new games range from about ?15-?35, which I think is a bit steep for a handheld game. Multiplayer option...

Review of Nintendo GameBoy Advance

Mario returns to the GBA

Advantages: Great graphics, Wario, fantastic racing sim
Disadvantages: Few

...Why did you buy your Gameboy Advance? Was it to look cool? Was it because it looked, in the words of Jamie Oliver “Pukka” or was it because you wanted to play the best games? Well, if you wanted to look cool, go and buy some new clothes and listen to hip hop (because it is modern day cool), if you wanted it because it looked like a Jamie Oliver word, get a life. BUT, if you wanted it for great games, you sure have made a great investment. Speaking of great games and great investments- Mario Kart. A super GBA game and a fantastic investment. You can’t go wrong in buying this, that is if you haven’t already used your brain and bought it. Let’s take a closer look. Mario Kart Advance is just basically an update of a extremely popular SNES version. All your favourite Nintendo stars are here: Wario...

Review of Golden Sun 2: The Lost Age (GBA)

GBA SP

Advantages: Comfortable and FUN!
Disadvantages: Needs more games

...I've had my Gameboy Advance SP for a few years now and whilst others have replaced theirs with a Nintendo DS, I'm still happy to play mine, although it is becoming increasingly difficult to get any decent games for it without delving into the shady world of ebay trading. I was given the 'Mario Limited Edition' version of the GBASP as a gift. The bottom section (where the button are) is silver and the top (where the screen is) is red. When closed, the red part has a large red 'M' on it to signify Mario, I assume. I was impressed with the way the GBASP looked. It was much better looking than its predecessor, the original GBA, which was wider and did not fold. The screen is large and clear and displays the gameplay very well. The unit as a whole has a sturdy feel and the fact that, at least four years later, mine is still working...

Review of Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town (GBA)

GBA Super Power

Advantages: Protects the screen
Disadvantages: If you have a GBA is it worth it

...The new Gameboy Advance has been released ! This new version is better than ever before with new features and a cool new look to drive you and the world wild. The Console: The GBA SP or Special Project as it is called is not an entire new Gameboy it is the original bestselling Nintendo Gameboy Advance repackaged to make it even better and easier to use for all us gamers.

Playing in the dark would be...
