Pros: Incredible Amount of Replay Value, Awesome Multiplayer, Big On Fun
Cons: The Amount of Batteries You'll Spend While Playing This Game
Summary: It was around in the Fall 2001 that Nintendo released a curious little game called Advance Wars, few people had actually heard of this game and so it didn't exactly sell very well. My favorite gaming site gave this game a 9.9 out of 10 rating, ... read more

Pros: Very fun, it is. There are many Characters.
Cons: The music could be better perhaps.

Cons: a bit repetitive after a while, music can be annoying

Cons: No cons here. This game is just too good.

Pros: all the fun of war, without the propaganda
Cons: only 18 missions; tough to find
Summary: One of the greatest virtues of this entertainment medium is realized whenever a game is both "simple" and "addictive". For a title to be simplistic, it must have the virtue of being readily accessible. For it to keep the player's attention, it must ... read more

Pros: Makes you think
Cons: Difficulty (see full)
Timing weird (a day for and army to march)

Pros: A solid strategy title on the GBA, at last!
Interesting units and realistic story
Cons: Levels last a LOOONG time.
Multiplayer is a bit wonky.
Too much information at times.
