Pheonix Gamma Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 So my parents (my mom, mostly) are forcing me to come on one last family vacation, even though the place we're going (Cape Cod) has been our destination 80% of the vacations I've atended, and that I can be legally left home alone. Bleh. Anyways, I'll probably finish Tales of Phantasia on the ride there, and I've played almosgt every worthwhile DS game (in the US. I'd love to import Jump Superstars) Any GBA reccomendations? I get through games really quickly, so something lengthy would be great. I don't have many GBA games, so reccomend whatever you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowgoten Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Dragonball (the very new one just made) it's a side scrolling beat em up with a really good fighting engine in it as well. Gunstar heroes Megaman battle network 6 can't think of anymore at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MistakenEvil Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I don't have very many games myself, but I would highly recommend the last two CastleVania games for it: Harmony of Dissonance and Aria of Sorrow. Excellent platformers very worthy of being in the series. Both Metroid games were pretty good, too (Fusion and Zero Mission). Hope this helps. ^.^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtsmarty Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Megaman battle network 6 Yes I agree with this one. I recommend Gregar, just because of Slashman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheonix Gamma Posted July 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 GREGar is a nice name Hmmm...any other reccomendations? I wanna get a good list before I go to bed. I got work from 8-12, and then I leave at 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtsmarty Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Megaman Zero 3 & 4 They kew... and there's an extra armour in Megaman ZX if you have Megaman Zero 3/4 plugged into your DS too... Not saying you'd get Megaman ZX or anything, but if you did... there's extra incentive to get MMZ3/4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheonix Gamma Posted July 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 ah, forgot about 3 and 4. I played the first two, and I heard 4 was the finale...hmmm... I'm trading in a DS game with my Gamestop card, so maybe I can get both... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckythemutant Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Yeah, I recommend the megaman games...but thats because I'm a 2D scroller whore. You can try the old advance Mario games though, and HEY the Wario games are fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1LT Worm Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Fire Emblem (both of 'em) I have the one with Roy in it, but it's in Japanese. Mario vs. Donkey Kong If it's a remake of the Donkey Kong for GB, it should be good. If not, go to used store, and buy it. Along with an old Gameboy if all you have is a DS. [Note, NOT Donkey Kong Country.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheonix Gamma Posted July 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I liked the DKC games...my dad and I had crazy gaming sessions back in the day... I have a GB pocket, but I rarely ever use it for anything other than Link's Awakening... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1LT Worm Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I'm not saying DKC isn't a fun game. I used to play it all the time on the SNES, but Donkey Kong is an entirely different game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ila Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 The only GBA stuff I've played is Pokemon. So use your own conclusions. Super Mario Advace 2: Super Mario World is a good choice for some classic action. Or the one with Super Mario 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tentril Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Megaman Zero 3 and 4 are quite good, but if you want lengthy go with Fire Emblem or Advance Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rael0505 Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Mega Man Zero 4, from what I've played, is the easiest of the series. It's actually pretty disappointing in that sense. I guess they were trying to make up for Mega Man Zero 3's difficulty. They're both worth checking out, though. Fire Emblem and Advance Wars are also good.

Pheonix Gamma Posted July 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 MMZ2 kicked my ass. There was this one level that I spend hours on. Then I played hard mode. I didn't know you couldn't get any armor in hard move, so I played through that in vain. I kinda want to just get to the conclusion, though. Would I be able to understand Z4 if I skip Z3? I beat the first Fire Emblem. I spent long nights on that game's 3 stories. I didn't like the second one, though. I didn't like the characters much, hated the music, and just got tired of it. Anywho, I'm going to work in about an hour, so I'll have to see what they have in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eraysor Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Advance Wars 2 is awesome, although I prefer Dual Strike for the DS. Harvest Moon is also great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1LT Worm Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Pokémon Leaf Green brought back some memories of old for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorSatyr Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 I'd recommend Yggdra Union if it were out in the U.S (doesn't come out still next month). So instead: Pokemon Leaf Green, Gunstar Super Heroes (on HARD), Advance Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rael0505 Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 You'll be able to understand MMZ4, yeah. I haven't gotten past one level of MMZ3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eraysor Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 Battle Network is way better than Zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Battle Network is way better than Zero. If you like RPGs, yeah. I never did. I got hooked on MMBN though. I always did love its battle system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
