I'm referring to the "Asian Version" that is being offered on eBay, Here's an auction. <a href=http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=48454&item=8181358435&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW>Click Here</a>

the one in that auction is not asian. it's a UK release. i bought a complete copy off dreamTR. i was previously using GB super scrabble for my on-the-go scrabble fix and was entirely unsatisfied. the GBA release you're reffering to is... *gulp* radical.
i love it. it's the perfect pocket version of scrabble. ten CPU skill levels to choose from mean that you'll find your best opponent easily, and be able to move up through more difficult opponents as you get better. you can also play yourself against one really good CPU opponent, one horribly bad CPU opponent, one mid-field opponent, etc. to more closely simulate a real game of scrabble. there's also a couple of word building games and solo scrabble too. if you're bilingual there are french, spanish, and german scrabble games on the cart too (you could plausibly play a really easy opponent on french mode to try to improve your own french, etc.).
highly recommended. i usually play every night in bed to wind down before i fall asleep.

The illegal bootleg, you mean.

yeah, i should have added that if it's a GBA game from ebay it's probably a boot. but it does come from UK as opposed to Vietnam etc. so it could be legit. tough to tell.

Hmmm, I may wait until 4/12/05 so I can rent the Scrabble Blast game. From what I understand, it has a "anagram round" to it, and I'm a fool for anagrams. :)

What version of Scrabble is being released on 4/12? The Ubisoft version or the Jack of All Games version? ign.com says its Ubi, and funcoland.com says its "Jack's". I'm a bit confused.... :hmm:

anyone know if you can save in any version of this cuz it would be worth it for me if you can save it, but not if you have to sit down and play a whole game at once, same with monopoly games

I just received mine yesterday, and I totally agree! That's for the recommendation! :)

Nope, I tried, but it won't save games.
