    Your #1 on GBA?

    I vote for Yoshi's Island (Mario Advance 3). What's yours?

    Nice one. Didn't know this one, but it's ranked #50 out of 495 on gamespot. High praise indeed. Now I'm off to find it cheap, Uchida-san!

    I reckon Advance Wars is probably the best as well.

    Although I guess a pokemon game is probably the best seller?

    Don't pay too much attention to that ladder, short stuff.

    Remember what Shakespeare said - peple r stupids.

    Also try Golden Sun, Metroid Fusion & Zero Mission, Mario Vs Donkey Kong, Zelda: Minish Cap, Final Fantasy III (VI), Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, and of course all of the old SNES classics (Mario World, Zelda: Link To The Past, Mario 3, etc).

    Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts as well - if you fancy something thats as hard as something really hard.

    I would also recommend these games. You got a good list there Stewart! Final Fantasy III (VI) is amazing. I wish I had enough hours in the day to come back to this game. Got so close to completing this game on the SNES back in 1998. Very tempted to return back to it.

    Golden Sun - if you loved any of the RPGs from the 16bit era, then this is pretty decent - with a compelling story and all in all, a good game that thankfully doesnt require you to give up half your life to complete...

    Re: Your #1 on GBA?

    It's very old (think it was a release game) but I have to say the GBA version of bomberman remains one of the sharpest and best versions of that game i've ever seen. Even now few games can rival 4 player bomberman.

    I'll single out one of Stewart's picks, Minish Cap is fantastic (if you like that sort of thing) and if you can get your hands on it, get a copy of WarioWare Twisted!

    Rhythm Tengoku, just played this recently. Awesome game. Only in Japanese though, some parts are a bit hard to follow but brilliant game none the less.

    Advance Wars 2 - black hole rising. It just turned my 8 hour flight into minutes. Sooo addictive.

    The Golden Sun series without a doubt, it was, quite simply, a perfect RPG.

    Re: Your #1 on GBA?

    golden sun was quite good.

    another good one was dragon warrior monsters

    there was also shining souls II (i think thats what i was called)

    which are more or less my top three, i have to say, i despise more or less all the Nintendo internal franchises (mario etc)
