    Default What to play on the GBA?

    I have just finished playing Saberwulf & it was a lot of fun. Now, what game should I play next. Any suggetions? It can be any type of game from any region, any suggetions appreciated :-)
    I have been playing Zelda Link to the Past the last few days & have also been playing Mario Kart.

    Well, If you like Zelda LTTP, Minish Cap is just superb. I'd also reccomend Metroid Fusion and if you're an RPG fan:

    - Golden Sun
    - Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald

    And if you like tatics RPGs:

    - Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
    - Advance Wars

    Double Dragon Advance
    Bubble Bobble Old & New
    Zelda Minish Cap
    Ninja Five-O
    Super Ghouls N Ghosts
    These cartridges are dirty as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!

    I'm not a huge RPG fan, but I will look into Metroid Fusion! I probably should mention this is for when I'm commution to/from work so nothing too deep or nothing you cant save as & when!

    Double Dragon Advance sounds good as does Bubble Bobble old & new (this is one I was thinking of getting)

    I got into the GBA late. I am currently playing "Wario Ware Inc" and "Advance Wars 2". Previous games that I have played are: "Advance Wars".

    Default Castlevania

    You should play some of the Castlevania games for the GBA.

    Circle of the Moon and Aria of Sorrow are my favorites.
    Harmony of Dissonance is also good.

    I recently picked up One Piece. Not a fighter like the PS2 and GC games, but very good beat 'em up. I suggest beat 'em up fans pick this one up.

    Yes, I suggest the Castlevania games as well. The Metroid games rock, and, of course, classic Mario stuff is always good.

    I know you said you're not an RPG guy, but Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis is one of the top strategy games EVER.

    I wasn't aware there was anything else available on GBA other than Wario Ware Inc. Maybe it's because that's all I play

    Here are a few games that are definitely worth your time:

    Castlevania: All three of them
    Astro Boy:Omega Factor (this game rocks!)
    Metroid: Zero Mission
    Metroid Fusion
    Advance Wars I+II
    Fire Emblem I+II
    Mario and Luigi: Superstar Sage
    Final Fantasy: Dawn of Souls
    Golden Sun I+II
    Zelda: The Minish Cap

    Generally, before you go out and spend your hard-earned cash for a new GBA game, you can always try them out on an emulator to see if you like them or not.

    I mgonna say Riveria. Its an awsome RPG, and despite the way it plays, its really fun. The characters have alot of personality, and plenty of interaction for character development. Battles are unique and fun, and the story is interesting.
    Give it a try.

    Sonic Advance is a blast.

    Anyone else hear that Konami are to release a 2 in 1 Castlevania cartridge for the GBA? That'd be sweet.
