i have one and i have Tony hawk 2 and Castlevania. Castlevania is not that bad it like an RPG . Tony Hawks is like the playstation version but is in locked view controls took a while but once you get the hang of it you do some pretty good moves. I wouldn't mind getting mario kart looks really good and sonic the hedgehog

Mario kart is awesome, especially if you played the super nintendo one. Mario advance is ok, but a bit boring (same as mario 2 on nes), wario land advance is really good but WAY too short, let someone else buy it, then borrow it.

are the graphics really that good because im giving some serious thought to getting one of these things since there some really good games available for it! like spiderman and mario cart etc... plus linking them and playing mulitplayer is a bonus

i'm thinking of buying one, but i just don't know how I can convince myself to pay the same price for a GBA game, as I pay for a 5 disc PC game...

Is your PC a notebook?? Thats the difference - obviously! You can take a GBA anywhere... but still I hear ya... its a bit rich to pay that much when you can also get PS2 games for the same price...

GBA kicks ass.

Games I have:

Mario Advance - I love it...can never get enough of the classics.
Mario Kart - Awesome...so much fun, just like the SNES version.
Rayman - great...superb graphics but gameplay can get a little repetitive.
Bomberman - addictive as hell.


Do NOT get Ready to Rumble 2, it sucks donkeys IMO.

I am desperately waiting for DOOM (yes, the one by Id Software, and it will be in proper 3D like the original), Street Fighter 2: super duper duper hyper turbo edition or something, WORMS, and Advance Wars.

Joe.
